can we take a second to ponder on the fact that a kids movie did lady armor better than the entire film and comic industry

guess who i’m talking about

did you guess? Well you’re WRONG because it’s Susan Pevensie

They gave her light armor, appropriate for a small archer:chainmail, an arm brace, chest plate, and a light skirt she can easily run around murderizing dudes in the face in

her hair is also only loose in the promo pictures because Susan is busy not dying because her hair was flying into her eyeballs so she braids that stuff back

her mail shirt is also loose enough that it doesn’t impede her arm movements it’s almost like she’s dressed for a fight wow

I like the pinks and purples under hersweet leather armor here, because you don’t have to be masculine to shoot someone in the face

Stool’s done! Walnut legs, Maple seat, Cherry wedges. The tenons of the legs clamp the mortises of two pieces of the seat each, which in turn hold two legs in place. Then the wedges lock it all in. Fully flatpack, fully knockdown, zero hardware, zero glue.

[nostalgicimpulsivity]

Soon, guys. Soon.

Capstone Project in the works. Flatpack furniture with no hardware or glue. More to come as it develops.

My kids are probably the last generation to be able to identify this on sight. That’s weird.
