    Seems like you would want to use stainless steel instead of aluminum if you’re going for weight.

    Edit: Yes I realize there are better conductors of heat but for the sake of using corrosion resistant welding materials I went with stainless.

    Fuck, now I want to get into making chainmail. Time to pick up another hobby I guess.

      Have you ever worn chainmail without an undershirt? Or gambeson? It feels neat at first. Never had to worry about pinching. It didn’t grab any hair. The metal will feel cool and smooth all night. But oh Lord, the awful pain it will bring to unprotected virgin nipples. Like surfing for a hundred years without a rash guard all in one hedonistic night concentrated on the area less than two dimes. NEVER AGAIN. A couple bandaids or pasties the next time and all is good.

      I think you’ll be fine with just a top sheet between you and the chainmail.

    They make loosely braided weighted blankets. They won’t be as cool as this, but they allow for plenty of weight while still maintaining good airflow. And a far lower risk of scrotum/labia/nipple tragedy.

        Risk of Labia

        Risk of Nipple

        Scrotum Tragedy

        Labia Tragedy

        Nipple Tragedy

        Far Lower Scrotum

        Far Lower Labia

        Far Lower Nipple (uh?)

        Lower Scrotum Tragedy

        Lower Labia Tragedy

        Lower Nipple Tragedy (ok, idk who had a lower Nipple but it’s weird that it’s in the list twice)

        Lower Risk Scrotum

        Lower Risk Labia

        Lower Risk Nipple

        Shit, this might be the biggest combo of band names in a single sentence I’ve ever seen
