Hi y all.
This is outside on our balcony. The light bulbs need to be replaced.
I can’t find a single key or screwdriver that catches into whatever is in the tiny holes. Any ideas? Is it just “pop the glass lid with a flathead?”.
Also unsure what light bulbs to buy but that I can ask Bauhaus I think
Hi everyone. I searched far and wide and I could only find.....too many links.
My problem:
I have a nice, i think, spes 800 N with foam padding (removable) , shoulder shells (outside, arming points) + gorget + clamshell gloves (old SPES) + vambraces. All VERY protective. But....
Even though the jacket was sent with some free tailoring, it is still incredibly stiff, hot, which is most jackets I guess, and moves against me. I cut a nice figure with it, but what the heck, it seems like a baggier, more abundant fit, while less aesthetic, would actually allow me to move. I can do forward motions but anything like a high mittlehau , twerchhau or an oberhau or a hanging guard and my field of vision disappears behind the sleeves, shoulders, mask bib. And it feels lie I am lifting myself up, not just the sword.
Un-jacketed I am a nimble person, tall (193) and have good legs and general athleticism. In-jacket, I am a tank that tanks hits, good if it were Agincourt, horrible when sparring
I was hoping that removing the foam pads, and washing it, might help a bit. No results.

Problem is whenever you click, the websites are just crap.
What I would like to try
It seems even tournaments allow for a 350 + rigid plastrons, and as I said I have all the other rigid protections.
What 350 N jacket would you recommend for this scenario? (or any other recommendations). If you do have a recommendation, can you just drop the link to the actual product? I can buy the plastron separately on Faites d'Armes. I need something not just lighter, but also more breathable, roomier, flexier. (are these actual English words? maybe not...)
CHEERS!!!

Hi! My daughter, 8 year old, loves playing the violin. She is very good at solfeggio, loves pizzicato, but struggles with the needed dexterity for the actual bow work (kind of super important when playing violin I’m sure we agree !!!). She’s now at positions 1 and 2 study (erste /zweitere finger on the susi & eddi workbook, if it tells you anything). She does have a teacher who is an amazing player and instructor (and very patient)
Any exercises or rather websites or channels you would recommend we follow (or just exercises to practice) in the time in between lessons? She does practice daily but, you know, she’s very young, this is not going to become her career (I suspect) and she goes to school full time (8 to 5) so there is not all the time in the world to practice 🎶🎶🎶. Thanks!!!!
