See, they are wiring it together.  With the old pull-rings, you had a self-joining piece.  LOL!

that took me back - I remember people had long chains of those.  Apartment and dorm rooms with these lengthy chains hanging!

I saw several videos on youtube on making chainmaile from pop tops - just did a search on "poptop chainmail" - looked fairly easy, but time consuming.

There's a chap in Minnesota that has an entire suit of maille made from pop tabs. You don't even realize it's pop tabs until he's about 5 feet away. I think it's marvelously fun, albeit, time consuming. But what the heck! It's time spent together!

Can't wait to see progress pictures!
Nothing clever to say here.  Not enough caffine yet.
