I talk more about it in my 21 questions video. It is pneumatic (air pressure), and so much better and easier to use. Is cost about $3000 when we bought it quite a few years ago.
Sorry no, I have stalled out as our local SCA group has crumbled and have no where to wear the completed out fit. It sits on my dressform waiting to be completed.
I've taken a lecture demo, they recommended linen, it's washable and molds better to the body. I think I need to take more time in the fitting and stretching phase to get the results I want. And as this is more of an underdress I think if it gets too stretched out I can take it in by adding darts or redoing the grommets. Thanks for your advise😀
