     @paul oh wow, it looks so good with small rings like that, i'll have to try that scale i'm more used to armor sized rings. I'm definitely interested to see what you do with it if you decide to ~

     @ritualdust a while back I made a maille pouch for my monome grid, using rings at this scale. I was pleased with how it looked, but it turned out to be very impractical for travel. Not only was it always flagged by the TSA (too dense), but it was also quite heavy (stainless steel).

     @ritualdust it's a great headspace. open, close, open, close, etc.

     I've got this patch of a really small and dense 4-in-1. It's fun to pick up from time to time. It's got satisfying heft. Maybe someday it'll turn into something other than a patch.

     @ritualdust love me some maille. I've got so many chains and patches just lying around. I keep meaning to get back into it.
