Mobius Ball

Weave Description
Mobius Ball is a very unique chainmail weave insofar as it is made out of a number of rings, which will vary according to the ring size, and how loose it is being made. Every ring in this unit passes through every other ring. Generally speaking, larger rings make nicer Mobius Balls. They make great stress toys. The Mobius Ball weave is patented by Mead Simon.

The sample shown uses .080", 1" stainless steel rings, which have an AR of 14.2.
