The year you started making chainmail
2008

I just bend a piece into a "v" shape and slide one half under the vinyl. If i need more tension I just adjust it a bit. I've not had much problem with it moving around.

Lord Seamus started following Replacing Springs on Pliers
-
When my springs go out, I take the spring steel slats from an old pair of wiper blades, cut and bend them to length and insert them in the handles. so far I have not had a problem using them.

Your local automotive tool distributor (SnapOn, Matco, Mac, Cornwell) Should also have a small device (wand) that will magnetize or de-magnetize screwdrivers. This will work on your pliers as well.

Damn that looks good! Don't you love how the camera focuses in on an oops or two?

There are several different ways. Start off with a queen ring as in a coif or a juggling ball or make panels/sheets to connect together. A quick search on here should reveal a few methods. I'm partial to starting a juggling ball and going from there just because expansions drive me nuts. ;-)
-
Another idea: Old hacksaw blades and rivets. Cut to length and a rivet at each end.

It looks great short!

Very beautiful work, Rose!

Only a complete gobshite would say something like that. I've scraped better than you off the soles of my combat boots. I would request this thread be closed before I and several others quit biting our tongues and start responding appropriately.

Very nice work!
