Chain diameter is it ID or OD
#1
Greetings everyone. I am trying to shore up my kit, but am a little confused.

Have been reading different things, and it seems that things talk about 5th and 6th century chain at the time in various mm's, but they rarely state if it is in ID or OD.

Thinking of purchasing some welded chain, but I dont want to get stuff that is to small and wont look right.

Anyone shed some light on this? The stuff I was looking at, is 5.3mm OD, which have read some things that might be in range, but I am so used to 9mm stuff I have had in the past, and I cant even remember if that was ID or OD.

Thanks for your time.
John Tibbs
