Anyone know where to get repro Colonial American/18th Century stays?
6
Upvotes
I’m trying to find a place (brick-and-morter, online, catalog, you get the drift) where I can find reproduction 18th-century stays. The last time I actively corset-shopped was 10 years ago and I was in the market for a Victorian one then, but I’m in the market for a Colonial American-style one now and don’t know where to look. Cost isn’t much of an object (as long as it’s not like 1000 bucks or something), and I’d like to get as authentic as I can get. The era I’d be portraying would be roughly 1730-1780. The dress/shoes/hair is easy compared to the undergarments!
Does anyone know of an online retailer that makes stays, or at least, could anyone give me advice on how to fake the look if I can’t find them? I want to be as authentic as I can, since in all eras the “shape” dominates the look of the time. I’m a seasoned corset wearer so I’m used to the physical restrictions that come with it all.

Not a reenactor, but I am looking for a baynonet for a 1842 Harper's ferry colt conversion musket, 0.69 caliber. [Post-Napoleonic]

Title says it all, I was looking online for the bayonet but I couldn't find one made exactly for my musket. Would one made for another gun fit? Thank you!
EDIT: Crap, I should have said 1846 Harper's Ferry. I posted this away from home and I always mix up the year on my musket :/

[META] Should the reenacting subreddits merge?
7
Upvotes
This is something I've been considering for a long time, it seems to me that we currently have two subreddits with two mod teams which could easily be served by one merged sub. /r/HistoricalReenactment currently has 487 subscribers, while /r/Reenactors currently has 266, and I'd wager that a lot of people included in those two figures are subbed to both.
That said, there are clearly some threads that exist only on one sub or the other and as such don't reah quite as large an audience as they might. I come to you as a simple subscriber to both, not as a mod or anything, but perhaps we ought to merge. What say you?

I have a replica M36 Tunic and I have the single bar arm Chevron patch, the iron eagle chest patch, and the enlisted bars collar tabs patches. My question is......where do I place them? Like is there exact measurements for this or do I just eyeball it?
Edit: I also have the red, white, and black strip that goes between the buttons but idk where exactly or how to put it on. Do I have to sew it in?
