Chainmail isn't that hard to make (at least the costume variety)- just time consuming. Sort of like knitting, but with two pairs of needle-nose pliers instead of knitting needles. So make a chainmail bikini and skirt for your lady today!

Yeah. The video is available via the e-mail someone sent me, but not if I copy the link onto here.
Why? I don't bloody know.
Which is a shame, as it was rather funny.

You mean the joints in the rings? For the easy costume type stuff, yeah. Also, under pressure (like from a sword or spear point) the rings will spread.
"Real" chainmail has the joints of the rings riveted or soldered.
But the rings themselves don't seem to pinch. It pretty much flows like water.

Mystery solved. The link is supposed to start with "http", not "https":

Well, it was definitely https in the link that was sent to me. I checked three times. And what is the difference anyway?
And why is it that when I edit my link supra to http, it STILL comes up as unavailable?
There's something about all this I don't get. Well, there's an awful lot about this I don't get, actually...
Edit: No. I am a total klutz and typed o instead of O. Nothing to do with http(s) at all. I am a total idiot, I am a total idiot, I am a total idiot...
