Chain

[sean30ber]

Got bored waiting for the stock to come in so I took some fence tie wire and made some accoutrement chain, Then decided Id put some more on the anvil and flatten it and make some more. Easy quick strong. Just wrap it around some round beading needle noses.

I reckon once you got in the groove it wouldn't take to long, and they look very nice. I also like the flat one, Might have to give it a go one day. Its those short soft metal fence ties to tie chain link fence to posts right? those are pretty soft and would flatten easy on the anvil end of a bench vice.

This I got at the Home Depot. It was tie wire, black soft steel in a roll. I think it was in the fence section. But it may have been with the rebar, used to tire it together. Pounds flat or square easy. Im going to try some twists in it soon.
