Fishing for interest, kusari..
Posted: Tue Jan 11, 2005 11:37 pm
I am probably going to order a large amount of kusari rings (both round and ovals) from a ring manufacturer and when thats done, im gonna start making kusari. The large numer of rings are because of a minimum number on custom orders from the manufacturer.
Since I will never be able to use all the rings I am ordering I am thinking about making kusari sections and sell. Is there any interest from anyone to buy custom kusari stuff?
The ring sizes will most likely be:
round rings, 1mm thickness, 3mm inside diameter
oval rings 1mm thickness (if I cant get 0.8mm), 1.1 mm x 2.5mm inner diameter.
This will be tiny goddamn maille.. the horror..
Most likely will the round rings be springsteel and the ovals regular steel. I might order brass rings as well if I decide to laquer one of the yorois I am making with gold laquer.. =)
