My new hobby :- I would like to produce Silver Charm Bracelets with
crystals and hand blown beads. Would like to buy in silver link chain
on a roll and the other various components in order to do this.  I
have no idea How to make such an item or the tools and components
required to do so.  Would also like instructions on doing this.

I highly recommend the following site:

http://www.firemountaingems.com/

In addition to the supplies that you will need such as silver chain,
pliers, wire cutters, crystals, headpins and findings such at clasps,
the website also has a great deal of information about how to do
things.  I'm not sure they have handblown beads, but they do have
beautiful glass beads.

Best of luck!

(currently, the site seems to be down, but their customer service
number (800) 423-2319 says it should come back soon.  In the meantime,
try this link for a taste of what they offer:

Jewelry-making is not something that is easily learned over the
Internet. You may want to find local help. If you ask around at small
shops that carry handmade items, you may be able to find someone who
can tutor you. Some cities have classes in various kinds of jewelry
crafts.

I agree enthusiastically with the comment above. I make my own
jewelry, and have used several suppliers. I just love Fire Mountain
Gems. They have a great selection at good prices, and their customer
service is second to none. They produce beautiful catalogs, and they
don't sell your name and address to mailing lists.

Here's their page of bulk silver chain:
