Building a boat-hull Boeotian
#40
I'm affaraid the answer woul be deffinately no! The bronze covers are as thin as 0,2-0,5 mm. Their purpose was to support the structure of the shield,and perhaps this is the reason why it was useful only to the round shields.
In all,it's impossible to cast anything as big and thin,that would be even close to bearable weight.
