DIY Chain Maille Round Shield Coaster Kit

This DIY kit has everything you need to make 4- 3.25 inch chain maille “Round Shield” coasters. These wonderful coasters are created using a combination of chain maille and leather to create a coaster that resembles a traditional viking round shield.

This is a beginner to intermediate level chain maille project. You do not need any prior experience making maille or working with leather to use this kit, or complete this project, although it does help. All it takes to make these is a couple of pairs of pliers, a leather sewing needle, and a little time.

I also sell a PDF version of the tutorial separately and it can be found here.

This kit includes:

Detailed step-by-step instructions with illustrations for easy reference.

Saw-cut bright aluminum rings in all sizes needed.

4 – welded steel rings

4 – 3 inch craft rings

4 – Pre-cut and punched leather backings

4 – 36 inch strands of 1 mm waxed thread

TOOLS NOT INCLUDED

PLEASE NOTE: Based on my current production volume, I am usually able to ship these kits within 2-3 business days. However this can change, without notice, based on volume of sales and material shipping times. For this reason, I ask that you please allow 1-2 weeks for delivery.

Disclaimer: Bracken Maille has verified that the rings in this kit are weave-able and will work for weaving the Chain maille Round Shield Coasters. All of the rings included in this kit have been cleaned and tumbled to remove any residues or metal flakes, and inspected to ensure minimal chances for dud rings. I bag all the rings by weight, so you are guaranteed a few extra rings of each size, beyond what you should need, in case of slippage or the occasional “lost ring”. I can not guarantee that rings from another supplier, even if they are the “same” size, will be weave-able. I also can not guarantee that your weaving level and ability will be sufficient to effectively weave this coaster.
