What made you think "I wanna do chainmail/scale stuff."
I mean, I wanted to make a forge in my backyard or something but dont have the ability nor the cash to do it.
But how did you start out?

It was actually kind of weird. I was taking a ceramics class in high school, and I was interested in ways to make sculptural pieces that weren't rigid, that interlocked. At the same time, I had been becoming interested in dragon-related art, and came up with the idea of making a dragon's skin with ceramic scales, all glazed differently. I was trying to figure out how to make the scales link together while still being flexible. A friend of mine basically just said, "Oh, I make chainmail. You want to do this with chainmail," and sent me a link to https://www.mailleartisans.org where I proceeded to slog through a bunch of tutorials and figure out how to make what I wanted to do. I started out by just grabbing a couple pairs of pliers from my dad's tool room and buying some steel wire from the hardware store and making my own rings. Nowadays, since I'm selling stuff, I can afford to buy nicer rings than I would be able to make myself for pretty cheap prices. (Thank theringlord.com for that.)

Also, I had been knitting stuff for a while back then, but was realizing that I never liked wearing knitted things, so that was dumb. Chainmail filled that same niche for a repetitive creative task, and I actually liked the things I made. So I stuck with it.

Wow.
If only i could stick to it, i could do just that myself.
And after thinking on it, i guess it isnt too hard to make this.
Have the chainmail base, have two rings go through one scale and attach both rings to three rings and add scales and more rings till its the right size and the colors are fluent throughout the entire necklace.

Now i know how to make chainmail.
Thanks for that!

And lovely necklace.
I would buy it if i could...

does it have a lobster claw clasp and does it fit nicely and does it pinch or anything?

It's got a big lobster clasp in the back. I make it to fit the person who's buying it, and I size it so it fits closely against the skin. (It has a little bit of chain for fine fit adjustments.) I've never experienced issues with pinching. The inner points of the scales are against your skin, and you can feel that texture, but it's not painful or anything.

So you might need neck measurements or something if i were to purchase one?

Ideally yes. Or, if need be I could just make the scale part shorter than normal and make the chain rather long, so it would probably fit any given neck.

alright then, i will contact you about one when im ready okay?

That works. You could also purchase it through Etsy if that's easier (link above in description), since it lets you pay with a credit card in addition to Paypal.

i will do that then thank you.
