Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/27/2020 5:04 pm Quote: Curious what they used to make the cuts. Looks like a Dremel with cutting wheel attachment. I used one for 10+ years, to cut individual rings off wire I wound up like a spring to make chainmail shirts with for the Renaissance festivals. The cutting wheel is only 0.6 mm thick. Edit - A hacksaw blade might do that also, but you'd have to stabilize the coin in a vise etc. Edited by Grelko 08/27/2020 5:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
