      Been looking through Blender tuts on Youtube and found one that crates a realistic chain link.

      One Torus stretched and subdivided then expanded at one section to create the little weld bump that you see in a link.

      Just copied and pasted then put through the rigid body sim and played.

      Couple of hundred frames in and I thought it looked realistic enough.

      .OBJ format exported through blender.

      [EDIT]--- If somebody wants just a few links dropped through the sim and the rest straight I will happily do it once I have some spare time.

      Enjoy folks.


      This is the finished project from the tut.

          Hi Gilles.

          Thanks for the link never knew about it but It sure looks good but I'm not looking for a request or anything. I have made the model and have uploaded it here to share.

          Scott.
