Imagine this... Walking down the street, tum tee tum tee tum, then your necklace catches on a low branch and -- AAAUUGH! = )

ive got a huge box of these... great idea for craft sales. i might make bracelets instead. also, i would grind the inner teeth with a Dremel tool a bit.

I was biking down to my local grocery store a couple days ago and I found three small sized chainsaw chains. I kinda feel bad for the dude who lost them because they're not really cheap.

Looks pretty badass, id keep it away from my jugular though...

Does painting sticks the teeth together?

It makes me wonder about safety. Saw blades are super strong, so I would add a "Weakest Link" so that if it gets caught on something, the necklace would break instead of my neck... By the way, great instructable.
