@Kasi Great chat, Kasi. Really inspiring.

I will keep checking stock and market till it's on my wrist.

@Kasi they cover them now

Are the chain links a different shape on the model 10 from the curb chain?

Some photos make the model 10 links look tighter together with less space between as well as smoother overall. Still, other photos make them look the same. Curious to hear from those that own both.

@Go-For-Chill Yes, the links are different. If I recall correctly, the curb links are bent and the Model 10 links are cast.

This is my understanding as well. The curb chain is wire wrapped around a spool, cut, formed, and hammered flat. If you look at GAH’s IG far enough back I’m pretty sure there are pics of the many links on the casting form.

I think I'm doing the Good Art thing backwards. Instead of researching specific items, I came across different videos, interviews and podcasts with Josh Warner and now I'd really like to carry something made by this wonderful person.

Does anyone have a paqueño a mano necklace? I’m wondering how rosettes and pendants fit on them.

@Danimal506 here's a pic of a pendant on a gb pam

@Danimal506 The problem is for any GAH pendants with a smaller loop for pendant. I have the small GAH St Christopher medal with sapphires and I had to use a GAH ball chain because the loop is just to small to travel freely over the PaM chain.

You can see how it "pinches" on the PaM, but has plenty of room on the ball chain.

Personally, this is exactly why I like the pam; it prevents pendants from sliding around too freely.

[Danimal506]

@paris75009 That’s exactly what I was concerned with. Thanks for the help

@pechelman interesting how I’m the opposite. I would get annoyed with it not moving freely!

I have the pequeno a Mano and wouldn’t put a pendant on it personally. I don’t think the clasp is strong enough. The clasp on mine will pop open randomly with regular wear so I wear the clasp at the bottom front of the necklace. It’s a bit of a delicate piece compared to the more durable clasps GAH is known for.

[pechelman]

if the clasp pops open randomly it needs adjustment. I have a few things with this style clasp and it's never popped open unless i pry at it. Even then they can be stubborn sometimes, especially in the notso or larger sizes.

@jdwaid @pechelman I have had this same issue myself. It has fallen into my t shirt a couple times.
I wonder if it is a problem associated w a specific run of production?
