Hello!
I just registered and this is my first post, although I've been lurking in this site for some time now!
I intend to make a muscled thorax, roughly based on the examples from the Met and the British museum (sorry don't have the links for the pictures around, but I guess you know the ones I mean ). I have finished the designs and started the shaping but I have no idea how to make the fastenings since I can't find any pictures showing the sides. I have seen rings attached to some thorakes, but I don't know how these would work. Would the hinges used on the Manning Imperial thorax be authentic?
Any info or pics would be most welcome!
