tools for riveted maille

Post by Charles Alexander »

I'm considering tinkering with some overlap rings and making some riveted maille of my own.

Theringlord.com has tools for such, but does anyone else know of any alternatives?

Does anyone here still make their own riveted maille rings?

I've made them before, not really tough,

Hmmm, I typed out a long detailed post on how to do it, then I remembered this.....

He says it better than me.
