Ave Crispus,<br>
<br>
Thanks, I think I've got it. I'm going to rebuild my harness along those lines.<br>
<br>
One thing I found that is when carrying the Furca with the Junk. scuta strap, is that the furca rests across your should, and lines up along the top of the scuta, with the ditty bag and loculus hanging over the back. This has the result of stabilizing both, allowing a fairly handsfree march. If you so wish, and are a pathetically out of shape as I am, your right is free to use the pilum as a walking stick. The pull forward of the Furca setup also assists in levering the bottom of the scutum out and further from your legs.<br>
<br>
I've never had cause or opportunity to march with a cloak on, but i'm sure someday I will. Then I can babble on about that<br>
<br>
Derrek, I'd still love to see some photos of the rig you use!<br>
<br>
