    That’s because the ends aren’t welded and microgaps can snag everything.

    If you can’t braise aluminum (and most people can’t) then you can use little dots of JBweld in the gaps. Time consuming but 100x more comfortable.

      Huh, my roommate makes chainmail and I’ve never had this issue. Maybe it’s a crafting quality issue, and he’s just really good at keeping the ends together?
