A really good idea. I need information on working with organic matierals like, rattan, coir, grass, rush and other fibers. Where to get them and in small enough quantity. An item may be incomplete and vunerable just for the lack of some cordage, which would have always been replace as and when needed in the original enviroment. I have had some success with rehilting sabers and other sword fittings; would be happy to pass on any information that might be helpful.

Keep the ideas coming .

Best,

This a great idea, there are lots of posts on this forum that contain lots of good information. However a consolidation of good info would be time saving.
