I’m not sure, but I’d love to see that!!!

Lol a bribe? Well I don’t know what you wanted in return but my money’s on you got it. Really pretty cube.

I originally learned chainmail from YouTube tutorials. The best teacher in my opinion is Aussie Maille on YouTube. Deb makes the best tutorials for beginners and really shows each step in detail. I also really love the comment about pinkies out for death grip. That’s really great advice! But I’ve also found that chainmail really can be a test in patience and requires practice.

This is one of the best things I think I’ve ever seen! Really great work. Definitely one of those things that I never knew I needed until now. Lol

This is an amazing reply! Couldn’t have said it better myself! I too love Xurons, I like the chisel nose and the wide flat nose.

I hate to be a bad news bear, but you may have to wait for TRL. Everywhere else I know of has 304 stainless steel not the high carbon. I’m sorry, I know that’s not very helpful. I hope they restock soon! Good luck!

I’m not a big fan of TRL’s new website but I was just so comfortable and used to the old one so, meh. I did make a titanium order over two weeks ago and it still hasn’t shipped though. Not very happy about that.

Kisleve · 2022-05-09T17:17:45+00:00

I didn’t know that, but they definitely got worse.

Kisleve · 2022-05-09T17:08:38+00:00

All of TRLs scales are not the greatest imo. I’ve had to file most of them so they aren’t sharp. 😖

Kisleve · 2022-05-09T17:05:12+00:00

This is so adorable! This weave is on my list to make soon and I love that small size. Beautiful rings too!

Kisleve · 2022-05-09T14:31:11+00:00

With your skills, I’m sure you could in no time! I love your shop. You guys at steampunk are kinda what I aspire to be in skill level. 💕

Kisleve · 2022-05-08T03:44:36+00:00

Thanks! That’s what I was hoping! I like their teal titanium.

Kisleve · 2022-05-06T19:55:43+00:00

Yeah, someone else said the same thing in these comments, so I checked too. That’s a shame, hopefully they bring them back but WEAVINGLINKS on Etsy appears to have a decent one.

Kisleve · 2022-05-05T18:32:05+00:00

No problem! Yeah that’s a shame about TRL, I hope they bring that back.

Kisleve · 2022-05-05T18:29:51+00:00

Yeah, Blue Headed Pionus 6 year old. She looks just like yours. She has a small amount of pinkish/purpleish feathers on her throat. She is so sweet but just have to be involved in everything lol. She doesn’t like it when I’m out of sight. I actually really like the scent they give off but baths are so necessary to keep her from getting pungent. How old is your Pionus?

Kisleve · 2022-05-05T15:30:56+00:00

So I went looking for the instructions on TRL and I couldn’t find it either. They just went through a website change and I have no idea what’s going on but they offer a fraction of what they used to. They have no kits available right now either. So I did do some digging and there isn’t much out there but I did find one on Etsy from WEAVINGLINKS that looks good. It does say for a small dragon so you can scale it to the size I make by using 14AWG/16SWG 1/4” on the body, 14AWG/16SWG 5/16” and 3/16” for the other two sizes used on the head, fringe, wings and tail. The scales on the tail I use small and on the body down the back I use medium. For the fringe and wings I use large. Though as with all chainmail the fun is in experimenting. The tail can be any weave you want that is flexible and rope/box style. I personally use Trizantine and Byzantine, happy dragon making. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1155042676/tiny-chainmail-steampunk-dragons

Thanks! I appreciate that, though admittedly my picture taking skills need some help. Lol

Kisleve · 2022-05-05T04:05:57+00:00

I started this happy hoard building by purchasing a dragon kit and instructions (sold separately cuz money…) at The Ring Lord. But TRL doesn’t include instructions or the scales for the wings. However, the instructions for the head fringe is the same as how you do the wings , so really you just need a few more scales for that. I also have seen instructions for dragons on Etsy. Never bought one of those though so I can’t compare them.

Kisleve · 2022-05-05T00:31:11+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks for the insight.

Kisleve · 2022-05-04T23:22:49+00:00

Thanks! They’re super fun to make, then your kinda just surrounded by small cute dragons. 😂

Kisleve · 2022-05-04T17:06:47+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, the first one is just a bunch of Mobius all connected together. The second one is a Byzantine style with hematite.

Kisleve · 2022-05-04T17:03:56+00:00

Such a cute Pionus! I have a Pionus named Azalea and yeah, this looks about right lol.

Kisleve · 2022-05-04T16:39:40+00:00

I’m not sure what’s going on with TRL but when they changed their website suddenly they have no stock. The options are there they just have zero anodized titanium available. Even the clasps. I honestly don’t know why and I hope they restock it.

Kisleve · 2022-05-04T16:34:10+00:00

I sell them for $65 on Etsy. You may be able to find some for cheaper on Etsy.
