Newstead segmentata question
#2
Looks good so far Martin IMHO...

Curious as to why you would attach the hinge hardware prior to shaping the plates?
I could understand temporarily fixing them with quick-detach kleeco's or even bolts to hold things in place for testing... Your choice to rivet them prior to shaping the plates may very well cause some serious stress on your hinges when you execute the bends and may make the neat edge alignments you now have go a bit askew. Hopefully not though.
