Grin. And if it wasnt't already seconded, I'd like to 'third' it 
And my proposal is: TOOLS (made from maille).

Human societies are like chain mail.
A single link will be worth nothing.
A chain is of use, but will break at the weakest link.
A weak weave will have the need to replace weak links.
A strong weave will survive even with weak links included.

| I once wrapped a stone in a chain maille spike ball. I don't know if that's pointless or not now. |

I will second sculpture. I need to be pushed in that direction. 
Once you stop learning, you stop living, so...
Ask questions.
Try new things.
Share what you know.

MacroMaille. Maille with an ID of larger than 2 inches/5.08 cm.
If at first you don't succeed, try a different aspect ratio. |

xD I think it is armour that wouldn't be usefull... armor that doesn't protect a lot, or that is too heavy to wear, that protects something that doesnt need protection (like chainmaille for a rock). |
Exactly, Kleriker! While I'd like to leave the interpretation up to each entrant's creativity, I was thinking along the lines of fantasy armour, leaving the wearer a bit vulnerable, yet protected in some area. |
