Here is a technique for getting chain untangled from @some_phenom - “I use some old burs/the smooth end of small drill bits. Make sure they are smooth so they won’t gnar the chain. The idea it to insert the bur into the tangled section and hold it down. Use the other bit to gently pull open the knotted section. Keep working away at it and it will be untangled in no time. works great on fine chain!” 🙏 It’s such an awesome idea to get in there with a small tool instead of pacing around your studio trying to do it with your fingers 🤣🙋‍♀️ Thank you so much for sharing!!
