Isn’t communism beautiful?
Yes free starvation.
Man U have a skill, A skill the world should know I have mad respect for u man
Char Everyone loves it and the views compared with the like is ridiculous 1/100 person liked. Cmon guys show your support!
Char I'm almost done with the ring and I used a file it takes a little skill to make this ring
Such a robust yet elegant design ☺ This video is giving an itch to make one my own. Great video!
This is nuts ...
I'll see myself out
sir.(And/or madam). it may have taken six months but the obnoxious police have sent me to bring you in for that beautiful but horrifying pun.
LOL
Dobai1 thanks
did you just.... stop the lathe with the carbide tip still on the work piece? MADLAD!
sayan das why is that bad? ( I actually don't know)
Something about stopping the lathe slightly changing the position of the carving tip so that it is no longer a smooth cut I'd imagine
Doesn't matter for shit actualy ;)
I don't have a lathe so I'm not an expert, but I think it has to do with the fact that if the spin is slow, the bit won't cut well, and since the bit is stationary it would either mess up the bit or it would mess up the ring.
Never thought I like jewlery! I dont wear any except my weding ring. But you really have a lot of cool one dude! Also very nice video, so many usefull simple tips.
Sir, your tutorial is super easy to follow, stacked with information and generally well done, yet the ring looks fabulous! That is a work of art! I'd venture a guess it's one of the best videos/tutorials on TH-cam, and I have already watched quite a few. Hats off. Liked and subbed, now headed to your channel to see more.
I've made wooden rings before, but I'm excited to try making a metal one, thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for this idea! I tried using a dremel at first but it was taking forever. However, it turns out a drill press does the trick quite nicely. I now have myself a perfect little pinky ring. I'm going to sand it and give it a black oxide finish tomorrow.
I said it before and I'll say it again, you sir are an artist! Just found you channel and watched a lot of you videos. Gotta say, everything you've done that I've seen is exquisite straight like that! Such quality! I wish I could make my own rings! Could one video possibly make a Lantern glow ring from the DC Lantern universe?! Any color would be cool especially a black or red Lantern ring!
Upcycling is dope.
That's an awesome idea for a cool ring!!! Looks really cool!
This is cool. I had my wedding band tatooed on, in the form of a nut, with my anniversary date on three faces, m/d/y. Helps me remember :D Could see you doing that here and maybe even more detail...
I'm now watching all the videos on your channel. These are so cool!
intently fell in love with your work. inspires me to try and make my self a sick black ring
This is literally the coolest thing ever
Very good work! Love how it turns out. Excited for the next one
idea, dunno if good: fill the cuts with glowing acrylics?
im officially saving up to invest in the tools and such to start making some of these amazing creations and hopefully creating my own design you are awesome man.
this inspired me to make a ring out of a ball bearing
I can't even thank you enough for the great videos not to mention your amazing skills
Amazing work... Thanks for sharing!
I have a few rings from nuts and its pretty easy to make them.
That was so cool. I really appreciated this video.
Love the creativity. Would love to see you do more videos building your awesome inlay rings but from hexnuts and not just inlays. Even though inlays are easier and far quicker.
Curious as to how long the clear enamel lasted before it required a replay to prevent the rust.
Winry Rockbell would love this
Al should give this a shot
Hi, nice video! If you do the cuts before heat+oil, you get the oxidation to indents, which is a bit easier in that order. However, great end product!
You can blacken steel and iron by quenching it in NaOH (be careful NOT to spill it on Yourself!), I'm using 10% solution (that's about 2,5 moles per liter). It shouldn't discolor after heating, so You can have black patina + rainbow oxidation.
looks awesome!
Nice work
love it ! awesome stuff
awesome account! love all the rings you make
I have seen your website your rings are AWESOME but how much is that bolt now $500-$600 lol
Your very talented
so.. idk if you do but.. you should sell these because I want one and I don't have the tools to make one myself lol
he does and they are pretty costly
His site is very expensive and for good reason. But Check out etsy or ebay or just Google it... I looked before and I don't remember seeing them black but you could always heat it up and quench it. And there normally less than 50 dollars.
he sells rings but that bolt will probably cost you $600.00 lol
Syd Stephen 🤢🤢🤢
Yeah he sell'em alright and unfortunately all his rings seem way over priced IMO but hey it is his time and EVERYONE knows Time is MONEY so his time is worth A LOT I guess -I mean no disrespect if he can get that kind of money that is Great!!- but I'll just make my own-I really like the Glow type so those are the ones I will make first
You should do a nut ring where you dunk it in oil and heat it after for that multicolored look. I absolutely love your work everything I've seen so far I'd give it five stars.
allison ruth if he didn’t hear it before it wouldn’t have turned black
Patrick do you use the Metal Lathe for the wood turning too ?
I already have a 7" x 14" mini Metal lathe -do you see any problems using it to make
wooden Rings along with inlays and of course Metal Rings? I can't see any issues
except lots of wood dust instead of metal shavings = more clean up.
