So you want to build a castle, eh? Who doesn’t? I mean, after all, most people who are reading articles about Medieval times have at least a passing fantasy of living in their own castle. And hey, I’m included! What a wonderful thing, to design, build, and live in your very own castle. If I win the lottery tonight . . . yeah, I think building a castle will be very near the top of things to do with the gazillions of dollars that would fill my coffers. And let’s say I did come into a substantial amount of money . . . where would I suddenly find the skills needed to build such a wonderful project?\
Well thanks to the internet, some of those resources are readily available. Let me introduce you to “An Old Castle Shop“, a website that provides some wonderful lists of internet resources available for just this very project. In fact, they include a link to a group of people who are doing just that – building their very own castle! Sweet!
The Castle Builders' Favorite Castle
From stonecutting and masonry work to timber framing, the folks at An Old Castle Shop provide some truly useful links. If you’re interested in the Medieval Castle Builders Project click here.
If you don’t hear much from me for a few days, it could be that tonight was the night!!! Or it could be that I’m just too depressed from not seeing the winning numbers . . .again. *sighs*
