Shield bosses

Shield bosses to make your own shield

To make your own shield, you need wood, a shield boss, raw leather or other reinforcement around the wood, nails or rivets, and possibly a leather belt. The advantage of making your own shield is that you can determine how it will look and decorate it as desired.
