Attaching mail to a gambison.

Morning chaps,

A question for you all if you dont mind-

I'm having some mail addon ties put on my gambison that i have ordered so i can attach a piece of mail to the armpits, inner elbows and lower section of my gambison. These will be mainly astetic but will close up the major gaps between my brig and my arm harness.

Does anyone have any idea of the correct placement of the ties and if so would you mind sharing?

Thanks in advance

There was no one correct mode; it was anything that held the mail voiders up and on tightly. Artwork depicting voiders shows various models. Your array of points to lace your voiders on will depend entirely on your voiders.

They don't seem much to have needed to tack down the voiders' bottom edge so much as fasten the sides and the top.

Ah HA! The correct terminology is always a good idea!

My thanks to you Lord Konstantin.

So if you change the words "mail addons" in my first post to "voiders" then you might (with luck) be able to work out what I'm dribbling on about...
