- Chainmail provides little to no protection against impact damage. As we saw in Fellowship, evil beings who attack heroes in bed use slashing attacks with broadswords or similar weapons. While it might prevent cuts, it’s basically like being beaten with an iron rod that will break bones and rupture organs. It is unsuitable as armor. That’s leaving aside weapons like maces, hammers, and clubs, or a Seal Team Six scenario.
- It’s aluminum. Or aluminium, if you’re that kind of person. This is basically a blanket designed by Jony Ive. It doesn’t warm. It doesn’t protect. But it’s thin and lightweight. Which is the opposite of what you want in a weighted blanket.
- You can buy weighted blankets that come in a variety of weights and warmth characteristics for a fraction of the time investment used to make this. The money you save could be used to buy a home security system that includes a minefield or electric fence. If you’re impressed by what a claymore sword can do to an orc, wait until you see what a claymore mine can do.
I know #1 is a joke but for everyone else in history that's why people wore the aketon, or gambeson or padded/quilted tunic under mail. Provided impact protection and made mail more comfortable!
And the combo of padding + rings was more effective against cutting and blunt weapons than either on their own! And it was easy to maintain, repair, and the mail could be transferred from person to person with some addition or subtraction of rings.
Just all around quality protection.
the point is its supposed to be cool
(temperature wise)
Is this a copypasta?
I think OP is just passionate about this thing. 🤷🏻♂️
Too bad aluminum will oxides and cause black stains on the bed sheets
Pure diamond chainmail for if you really wanna be cold. 10x more effective at heat transfer than copper
Every time I've messed with chain mail it's always felt like it's ripping out my body hair. This looks like torture.
Well, you're not supposed to wear it against bare skin. For suits of armor they wore padded jackets underneath the chainmail.
coil cut cosplay 'chainmail' is NOTHING like actual combat chainmail.
This is why chainmail is always used with a liner. I imagine the guy in the posts uses a sheet or a thin blanket beneath
This is what it means to be a man.
A completely hairless man.
That's because the ends aren't welded and microgaps can snag everything.
If you can't braise aluminum (and most people can't) then you can use little dots of JBweld in the gaps. Time consuming but 100x more comfortable.

Thank you for spelling aluminium correctly.
They were playing both sides
hear me out: tungsten chainmail blanket
Depleted uranium blanket. My sleep paralysis demon is a plutonium sphere.
Magnesium chainmail if you're sleeping on the surface of the sun or next to my tiny girlfriend
I'll say this for the thick girls, they're cool on the outside and don't bitch about freezing. Meanwhile, my 95lb. wife, permanently frozen and shedding heat like a hummingbird.
First thing in the morning, sweating my ass off, legs glued together...
"Babe! Let me embrace you!"
"Get OFF! pant, pant, pant
Haters will say it's too hard to machine
Well, not only men can be on the spectrum!
He is now prepared for the 3am eldenring boss.
nice work, but the guys got some pretty stupid ideas on what 'a man' is
-
pursues his own interest, even if it seems weird to others.
-
brings an idea he cares about from germ to product, even though it’s a lot of work
It’s not so bad!
What is a man?
A miserable little pile of secrets
But enough talk. Have at you!
apparently; a human who likes being weighted down with chainmail
Unless he floats, in which case he’s a witch
I can't judge. I do weird/benign shit like this too. I might even enjoy this if given the opportunity to try it.
