Hi all, I was wondering what you all would think about this. my idea is a metal chair-blacksmithed with maille (chain mail) for the back and the seat. if anyone would be interested in buying let me know. tommorow i will post a concept drawing of the chair. let me know what you think of my idea. thanks.

good luck with the seat. it better be rivited, you run the risk of going through it. if it is butted the rings could pull open.

would be cool if it worked right.

Butted maile - not just could pull open - will pull open. Guaranteed!

I think something like that would be more interesting as sculpture than seating - you'd end up with very strange patterns on the back of your thighs!
