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

Couldn't you also take one of those 1x1 "taps" and put between the
four studs on the backside?  That would make an adequate handle, I
suppose.


Here's the tap: http://img.lugnet.com/ld/4599.gif

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.
