Also, to grind away a lot of material from the inside before sanding, I would recommend getting a round metal filer used for sharpening chainsaw chains, and chuck it to a drill press, or make a rod that you could attach sand paper sheets, it’s cheaper then the dremil parts
Este Glez Best recommendation ever. I spent literally 3 hours and a lot of dremel parts and I didn't reach the desired width. Then I bought a round metal abrasive thing, and finished got 3 rings in 1 hour.
Could you use a drill bit to round out the middle?
@@markfinster1256no, drill bit too slow and it will tend to wander and drift. Rather use a die grinder as it has a much higher rpm so it won't want to drift and kick back. Pop a carbide up cut bit in the die grinder and you will hog out the hex thread in no time and create a lovely smooth inner diameter.
I love this channel so much! Thanks man!
Dude I’m going to try this and make this for my mum for Christmas because she wears a lot of rings so this would be great thank you for the idea
More easy home stuff! (Keep up the other stuff too though!)
thanks patrick this is very helpfull
Oh. My god.
Dude. The inspiration you just gave me is profound.
All of the rings you've made are so freaking awesome!
this is pretty awesome, love the DIY aspect
Great way of making a cool ring that we can all try, thanks man!
Thank you Patrick, I will be doing this shortly. Besides stainless steel, you could use brass or copper hex nuts.
This is a very helpful video for newbies such as myself, it opens up more possibilities for ring making, as always more quality content from you, thanks again and God bless.
I made my own hex ring as i call it. I actually used a hand file for the entire outside and a round hand file on the inside. Both were about 7 or 8 dollars plus my hex nut was a dollar. Also mine was a weird shape and required a lot of filing on something most hexnuts dont have and thats a round second half. It took me 8 hours overall and i suggest using brass as its a bit softer... or zinc. Im working on a zinc ring now.
Sounds like something a mechanic or metal head would like. Especially because of the ease of creation.,
thank you so much for this DIY
This different kind of video is awesome! More, please!
I love the look of this one it is great
This is helpful cause I’m making this for my mom so thanks so much dude not I can say “I worked hard on it”
That was a sick catch at the start of the video!
I think its great! I would love to see a Video of a still very simple to make but proposal worthy ring =D I like the idea of making my wedding rings myself.
This is excellent buddy ! Thanks for the tutorial
Patrick I love your channel and I was wondering whether you would be willing to do a video where you make a expanding ring mandrel and a ring blank
Congrats on the 200k soon my dude
Wow right on my dude!!!
Patrick Adair Designs very nice craft we had some water work men leave all sorts of shit behind messy buggers but in a,wet cardboard box was some stainless steel nuts bonus you gives me an idea domes rubbish is someone else treasure ?👌💕🐺
I suggested this a long time ago but I saw you did it with the Superconductor ring. You should leave a Damascus ring in etch for 6-7 hours. Then fill the voids with glow powder. Like red. Use the instacure super thin CA glue to get in all the gaps.
I love what you make I'm kind of obsessed with rings (I wear 7 at all times and plan on completing my set of 10 eventually) so I was wondering if you'd be able to make a glow spin ring to see how it would turn out
You make some very informative videos! Easy to follow along!
You do great work man!
Your videos are honestly the sickest thing I have ever seen. Your rings look amazing.
Awesome dude! Nice ring! 👌
I like these talented people that ask for the viewers comments. Nice!
Love these, currently a Jewellery & Silversmithing student in Birmingham, might try this one out when I have some spare hours in the workshop. Be nice to seat a small stone on the bolt face.
Looks really good
awesome man Thank you for another easier ring.
what a beautiful ring
An impressive work of ordinary materials. Good idea!
That is a great way to create a good looking ring ,that actually looks very expressive,thank you for the video,I just started watching you, definitely amazing work you do, from one artist to another keep coming back with new ways to create beautiful rings!
Loved this video, plz do more
Super happy you made something without glow powder.
Love the more basic rings! Could you try making one from micarta? I know that it's possible to make some yourself from paper and resin, so it would be a cool personal material to work with, and it shouldn't be as hard to sand down as metals are.
Great video, would love some more basic tool videos also love the DeadMau5 poster!
Great build.
I love this ring
Another super cool ring lol i love this channel so much!!!!! Definitely going to try this when i get the chance
This is so cool
Please make a different style of ring using hex nut this is awesome!!!
Thank you for the vid. I’v wanted to make one and i could figure out how.
Yeah, I like this. Thanks so much. A person could also stamp the top of it with words or graphic design. Cool!
I notice a lot of people that comment say the rings don't look good during the whole process but look amazing when its finished. I hate that as an artist, people seeing my work before it's done for that reason. You really do make incredible rings I've been binge watching since last night I'm really glad I found this challenge. Do you take orders as well I'm really interested in having you make a ring for someone that's really special to me.
Amazing
Love it!
That was incredible and I can't wait to try this although I don't own any of the tools you used. New subscriber.
