I wanted to let everyone know that I have not stopped my love for this project however, I am taking a break. I had sent an email to the National Museum of Ireland and was waiting for a response. I finally received it when I had been side tracked by an amazing story...which I will start blogging about shortly (this might lead to a Pentathlon entry). I never thought I would say those words again...haha. I did want to give an update regarding the pin.
Length 10.09cm (pin head to shank)
Length of shank only 9.33cm
Width close to tip/pointed end .17cm
Width at top of shank .44cm
Width mid way along the shank .47cm
Width at pin head .66cm
I will continue with this as time goes on. I do want to make a replica because it is one of the coolest things I have seen. However, please keep an eye for my new rabbit hole...it is pretty cool.
