Google: the chainmail version

The Official Google Blog sometimes highlights the non-work interests and pastimes of individual Googlers, like this chainmail banner created by data center technician TJ Riley:
For the numbers-minded, here are some details:
  • The entire project is exactly 25,829 rings.
  • Dimensions: 67 units by 44 units (c. 66" x 27")
  • Rings: 1/4" 16-gauge aluminum; the silver is bright aluminum and the inlay uses colored anodized aluminum.
  • The entire thing is the traditional 4 in 1 pattern turned 90 degrees.
