Complete Chainmail Kit - 20 Weave Tutorial Book, 23,000+ Rings(Over 4 Pounds), Clasps, and Tools

First off I want to say that I really liked this kit and wish I could give it 5 stars but one of the pliers wont close all the way without really squeezing hard and that is causing them to slip a lot or to drop the ring I am working on. You get so many rings with this kit that you will be able to practice the weaves in the book many times over. The only thing I wish was different in the book is in some of the weaves showing how to loop one ring through the others, i.e. with arrows showing directions, as I had to use Youtube to see how it was done. But I am happy I have the book I will always know what size ring to use for each weave in it.

This is an awesome Chainmail kit so many great patterns and very easy to follow instructions. The box is beautiful with chainmail patterns and there are so many jumprings. This definitely takes the guess work out of trying to figure out the sizes because they are all included. Great kit I highly recommend this I have purchased jump rings from Chainmail Joe before the jump rings are well made high quality.

I purchased this set because I wanted to give meaningful, handmade gifts to family and friends for Christmas this year. The jewelry has turned out perfect and it is so much fun and easy to make! So far I have been making Byzantine bracelets and earrings, full Persian keychains, and Persian cross pendants. For the pendants I purchased the 14AWG/16SWG 3/8” ID jump rings(sold separately by the same store) for the big center ring on the cross. I didn’t know this upon purchase, but the set does come with quality key rings, lobster clasps, and toggle clasps. It does not come with earring posts or the open clasps I have in my pictures. 10/10 recommend.

Loved this kit. Especially the book. Highly recomend.

Great product. Super clean and bright rings. Book gives great easy to follow instructions. Pliers are quite nice upper tier quality. Extremely fast turnaround for delivery. I would (and will!) happily purchase this again as a kit to get others into chainmail.

Had this for about a week and I’ve already made 3 20-22 inch chains in the Round Mail, Vipera Berus, and Byzantine weaves. The instructions are very easy to follow and the variety of ring sizes allows you to familiarize yourself with the materials while being able to make every pattern in the booklet. The pliers are very useful but I have to say that they tend to make your hands sore after prolonged use. The pliers could really use more padding or be more ergonomic despite that though I really can’t say enough good things about the kit itself.

Great set, excellent instructions.... this is an amazing way to get started and make some amazing pieces.....! It would be great if there were videos available online as well to see how things come together... maybe linked through QR codes in the instructions....?

I’ve not bought this kit but I have purchased all the rings in it and the book. I’ve found the book to be very helpful both to learning a weave and refreshing my memory on how I found shortcuts on a weave. I’ve not picked up my tools and rings for about two years due to having a serious injury to my right arm so I purchased the book after finding nothing good as a refresher, and it was just what I needed. The rings however are the best part of the kit. I’ve worked with rings from multiple sources and found this to be the hardiest especially now as I’m relearning how soft I need to grip the rings. I’ve also found them to be a great price

1) I do like that the book uses different colored links to illustrate new patterns - I wish there were the same colored links to practice with in the kit. 2) While the book included in the kit is well written and the pictures are crystal clear, it may not be helpful for some learners. Youtube can help- keep searching the pattern you are trying and eventually you will find someone who explains in a way that you understand. 3) I purchased this kit for my classroom, and found there to be enough rings for 9 kids to work on several different projects, with plenty left over. Its a good starter kit for small projects. 4) Chainmail Joe has amazing customer service! I emailed the company to try and figure out what I needed for our class & they were outstanding in helping me sort through my confusion.

I love this product. I am learning patterns that I have been trying for a while. The pictures are excellent and the rings are great quality.
