Sir William:
Glad I checked here first!!! The things we go through to look good I tell ya...lol
Sir Patrick:
Here's a link on tailoring maille. It's written for butted maille, but the same idea for riveted. Toward the bottom there's a diagram on where to put the gussets on the body.

Sir Wolf:
WOW you knowhow long it has been since i've seen that web page? that brings back memories for sure
Sir William:
That's awesome...looks real time consuming too. Anyone have a ballpark figure as to how long this might take? I just need to alter the arms so they taper in rather than bellow out.
Sir Edward:
Tapering sleeves goes pretty quickly. If you're just closing up the seam with existing butt-links after taking out a section, it doesn't take too long. I tapered my half-sleeves in under an hour I think.
