Ring Repair on the Lathe

These ring blanks can be inlayed with almost anything! In this video I used water recovered birch from Georgian Bay.

Nice work, Heather

Thanks Ward 😊

[@RadioFaceWoodWorks]

Since both of us have the tools...we can each make our own wedding rings😀😀

[@TheMessyStudio]

Nice repair, Heather. Pretty ring.

[@spiritwynd]

Thanks Billy! I'm going to work on dying some soon!

[@PeteTwistedTrees]

I must have a go at rings at some point, thanks for the video

[@spiritwynd]

Thanks Pete! I have a different video showing how I make Bentwood rings. No blanks needed. They are more work but definitely beautiful too!

Thanks Ron! Tell Bonnie that I haven't forgotten about the lighthouse!😶‍🌫️

[@rondesroches3637]

@@spiritwynd no problem I will

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Very nice. Thought I’d have to go back into mine and refinish it but I haven’t. Maybe I’ll remember to seal the edges soon so I won’t have to redo it down the road. They do look good though.

[@spiritwynd]

You definitely have to finish the edges. Just use a tiny bit of ca on a paper towel and repeat at least 3 times! More is better!

In my opinion, I feel there is no REAL glue for attaching wood to the steel rings. CA is a joke.

[@spiritwynd]

I have to agree (somewhat) about the CA . You're really only sticking the wood to itself.
Although, I did try another ring, after this one, by CA gluing shavings to roughed up blank. I didn't like the results and had to use a carbide cutter to remove the glue and shavings
