I have got to make one of those. Thanks for the video. I always enjoy them. You make me smile.

[@CraftSuppliesUSA]

Thanks for the great video Tim!

[@LewisKauffman]

Gorgeous turning, Tim!

[@huwdavies5264]

Lovely ring Tim. Cheers, Huw

You need to put up a dedicated hook for your wedding ring so when you take it off in the wook shop you always put it in the same place. That way you don't loose you ring when you take it off! 👍👍

[@jackreeves3001]

Good video as always. Thanks for sharing!

Looks like your backyard rainbow led you to the magic ring Frodo. Very nice project.

[@carolriley569]

Beautiful ring!

[@laceyhansen1815]

Love your videos, always makes me chuckle as you seem to be having so much fun. Where can I get the ring blanks?
Thank you for sharing.

[@arthurbarber4091]

beautiful ring.

[@alanscannell]

Great job tim. I might make a wooden ring mandrel for holding the likes of this myself 👍

[@tomasarguinzoni9022]

Very cool Ring 👍🏼

[@robertblitch4702]

I really like the idea

[@jasonwerner5897]

Very cool now I got to make one

[@allanwolfe6071]

Been thinking about doing a ring. Thanks for the video. Tip: I like to wet my micromesh on plastic projects (CA I guess counts). The grit doesn’t clog and it polishes better. Also keeps the surface cooler, if that would really matter here.

[@Uncle_Buzz]

Awesome. Trying to figure out if this is 3-drink Tim, or 4-drink Tim.

[@daletprescott3458]

Sure is a nice ring you made there. Thanks for taking the time to show how to make it.

[@pauldejesus9644]

nice ring what sanding papers are u using

[@billyallmon5039]

I think it’s darker because of metal contamination

[@marklengal9990]

What should I normally due with waxed wood after I buy it? Just turn off the wax then dry it?

[@ronh9384]

Cool video as always. The ring turned out great.
I like big rings and I can not lie..... 😊
Do you have a favorite lathe chuck or brand of chuck you like to use?

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

Very nice! How long does it take to get used to, on your finger? Is it comfortable initially or did it take some time?

[@sergenisot809]

[@lonewolfcry]

So I'm having a problem with the double stick Tape I purchased The recommended style of double stick tape for wood turning what type of tape did you use

[@woodturningwithtimyoder]

I am not sure what brand it is. I got it from Woodcraft years ago.

[@lonewolfcry]

@@woodturningwithtimyoder Thank you for the assistance. Does the waste block matter what is made from?

[@lonewolfcry]

@@shawntackaberry2546 thank you

[@woodbyfire308]

nice ring, i can't wait to get back to my shop after my work trip, plan on making several of these. What kind of double sided tape do you use?

[@woodturningwithtimyoder]

I am not sure what brand it is. I got it from Woodcraft years ago.

[@ronh9384]

Timothy Mulvaney The place the ring kit came from carries it as does pretty much any woodworking store. It’s called turners tape. Make sure your don’t use carpet tape as the adhesion level is way to high.
If you are turning a delicate piece and are concerned about breaking it when you remove it from the tape use a syringe and dribble acetone on it. Just protect the lathe bed from it as the acetone and tape mix can make the bed a little sticky.

Would love a more feminine version of this.

[@peterleffler2062]

Try using Yorkshire Grit then YG Microfine instead of all those micromeshes. It'll save you loads of time and give as good or better finish. You'll get it from The Walnut Log at www.thewalnutlog.com/

[@woodturningwithtimyoder]

I have a tub of microfine but could not find the regular. I know it is in the shop somewhere but it managed to avoid my efforts to find it. I needed the regular to get the microfine to work. I tried just the microfine but it could not reach a high polish as the surface was too rough. That is why I went the other way with the micromesh and polish. Once I find my other tub I will use it on the show.

[@peterleffler2062]

@@woodturningwithtimyoder Aaah! A senior moment! We all have them 🤔.
You'll probably find your wedding ring sitting on top of the pot! 😂

[@SaposJoint]

Not awesome. Not even good. No thanks.

[@aaronkromhout6091]

Glad to see you repurposing a medical spatula for mixing epoxy. I hope the other end wasn’t used first.

[@zetuskid]

Tim, has the fake ring settled things around the homestead? Lol

[@reforzar]
