@@DreamwoodRings I also got gold tungsten and black ceramic blanks for you. Can you tell me if the gold tungsten is gold throughout, or is it gold coated? Meaning, if I sand the edges, am I going to see silver or will it stay gold? Thanks in advance!
@@hobbycow5346 It is just plated gold. Go to my main channel and go to my shorts. I have a quick 60 second video on the gold tungsten rings you should take a look at.
@@DreamwoodRings Thanks! Though the one gold tungsten ring I made held up well to cutting sanding and polishing. None of the gold plating came off! So they must be a very high quality vs. the gold plated stainless blanks from Amazon. Are you getting size gold 8 and 11’s back in stock soon?
Fascinating, thank you for posting. You probably have more than enough metal-working skill to make ammunition from brass if you felt like it...😆what a cool skill to have!!
That is a hard question to answer because we sell a wide variety of rings and other things. So I could say several thousand, but we do not make every ring we sell. 🤔
@@ErvinandMFantasyFootball yeah, that is why I tried the gold tube which worked well, just more expensive. I did save all the gold shavings though at least.
Got tungsten Koa rings in Hawaii for my wife’s and I vow renewal and wanted to see how they were made. Thanks for the video!
Amazing! Congratulations and thank you for watching. 😁
I recently go a koa insert ring from you. It is beautiful! Workmanship is flawless! very happy!
Wow, thank you! I am happy to hear!

Ha thank you! :D
Nice mix!
Glad you like it!
You're good, man!
I appreciate that!
Great explanation. Could you please tell where you did get the gold blank for the bigger ring?
You can try the ring blanks here. shopdreamwood.com/pages/custom-ring-builder
Or you can try and find someone local to cast one for you.
Great video thank you. Where do you buy the parts that goes on the lathe? Thank you.
Thank you! Look for collette chuck and ring mandrels.
What lathe chuck are you using in this video? I am trying to get one to hold the outside of the ring as I bore the inside. Thank you!
I am using a nova chuck with soft jaws you can get from our website! The nova chuck is the one around $80
Very nice!
Thank you!
Nice video:) so you don’t have to glue it to the ring or anything?
At 6:46 we use thick CA glue to place the koa wood into the gold.
Sorry don’t know how I missed that!
Nice
Thank you!
could you link the place you got the channel ring from?
We have a local shop that casts some of them for us.
How many rings do you sell each year?
That is a hard question to answer because we sell a wide variety of rings and other things. So I could say several thousand, but we do not make every ring we sell. 🤔
Hello dear and what is the name of the wood
This is Hawaiian koa wood.
Hey man, do you mind suppling the company you got the gold ring with channel?
I got that one from RIo Grande
@@DreamwoodRings I saw they had some like this, but they were out a few days ago when I was pricing.
@@ErvinandMFantasyFootball o dang I've never seen them out of it before, That is sad. It is anywhere between $240-300 I think.
@@DreamwoodRings yeah, an excellent price. They barely charge beyond the material. I only wish they did a 4mm & 8mm version as well.
@@ErvinandMFantasyFootball yeah, that is why I tried the gold tube which worked well, just more expensive. I did save all the gold shavings though at least.
You didn't show the gap where the cut is, is it visible and how much so?
It is not visible, it just lines up to look like wood grain. 😁
Wish I had watched this video before I attended the gold-plated tungsten
Gold plated tungsten is tricky! Definitely need to be safe with it.
Would you be able to make one with wood from a very special tree that I can send to you? I sent you an email earlier
Yes I can! I am emailing back now.
