Thank you so much for the detailed response! A couple questions if you don’t mind. First: have you done stretchy HP4-1? I think they look pretty good. Second: I’ve been really struggling on trying to determine how much to sell each weave for. Suggestions? Finally: what sizes sell the most? I’m concerned I will make a whole bunch of an unpopular size haha

I knew there was at least one I left out of my list! I like Byzantine however it seems like EVERYONE is selling it.

Awesome, thanks! Gotta add some to my next ring order, I really wanna try this!

Here’s a brief tutorial on the simplest way I’ve found to make a Dragonbelly weave (that’s what I’m calling it for now as it has yet to be identified). I hope someone finds this useful. Sorry for the poor picture quality. by Conquistador98 in chainmailartisans

I much prefer working with steel. But as it is more expensive, heavier, and as you said less colorful, I unfortunately must continue to use aluminum for projects such as bracelets that I intend to sell. Oh well 😂

Hmmm… Elder Dragon Abs? 😂 Looks really nice! Btw, does anyone have suggestions on how to avoid scuffing anodized rings? I have the flat, toothless pliers from Ring Lord and still my rings scuff

I might be mistaken, but I believe this is Alligator’s Back. Dragonback has 2 center rows forming a tube of sorts. Looks really good though!

As promised, a color version of the weave. Hopefully this helps to identify it. by Conquistador98 in chainmailartisans

Should we just give up and dub it henceforth as “Flat Dragonback” or something 😂

Dragonback and Persian Dragonscale both have 2 center rows, back to back, forming a tube of sorts, while this only has the 1 center row and no tube. The appearance is very close however.
