chain mail

for our group project, i wanted to see if i could make concrete chain mail and hang it. because of a poor Quikrete mixture (which i have never cast with before) and little cooperation fromy my milled foam mold, the pieces of the chain kept breaking. in the end the chain mail was not possible also because of the thickness of the pieces relative to their size.



here is a youtube video on how chain mail pieces link together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI6zqS1SuSg&feature=related


materials: Quikrete mixture, blue foam, vaseline
