I want to thank you very much for sharing all those wonderful chain mail videos with us. It's like having you right by my side and directing me each step of the way. I am almost 80 years old and a newbie and if I can do it, everyone can. Bless you.
What a wonderful comment. Thank you Connie. I am deeply touched by your words. I'm just sat here at my bench making jewellery, its very humbling t know that I am inspiring people all over the world and of all ages. Correction... "We" are inspiring people. I hope I am still making jewellery when I'm 80. God bless, and keep having fun !!. Dave -X-
I love that Connie! I’m a newbie too and these videos are so helpful! Thank you CelticDreams! You’re tutorials are awesome! Much love!
SUBSCRIBED…..such a very clear and detailed step by step tutorial.I have cast iron cookware from a company and they sell a chain mail scrubber so I bought it.Got to thinking about chain mail type thing to wear on my head then thought about a bracelet to wear,came to UA-cam and saw the pic of cross you made so I watched the whole
video.I wear a gold cross and like the one you made.Some questions…..
1) Where would I by the silver and copper chain mail from ¿
2) What type hand tools would I need ¿
3) Is every link on the items you make soldered after you bend link into position ¿
4) Main question is what’s name of the soldering machine
Felt I owed you the respect of watching the complete video very good craftsman!!!
I am here in ATLANTA GA I make items from MILITARY PARACORD,and might look to doing this also.
Have PTSD / DEPRESSION so crafting helps seems can’t go out anymore to have dinner or something like that without some idiots causing problems.

THANK YOU
Your tutorials are the best. The numbers and layout help me so much. I don't count so well in my old age. :P But I have more time to enjoy myself. Your counts and layouts make it easy to know that I have the required sizes, colors and amounts so when I begin to work I have the perfect layout. And if I make a mistake I see it right away. Were you an instructor earlier in your life? I think of you very warmly.
So glad I found you!!! This is so well done, thank you. I have been so wanting a step by step video for this very thing. Thank you again,
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching,Dave
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen. Very well done. You are an excellent instructor.
Thank you Sandy. over a hundred videos so far on all manner of tools, techniques and how to videos. all free to watch, with no annoying ads ! So fill your boots and enjoy. Thanks for watching. Dave
Another oldie here at 72 and learning new things! Great to have such an awesome teacher! You are so clear and not a wiggler! Thanks so much!
Thank so much for sharing this. Enjoy your new hobby, see you can teach an old dog new tricks ! Thanks. Dave
Thank you so much much for all of the time and effort that has gone into this fantastic tutorial. I love the finished product too. Well done
Glad it was helpful! Dave
Magnificent , I can just imagine what the cross would look in yellow gold.
I've made a few in sterling silver, but yes gold would be nice. Or better still.... imagine Yellow and Rose gold. nice and small. I've got to make one ! Thanks for watching. Dave
I am so glad that you took the time and effort on how to make this cross.
I had to teach myself the mathematics behind getting the ratio right. if it's too big it will be floppy and too little the rings won't fit.
you are a very good teacher.
Absolutely, its got to be tight. That last closure is hard, but once you've made the first, it all makes sense. Thanks for watching. Dave
Thank you. I’ve looked at pictures of this cross and thought how hard is that to make. You explain in an easy way to make. This has gotten me back into chainmaille.
Thank you for the lovely comments. I would highly recommend watching the Persian 6 in 1 video first though. As it will really help. Thanks for watching. Dave

Thank you for all your hard work on this video. It was so clear and easy to follow. Your directions made it so even I could not mess it up!! I really appreciate your video's.
Ha. Thanks for that. Like my other chain mail videos, It's hard to explain, but easy once you've done it. Do let me know if you manage to make one, Good luck. Dave
Two weeks of work...script, storyboard, props, rehearsal, lights, camera, action, takes, “scenes”, editing... Yep, I believe it, and I really appreciate the effort. Clearly, you love your work, and it shows. Thank you, Dave.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. Dave.
Great detail and how to method! It was easy to follow and well put together. Much appreciation! Keep up the great work!
Thanks, glad you liked it. Dave
I cannot wait to try this myself. Thank you for all your incredible work on this. Please know how much you are appreciated. Thank you!
Thank you for watching. good luck with it. Easy once you get it.Dave
Dave while it took you 2 weeks the finished product is superb .....awesome my man and the HD camera you used really shows the expertise in your craftsmanship...thank you dave for such a simpe well organized presentation
Awesome, thank you! Dave
Very clear instructions. Well worth the extra effort to get all the shots in an attempt to make the tutorial clearer.
