nice! where did you get the chainmail kit? a friend's husband made some chainmail with scales and it's amazing. I used to love making little stuff like chainmail wristbands.

... when I read the first two lines of your post, I thought you were talking about WoW ...

Maybe I change my profession!

I got it from a place in canada called metal designz.

nice little site.

now i just need to find a nice place in US so shipping isn't as much! shipping was a 1/4 of my whole cost!!!

I would like to eventually make my own rings in the future. but we'll see...

haha! nerd... lol.

this is what I used to do back in the day ...

- find a pipe the diameter of the rings you want.
- drill a hole in one end and stick the wire in.
- start turning the pipe to coil up the wire until you've filled up the pipe.
- snip the end that you stuck in the pipe, slide the coil off.
- go down the coil snipping each ring off. they're all the same size.
