Chainmail Studio

Chainmail Studio — make pictures with your rings.

Chainmail Studio is an inlay design tool for the chainmaille artist who has always dreamed of making pictures with rings. Now you can!

Have you ever looked at a weave and wished you could turn it into a picture? Lay out your rings, drop in an image, and watch your design come to life ring by ring — no more graph paper, guesswork, or counting by hand. From a bold geometric pattern to a full photo-realistic inlay, Chainmail Studio takes you from idea to finished piece with confidence.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

🎨 Paint with rings — Tap to place colored rings on a true-to-weave grid.

🖼️ Image overlay — Drop in any photo or logo and transfer it straight onto your rings. Fit a whole image inside a shape, or map it across the whole panel.

🔷 Geometric fills — squares, hexagons, octagons, triangles, and hearts, with a live preview before you commit.

🎯 True-to-metal color — Colors are calibrated to match real anodized
aluminum, and the supplier screen is what you'llget in metal.

📐 Flexible canvas — Grow or shrink your design edge by edge with simple
+/− controls.

🔄 3D preview — Rotate your weave to see exactly how it reads before you cut a single ring.

🧮 Bill of materials — Get exact ring counts by color so you order the
right amount and waste

📄 Export & share — Save your design and parts list to take to the workbench.
