The best resource I found as I was starting out was Maille Artisans International League. Scale as I make it is not historical in any sense; as far as I can tell it originates with the company that makes that distinctive shape of scale. Scale for combat would have been larger plates sewn or riveted to a leather backing.
Thanks for the tag! I'll have to work out future uses for it. Good to know we can't just add arbitrary tags with the post.
