Members SR71 Posted September 25 Members Report Posted September 25 Hi everyone, I am looking for this specific hardware to tether a chain to a trucker wallet. Anyone know any good sites for this type of hardware? Ideally in both solid brass and nickel options. Many thanks! Quote

Hi there, thanks for answering! I’m just wondering where I could source this hardware? Also if you could provide the names of these pieces that great. I know one part is called an eyelet/gromet, but not sure what the long, oval ring would be formally named? Any help is appreciated. Kind regards. Quote
Members BlackDragon Posted September 25 Members Report Posted September 25 These are two separate items; a grommet and a brass chain link. The grommets you can find pretty easily. The individual brass links are going to be harder to source. You can buy a brass chandelier chain and take off links as you need them. Make sure you get a good thickness so it doesn't pull apart.

Anneal some brass rod, bend either free-hand or round a former then heat & squench there ya go!! Then I would coil a whole stick of it around a piece of hardwood or steel after annealing, then cut it down the side making dozens at once. Like they make chain mail.

AlZilla Posted September 25 Report Posted September 25 You can see on the bottom center that it's not joined in any way. Just bent into place. Easy to duplicate since it doesn't need or have any strength.
