Peter Johnsson suggested using aquatherm PPR pipe as bone and provided dimension for which size would simulate certain bones. I figured that I was using a tad bit smaller diameter than he was suggesting for the upper arm. Thus I used chopsticks to simulate the size he suggested and found that it takes 13 chopsticks to made the circumferences. Then I verified my techniques again using Longship Armoury LLC 5160H DS Dadao. In one of the cuts I even cut the PVC pipe along with the chopsticks core!

Trying the same kind of target with a light sword this time, a lung chuan katana, using the same technique set as a compare.

Using Longship Armoury Giant Silvia to cut an upper arm difficulty composite target, made of wet newspapers as muscle, 13 chopsticks core as bone, multiple layers of plastic bags as skin and multiple layers of 0.8mm PU fabric as clothing.

The cut at mark :56 shows a clean cut and at the same time the target below the cut breaks, or did you just set a previously cut piece on top of another?
Could you do some cutting with a knit shirt, possibly a worn out T shirt substituted for the plastic?

I cut the freestanding part all through afterward. Yes I cut worn out T shirts before as well as a lined coat, both donated by a student. hahah. Back then I wasn't using the same technique as my recent videos though. The technique back then had way less cutting power relatively.
