is that AWG or SWG?
because that's a 2.6 AR with SWG and 3.1 with AWG
that's without springback, though, so if it's awg and with enough springback you might be able to pull off a single connector byzantine or something like that, if not than euro 4-1, but if SWG a 2x1 chain or a japanese weave is all i can think of
actually, looking through the weaves, a daisy chain could be possible, and if AWG then jens pind linkage 3 |

Also what metal are you using? I have made Interwoven euro4in1 with 1/8" 18awg (19swg) BA rings, and it came out beautiful!

ok, assuming 1818 rings that are awg, these should be in the region that is best for Byzantine, if there is some additional springback. In case it's a bit tight, omit one of the paired connector rings, so the weave becomes weavable. In case it's 18SWG, then even with springback you'd be in an AR range that allows only few weaves - besides some Japanese weaves (that best work with a second, larger ring size) you are in 'thin air' if asking for easier beginner weaves.
Please tell us the provider and material (or article #) of your rings - maybe some other mailler bought there as well, and knows them, and can tell their precise data already.

Human societies are like chain mail.
A single link will be worth nothing.
A chain is of use, but will break at the weakest link.
A weak weave will have the need to replace weak links.
A strong weave will survive even with weak links included.