Many thanks! Dave
I definitely do appreciate the work you put in to so elegantly describe how to make this cross! (I'm gonna try it!)
Thanks for saying so. It's the lovely comments that make it all worth while. Thanks for watching. Dave
I have watched several tutorials for this technique. Yours is the only one that is clear enough for me to follow. Thank you!
Thanks Karen, Do ensure you have the right size rings. Good luck. Dave
Thanks Dave for another stunning video! I truly appreciate the time and finely detailed directions on how to make this cross. Full Persian has stymied me for a while. With your extremely clear and close up work, I think I can finally master this technique. Thanks again!
If you haven already, do check out my other Persian video, wheer I show a regular chain.... Dave ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
Dave, I think the cross is stunning. Especially with copper & silver. I have never cared for chainmail before, so, this will be my first project. I do appreciate all the effort & time that went into making this video. Thank you!
For a first chain mail project this is a bit fiddly. If you want a nice easy chain mail project then try the byzantine. super easy and the most beautiful chain you will ever make. See link. Dave ua-cam.com/video/OmNRbWeKASM/v-deo.html
Hi Dave! Sort of tricky doing Persian links. Thank you for working so hard on this video to teach all of us how to make that beautiful cross. Have a wonderful day 🌞. From the 🇺🇸! 😎
Thanks. As mentioned, do checkout the Full Persian video too. A lovely chain and easy to make once you know how. Dave
ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
Oh my gods. Thank you so much for this video! I've been trying to figure out how to figure out how to make these for forever!
Enjoy !. Dave
Fantastic instructional video Dave. Thank you for having the patience to share what you do in detail.
Glad you enjoyed it. Dave
That is the most perfect chainmaille cross I have seen so far - abs brilliant! Many thanks Dave!
Glad you like it! I hope i have inspired you to have a go. many comments from others who have made them. Dave
That is beautiful. Thank you for the patients to make this video. Your passion for what you do shows in your teaching. We need more people like you so we don't loose the arts. We most pass our talents on; not sequester them.
Thanks Jean... and well said. I started making jewellery as I was disappointed at the poor quality of the mass produced junk on the high street. I agree it's important to keep the old skills alive. (erm.....even if I do have a $3,000 welder ) Some people are very protective of their skills and knowledge. I'm not ! I love sharing my passion and I want everyone to enjoy making jewellery just as much as I do. Thanks for watching, and for getting involved. Dave
Another Outstanding Production and Design. Thank You Dave.
Thanks Mike. Glad you liked it. Dave
Thank you so so much for all the hard work you go thru to make all of your videos. Not just this one. You walked me through my first weave and now I'm hooked.✌️
Hi Tanya, your comments are the precise reason why I do it. It’s great to share my passion and to encourage other to try too. Thanks for watching. Dave
I got so excited to see another chainmail tutorial video.
My mum has been at me to make her a cross for nearly a year now. Looks amazing, yet is simple to make. Gonna buy the materials now. Thank you so much.
Some of the other instructions aren't easy to follow. It took me a while to work it out myself. So hopefully you can follow my video. good luck and shout if you get stuck. Dave
Hello from "your American friends" across the pond! Your hard work and persistence is appreciated. I'll be making this for my mother. She loves the cross and loves her Christ. So, thanks alot! Have a great day.
Thanks. Nice to hear from you. good luck with the cross, it will be a really special gift , as its something hand made by you. Thanks for watching & commenting. Dave
I saw this video, bought everything I need and started crafting. It worked very well because of your stunning easy and understandable explanation. Thank you so much!
Wonderful! Now you can show others and inspire them too. Enjoy your new skills. Thanks for watching. Dave
Excellent instruction. Thank you for opening up a new world to me. Love the birds too.
I hope I have inspired you to have a go. By the way, check out this video if you haven't seen it.... Dave ua-cam.com/video/bf0DPhzy7S4/v-deo.html
Thank you so much for your videos.. Going from one that I started I got lost in the video and I found you. You made it so easy to understand. Thank you for your patience and care I’m making these videos. It’s so appreciated!!! All Blessings to you !!!
Thank you for those lovely words. I hope you managed to finish it. Dave
Your instructions are so clear & the way you shot the video is just outstanding! Thank you so much for all of the effort put into this. I'm going to make one for my Dad, he's going to love it.
