Spiderchain Tin
A great chainmail kit box. Big enough for your pliers, rings, and current jewelry projects.
Lunchbox style with a carrying strap on one end and the Spiderchain logo on the front.
5½" x 4" x 2½"
Alas! I tried to re-order this item and my supplier no longer carries this size of tin. Well, they
do carry it, but minimum count is 3000 pieces. I've been looking for an alternative, but haven't found one
yet - keep your fingers crossed... (And let me know if you want thousands of tins!!!)

Rectangular Tin
These are the tins I use for organizing my rings. They're the same size as Altoids tins, but the surface is completely blank. I write
the ring size on the ends of the tins in sharpie marker and then make any notes about good weaves on the lid. Four of these plus two pair
of Lindstrom pliers fit very handily in a Spiderchain Tin. For long-term storage, I use card boxes from the local comic book store. Perfect fit!

Lindstrom Pliers
These are the pliers I use and love. Chain nose, with an extra small tip (the smallest I've been able to find).
That small tip makes them perfect for working with tiny rings or getting into tricky places in any weave.

Lindstrom Ergonomic Pliers
If you like working further back on your pliers handles, then these are very comfortable tools.
Great jaw quality and adjustable springs.
I don't use them myself because my technique calls for scootching way up toward the jaws.

Economy Pliers
If you don't use small rings, or you're not sure you're going to stick with chainmail then these pliers
will probably be just fine. They're pretty good quality, but not world class.

Economy Ergonomic Pliers
Very soft action with extra-long handles. Good tip size too.

Wooden Pliers Block
Great for keeping your pliers organized and in easy reach. Holds eight pliers, but please
note that the Lindstrom Ergonomic pliers don't fit (handles too thick).

Teeny Tiny Pliers
These pliers are all of 3 inches long.
They're only passable quality, and I'd go crazy using them for hours on end, but
they fit in your wallet! Your back pocket!
Your hat brim!
