Ive used taps as well to mend shields. They do tend to sit a bit far away
from the minifig's body though. Looks fine if you use them as ornamental
shields

(...) I used to use the tap to fix my round shields I have four that were broken when I was young. I just flipped the shield around and attached the tap to the stud on the shield. I now have taps glued to the backs of all my broken shields. John (25 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
