Step 7Assembly 3-the waist and tassets
as this sits right now, it only comes down to the bottom of my ribs. so I've made another row of 4 columns, again 8 plates tall, then attached it to the bottom of the existing breastplate.
Once it's all attached it's time to test fit it. in this case it comes down to just below my belt buckle, and more importantly, wont let me bend over properly. This problem is solved by putting a split up the center from the bottom to my bellybutton.
The split is done by unlinking one row of rings from the strand of maille, then re-weaving the 2 half strands into full strands.
once you have the split in place it's time to add the tassets. I'm making them by adding 2 more columns of 8 onto each side of the split.
simple as that, put it all together and you have your breastplate. congratulations your half finished.
