My grandpa got me into turning with a few of your kits. Many thanks!
Now THAT'S a mallet!!
The ring is very nice and you make it look so easy. I am sure it must take plenty of practice.
They do take a bit of practice :)
Mike you rock !!!
:) Thanks
Wow wish I could do that!
You can :)
Love the video and thank you! what type of wood did you use for a waste block?
Iv been using your ring chuck and ring cores for awhile, the hardest part is getting the ring core to have an exact fit in the wood black.
HighFalutin Tootin buy a MT2 boring bar setup. You will b making exact fit ring blanks in no time.
We need to get you a bigger mallet, Mike.
😍
Loved the video! I was wondering if you all at Craft Supplies USA have any tips for ensuring the interior is the right size and making sure that it is square. Making it square with the face has been my biggest challenge
Use a forstner bit that's close to the rings diameter, then finish it off with a scraper.
Rockler sells the best set of forstner bits in 1/16" increments. Comes with a nice case too. Get as close as you can with your bit then sneak up on the correct diameter. I don't know about you, but I use the solid cores and it's critical that the hole is an exact fit to the core on both sides otherwise it looks very sloppy. I've went beyond the correct diameter more times than I can count. It's just so time consuming I have to price the rings accordingly. I hope they sell.
I have purchased some of these rings. A plan of mine is to cut a groove in center of wood and glue in some opal chips and then finish off as usual. Has anyone done this with this ring? Thanks for videos. They are well done.
Would love some videos and tools to make these with a mini lathe
That's a great suggestion! In the meantime - turning on a mini lathe wouldn't change anything. Both a full-size and mini have plenty of power to turn a ring, and none of the tools would change.
Hi,
I’m making one of these rings and I have a question. When I glued the blank into the ring, some of the glue seeped on the inside of the ring. So I wiped it, but there is still some remaining. How do I get rid of this glue.
Thanks,
Peter
which size spindle gouge is used in the video?
How do I order the Artisan chuck/drill bit for turning?
is there a trick to get the ring cores apart
This video is gold 👍 I'm making a 2 piece ring using an acrylic blank while watching this video and curious what speed you are running the lathe at timestamp 2:18
Around 2,500 RPMs
Can these be made with antler?
What scratch free polish are you using in the video? I could not find it on you website. Thanks.
It’s Dr Kirk’s Scratch Free Wax. Here’s a link. www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/17/5652/Dr.-Kirks-Scratch-FREEE-Woodturners-Polishing-Wax
Buenas noches los saludo desde Colombia estoy muy entusiasmado con sus videos tutoriales ya que tengo un torno miniatura Unimat
pero no tengo el cabezal quisiera saber si por intermedio de ustedes puedo conseguir los accesorios para el mismo además veo que lo puedo trabajar en la elaboración de loa anillos, mi nombre es Carlos Mauricio Martín, (72 años) quedo atento a su respuesta y los felicito por sus magníficos videos ya que serián para mi una alternativa de trabajo me encuentro jubilado pero sin pensión, el logotipo que aparece en este correo era el de nuestra micro empresa pero nos vimos en la necesidad de cerrarla en febrero de año 2018 en la que laboraba con mi esposa en la fabricaciòn de tarjetería social.
Possibly stupid question but how do I go about making or getting a waste block?
Just curious, what are the benefits of having a two piece core? Is one better than other?
It's mostly a style preference, but they are a little easier to turn.
Hi Mike. How come you don't use CA glue on this type of rings? Wouldn't that compromise the durability of the wood and the shine?
I was wondering why he used the two part epoxy this time when he used CA on the solid core rings. I'd ask but I probably wouldn't get a replay as well.
He actually sort of answered this on another comment. They wanted to keep the natural satin of the wood, so they just used polish. They said, "If you want a durable finish, we recommend applying a CA finish." So I guess just aesthetics.
What iron or steel material did you say you used for in and around the ring?
What are they called and where can I find them?

Do you supply ring cores in Titanium. I ask because a lot of people (myself included) have an allergy to steel
Many Thanks
Malc
We do supply ring cores in titanium, but we don't offer them as a 2-piece. Here's a link to them. www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/58/7074/artisan-Titanium-Comfort-Ring-Core
And thank you for the comment. We're always happy to help
@@CraftSuppliesUSA Many Thanks ;)
When you gave the warning about not putting your finger into the ring when polishing the inside, I seriously cringed at the thought of what could happen... yikes! Great vid though!
We wanted to be very clear
There was a guy in our shop who put his finger into the ID of a cylinder on a lathe to polish it. Let's just say he can only count to 9 now.
How durable is the finish you applied?
We only used scratch free and plastic polish to polish the Desert Ironwood, leaving the wood unfinished for a satin look. If you want a durable finish, we recommend applying a CA finish.
What do you suggest on removing the epoxy if the two ring cores dont fit together properly? I glued my up did what you suggested with a mallet and it separated a bit so now there is a good size gap.
As far as the ring goes you'll need to turn the wood off the 2 piece ring, then a set of snap ring pliers will usually pull them apart.
If that doesn't answer your question well enough, please call us at 1-800-551-8876 and ask for Mike.
Even after the glue has dried?
@@MCarberry89 Once the wood is removed, use a heat gun or torch to soften the epoxy and you should be able to get them apart.
What chuck did you say you used?
We used the JDG Ring Turning Mandrel. www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/72/7115/JDG-Pro-Ring-Mandrel
Are there other options for mounting the Ring mandrel other than a collet chuck?
It's got a 1/2" shaft, so the only real options are a collet chuck or a drill chuck. We recommend collect chucks - they are more secure and run more true.
What are the names of the two polishes uses at the end?
Dr. Kirk's Scratch Freee Polishing Wax and Hut Ultra Gloss Polish. We've linked to both in the description to make it easier to find them.
Where is the info on the collett chuck you used?
Here is a link to the Collet Chuck: www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/101/4400/apprentice-Collet-Chuck-7-Piece-Set
I got this weird brass thing in the mail with a pen mandrel that I bought. I have no idea what it is but it is build with 3 pieces. 2 bras- nut things and a rubber ring. Please help.
What is your order #?
Craft Supplies USA how do I find that out?
Did you order the Apprentice Pen Mandrel?
Craft Supplies USA yes, I think it’s a Compression fitting but I don’t know what it’s for.
Craft Supplies USA hello?
use a mallet and lightly tap........... not Mjolnir as seen in the video.......
I purchased the Flexible CA glue, can that be used as a finish or just the thin?
Yes, you can use flexible
What is its price?
about $16 for the ring core
@@javinatorgaming the delivery in italy? The blue ring what kind of wood is it?
@@AdrianNeptune The blue ring looks like it is actually acrylic and I believe they do international shipping but I'm not positive
They are $15.95 each.
Thanks :)
Wooden rings
I hate spindle gouges :(
Nice video though :)

You really shouldn't have your hands near the spinning chuck while gripping something. If it catches and sucks trhat polishing rag into the bore, your finger is going with it. Instead, use a small stick with the polishing cloth attached to one end. If you're careful it shouldnt be a problem, but how do I explain to my wife that she's the only one who gets a ring because It interferes with my new prosthetic fingers.
