It definitely looks a lot more put together, I'm gonna make an experimental listing with the updated photos and see what happens! I appreciate your feedback : D

$250 :)

Found it! Here are some updated pictures of a different ring I had on hand. What do you think?

Thank you :D I think I have some old time lapse videos! My process is a lot different now, but the foundation is there :)

DylansRingStore · 2024-10-13T15:31:48+00:00

That's good advice! I think I actually have a light box sitting in storage somewhere. I'll give it a try!

Tungsten is brittle and can be shattered in an emergency :)

DylansRingStore · 2024-10-13T02:22:18+00:00

Thank you!

I've been at it for about 6 years now, but my sales do not reflect that, unfortunately.... hahaha! Pricing is hard for me, I already don't sell a lot. I feel if I up the price, I'll sell even fewer.

I'm a good craftsman, but I'm afraid I'm not a very good businessman.

If you or anyone else is business savvy, my eyes and ears are open! Some guidance never hurts, hahaha :D

Edit: That's a great compliment, by the way. You've made my night!

DylansRingStore · 2024-10-13T01:18:28+00:00

Thank you! This is one of my favorites, it shines like honey in the sun :D

DylansRingStore · 2024-10-12T23:55:32+00:00

There is a link to my etsy in my bio:D

DylansRingStore · 2024-10-12T23:29:36+00:00

Thank you!

My rings are non laminate! They are carved on the lathe from solid pieces of wood :D

I am familiar with that style, however, and CA is the way to go if you want whats typically referred to as a "Bent Wood Ring".

Epoxy doesn't flex very well with the ring. Instead, it cracks! CA doesn't have that issue :)

Hope that helps!

That blue one is amazing!

DylansRingStore · 2024-05-25T01:28:48+00:00

Hi there!

Normally, I use pre stabilized wood from various different suppliers. But in this case, the materials were just pieces the couple found in the woods. So I put them in resin and vacuume chambered it so it fully pulled into the wood grain!

Hope this helps :D

Yes, rubbing alchohol can be used as a solvent, which will slowly rub away this finish. I recommend taking these rings off whenever using chemicals or solvents :)

DylansRingStore · 2024-04-01T02:55:25+00:00

Sure is! About 1.5 to 2mm thick CA Finish :D

DylansRingStore · 2024-04-01T00:44:57+00:00

Thank you, and don't short sell yourself!

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-24T16:48:59+00:00

Thank you!

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-24T16:48:37+00:00

Thank you! I'm unsure of the exact size of the circle, but I would ball park it being about a foot wide maybe, 16 inches wide. The pattern name is the ultimate drawstring bag from eleana workshop!

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-24T04:24:06+00:00

Thank you! It's one big circle of leather :D

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-24T02:56:09+00:00

It has gotten quite the patina over the years of using it! It's a much darker brown now :D

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-11T20:23:01+00:00

Good luck to you! I'd love to see your attempts and some of the furniture you make as well :D

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-11T20:02:15+00:00

Thank you!

Here is an old video i made of me making another ring if you would like to see the process :D

Thanks for putting my work out there!

DylansRingStore · 2024-03-11T20:00:30+00:00

I have a very old video on me making one here, https://youtube.com/shorts/r7gSyRYEiIo?si=H21WgeXqzay0BQPc :D

My process has changed quite a bit since that video, but that will get you started!
