I began doing chainmaille in 1998. I began and still prefer working with 16ga, 1/4" inside diameter aluminum rings. I am just beginning to explore some jewelry weaves and have done one sheet of 1/16" ID european 4-1.

Below are two pages of maille that I have done.

My Key Fob

This is a little fob I made for my keychain. It's 18 ga titanium wrapped around a 1/16" rod. It's just a tiny diamond of 4-1 attached to a short chain of byzantine. I'd like to anodize it when I get my torch running again.
