I am actually working on a whole castle village's worth of custom models at • the
moment... and here are the ideas I'm developing:

Blacksmith and other workshops:  the local landlord usually gave a charter • for
such essential duties as a Blacksmith, fletcher, butcher, baker, carpenter,
hobbler, ferrier, etc.  These "professionals" would be granted land for • their
workshop and usually would dwell in the same building.

   OK, I got out the dictionary, and still don't know what some of the words
you used are.  What is ferrier?  Hobbler?

Adventurer's shop:  While not of any historical value, why not have one of
those shops where the young adventurer get's equiped to seek fortune and • fame
and get those necessary items like suits of chainmail, magic wands, and the • all
important Scroll of Healing.

   Is that similar to a modern day health insurance policy?

I'm still working on the designs and instructions, so it may be several • months
before any of my sets are available, but you can view some of my previous
castle creations on my web page and I hope to have my prototype models • posted
soon as well.


  It sounds like you have good plans, can't wait to see some more stuff!

(...) (just guessing) Typos? ;) A farrier is someone who shoes horses. A cobbler is someone who shoes people. I think that's the two professions he was mentioning. James (URL) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) A ferrier is someone who maintains or operates a ferry - fairly important work if your town is located near or on a river. Hobbler? No idea. A cobbler is a shoemaker, but that's the only similar sounding word I can think of. (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)
