Part 1- Starting the 6-in-1 Pattern

Step 1The starting assembly is similar to that of the 4-in-1 pattern, with the exception of the two rings in the center.Hold on to the top ring at the area indicated for the next step.

Step 2Allow the two upper side rings to fall to the sides and flip the lower ring assembly as indicated.

Step 3Spread the starting assembly in the arrangement shown above and identify the first ring with a paper clip orpiece of string and/or a radioactive tracer. The apprentice will note that the paper clip in the above drawing isshown without the radioactive tracer.(It would glow)

Step 4Attach a basic three ring assembly to the bottom ring and flip it as shown in Step 2. This is identical to the4-in-1 pattern.Step 5: Repeat Step 3. Remember to keep flipping the middle rings in the same direction.

Step 5The apprentice should note the gaps between the white rings at the arrows. The upper center ring must beopened and slipped through the lower adjacent side rings. Note how this completes the 6-in-1 pattern for thecenter ring. Continue adding ring assemblies in the above manner until the desired length is reached.

Step 6Attaching the two chains is identical to the 4-in-1 attachment process, with the addition of an extra attachmentshown in the following steps.

Step 7With the side rings attached as shown, note in the black square, and subsequent sites, that the center ring isnot attached on the upper right side. The right side ring should be going over the upper middle ring and underthe lower middle ring like its neighbor to the left. This attachment is most easily viewed and completed byturning the piece over as shown in the following illustration.

Step 8With the piece turned over, the attachment sites are more accessible. With the attachments made, as shown inthe square, the linkage is symmetrical and complete. Make your armor!
