This honestly looks so much easier than a lot of the other methods I see on here. Just requires patience. Which is something lacking in the world today. Absolutely beautiful work
Nice result, i like it. I plan on trying something similar. The method I was planning on using was going over different types of wood with a hand plan then wrapping the shaving round a piece of plastic pipe while glueing them ontop of each other. If that makes sense. Once I get to the desired thickness let them dry and shape with a file and plenty of hand sanding. Would be interested in your thoughts on this process. You may even want to try it in a video.
It's my wife and my 40th anniversary next year, and I'd really love to make new rings for us, maybe with some Ruby red wood in it. I'll have to practice.
looks beautiful what if you dip it in epoxy after it's finished is that make it harder? and can you compine a small silver or brass ring in the middle of the layers but is it gonna stay together?
You can put a piece of metal in the middle but often that becomes the weak point as the wood doesn't adhere as well to metal. Even if you etch the surface of the metal to give it something to hold on to, they tend to break apart between the wood and the metal. As to dipping it in epoxy sure. It really won't make it any stronger but it will give it a nice smooth finish.
Love the finish on the ring! That matte look really sets it apart. How long will it hold up with regular use? I would imagine you'd want to take it off to do dishes as well
Yeah you're not going to want to get this one wet but occasional washing of the hands isn't going to be a problem. The nice thing about a simple homemade boiled Lindsey oil finish is the oils on your hand. Will continue asleep. Keep it the same appearance.
I've been watching too much of your other channel. I started the video and thought to myself "Hey Y'all, I'm James Wright, and where the hell is my intro!"

Fascinating process, James! Really beautiful work! 😃

Stunning could have used this idea before Xmas I know someone who would have loved this as a present.

@@WoodByWright
thank you
I love it
This is so beautiful. Nicely done 😍😍
Beautiful ring, and beautiful saw! Is that a BearKat?
That it is. Love that one!
What finish did you dip it in?
Homemade boiled linseed oil and paste wax.
@@WoodByWright thanks, I’m a luthier who’s been asked to refinish a wooden wedding ring. Wasn’t sure about the finish.

With the oil-wow!
Just Awesome! what types of wood did you use to make this ring?
That one was live oak and pudok
Nice
Great to meet you today. I will try not to harass you.
Thanks for saying Hi. Maybe we will bump into each other this week.
cool

👍👍👍👍
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Can you make fat thick with round finish not flat. Like the wood is swollen
I don't know what your doing
I've got a whole second channel where I go into detail and talk through the process as well as teaching along the way. Wood By wright how 2
Looks a bit bulky to wear. No wonder you didn't try it on. Also, I would have sanded the strips so you get a less visible glue line.
@happyatom made some a time ago and is really nice too
Nice
