I have begun to create European 4 in 1 chainmaille. I used 16 gauge galvanized steel wire that I bought from Canadian tire and wound it up on the jig that I made for John Oliver. Then I purchased my own pair of bolt cutters and went along the roll cutting off single links. The engineering students are currently working on helmets for metal work project and I think that having the ability to make chainmaille will help them in their quest to make great armour.
The European 4 in 1 chainmaille takes a long time to make. Each ring has 4 partners and each link must be closed individually.
