On the art of Chainmaille - making a coif part 3

Right, we are down to the top piece. Here is a finished one. The top is the most complex part of it, so it's making will be shown separately.



We start attaching it. Might be best to put something inside.


And we are done in no time.



Now we have a completely usable coif, but we are not finished yet.



There is one last bit to attach and that's the mantle, but we will get to it soon.

    You just need several days(especially with a helping hand) to get it done.
