Hello,

The only size ring I have enough of to make a hauberk right now are the 1/2"
Aluminized steel rings (like galvanized but does not darken out). If you would
like to come by and take a look at the rings and a hauberk made from them, give
me a call. I have several other types as well just not enough at this time to
complete a hauberk I would need to get them made and shiped out or you could
pick them up later. My number 438-2674

Dear Kevin,

I am interested in buying some rings for my son. Neither one of us knows
how to make the rings, and he does want a chain mail shirt bad enough to
make it himself, which is why he took the classes (in Calontir at RUSH).
He has a small piece that he made in class, with rings about 1/2" in
diameter. I may be in Tulsa on Saturday morning if you have any to sell.
