could not remember if i made a thread with this title and reasoning but im excited so here goes a second [or first]
so im going to be making chain mail soon. im so excited its crazy! my mats are almost here... they arrive in 4 days!!! cant wait
going to be making so much chain mail. i have the tools i just need to make the crank [once my foster dad gets around to finding the shit he said i could use or i buy my own]
going to start with some simple four and six in one. maybe move up to dragons scale. i have copper and aluminum wire coming.
oh! and i have to use the grinding disks my mom sent me to take the teeth off of my pliars [they damage the soft metals]
-
OH YEAH! MY CHAIN MAIL MATS ARE IN RICHMOND BC! they finally made it from saskatoon SK!!!
3 more days till arrival!

I have to say, pretty fucking cool. Given that I go to A LOT of celtic festivals I am well versed in the dedication that is given to the art. I love it. You definitely need to post pics as you go :)

Very cool. I like the pendants hanging on it. How long does it take to make something like that?

I do find this thread really relaxing.
It makes me laugh, and I like the craftsmanship of Zippo.
Thought this topic was about chain letters at first b.t.w. :laugh:

Why not?
something about sparks fron the grinder and dogs.... we have a 3 acer property and the dogs only ever go out in the fenced front yard. not about to argue it though.
-
Ah, that sucks. I hope you can sort out some shop space okay.

I didn't read this before because I thought it was about chain letters. :tard:

the real name for it is simply "Maille" meaning braid or chain if i am correct. some stupid author coined the improper term chainmaille later.
EDIT: that was not quite right according to this site

no... though i presume the process would be interesting. i am kind of experimenting with scale maille at the moment.
pics of my scale maille project [a small dice bag] and my chain maille belt that im making [god its taking a while.] below
scail maille one is kind of early stage. it has gotten much larger than that but the scales are a bit small.
