Metal scales, for armour or jewelry.
To make these scales into fabric for clothing or armour, the following rings are needed:
Large scales: 1.6x8.2 mm
Small scales: 1.2x5.0 mm
Mini scales: 0.8x2.8 mm
Stainless steel is best for this, since it is strongest. You will need about twice as many rings as scales.
