Would be sick to have a chain necklace like this to go with my Mjolnir medallion. Kinda like :thumb262154645:

Excellent work. What is the gauge/size of the links? I recently bought some anodized aluminum and my byzantine is a little too loose -- I have to put 3 rings instead of 2 in the center

Thanks!
I used 1,2 x 4,1 mm rings from a Dutch supplier. But I think they order from the Ringlord. Anodized Aluminum 18ga 5/32'' ID - Saw Cut [link]

Thanks!!
When working with anodized aluminium, always use smooth-jawed pliers and don't bend the rings more than necessary.

They look fantastic all together. Great work and an excellent photo.

Any tips on working with the anodized aluminum? The one time I bought some to try half the rings flaked when I opened them!

Thanks, I was using padded pliers and didn't think I was over twisting. Hrm.

Lovely work on the chains. The closures are so clean! More than the maille, I really love the dynamic way you set up the photo. It works perfectly for the variety of chains on display, and draws the viewer to pick this thumbnail out of a group of similar maille photos. Great shot!
