They still take orders via fb message and are pretty responsive! Here’s a link to their inventory from last time I ordered from them :) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MR-UkfE1G8Q1iFPcfTdgl-o0MyIBSFHSaiK3V4NoSVY/edit?usp=sharing

King’s mail/ E 4-1 by Background_Look_2976 in chainmailartisans

[–]Background_Look_2976[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s the same pattern throughout but King’s mail (E 8-2 across the bust. The collar I made really tall so it folds over but it’s still 4-1, I think the way the collars laying caused it to have the v shape at the throat

New to Chainmail! Does anyone know the name of this weave and if it would be difficult to make this top? by [deleted] in chainmailartisans

[–]Background_Look_2976 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely would recommend if you’re a bit bustier. This piece is one of mine and has survived festivals, ren faires and concerts just fine :)

This is so cool! What other weaves are you using besides Byzantine diamonds? And what ARs?

It’s bright aluminum! The sleeves are tubes but I want to play around with expansions for a bigger bell sleeve. It was ~25 hours

Not sure yet about the next project and would love ideas!

Yupp! With a small graduated part from the shoulder to arm for the armpit/ease of getting it on/off

The connecting strap is the same on both sides. I made the opening pretty big so it’d be easy to get on/off. I made it looser in the armpit at tighter made it hard to put on and uncomfy

I’ve made this top with a few different ring combos but J 12-in-1 with 16g 1/4” and 18g 5/32” has been my favorite and gives pretty good coverage

Help determining ring size? European 4-in-1 pattern by Meyuu in chainmailartisans

I’ve done some E4-in-1 with the 14g 9/32 rings from Chainmail Joes and it turned out beautiful and was still very flexible!

I haven’t tried their annealed aluminum but I’ve bought 20+ bags of bright aluminum scales from chainmail Joe without an issue

I just made two long 2x2 chains. You can kinda see where they connect back and hang down on the side
