@Matthew you should know about sweating through shirts, matt

2018-01-13 21:59:31 UTC  

yeah id actually wash chainmail often to prevent it from rusting

2018-01-13 21:59:42 UTC  

its stainless steel

2018-01-13 21:59:55 UTC  

I actually don't sweat very much

2018-01-13 22:00:03 UTC  

Us floridians are used to heat

2018-01-13 22:00:53 UTC  

"heterosexuality is a social construct" lol, who makes this trash. This is why people are homophobic

2018-01-13 22:01:09 UTC  

people are homophobic because homosexuals are a minority

2018-01-13 22:01:17 UTC

2018-01-13 22:01:20 UTC

you're not supposed to wash carbon steel chainmail regularly

2018-01-13 22:02:36 UTC  

oh

2018-01-13 22:29:26 UTC  

kill niggers

2018-01-13 22:30:08 UTC  

is this costume maille or more serious reenactment/hema/sca/whatever maille, basically do you want something that looks okay at a glance or something "Real"

2018-01-13 22:31:24 UTC  

because if you want something more authentic than costume butted maille cheap isn't a thing

2018-01-13 22:32:35 UTC  

think its for utilitarianism

2018-01-13 22:32:53 UTC  

inauthentic everything from the welding to the materials

2018-01-13 22:33:04 UTC  

as in you want it for actual armour?

2018-01-13 22:33:08 UTC  

just buy some kevlar lol

2018-01-13 22:33:36 UTC  

will likely be cheaper than maille good enough to call armour

2018-01-13 22:33:55 UTC  

but its low maintaince and pretty light while being thinner than most stablroof vests

2018-01-13 22:33:56 UTC  

everyone makes shit butted costume maille to sell because riveting the links is way more labor intensive

2018-01-13 22:34:04 UTC  

its welded

2018-01-13 22:34:09 UTC  

butted mail is not _remotely_ stab proof

2018-01-13 22:34:13 UTC  

you need riveted rings for that

2018-01-13 22:34:31 UTC  

welded... depends on how good the welds are

2018-01-13 22:34:56 UTC  

if it's little electrical wire welder spot welds sort of shit, no better than butted

2018-01-13 22:35:24 UTC  

suppose I could order some, stab it and then post results

2018-01-13 22:35:25 UTC  

will protect from cuts, but not a stab

2018-01-13 22:35:30 UTC  
2018-01-13 22:35:43 UTC  

ok yeah i wouldn't trust that tbh

2018-01-13 22:35:47 UTC  

seem to be prett strong welds

2018-01-13 22:36:03 UTC  

also, thing about maille

2018-01-13 22:36:16 UTC  

if you want to actually wear it, it has to be fitted to you

2018-01-13 22:36:28 UTC  

rivets aren't much stronger as its mild steel tbh

2018-01-13 22:36:58 UTC  

it also looks awfully thin

2018-01-13 22:37:03 UTC  

mail is as strong is other links

2018-01-13 22:37:08 UTC  

not _neccesarily_ bad, but

2018-01-13 22:37:12 UTC  

about distributing force

2018-01-13 22:38:12 UTC  

which only weorks while the rings are all connected, if you can split them, well, stops being effective
