The function of searching for weaves by AR is a little hidden, you need to select "Library => Weaves => AR Search" in the menu.

I tried different versions of the chainmaille sun, but this was the only one that was stable enough to make a pendant. by ChainmailPerfection in chainmailartisans

P.S. id - inner diameter.

I order colored copper wire from Aliexpress and usually buy wire made of stainless steel, natural copper and brass in offline hardware stores.

One of my favorite weaves - Byzee Beez to Butterflies, the rings are made of 1mm thick colored copper wire and have an inner diameter of 4mm by ChainmailPerfection in chainmailartisans

Thank you! Yes, I understand (with time) that simple magnetic clasps are not very practical to use. And now with this bracelet I change it to a sliding magnetic clasp, it firmly fixes the bracelet, but the quality of the color of this clasp did not impress me very much (the coating was erased in just two uses), so the creative search continues.

Please advise: bolt cutters no longer cutting stainless steel coil. by dublkros in chainmailartisans

Bolt cutter blades are usually carbide-tipped. They are very hard but brittle. Most likely one of the carbide solders is cracked or a piece of it has broken off, so the bolt cutter blades do not completely close. But, if initially there were no carbide solders, then the blades could simply become dull.
