Hi , Do any of you good garden railway modellers know of anywhere I could purchase some brass chain , I’m after round links not oval the same thickness as the standard 16mm brass oval coupling chain and would require the outer diameter of the circle link to be between 8-8.5mm
If Anyone knows of any I would be most grateful for the info
Cheers Malc

Hi and welcome to the forum.
You could try Cornwall Model Boats, they do all sorts of chain but no idea if they have what you are looking for.
