Sir Wolf:
A+ man

Sir Brian:
OMG that articulation is awesome! I was just asking Sir James about his arms he just got from you and how that whole rotating vambrace designed worked.  :)

It Does make me wonder if you could adapt the same concept to splinted vambraces?  ???

Allan Senefelder:
I doubt it Brian, the slot that the rivet travels through needs to be a smooth even curve, the splints don't provide a smooth curvature due to thier being a series of plates rather than one homogenious plate and the somewhat maleable character of the leather may not help that out either. Something like an articualting plate bracer, lames and elbows attached to a splinted rebrace would be about the closest, or seperate splinted braced, seperate 5 lame elbows and rebace would be about the closest you could get I think.

Yes this part is what I was visualizing as the only viable design. Sounds like it would be a first and that only has its own compelling appeal.  ;)
