Ave Theodosius,<br>
<br>
My suggestion would be to attach the two layers of pteruges to the subarmalis, and the layer of short lapets to the edge of the armor. That way the lapets are always nicely lined up with the edge at the right length in the right spot. My experience with pteruges indicates that they have tendency to go where they will. Our Praefectus Julius built his on that system and it worked very well. I wish I had a picture of him to post for you.<br>
