    OK, you've really got me curious! How did you make chain? Will you share the MPC?

    here's the chain programs. i had to run chains1 first, then chains2. if i combine the 2 programs, it carves out the outer part fist, then the inner, and the whole thing breaks off. of course i use pine, so that may be why.

    i make them out of 3/4" pine, then cut them in half with my cheapo bandsaw.

    then i round off all the edges with my belt sander and dremel.

    the "trick" is to take a razor blade and cut every other link in half, then glue the assembly together. use rubber bands or small clamps to clamp it together.

    it's a lot of work, but i like the payoff.

    thank you pine acres.

    for me it's an excellent use for a lot of my scrap wood.

    That is very clever. Looks really nice after you got done.

    They both look great. My software doesn't have the Angel pattern. Would you share it?
