As Maria del Norte pointed out, the instructions in the The Calligrapher's Handbook (editted by Heather Child) are good for real vellum/parchment. But for pergamenata, I'm assuming we're referring to that beast known otherwise as "spam vellum," yes? Spam vellum, the stuff that's been made from vellum discards is made essentially "vellum mache" of two layers bonded by an animal or casein derived aglutenant (= fancy word for glue, though in a paint engineering sense, this has a more broad meaning than what we all think of as glue - but that's a different tangent altogether... :) So think on this for a second: if you get dried and formed paper mache wet, it falls apart. Why? Because it's the aglutenant that holds it together, rather than the much stronger fibers+aglutenant of regular paper. The wetting dissolves the aglutenant, and since the fibers have little to no role in keeping the paper mache together, you get a big soaking sopping mess. Well, the same thing applies to spam vellum. It's the aglutenant that holds it together - the fibers are neither long enough, nor are they aligned at steep angles anymore with respect to the writing surface (as is the case with vellum, raw hide and leather) to play any sort of role in keeping it together if it's been soaked. If you remember that spam vellum is really vellum mache then it's easy to remember that too much water is a bad thing for it. I have never personally attempted to stretch or flatten spam vellum like you can with real vellum - but Graidhne (if she's not too busy to read this list at the moment) can tell you a few choice stories along those lines ;-) I've had a great deal of luck in flattening spam vellum in the same manner as rolled paper - a gradual unrolling of it using weights, either on my drafting table or by tacking it to a wall along the top edge with weights (usually fishing sinkers) attached to the bottom edge with those big black binder clips. I've also resorted to using a paper press, when I'm lucky enough to have one handy. ttfn Therasia =================================================================== To unsubscribe from this list, send email to with a blank Subject: line and unsubscribe scribes in the body of the message.

Personally, I'm up for whatever someone can document and enjoy doing. If you were going to do a scroll in this manner, I'd suggest attaching some documentation to it.
