You have great taste. It shines through all you work.
Excellent tutorial - love all your tips especially on how to close the rings properly. I will be sharing this tutorial on my blog (later this year) as your channel is a great one for my readers to come and learn!
I made an entire suit of chain mail (A copy from the Bayeux Tapestry design) out of the black spring steel clothes hangers, winding ( I designed and built the hand winder for 3/8" ID rings) and cutting each one by hand. I found that very good quality Lineman's Pliers worked best for the metal links of spring steel. It took well over 2000 coat hangers, IIRC.
Amazing dedication to your project.
@@catcav29 Thanks. It took months. I still have it after almost 40 years. I was once accused of stealing it from a museum at a Halloween party I wore it to! The Karen would not believe a person could make chainmail armor.
BTW It does work. It was tested with live steel weapons. Bruised, but not badly with a Gambeson underneath it. Chainmail will NOT stop arrows or thin pointy knives.
It is very cold to wear in winter and very hot in summer. Weight- about 65 lbs.
I did the 5 in 1 pattern. 6 in 1 would have been much heavier.
You are such a sweet young lady with an abundance of talent ❤ I absolutely love watching your videos ❤ I am still trying to learn the chain maille ❤ Every time I try to start a project with that, I end up finding out that I have the wrong jump rings ❤ So last night I purchased 3 batches of 18 gauge/3.50 multi-colored jump rings ❤ Hopefully I can finally succeed to make a bracelet ❤ I love your stretchy bracelet one ❤
Also wanted to let you know that I think you have a sweet smile and you are so enjoyable to watch ❤ Still going through all your videos ❤ Thank you for all the videos, and sharing your talent with all of us ❤ Love from Roswell, NewMexico ❤ BIG HUGS ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍 I looked at thw prices on the Ring Lord and they are pretty reasonable ❤ I love it !!!! ❤ Order gold for the 18 faufe and purple fir the rubber ring ❤ I have to try and make this bracelet ❤ Thanks a million ❤
I feel so bad I missed this but oh I would love to make some of these for my grandchildren they will love them. Take care 😊🌻🐝💜
I love the click when closing a ring also. This is a great tutorial. I like the ones where you incorporate the rubber rings into traditional designs.
I have done this helm chainmail but never thought to use rubber rings. Thanks.
Thank you Yvonne, you always are so helpful to us newbie’s, you go slow and step by step so I can follow along!
Commenting just because these tutors are great.
This looks so cool
Great tutorial 👌
Those r so beautiful 😍
This is awesome tutorial. I have men asking for bracelets of which I’ve made them. But this I really think will catch there eye. Even in a necklace for them. I got great idea just looking at this tutorial. Thanks for sharing
i love this idea i have never done this before but i am going to buy supplies to make these
Wonderful tutorial Von! Always appreciate the full stepthrough and great way you teach.
That is such a great design!
I just want to recommend you check out Bead Me A Story. They have really fabulous rubber ring colors. (Nothing wrong with TRL -but Bead Me A Story has some unique and fabulous colors.)
Thank you for these tutorials❣
AND AGAIN I MISSED IT.
I love the idea of doing the 2 and putting something between. What if like with the elf star you connect the 2 outer circles with small rings. Make it sorta like the elf star But not exactly. Does that make any sence. I can see it in my head and it would be amazing but from the brain to type not sure if it's coming across well.
I love the chart that you have under your hands do they come with a smaller gauge as well and where did you buy it
I ordered jump rings from Amazon…and did not get that ring sizer card
Are you guys coming to wichita Kansas or Kansas City ??
I need that lil gauge chart. Can u make it big tu
