thanks for your video! wondering a couple things: -do you ever have issues with the thread falling out of the rings? I assume the rings you're sewing have to be pretty airtight? also wondering about the type/thickness of thread & what size harness needle you're using. -you mention that you stitch each ring individually rather than stitching right down the line. wondering why that is?
Those rings are titanium and it’s very easy to get them to butt together with pressure so that the ends are both flush and pressing towards one another. It’s not that easy to do with most wires. It’s a button thread and on different projects I use different threads. This is a great versatile thread that is amazing for stitching maille: amzn.to/3QBGqsC I have assorted needles amzn.to/3n2VZvA I like the look of the individual stitching.
Nice.... I once did a tunic in a similar way, but if you want to save some effort you can start the same way, then do invisable capet stitch by passing the neadle between the layers of fabric to the next point and repeat as you did so you don't have to cut each one.
Thanks sorry for the bad spelling watching your video showed me how though. Thank you very much. I made a pouches for my 100 mini 1 gram silver bars ;)
I see you're doing this with bunted rings, is there any concern with the thread working its way between that gap, or do you simply chock that up to future normal maintenance? I've done a lot of mailleing, but haven't done anything in the way of attaching fabric because I was trying to solve just that issue. I'd thought about soldering / spot welding them together, but that's another issue. Great vids btw!
Let me know what you guys what me to build next!!
Nice tutorial.
Well i must say i would love to see some lannister armor to go with the helmet and more armor builds in general
Armour (of any kind) would be awsome!
I definitely want to do more game of thrones armour!!
More armour coming your way! Thanks for the comment!
Can you do like, something with riveted maille?
Fabric helps to not get hair stuck in mails ;d and also makes better protection from blunt attacks
ok neat. I just did a whip stitch because its faster to take apart again to clean rust and sweaty cloth separately, but this might be stronger.
Great tutorial! Thank You for uploading!
You’re welcome
Very useful thanks so much
First time here, nice content and great music.
Thanks!
Parabéns, o seu trabalho é fantástico

@@DrawbridgeProps thanks for you tips and help! Currently self-teaching and it is much appreciated
What kind of thread are you using? Thanks!

Thanks for that!! Hope you’re having a great summer !
If you had stiched the lower rows the stitching would he better protected from wear as opposed to the very putter edge.
Great idea.

I've actually thought of making a jacket with chainmail sewn into it and the cloth of the jacket being padded like a gambeson.
That would be great but also hard to wash.
@@DrawbridgeProps they didn’t wash stuff back then lol
@@derekkat7693 Yes, they absolutely did. You should probably read a book.

weird to me that those who do butted go all butted... Even rivited chainmail is mostly solid links.. only rivit the ones having to link together..
@@Ulfric42 Yeah, but that requires either punching them out of sheet metal, or welding/ soldering the ends together first.
If your gona use that chain mail for any thing but wearing it will but great. Stitching
Butted mail... 🤢🤮
I think you mean period correct maille.
It is not spelled 'maille' but simply 'mail.'
All armour has French names. Maille is appropriate. or ring armour if you’re English.
Both is good
I'll be sure to inform the historians at once! They've been doing it wrong for centuries, some mook on TH-cam said so.
thats butted mail.
this is fake armor.
It’s movie costume armour.
