Here is a few things I have made in the past few days. First, is what is known as Helms chain. I'm making this into a Necklace and Bracelet set. This is 18ga Aluminum. I have a Bracelet made with this same pattern in 19ga, witch looks Very Elegant! This is a Scale Flower. Rubber rings are the foundation of this flower! A Rainbow DragonScale Key Chain, that I made late last night. This one was hard for me to make, because I hate colors being mixed at random when making something. 2 Pride Rainbow Bracelets. Both are the same, besides the sizing lead at the end. One is a bit longer. Sun Lit Photo. Enjoy! ~Colt Chainmail

Colt, those are awesome. I need a nice necklace to hang some of my wraps on so I was thinking about chain maille. That Helms looks like a fairly easy one to start out with! How does it hang & would it be suitable as a choker?

Thanks everyone! ;D Donnie, are you saying your going to make chainmail. or are you just asking? Tanya, I would love to see your work! I started another Helms chain last night before bed. It's rainbow! I'm not a big fan of rainbow, but I'm thinking it may be a good seller. Everyone loves a happy rainbow! ~Colt

Helms is a stable weave. It works well as a necklace IMO. As a chocker, Euro 4in1 or 6in1 is better.
