Wooden Ring

[rraposo]

Ok, so the title is pretty self explanatory. I made this just to check if i was able to, even if having no power tools... To be honest i'm quite happy with the result,... but i can still improve it (by a lot). Yeah, can't remember the wood on this one either. I'm terrible.

Feedback and opinions are always welcome.

Proof again that you don't need to know the wood species to make something.

I remembered... Spalted beech!!!... er... i think.

Fine job, what is the purpose of the ring?

Wooden you like to know Joe. lol

Just wondering how durable it would be, not to crack

[Glenn Jennings]

Looks fine to me.

Hi Joe might be a bit fragile but I think the object of the piece was to see if it could be done. And the answer to that one is YES!! hehehe.

We all do these things just to see if we can. That is the challenge that drives us to try different things.

It's surprisingly sturdy... joepaulbutler i was just testing myself.

3 more and you’ve got a set of napkin rings.

I used a power drill to cut a circle out of that bit of wood you see in the first picture... after that was only files/rasps and sandpaper.
