Lamellar question

Post by Draconis93 »

Hey I'm thinking about making some metal Lamellar armor in the near future.
So i was was wondering what string would be good for this project?
One that wont break or get cut by the friction of the metal against the string.

Or full-grain thick leather lacing.

Rawhide lacing works well also. It will stiffen up the lamellar as well.
