I had been looking for a size 0 ring for my pinkie for over 10 years. Finally decided to see if I remembered how to make them.

This style of ring was a very popular project when I was a 4-H Arts leader.

Now I remember why I stopped making them. A royal pain! Am hoping a larger one will be easier. This one kept falling off the end of the mandrel.

The stone can move about 1/8” back and forth and spin. This feature makes it a fidget ring of sorts.

This one is good enough for me, but not retail quality.

Listen to the rock. The rock knows its destiny. It will guide you in fulfilling that.

I'll bet those would sell because spinner rings are really popular right now or so I've been told.

That means I will have to actually think about what I am doing, lol.

Will take some in progress photos while doing the next one. The key piece of equipment is a ring mandrel.
