Well, Lady Miriam, I would take 3 or 4 non-electric machines (1 treadle, 1 or 2 handcranks, and 1 or 2 spinner-equipped heads. Let the students drag in anything else....don’t forget your oil and tools.......
That ought to “harken them back to the days”........
Sounds like fun.

Ok, the acronym threw me. I've heard of the SCA, just by the full name. I wouldn't mind attending on of their events, sounds like fun. Miriam your event sounds like a fun festival too-especially the pewter casting class. I hadn't even thought of lower temperature melting metals for casting. It has some possibilities.

My "dream" goal is to find a low temp melting metal that is gold/brass in color. Good luck... I have even met with a pewter foundry, THEY have no recipe for a low temp melt yellow metal either