Love the videos, keep it up!
You should make one where you keep the rusty look on the outside. That would look sick!
That's so cool
Eyyyy keep it up ^^ as I said I'm always here hahaha
love it...
This was a sick design 😊 gonna to have to find me a nut big enough for my finger. Keep up the great work
Do you ever use MEK to clean metal? Instead of oil, would Bacon Grease work? Have you tried powder coating instead of a clear-coat?
If I were to use a dremel what kind of bit would I need? I can't imagine sanding it down. I have quite a large variety of bits, so what would you use?
Maybe make a batch of them and throw them in a tumbler before you clear coat? It has some sharp edges that will probably catch on something.
Tell people its a bolt from the titanic.
Should try color case hardened finish
You just gaind a Subscriber :D
Man I have a huge hand and it's taken me months with a file.. But I will definitely do that oxide treatment!
Love the ring!! Does anyone know what size nut he used? Thanks
Would this work with a Zippo? Saw a cool one but they were asking $100, I have a newer stainless one that I bought for $10.
My question: How would a person still have any fingers if the ring's taken that much damage?
Fair enough. Cool video, by the way.
Mr.Dr.Kaiser punching robots with a hand full of rings
Maybe they can regrow them at that point
Is there any danger cutting into a hardened nut? Wouldn't it shatter from the stress after quenching? Or is it too thick for it's size to have to worry about that?
Dude you should make a ring out of an automatic watch movement!! Like cut out the watch movement into a ring blank from the water jet!
have you ever tried a mustard patina or gun blue?
this ring gives a +1 to all strength rolls
Can your lathe do wood as well or is it recommend you use metal
How loud are lathes? I’m thinking about buying one and making a station in my room.
What brand cutters are you using?
Lit
Yo do you make those on your site cause I’d love to buy one?
The noise the camera catches from the lathe sounds like a radio transmission
Any idea how to make rings like the ones lee brennan design makes?
I hope you get a better high speed camera soon, this was a great vid!
Well yeah zhe ring looks cool. Bus after waearing it for a day it will rust like crazy and yout finger will therefore turn red. Have fun with that.
What size hex nut did you use i cant find any that seem big enough?
what type of oil do you quench it in?
Any tips on how to get rid of the "rusty" smell ?
What kind of lathe do you have
killllled it
Use a non-toxic oil to quench. Not engine oil.
desulv engine oil is made to withstand high heat. Non toxic oil would light on fire.
Is there any relatively cheap method of protecting a normal steel ring from rusting? i have a songring from etsy which is not out of stainless steel and it gets rusty prettty quickly inside
I would like to know as well...any idea?
SwallekDVK Polish it and give it clearcoat
SwallekDVK paint it with paint for metal gates or clear coat it.
You could try seasoning it like a pan.
or drench it in oil
How much would it cost for you to make one if we sent the materials for the rings?
This lad sounds like Sethbling! Oy good job lad!
I wanna make rings. Bit I'm a teen and don't have tools so I'll stick to making nothing till I have a job
what size hex nut to use if your ring size 8?
where did you get you carbon fiber from
can you use used motor oil? or do you need clean oil.
Patrick Adair Designs that was fast XD thanks for the reply.
Used motor oil works just fine. Tried it this morning.
Do you sell or would sell these or your site?
why dont you ever use any cutting fluid or at least a cutting wax, your tools will last so much longer and you cuts will be much cleaner.
He does..
could you quench in used motor oil?
Brian South yes
Yes it makes it blacker
What size he
xnuts were used?
Please how much for one of these?
Hey Patrick, I made one of these out of a stainless steel nut and when I did the black oxide finish the inside is fully black but there is hardly any black on the outside it is mostly just grey with a slight brown tinge. I reheated it and dipped it again but there was no difference. How come the outside won't go black? Also when my dad was heating it he had the ring in the flame, I noticed u were holding it infront of the flame, wen my dad was heating it white stuff started to form around it, could any of these reasons contribute to why the outside isn't black? And is there a way to fix it and make the outside black?
I had already sanded it down before hand and polished it but I didn't use any kind of polishin compound, just the soft material tip on a dremel drill. Do u have Facebook or Instagram? I can send you a picture of it
its cause you used stainless bud, go find a rusty one, that will work better
cairan apa untuk menghitamkan ring itu?
When his dremel makes you think of the dentist and you cringe! 😝haha
You should try a heart ring
yo mate, what size is that hex nut?
Is it safe for the skin?
I got to find I need to know how to fix it
What about that cutting tool, that you cut the threat.
7:52 lol
Make a video showing how to bore it out without a lathe. Most people do not have lathes.
Awesome. Build it and they will come!
well i guess i will make myself a ring after work tomorrow.
4:20 My preciioouusss.
Why don't you use a large drill bit instead of a boaring bar?
can i send you a hex nut and have you do somthing similar?
is it possible to make this without the machine?
alright cool