Good luck, thanks for watching. Dave
I'm with Connie, I've just retired and the videos are just awesome. Doing the stop/start with the video is like having you there, I've watched some other videos from different people but I feel yours are easier for us newbies. Thanks and great work.
Thank you. So nice to know that you appreciate it. Thanks for watching. Dave
I am going to get ready to make the cross set for a friend.
Thank you so much for the wonderful illustration video.
I subbed your channel.
Thanks and welcome. Dave
That is really beautiful! I've never really done jewelry/wire working/chain mail but I've always wanted to and I'm very inspired!
This is perhaps a more tricky thing to start on. If you fancy having a go, then start with the byzantine. Surprisingly simple to do, and only requires a couple of pliers. see thelink. Dave

Thank you so much for sharing your excellent tutorial!
Thanks for the comments. Dave
EXCELLENT tutorial!!! I appreciate all the work you put into it to demonstrate how to make this beautiful cross.
Thank you so much! Dave
Thank you for taking all that time to make this tutorial. I have always had a problem with this weave but your video just made it so simple. I made a cross out of stainless steel for my grandson and it turned out perfect. Thank you again for all your time and for sharing with all of us.
Great to hear. I obviously explained it well. Thanks for the lovely comments and that's for watching. Dave
Excellent tutorial!! I've never attempted to make chain mail 8r even watched a video. You made this process very understandable and easy!! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! But Id suggest the Byzantine as a starting point. Very easy to do and will build your skill and confidence. Dave
ua-cam.com/video/OmNRbWeKASM/v-deo.html
Best explanation I seen so far. Hard work pay off. Good job!
Thanks. Dave
This is absolutely beautiful! I made your Persian and it tuned out great, so making this will be much easier, thank you for all the great videos!
Thanks for sharing. Nice to know it worked out for you. Dave
That is simply gorgeous! Thanks for showing how to make it
You're welcome. I hope you manage it. thanks for watching. Dave
Oh my gosh!! I was loving this!!! Thank you for the time u took to create this video! You're amazing!
You are so welcome! Dave
Wow! That's ALOT of work
GREAT video 👍
Thanks for sharing!
Once you've got the correct rings, (and you're familiar with full persian) it's actually fairly quick to do. I can probably knock one of these up in under 15 minutes. Have a go !. Dave
Amazing tutorial! Thanx a million. I'm going to try that!!! You have been very inspiring ☺️
Have fun! Dave
Very well done video
Can't wait to try it
Really like the cross and the chains you make
Thank you for all the hard work on the videos
Thank you. It's nice to hear the you appreciate them. Thanks. Dave
Thank you Dave for this great video! So clear and such a beautiful cross! Love it !!
Thanks. Do have a go, its well worth it. Dave
Wonderful instructions! Thank you so very much. I truly appreciate all your efforts!
You are so welcome! I hope you have a go. See the other comments. Many people have made them. Dave.
Lovely. Very detailed. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Dave
Awesome Tutorial! Thank you!
You're welcome! Dave
I have watched a lot of video on this Persian, and you nailed it thanks so much
Thanks. Glad it helped. Dave
you are a natural teacher. You make it look easy
It's not as hard as it looks. If you learn the full Persian 6 in 1 first (see my video), then it's just joining four bits together. Once you've made one, you're away. You can do it!. Dave
Dave, I want you to know that I certainly do appreciate the work that you have done here and all of your other videos. Your instruction is spot on and I have used your amazing videos to complete some of my own pieces. I love this cross and I will definitely be making one. Thank you kindly from Canada!
Thanks Lou, for those lovely comments. That's why I do it, it's nice to share my skills and passion. Thanks for watching. Dave
Very many thanks for the time and effort which you put into this, and all your videos. You make it look so easy! Can’t wait to have a go.
It isn't that hard at all. A bit fiddly in parts, but quite simple once you've learnt the Persian weave. it's just difficult to try and explain it. Good luck and have fun. Dave
Thank you so much! That really helps. I love this design and want to make a few for gifts.
Easy when you know how .; ) Dave
Thanks Dave. Been waiting for your next tut. Love it. I need to convert metric to USA . Thanks again love your work.
If you check out the Full Persian bracelet video, I show a range of USA sizes, just note the point here about the two larger rings needed for the centre. Dave ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
New to chain maille (experienced in wire weaving though) but you have really inspired me to have a go! I massively appreciated this brilliant video so I just wanted to thank you for all the hard work that went in to making this such a comprehensive and well made tutorial 💕
I really must emphasize having a go at the Persian chain first.
ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
You will understand the Persian weave and make this cross a lot easier (its a very fiddly project this one). Dave
Thankyou for sharing your cross you make it look manageable for me so I am feeling positive to have a go at one of these for my hubby .
Pleased to have inspired you. Dave
Fantastic love your tutoring very well explained can’t wait to try thanks
Thanks so much 😊 Dave
Brilliant tutorial, easy to follow, really appreciate all your work
Thank you. Kind words. Dave
Beautiful, will make some for Christmas gifts. Thank you
Thanks Rose, just remember to stick closely to the dimensions. good luck. Dave
thank you so much for investing time to educate us. you are an excellent instructor and your work is incredible!😊
You are so welcome! Dave
I just wanted to stop by and say how much really do appreciate all the hard work you put into these videos. I have been studying a lot of the old craft I saw the elders doing as i was a little girl. Byzantine was usually made or handed down in my family. But sadly my family has disbanded and old knowledge and history was lost. I have been making a strong effort with my own children to teach all that I can. And I want to make them and my husband kings chains. I especially think it would be great to make one for my da. As he lost his many years ago .. thank you for all you do.
I agree entirely. It's important to keep these old skills alive. Hopefully I am doing my small bit too. Thanks for watching. Dave
Beautiful video and great directions
Thank you for the lovely comments. Dave
Thank you so very much for making this video! It was very clear and I was about to follow along like you were in the same room..
Lovely compliments. Thank you. Good luck ! Dave
Thank you so much for your efforts, you make it look so easy now. Will give it a try
As mentioned, just make a regular persian 6 in 1 chain first, (see my video) it will really help. Thanks for watching. Dave
Wow that is amazing. I would love to try to make one. Thank you for sharing.
Try the regular persian chain first, and get used to the technique. Dave . ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
Excellent description and a pretty cross.
Thanks. Dave
You always do fantastic videos and I appreciate it very much .
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching. Dave
That's beautiful.... and you make it look so easy!
perhaps not to start, but quite simple once you've done the first one. Dave
Wonderful tutorial. I will have to try this
Have fun! Dave
Very new to all this. Thank you. You have really made it look easy. And is beautiful.
Thanks. If you're new to this, then perhaps try a byzantine first. Its quite easy to do and will build your skills. Dave ua-cam.com/video/OmNRbWeKASM/v-deo.html
You're an excellent teacher. Thanks for sharing your skills with us all.
Thanks for the lovely comments Derek. That's why I do it (Note there are no annoying adverts ). Dave
@@CelticDreamsCoUk my pleasure Dave, hope to see more of your videos soon.
Just amazing! Thank you so so much, for your time, to make this Tutorial!
You're very welcome! Dave.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. You can tell you put a lot of work i to it. I will definitly be making one of these. I have been looki g for one that I could understand. Thanx again
Thanks, I hope you can understand my method. good luck. Dave
Loving this I absolutely love anything celtic I am really going to try this whether I can or not is a different story but I'm going to have a go and thank you so much for this video
Go for it! Dave
Fabulous tutorial. I really do appreciate all your detailed efforts in creating this video. Looking forward to creating these for craft markets.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck. Dave
Super great video! All clear to see, and easy to understand. Thanks.
Thanks for watching. Dave
Love the way you explain things thank you so much and for all your time and putting these tutorials together. I'm new to chainmail and this is one of the pieces that I've been dying to do.
Thank you. I hope you manage it, It's worth the effort. Thanks for watching. Dave
@@CelticDreamsCoUk I completed it in a Dusty Rose and silver and it looks amazing
I own one of these from Dave. It's stunning.
Thanks. Now you know how it is done. Note too yours is FULLY welded, on every link. As is your bracelet. Enjoy. Dave
This is the most beautiful cross I have seen. I love the way you explain everything. I think I going to give it a try. Thank you so much for all your time. Godbless
Thanks. Perhaps just try a straight Persian chain first (see my Full Persian video). Dave
Celtic Dreams I just finished making it. I'm very excited. Thanks Dave
Beautiful work!
Thanks you. Dave
Great video Dave, cheers 👍🏼😊
Thanks for watching. Dave
Muy bien explicado. Muchas gracias por compartirlo. Saludos desde Argentina
Gracias. Dave
Awesome video. This is going to be my first project. I like the welder you use.
