Belt Apron Terminals - Construction Advice.

[Titus Marius Secundus]

I was wondering if anyone who have made their own belt apron terminals ( plates and finals) would like to share with me how they have made them. I am making my own belt and this is my thread here - http://www.romanarmytalk.com/20-roman-re...-belt.html

I have spent a few hours looking at pictures and searching the database here. Good information of course, but not enough specific advice. I am not able to use a cast method (that I am aware of, though I do have oxygen and acetylene tanks at my disposal) so I have been trying brass plate. It's six and half a dozen to me.

I am aiming for a Flavian-era legionary in Roman Britain, so for the final terminals, finds that were found in England are appropriate. I understand there's the Wroxeter apron pendent and the Colchester.

Info on other appropriate pendent artifacts would be appreciated!

If you scroll down a bit, there are some terminals that might interest you, and the price is certainly agreeable.

Thanks you Demetrius, though I shall be making my own. I am just a very busy person. I have attempted once. I am actually waiting to afford a metal lathe, ( which continues to be off set ) in order to make buttons easier by the bulk. In fact I one could hope to start paying the lathe off by that stage. Anyway, thank you again!
