Building a seg: width of gridle plates and overlap
#1
I'm experimenting with cardboard mockups for a replacement torso section for my Corbridge A segmentata (8 gridle plates). Matt Amt says to use 2 and 1/4 inch wide gridle plates, but for my torso, this seems to make a torso section that is too short (I'm 6'2" tall). 2 and 1/2 inch wide plates seem to work better. I've been assuming a 3/8 inch vertical overlap. Too little, or too much? This is what my Indian made seg appears to use. <p></p><i></i>
