chainmail

i spent a couple of days working on chainmail bracelets with our intern at Organic Metal Gallery. this requires sawing coiled wire to make hundreds of little jump rings, stringing a line of them onto a clothesline like contraption, and then linking the next rows all together with pliers to get this pattern.

it feels so good to see each row finished as i work.

i think i want to do some more elaborate chainmail type bracelets for myself in the future. i'll try to get on that...
