Your video inspired me, a total rookie, to make over a dozen of these rings so far using the same tools you did. A few key takeaways for those following the video's instructions: 1) Keep your blade sharp!! If your blade is even the slightest bit dull, you are likely to shatter the ring core as you shave down the surface area or final width. (Ask me how I know - ha ha :) In my experience, you need to sharpen your tools at least once during the process of making one ring. And if you have one of the carbide tip "easy tools" like I do, rotate the tip after only a couple rings. They don't stay sharp very long. **Best advice: Get a small bench grinder for about $65 at Home Depot or Lowes. You're gonna need it. 2) For final finishing, I suggest a few layers of the green bottle epoxy instead of the pink bottle of stain that Mike uses. If you use that pink bottle, the ring will soon break down and fall apart after getting it wet a few times. Add a layer of epoxy, spray it with accelerator, sand lightly with 400 grit, and repeat 3-4 times. It'll look just as nice and be much more rugged. 4) One of the wood blanks Craft Supplies USA sells is called Ironwood. It's tough to cut and will dull your blades even faster. If you order wooden blanks, call their office and ask the customer service rep for softer wood cores, at least to start. 5) If you order the acrylic blanks to make a ring (not shown in this video but available from Craft Supplies USA), be prepared for a really bad smelling process. Those acrylic cores make a stringy mess and smell terrible as you turn them. 6) When you're hollowing out the core to size, press gently. With a little practice you'll feel the cutting tool reach the double-sided tape. 7) You may find your ring core hole gets narrower as you bore toward the waste block. That's OK! Instead of boring the whole core at once, switch back and forth between boring the center hole and scraping back the front surface of the wooden block.
you are very clever I shall never forget you
For the past 6 months I've been watching tutorials like crazy but none of those can be compared to your video. I'm so proud of you son.
just bought a bunch of these bushings, they are pretty useful.
Nice job, looks great!
Thank you very much for presentation, wonderful!
You are real professional create bro....
Always shinny forever good luck
Beautifulll work😍👏
Simplesmente FANTÁSTICO 👍👏👏👏👏, anel de madeira isso eu não tinha visto ainda não desta forma, incrível seu trabalho....
Loved it❤
I've made a couple , but I find it rather difficult to use the skew and open the hole up to accept the ring. It's very difficult to cut straight in. You should offer drill bits that are exact size of the OD of the ring for a good fit.
Smooth clean immarginative🤗
tganks for sharing nice rings
thank you grate video i like the nice rings
I knew I was going to like this - before I even started the video!! Gorgeous Work!!
