Hey guys,
I am building the 1/600th scale Academy Titanic and I need to find some decent black anchor chain for it. I am estimating that it is somewhere around 24 links per inch. I have some 40 links per inch, but that is much too small (1/700th scale, IIRC). And I can't remember where I got it at. Any assistance will be appreciated. Thanks.

Ahoy, Kevin!
You can find 1/700 and 1/350 scale anchor chain here, mate...very close to 1/600 scale, but not an exact match........
