By hand from Aluminium using a hacksaw and files, took 10 hours, 1 per link and 1 to polish. My first attempt at "jewelry" not sure its my forte. Its a bit industrial looking I know, cant imagine why! :D

(the pins are not 100% done in that pic)

Looks done to a high standard (apart from the one pin that sticks out, but as you say, not quite finished). Definately "robust" looking, but not tacky or anything. Good job :)
 
Looks quite good actually but the links are rather on the large side arent they? then again its a lot harder to work on a smaller scale i suppose.
 
as an achievement its impressive, i dont like it though. then again male jewellery is not my thing

:)

I know a lass that had or has a bike chain bracelet and it looked very nice.

just like this one

Oh yeah to the OP, that looks very nice, tho one with shorter links but more of them would be well nice.

Is this the first of the "OcUK jewelry line? :D

That looks pretty good. I wouldn't wear it but I reckon a few of my mates would look at that in a shop.
 
thanks for the comments, i agree twice as many links half the size would probably look better, but that would have been 20 hours and I wasnt sure at the time if I was wasting my time and it'd look pants in the end. ive been wearing it for a week or so now and im still not sure if I like it.

I prefer it like that rather than smaller links. Would look a lot more feminine with smaller links IMO.
