I kind of wanna make one too but I dunno if I have the patience tbh, maybe in a few years
>For a long-sleeved chainmail shirt with 8mm rings, I need about 30.000 rings. That equals 1000 hours of work. If somebody is doing this 8 hours a day, he will need 125 days. Without working on the weekend it will take that person a bit more than 6 months to finish.

>I'm not gonna forge the chains myself
thats not what I meant, I think some people buy the thin metal rods, spin it around something to create a spring-like coil and then cut the rings out by one by one
I found a chick on tiktok making her wedding dress in chainmail and she's been at it for 4 months now (2nd tok is at 3 months of progress) and she's gotten quite far so maybe it'll be faster than expected
anyways, I think you should do it, its a cool thing
