Linothorax again

[Dan Howard]

Apparently with casein, it can be made waterproof if lime is added to it. How come you are having trouble with glue when other reconstructions did not? What glue did Matt Amt use for his reconstruction? What about Connolly? Another factor that should increase damage resistance a little is to alternate the direction of the "weave" so that the weft and warp run in perpendicular directions on each layer. The same thing can be achieved in leather by having the "grain" of each layer running perpendicular to each other.
