Are you speaking of Silk Roads design armoury?
Or Templar Bob's Lamallar page?

You'll find it at
http://www.levantia.com.au/ - Tim changed his address.
I made a klivanion to his design, but with "offset" plates in adjoining rows (like in scale armour), per some ikons I brought to Tims attention. He kindly worked out a lacing pattern for me, and I'm very happy with the results - see
http://www.geocities.com/egfroth/RomeWedding.jpg . There are some construction photos at
http://www.angelfire.com/empire/egfroth/MyLamellar5.jpg and
http://www.angelfire.com/empire/egfroth/MyLamellar2.jpg and
http://www.angelfire.com/empire/egfroth/MyLamellar6.jpg as well as a rear view at
http://www.angelfire.com/empire/egfroth/MyLamBack1.jpg which shows the secondary lacing system (I'd just started making it), which keeps the whole thing from opening up like a venetian blind when you bend over.
