I understand that many years ago (like late 70s/early 80s)
some mebers of the Society for Creative Anacronism made some
chain mail out of coat hanger wire.  They then took it down
to an archery range and had some target practice (AFAIK,
nobody was *wearing* it at the time).  Even with the very
soft metal used in coat hangers, the chain mail was quite
resistant to penetration by the arrows.