Thank you, I have been trying for 4 days
It looks good! Next time try leaving the top three flat edges for some added geometry. It looks a lot like a Signet ring that rich men wear! Nice job. I'm a lady, wife and Mother yet at five foot 10, I would wear it!
Hey Patrick love your vids
You deserve more viewers
I made one once but I used no power tools just files and hand sanding. Took me forever but I got a mirror polish and was proud of it
Nice im going to try it.
Awesome tutorial, Just curious what size is that pinky ring? Thank you
Can you make video about writing with dremel or about puting shards/cryatals (maybe glass) in the ring?
I really love your work and I also have a request for a really cool idea for a ring , you should make more superhero rings and please make a glowstone version of the reverse flash ring that would be great
You Rock & Rule 😊
so cool!
SOOOOOON THEE 200K
I'd recommend doing this with a mild steel nut and using bluing to put a fine black finish on it.
What would also be cool and something that could probably done with the same tools is to take this ring and mill out a shape (rectangle, circle, a letter, etc) in the flat part. Then inlay some glow powder and other materials just like you do with the other rings.
love the end result! maybe carve some symbols on it? just an idea
hello a question but the hexagonal nut is stainless steel or a simple hexagonal nut galvanized? thank you
Would annealing the nut before doing anywork on it make it an easier piece lf metal to shape?
DEADMAU5 PAINTING/PICTURE IN BACKGROUND!!!! AWESOME!
Sly Cooper yeah my boi!! Deadmau5 🔥🔥😘😍
im actually making a new Mau5 head 3d Model if you want my sketchfab i will add the link :)
Glow ring idea the one ring to rule them all and having the letters glow red
that is so cool
Hey dude, I don't know much about machinery and how to use them and stuff, but I need some help. I tried making one of these rings and I don't have a dremmel thingy (idk what's it called) so I made a makeshift dremmel thingy using a drill and then poked the drill thing into a piece of styrofoam, I cut out into a small circle, then taped and glued it so it doesn't fly off and then I glued sandpaper on the styrofoam. I was "able" to smoothen the inside of the ring. So can I shape the outside of the hexnut just like you did with my makeshift dremmel thing?😂
That is so beautiful like a shining diamond
What are those compounds
I got the tools but dont know the compounds
EGYPTIAN PHARAOH those are called polishing compounds, and you can usually find them through jewellery supply shops. You might even find them for sale on one of Patrick Adair's websites. I think he has one site for his rings, and one site for his supplies, so be sure to check his bio for links. Good luck
Very helpful for me and probly to everyone else
Congrats for 200k subs!!! (I was ur 200,001st one) 😉
Can you do a tour around all your amazing stuff? PLEASE.....
hheyyyy wooooww , well done bro
Add a jewel to the square face, would look great!
I like it, just a couple days ago I was watching other hex nut ring videos, maybe you can engrave it and fill the engraving with glow powder or other stuff.
Can I use a round palm sander instead of a belt sander to sand the corners and to taper the ring? (Going for signet style)
Can you recommend someplace to pick up SS Hex Nuts larger than 1/2"? Home Depot doesn't ever seem to have larger than that. Also, is there a way to treat hex nuts made of other materials so they will not rust? Thanks! Love your channel, keep up the GREAT work!
I just wanted to know how much do you charge for custom ring does it depends on how much work abd supply you have to use
I'm going to make two of these
Cool video
And btw I love the ring bro and I've been following you on Instagram
That’s my kind of ring. 😎 how much would you charge for that?
Seth H ya
Probably 7.99
very nice👍
Would it be easier to use an oven at a moderate heat to temper the hardness first?
You deserve 1 mill subs
How do you deal with rings on winter when cold shrinks the fingers? y normally wear 8 rings on one hand and 10 on the other hand and in summer there is no problem with them , but in winter they tend to fall off
Hi I am interesting to do my own ring by myself :C And you video is my inspiration. But I don't have a lot of money. so it's possible to use only 1 drill to make space in the ring or shape the ring?? all I have it's home stuffs. ;(
Love your channel Patrick. Doesn't the hex nut heat up when you are sanding it down? How do you deal with this?
Noah Munn every now and then u will see his fingers a little we are the wood darker, I'm pretty sure he stays water on them
Most metals conduct heat, and will therefore heat up due to the friction of sanding them. The way to get around this is to keep a cup of water beside the sanding station, and occasionally dip the ring in the water. A good rule of thumb is if you can't hold it, because it's too hot, it's too hot. Cool it before it gets too hot or you will mess with the heat treat. Hope this helps!
can u make a video about the tools u use? like wut lathe etc...
I NEED THAT RING
Here is a hard one for u ...
Go for SKULL Ring !
Thank really like your work.
I like it😍
I literally made one of these yesterday 😂😂
Would it be possible to make it with only a round file and a belt sander
hey new here came over from TKOR I think it would be cool to see a glass ring or something fully transparent or better inserts so you could change the design
Hey man you know... Christmas is coming soon... And I also have small fingers...
could you do this with sandpaper and a grinder?
