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:

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
