I never wear rings partly because I can never find any that fit my dainty little fingers :-) So I made a ring that fits. Need to do a bit more polishing but the soldering is done and it fits. I'm thick. Yup, that's a C cell. Not the best hand model

I like it! timloco been trying to find someone or a "blank" mens ring so I can set some labradorite in it. Nobody wears a size 11 apparently.

That's the nice thing about soldering silver you can make it exactly the size you want. That's just 18 gauge silver cut from a sheet and wrapped in a circle with a bezel and some silver wire soldered to it, a few hours worth of work but I'm a beginner and with practice something easy like that wouldn't take more than an hour I think.

If your finger is "C" cell size I can tell you I don't want to meet you in a dark alley:) Nice ring looks good Tim
