I've done both. Here's what I use for chains:
You're better off getting all these things online. Cheaper and more variety. The links are only examples. Make sure you get what you want!
I learned how to do this via how-to videos on YouTube so have a look there. Good luck!
Edit: Saturday morning grammar
I use a few things. I use a FreeKey. to hold my car key, office key, Leatherman P4, & Preon P0. I also have a 6” cable ring that has house keys. The two rings are attached with a small black S binder. It allows me to leave my house keys in the car when I am at work so there is less pocket bulk. The FreeKey is a little thicker than a standard split ring so I have 9mm split rings as spacers on anything that has a small attachment hole.

I believe they are called Wire Keychain Cables. I found some here.

"Misfit, Misfit! Help! This afternoon I was making myself a bowl of ice cream (mint! My favorite flavor!) The phone rang, so I set down my bowel to go get the phone in the living room. By the time I came back, my bowl was almost empty with nothing but a puddle in it's place! I need your help to solve this mystery!"

Okay, so I'm actually planning on doing a Crusader myself next year and I can go into some of what I plan on using. Also keep in mind that while I have done armor before, I am by no means an expert on it, I just know what my preferences are and how I plan on tackling some of the hurdles.
So lets tackle the elephant first, The Armor:
"Armored by faith, driven by duty, bound to kill the enemies of the Zakarum."
Okay, onto a bit easier subject, The Cloth and Leather:
"My faith is rewarded."
My plan for my eternal Phalanx, and this can be debated, The Shield:
"The crusade marches on!"
Last but not least, everyone favorite, The Weapon:
"Do not hesitate to strike down your enemies. Death is their salvation from evil."
That's really all I got. Only other thing I could suggest is to take your time and start early. Some of my friends, and even me sometimes, don't start early and will run around the week before/week of freaking out because we're not done, so don't be like us. Be smart. Oh, speaking of being smart, make sure you use PPE. If you don't know if you need it ask about it. You don't want to be working with something like resin without a mask and get breathing issues in 15 years because you didn't protect yourself. And what ever you do, don't forget:
"Kneel before Zakarum!"
You could lose the multitool and whistle and fit plenty of other useful things in that tin. I'd suggest:
I'd suggest a Victorinox SD pocket knife as a replacement for the multitool.
Honestly, it depends on how many repeats you have per row. I use small markers like this when I'm knitting lace and they don't get in my way at all. Jump rings also work well, as long as you make sure to get a size big enough to fit your needles.
Once you get used to marking your work, you won't even notice them (except for when you need to), and it will be immediately obvious when one of your repeats is off.
Jump ring - your basic ring.
Split ring - basically a mini key ring, and will provide a more secure hold for your key. Both can be found in any craft store, in the jewelry/beading section.

This would be my first choice as an OT (you can find different sizes you’ll just need to search more) it’ll just be harder for a patient to attach to the zipper themselves (depending on finger dexterity and strength) https://www.amazon.com/Split-Rings-Chain-Connectors-Steel/dp/B000OVNRWS

Oh and there’s this site which is good for nerdy and unique gifts
Search around the internet for “split rings”, like another commenter said.
Amazon has some pretty good looking ones, like this. But definitely browse around for something you like.
You could probably also find some at a hobby shop. They’re also used in fishing around that size, but I can’t vouch for the quality.
Edit: it’s still very hard to make out a lot of detail. It almost looks like the fastening on the chain is where the charm is mounted.
The rings could also potentially be jump rings.
Make it how you like. You don’t need to make a carbon copy. You might end up with something even nicer.
These shower curtain rings work really well. You can find split rings and lanyard clips at craft stores or in the crafting section of stores like Walmart and binder rings could also work.
They look and feel pretty nice, too! The lid is garbage though, you'll have to store them somewhere else.
Linky-loo!
Silver Jump Rings!

Thanks for the contest!
I would stock up on essentials first, food, water, nitrous oxide (to give me a brief but temporary high in those especially low times).
Then I'd cloister myself away in my home or some safe, sturdy structure and hit my stockpile of [steel split rings](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OVI0AC?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=httpdarthcont-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000OVI0AC"&gt;50 Split Rings Nickel Plated 9mm</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpdarthcont-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B000OVI0AC" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;") to painstakingly fashion a suit of split ring mail, impervious to zombie claws and bites. They might be able to grab and squeeze the blood out of my skin, but damn zombies will not chomp chunks of my flesh through that, by God.
Of course I'd also keep a shotgun with me to stave off the inevitable zombie rush.