Thanks Jimmy, If you haven't seen them, check out the Two Orion videos. Awesome machines, and not as expensive as you might think. Dave ua-cam.com/video/FeMd_ZXkXa0/v-deo.html
This is a great tutorial as I have been very interested in the chain male styles of wire weaving and you my friend make this look all to easy with with much practice will be the case such fine-looking work you got here I have a big pile of copper jump rings looking to dive in to your instructions and be blessed by your skillful talents
Thank you
You're welcome. I would strongly recommend watching the Persian video first though. As it will make the cross so much more understandable. Dave . ua-cam.com/video/pRGS0inVxVY/v-deo.html
I love it...Thank you so much for sharing
You're welcome, thanks for watching. Dave
Beautiful! Thank you!
Glad you like it! Dave
Wooooahhh this cross is so sick! Awsome page man, you are the lord of the rings! 👍
Its not easy the first time, but if you follow along it can be done. many nice comments from people (even a 72 year old) so anyone can do it. Or you can buy one of mine ; ) Dave
your work is great and I really like it
Thank you. Dave
amazing camera work !!! you deserve an award )))
Thanks! 😃 Cannon EOS 700D with a Macro lens. Dave
Hi, I've just found your channel today and I'm really enjoying it. This is an excellent tutorial, with clear and easy to follow instructions. Boy, I sure could've used this a little over a year ago. I made 25 of these as keychain fobs. But I kind of figured out how to make it on my own (without proper instructions, except for the basic Persian 6 in 1 chain) by studying a picture of a completed cross and lots of experimentation. I made things more difficult than it needed to be by working from the center outward. Your instructions look much easier. Thanks for the great tutorial.
Thanks, there's always more than one way to do something. My aim here was to make the project simple to follow in steps. Do check out my Full Persian video and byzantine video too (if you haven't already). Thanks for watching. Dave
These are great videos! I've always struggled with aspect ratio and your explanations on this are so clear. And your tutorials are really high quality because of all your prep and excellent video shots! Thank you again :)
Happy to help! I wrote a very detailed blog on aspect ratio and how to calculate the right ring size. You may find it useful. see link. Dave

@@CelticDreamsCoUk excellent! Thanks
Thank you so much. I appreciate this so much!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching. Dave
Mr. Wilson, have yet to make my first piece of chain mail, couldn't decide where to start! After finding your channel have watched several of your videos, you are extremely talented in your jewelry craft, instruction, and photography skills! Have decided to make this piece using your video as my first attempt with chain mail! Please continue creating these for others like me, new, and not sure of the terminology, or aspect ratio, you give ALL the info needed to create such a beautiful piece, with excellent instruction and illustration!!!!
This is perhaps a little tricky for a first attempt. I'd always recommend the byzantine to start, as its quite easy. Then try the full Persian, before having a go at the cross. That said, each video is fully explained, but the experience of the other two will definitely help. Good luck. Dave
Beautiful design and a very clear video, indeed! Thank you so much for this. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours.🎄❤️
Thank you. glad you liked it. Dave
Excelente trabajo, eres muy explícito en tus videos. Excelente
Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de comentar. Dave
Thanks a lot for sharing this video & really the creative idea
👍😆👌
Most welcome 😊 Dave
This version copper and silver, makes a beautiful cross. Thank you again for showing me your stunning work. I will be watching for more. :)
P.S. Highly appreciate your time and work.
Thanks Wanda. I thought the two tone would make it easier to follow, hence why I re made the video again. Thanks for watching Dave
Is your wire pure silver and copper, or coated silver and copper.
925 Sterling silver, and the wire is pure copper. I normally just work in silver, or 9ct, but used copper as above for contrast. Dave
fantastic work!!!
Thank you! Cheers! Dave
Beautiful! I really want to try this. Thank you for the video!!
I'd allays suggest making a Persian chain first (see my video) just to get used to the pattern. Good luck. Dave
@@CelticDreamsCoUk Thanks, Dave! I downloaded your Persian bracelet video, so maybe I'll start with that. I went on line to buy some rings but found the sizes confusing. I wrote down what was needed but couldn't find the exact ones. I'll try another site. I've watched several videos on chain maille and can follow the patterns fairly easily. It's the closing of the rings I'll have to practice. They are all beautiful and I'm so eager to try! You are an excellent instructor.
