Segmentata Advice

[Matthew Amt]

Looks great so far! I don't use washers between the rivet head and the leather, generally speaking, and don't have much problem. Certainly you need a washer for any rivet that is being placed from the outside, like a dome-headed one, and being peened inside over a leather. For documentation, the Corbridge pieces did not tend to use washers between rivet head and leather, but the later Stillfried girdle sections did (either one square washer per rivet, or a larger rectangular one punched with 2 holes for 2 rivets).

Keep at it!
