Help me get to my First Pennsic.

[Duncan Von Atzinger]

Starting early to try and make it to my first Pennsic. So I have Fealty chains for sale. I make them from Gold Anodized aluminum and bright aluminum. Very light and you won't have to worry about tarnish or fading of color. They are going to be $30 a piece regardless of material. These are made to order to their desired length.

Here are some pictures of the weaves I can do and the color of the gold.

Here is a link to a review from a happy customer and a picture of the bright aluminum.

Duncan, I may be showing my ignorance here.....

How are the chains constructed? Are individual links that are connected somehow? Or are they woven wire?

Also in the other thread, it mentions a heavy type and a light type, can you explain the difference? And how long are they?

I'm interested, but I have to know more about them to know if they will fit the purpose I have in mind.

[Duncan Von Atzinger]

They are individual rings called jump rings. They are split and I can open and close them to form the patterns. Between the two types it's just a thicker gauge wire vs a thinner gauge. Ie 18 gauge vs 16 gauge. I make them measured to fit so it just depends on where you like it. Average is around 27-30 inches depending on how long you want it.

I hope that covers everything but Feel free to ask as many questions as you'd like.

So, out of curiosity, are you selling the chains to finance your trip to Pennsic?...(seems obvious but I'm not always the sharpest knife in the draw)...and if you are, how many do you need to sell to get yourself to Pennsic?...in other words, whats your budget?....or are you hoping to do merchanting at Pennsic and this would be the beginning of your client base?

I need to sell them to help get me there. As far as budget..im not real sure. I'm a middle class bum that works 50 hours a week and is scraping by. So any little bit helps. If I sell one or two of them great. If I sell more even better. I'm just trying to make it easier on the wife and our finances.

It's just one of those things that will help us make it happen if you know what I mean.

[jamesedgarson]

I know EXACTLY what you mean. Sounds like a great idea. How does one go about ordering? Do you take paypal? Do you ship outside of the CON-US?....
