Linothorax design/construction
I'm going to have a go at making a mixed cuirass of linen and alum-cured hide, which is called "buff" in the US and Canada but is usually dead white--and which existed in Classical times as well. It is probably typical of my "compromise" theory of reenacting that I'm going to try to mix Paul's alum buff and quilted linen in one piece of armour--but I'll hold this thought for when I have a finished thorax to present.
Qui plus fait, miex vault.
