I have made a few Musculata in my time and have connected the front and back useing the hinge and pin method, however at times ( infact most times ) one needs the help of another to hold the pieces together or to insert the pins.
I did change the system to a strap and buckle method for the late Douglas Arnold, this was after he had left the second augusta group but still did talks and needed to fit the armour on his own. I had to fit tounges on the inside of the back piece with slots on the inside of the front piece which held the two pieces together very well and stopped any sideways movement when the buckles were latched up together this system worked very well for him indeed.
