First Links

And so it begins. For weeks to come, I will become a chain making garage hermit, as this is without question the biggest task for this clock. If you look at the first and last link on this segment of chain, you'll notice that they're the same. This six inch piece repeats 20 times.

1080 separate pieces will be machined to create this 10 foot chain. Lucky for me, most of the tools I use for this procedure are quiet enough that I can hear my music. I'm going to need it to break the monotony.
