Our dogs stirred up a skunk once… It sprayed the house and the house smelled for DAYS! Lucky it didn’t get the dogs, tho… But I was trying to find a way to wash it off the side of the house, and on a bunch of websites they recommended a concotion of Dawn soap, hydrogen peroxide and something else, I think, but I can’t remember what…
*smacks forehead* I didn’t even think to bring mine! I was just too excited to meet! Dangit! Poor darjeb was running hither and yon while she was here, but we had a wonderful time chatting (and eating… can’t forget the famous KC BBQ!)
The mandril I had borrowed was a big box affair with rods of various sizes… Everything from itty-bitty for jewelry to large rods for the 14 to 18 gauge wire for armor… I’ll see if I can find a pic somewhere. I know I have to have one…
The two pieces I have that are my pride and joy are of 3 gauge industrial copper grounding wire… One of these days I’m gonna get skinny enough I can wear the belt again. The guy who did it was an ex-boyfriend, and I think he hates to this day that I still have it… lol
And I don’t know about you, but I’ve found that electrician’s end nippers work wonderfully for cutting rings… And actually I do the score/break routine, because it gives a cleaner cut to close. I do know some guys that have gotten industrious and actually do the rivet/weld, but GACK!!!!
If you want, pm me and we can chat chainmaille more!!
We now return this thread to it’s original programming… beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep….
