Corbridge type Segmentata hinges cast or folded sheet?
#2
They are made of thin brass sheet (about 6mm) folded double completely. Most reconstructions are made with thicker material for more strength.<br>
The brass of the originals seem to be stronger than our of the shelf hobby brass. It was probably also heat treated to make it harder.<br>
