Taking your measurements for your custom-fit snath is simple - just take out your favorite tape measure and provide the following 3 measurements:
- Overall height (with shoes on).
Ground to hip - the head or ball of the femur not your waist. Still not sure how to take this measurement? See this video (~1mb) - Elbow to outstretched middle finger (the cubit).
Not sure if you've taken your correct measurements? Read more about fitting a scythe to your body, see workshop 5.
