After my Zerg Logo Chainmail Inlay Shenanigans, my (and your!) Australian Liquipediac buddy Zodasoda took an interest to this of most manly of hobbies. I'm still trying to get him to go try some stuff out himself (maybe he could use some encouragement guys!) but in the meantime he helped me out a bunch by coming up with a design for the project presented here: the Day[9] logo in chainmail!
Without further a due, let's jump into some pictures first 
A quick run-down of the attributes:
- All rings made of 1mm galvy and brass wire (silver and yellow colours respectively)
- All rings a 3.5mm diameter
- Woven in a European 4-in-1 pattern
- Total of 2006 rings
It's actually the smallest rings I've ever made an inlay with (3.5mm is pretty small lol) but it enbabled me to use a smaller aspect ratio than for the 6mm-ring inlays I usually do which makes the whole thing look really nice. Couldn't get a better overview picture I'm afraid, so you'll have to take my word for it ^^;
Now we get to the whole point of the blog... Sean, if you read this: I'd love to send this over to the Day9 Headquarters. You've contributed a shitton to the community and we don't get to say thank you nearly enough. If you'd like to, we (Zoda and me both) would be happy to add this little something to your already magnificently adorned wall. Thing is, we don't have your address. I've looked and asked around, but to no avail. If you read this blog and would accept this, feel free to drop me a PM! (alternatively, if you think it looks butt-ugly feel free to completely ignore this lol)
To everyone else, enjoy the pics I guess and don't forget to share the link

| Wow. How long did this take to make? I can imagine I'd be struggling for a long time and there would be no BW for quite a while because of the damaged palms, but you've got some practice already. Any idea how many hours it took? Amazing job! |
