The Best Full Persian Chainmail Tutorial - Starting the chain, speed weaving & connecting ends

Recommended jewelry pliers for making chainmail: amzn.to/2SAOX33
Jump rings to get started: amzn.to/37I12Yk
Hey everyone! This is a fairly advanced chainmail pattern so I wanted to revisit it in this video and create a super detailed instructional video showing you everything you need to know about it. I talk about starting a full Persian 6-1 chain, demonstrate the pattern, teach you how to connect ends, and show a speed weaving technique that will save you time on longer chains. Enjoy! :)

    OMGosh! Can't imagine even trying this with rings smaller than the 5/16, IE 8mm, you used. Sure am glad just invested in the Xuron tweezer nosed pliers, straight and bent, esp. for connecting to ends. Really like the look of this pattern. Your close-up and camera angle really helped me see exactly how to do the pattern. TFS!

    I like your videos. Helpful in so many ways, in the idea of re learning chain mail. But no matter what I still can't this damn pattern down. And I've seen all the tips and tricks. With ten mm jump rings and twelve, I can get it down. But any smaller, yeah not happening for me. An I really like this pattern but can't get the damn thing down. Lol

    The dimensions only slightly matter but can impact the final product. Some weaves require specific aspect ratios or aspect ratio range. In this video, he said he used 16g wire size 5/16" (assuming he bought the rings) the 5/16th" is the dimension of the rod used to form the ring. So 16g 5/16" is an AR of 5.3. Meaning he can also use 18g 1/4" for the same AR or as he showed @ 1:17 he used 20g 1/8", which is an AR of 3.9 I am just a beginner in this, but you can find chainmail weave tutorials that will tell the aspect ratio or you have to do math like above and decide for yourself. Hope this helped somewhat.

    It's literally just the same step over and over again, I do show it once in real time. If you need to, just re-watch that a few times until you get it. The only difference between the speed weaving technique is that you put closed rings on the open ring as you weave, so most people don't need to see it repeated in real time after I've already explained how to put the open ring on the chain...
