Here is my prider and joy of all of my maille shirts. 1 Mile of wire, 75,000 rings, and 2 pairs of bolt cutters broken (really took the use of that lifetime guarantee.) The shirt is finally done. Featuring my inlaied dragon on the front made out of spring hardened silicone bronze, and the remainder of the shirt made out of my all favorite 18 ga 3/16 rings in 316 surgical stainless spring hardened steel. This shirt, weighing in close to 25 lbs is extremely strong. Has stopped any medieval weapon I've hit it with including a 150lb pull crossbow.

Ask yourself
Will I burn in Hell?
Then write it down
And cast it in the well

That's very cool dude.
And you look a little stoned :-)
But that's ok.

nope not stoned, don't do that kind of stuff. More like up half the night working on stuff for a show and playing video games for half the night.

Oooh crossbow. Thats some tough shit. What would the retail vaule of it be?

Well going by the "standard" prices for the "hand made maille" at ren faires which is $0.02 a ring, this shirt would have a retail value of $1,500. Figuring that It took from the end of august to the end of feburary, it took a substantial amount of time.
