Thanks for the information George it's all helpful to me too
One question tho - the saw you use, is it specifically a "jewellers" saw?
Oh, actually, a second question - whats the smallest size ring you've used for chain maille - I mean inner diameter and wire gauge?
I have loads of knitting needles for various sizes of inner diameter rings - I tried my local charity shops and they didnt' have any so I bought some - of course, should have realised that I should have asked my mum!! Picked up some extra sizes from her last week and I could have got everything I needed from her.

Anne, you can also use a coping saw - it's not as comfortable to use as a shallower frame, but works fine.

this site has knitting needles in different sizes, and they're fast on postage! much cheaper than buying from a knitting shop:
