206 - How to make a flared Spinner Ring - Silversmithing Class

Flared spinner rings are one of the easiest spine rings to make and was something I taught myself how to make within the first few months of picking up my torch.
This style of ring is very popular and has just about an infinite number of ways it can be configured, with different types of metals, patterns, sizes, etc... If you can solder a ring, then you can make this!
The only special tool you'll need is a ball peen hammer and something flat and hard (like an anvil or steel block) on which to place the ring.

Thanks @Gazz_R, and you too

Thank you for explaining everything. Is that the same process to make bands for inlaying or are they bands soldered on?

An inlay style band is going to be a bit different. It typically involves making 4 rings (The inner sleeve, two outer rims, and the inlay band itself.) I have a video on that process here: ruclips.net/video/vXz9luw8N40/видео.htmlsi=-G1aJZzRMieLp53A
