This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the Straw badge in Metalworking.

Homemade rope is nice but what if you need something a bit stronger?  Let's build some chain by welding the links together!

 
 

Here's a "How it's made" video of the process:


Minimum requirements:
  - Make a chain with at least 6 links
  - The links are complete and welded shut with an electric welder

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - The project underway
  - The completed project
 
I do some of my very best work in water. Like this tiny ad:
