If anyone has ever assembled an Acu Stion link by link 1/12 chain, then please, let me know how you did it.

I’ve spent the last two hours, and I’ve not got a single link assembled. The idea is to cut a 1.2 m thin brass rod, and then cut a 1 m brass tube, and put the rod through the tube, but unless I can shrink myself to handle the small parts, this isn’t going to happen for me. Unless there is a trick, and I’ve missed it. Ive already bent nearly all the brass rods supplied, lost five links, and lost my temper. It's too small to handle, even with tweezers, I cannot grip the parts.. I think I've taken on something here, that my hands cannot handle. Ideas bigger then my skill sets, as always...

I’m very close to quitting on this.. Sod the £20 it cost to have a go, it’s almost the work of the devil to assemble..

Many thanks..
