This quality video is steady, well lit, carefully enunciated, and focused on the work described. No fuzzy, out of focus scenes. The instructor carefully enlarged the materials and tools to better show the work details. Great job! I plan to try this soon!

Exactly! I used to hate the professional jealousy and secrecy of tradesmen, who would NOT show anyone, except the official apprentice, how to do the work and damning their trades to the forgotten bin, when one member of the 'secret' chain died before passing on his knowledge. Very narrow minded and stupid. I'm retired now and have never kept any so-called trade secrets to myself. Knowledge is to be shared and passed on, not hoarded then lost! Great video from a master! I'm still learning and will continue to do so till I die.

If you are into that sort of thing, if you haven't watched them before, I recommend LockpickingLawyer, Steve1989MREInfo, and Shawn Woods. On the more professional end, there's PBS Spacetime, which is possibly my favorite thing to fall asleep to, and Meet the Microcosmos, which is Hank Green, but it's Hank using a supremely calm voice that I've never heard him use anywhere else. Of course, there's always reruns of The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross, but, I've never met a fan of calm voices that wasn't already familiar with his work.

This was a GREAT video! Love how you showed the contrast between the two. I have been using vk for some time now. I use the cut off short "excess" pieces as beads. Making hnd made caps and simply making them into bead links. Also, when a length is too tight, or stiff, you can anneal it. Keep in mind about fire scale and patina effects. But with practice, this can be an added characteristic to the piece. Adding deepth to the chain. Have not yet used any in a wire wrapped piece. Although have contemplated it many times. It would easily lend itself to "heady" pieces. And I am simply not very skilled at that style. I am a little bias towards dainty delicate pieces. And many of my smallest pendants, I put on a three sided viking knit chain. In copper, it has a "soft" feel to it. And yet, exceptionally strong! And since there is no inner void, its almost impossible to crush or kink the chain. And i.posible to break! Something no other thin chain can boast! Just found your channel. Like the clear way you teach. And a very pleasant voice. Going to check out your other vids!

Your video was very well made. Easy to watch, easy to follow and understand. Very nice chains too. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for a great tutorial! I have always liked Viking knit but never knew what it was called, so I couldn't look up how to do it, and I thought it would be a super complicated braid or something, I'm glad to see that it isn't! I think this would be a great way to make my own lengths for larger pieces of tin thread embroidery, but using copper, silver, or gold thread to make my own "wire". Will be extremely fiddly working on such a small scale but I think it could be fun. Thanks for inspiring me!

Fantastic tutorial! I love your work so much. This is easy to do and so beautiful. The Allen /Hex wrench is a great tool, esp with that hook at the end as a handle. So generous of you to share your skills with us. Thank you and greetings from sunny California! 😃💕
