I have an 8 inch by 20 inch sheet of copper that I want to make something out of. I think of bracers but know they aren't exactly period for Greek Kit. Any Ideas on what I could make?

Emblem that you can put on a shield perhaps.
Also arm guards covering from shoulder to wrist did exist from 800 to 550.
Kind regards

How about a greave for the left leg, and a wish to find another for the right?

It just covers past my knee but I do not know how to shape a greave. Any clues?
