Re: Hello, thought I would introduce myself
Your in trouble - it is addicting - what kind of package did you get from Steve?
Although there are a thousand posts here (give or take 10) most of your questions have been answered (but don't be afraid to ask, anyway).
The Tutorial section is worth its weight in gold, silver, platinum, and time. Please look at those and try them and then ask questions. It makes it easier to understand our guidance if you have already "tried it" and then don't understand.
Most of the "work" displayed here is eye wateringly good. There are some beginners that are almost as good as those who have done it for 5 years. So talent plays a large part. However, Just being able to draw a pattern, get it layed out on a hunk of steel, then just "cut the lines" is a really big thing. You will improve greatly by doing all these things frequently.
Then when you do the chain maille thing you can put on a brass, stainless, steel plate on it with their info engraved thereon.
Get out the tissue and the bandaids and Welcome!
