Good morning! :)

Hiya! It's sunny and beautiful outside, and I am again feeling quite productive, and so one of my goals for today is to figure out how much time it takes me on average to sawcut an inch of 1/8" ID 20ga rings - 1 ring at a time; I still haven't bothered to buy a wooden dowel (hmmm... maybe I should go do that and see if it works) - and 1/4" ID 18ga rings... then I can do some work in Excel (Nan showed me how to use it!).

And guess what? You'll never believe it! I've managed to make roundmail from 1/16" ID (using a 14ga wire as a dowel) 24ga gold stainless steel thread... and it's absolutely beautiful! I'd already a piece 5 rings wide of euro 4-in-1 made from those rings, and it made just a bit over 2 inches of roundmail. I'm going to use it in the sample keychain I mentioned yesterday. Should blow my client's mind. lol

Alright. I'm going to get dressed, then see about that wooden dowel... and get to work. Cya. :D
