Copper corset block: when a corset was ready to be finished it was taken to the copper block room where it’s attached to these steam heated block forms. The corset was laced onto the forms and heated with cold wet starch. The steam inside the form would set the starch and the corset was mounded into its final shape. I wish I had one of these, if only I could borrow it for 3D printing!!! #coppercorsetblock #copperblock #corsetry #corsetfacts #corset #howtomakeacorset #symington #symingtoncorset #thesymingtoncorset (at The Symington Building) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5GKV61n8JO/?igshid=80kx7jwhrzv5
