DIY Secret Wood Rings APK

This is our take on the secret wood rings that you all shared with. we think that while many of the processes can be refined and improved upon, the basic steps are all here! Step 1: Splintering the Wood The cornerstone of this project is that the rings are suppose to look like a miniature forest on your finger. That look is achieved with a piece of wood splintered in a way to give the illusion of trees. the first attempt was just to smash the cherry wood with a sledge hammer. The splinters were too large. Next attempt was when putting the bloodwood in my bench vise and tried to get a good break with simple leverage. The third attempt, with the beech board, was to add three blocks of maple to make a controlled break in the vise. Step 2: Pouring the Night Sky The resin portion of this ring is suppose to mimic the night sky. Forest and sky together in once piece of jewelry. A very clever design. Step 3: Rough Shaping Next step is to drill hole for the ring. This should be right at the edge of the splinter/resin line. You'll want to size this hole accordingly for whomever will be wearing this. Here is a useful chart of ring sizes in both inches and mm. Then, take the block over to the band saw and rough cut the shape of the ring. These are small rings and the band saw is sharp, so be super careful. You will need your fingers for wearing these.... Step 4: Sanding and Polishing Sanding sucks. it just does. he grits start at 120 and end at 800. From starting at 120 to finishing both rings at 800 grit it was invested in a total of 1 hour and 40 minutes. When you're done with the micro mesh, it looks pretty good, but a little plastic polish can make it even better! So, dab on a little plastic polish then use a buffing wheel on a Dremel tool! This takes the ring to eleven, and really makes it shine!
