The pineapple fruit is a symbol of welcome and hospitality, which is how I earned my business name, 'Pineapple.'

I have been doing historical re-enactments most of my life, and for the last fifteen years I have made it my living.

Primarily I am a beeswax candle maker and sutler at rendezvous across the Midwest. Metal Rock Inc. was my preferred vendor for pewter charms as they were made in the USA; When they decided to retire and were looking to sell their workshop, I thought..."why not?" and together Ron and I bought all the equipment and molds and moved it up to Wahkon, Minnesota.
