Quote:Our solution in 1993-4 was to scale up the breastplate.. and all plates to fit the guy the seg was being made for. The only times we were able to make a seg close to the Corbridge seg breastplate dimensions was for young small guys.. 16-17-18 years old... with chest sizes in the 28" - 32" range... and with pencil necks. I believe that our first seg was for a 50" chest.
This is not credible. A neck opening of 2in (5cm) wide will only fit a neck with a circumference of 6.2 in (15.7cm). This is too small for my 5 year old son who has a neck width of 3.25in (8.25cm) and a circumference of 10.25in (26cm). This is not a matter of these historical findings being for “smallâ€
