Interested
Puff, I too am interested in that tip. And thanks for the boost in my confidence that my translation wasn't too far off, you did, as Andrew mentioned, add much that wouldn't be apparent from just a literal translation.
My apologies for not contacting you while in Thailand, between serious computer problems and getting a house set-up in Lop Buri ... well next time I'll come more prepared I promise.
As for the pictures of the swords of at the national museum. About two years(?) ago Khun Jarunee, one of the curators there was kind enough to take them down and have them photographed for us. She put them in a data base program called ACDsee which I am unfamiliar with (but I got it to print). I've been meaning to get the provenance she supplied translated, but it is once again another project that has been put to the rear. I can't promise that it'll get done anytime soon as I left the disk at the house in Lop Buri. Ian has a copy though (hint hint).
Khun Dang
