Making a Dinosaur Fossil Ring from REAL Dinosaur Bone!

Today I make a ring using mostly hand tools out of REAL DINOSAUR BONE. The fossil I used is over 150 million years old! The patterns it has look incredible, especially on this simple ring's shape. This would be a great project to try at home if you're looking for a simple ring to get started making rings. I've got links to all the tools you'll need here:

Dinosaur Bone Slab: goo.gl/azfUaC (I'd recommend starting on a cheaper material if you're learning)

I put a lot of helpful links in the description, make sure not to miss them! Thanks for watching everyone, what are some materials you’d like to see me work with in the future?

[@zoesmith6381]

Blue or red opal!!,

[@TheForgeSculptures]

What is the machine called that you use? The rotary one that you use to cut the hollow part of the ring?

[@dajmahal]

would it be possible to make a superconductor ring with fossil band? Or a fossil bone with red inlay would be interesting

[@dajmahal]

@@TheForgeSculptures do you mean the lathe?

[@TheForgeSculptures]

@@dajmahal thank you very much my friend that is exactly what i meant!

[@colbyprieto37]

Wouldn't it be fun to do a dinosaur and meteorite ring.. Hehe no.. Just me?

[@noteblocker5857]

lol it would

[@z1rconium561]

quite ironic too!

[@leothedog979]

Colby Jacked he did lol (the halo ring)

[@TheProphetBot]

@@leothedog979 well that was megalodon not dino and there are studies that show that the megalodon died because sea animals evolved to be smaller so there wasn't enough food and they died

[@leothedog979]

Dimi Pop he put a T-Rex tooth in it as well🙄

[@stevenengage2297]

Would be cool to see that as an inlay between a deep colored hard wood or something, both for aesthetics and strength, seeing how if you sneeze that thing might break lol.

[@jasonsummit1885]

Never was confident enough to use this material for a ring until I watched this, it took me about two days or less to make one, and it turned out looking awesome!👍😁

[@agoldenferret]

I’m amazed how easily you can make these rings. They are all beautiful.

[@YapTuntley]

I'm guessing it only looks easy when we're watching it in a video, but we don't get the full sense of all the hours of work that go into making and perfecting all of these.

[@billpaquette6185]

Great job as always Patrick! I also loved the camera work when spraying the clear coat. It’s probably your creative imagination that I admire the most. Keep it up young man!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Thank you bill!

[@kaelins.7234]

Wow, wonderful ring! Love it. You've been a big inspiration in my life, I just started making rings aswell because of you. It's an amazing hobby, thanks Patrick!

[@IH-mh9wv]

This channel is too underrated and needs more exposure, absolutely incredible production quality and skill

[@stephenross7081]

Incredible design, very unique one of a kind rings. Dinosaur fossil, Petrified wood, Meteorite each more fascinating than any store bought ring. Stephen Ross

[@jackreeves3001]

I look forward too each video. You are an artist. Thanks for sharing!

[@BOYxPrincess]

I really hope after my death no one makes a ring out of my skull lol

[@misha3872]

Then you should make sure you don't die in an oxygen poor environment covered by sediments. Just a tip

[@BOYxPrincess]

@@misha3872 I will keep that in mind :)

[@lolibear]

dontcha worry, you are not even close to half the importance of a dinosaur skull, and there is much more famous and important people out there that will be first in line, and the amount goes a looong way... maybe after some milion years its your time

[@BOYxPrincess]

@@lolibear oddly comforting in a way lol. Thanks

[@daiujin]

i was about to say 😂 how would someone react to their bones being turned into rings 100 millions years into the future?

[@GinkgoFroggo]

I love dinosaurs so having a ring made from dinosaur bone is amazing.

[@calebalister4276]

Dude your work is amazing! I love all of the rings you make! This fossil and your ice pick rings are my favorite!

[@YapTuntley]

Wow, that's such a beautiful material. I'd love to see you do more with it!

[@silencedstars6835]

Most underrated KZbin channel ever! Great video man!

[@leopardgeckoonsteroids7012]

Good idea! Make a ring out of one of the rarest things in the world! How considerate!!!

[@KTBStudios]

This is so awesome 👏 I wish I had this talent Patrick!!

[@resinAce]

Now that's my kind of ring - love it!

[@jessezavala877]

Dude you make the coolest rings.

[@TheLadyLionheart]

It would be cool to see it enforced with some metal or meteor to help protect the integrity of the ring, but otherwise SO, SO cool. Love dinosaurs, AND this ring!

[@kaseydavidleboeuf2761]

Dinosaur fossil is such an interesting material to use. Awesome!

[@surajwalter1]

dude you have a voice of an angle, fantastic narration and super cool job..............

[@capcombisney7919]

Dude your content is so good, please put this dinosaur ring on your site

[@brianbairos101]

Great ring ! Next one should be a meteorite and fossil ring

[@RangaBonsai]

I like this material, but would love to see it integrated with another material, possibly a copper, or with an inlay! Great work Patrick as always.

[@DanielRichards644]

that would make a hell of a wedding ring set, just the story behind the ring would be so cool vs's your typical wedding band.

[@weiwei7483]

"This one you can do at home" *reach to my dinosaur fossil collection*

[@jasonsummit1885]

Actually just go to gem shows, a few vendors should have some quality lapidary rough slabs of agatized dino bone for not too much money. Better than buying it off eBay.👍

[@jaiskilton9354]

That is gorgeous!

[@thenerdypreacher2681]

That's a nice truck. Cool ring too ;)

[@christiancoisas]

Very cool man,congratulations👏👏👏

[@4realGTFOH]

That ring is so awesome! 150 million years in the making!

[@speedypowers6931]

Can u do a video where u resize a ring and make it smaller I am curious about that

[@leeswrxsti4902]

Hey Patrick, love the work you do, I will be ordering a meteorite ring soon. Keep up the awesome work.

[@adnanashraf]

Wow! That looks fancy

[@bretthaynes1921]

Damn he flexing the raptor on us lol im jealous

[@CertifiedTae]

u is da jelly. Lol

[@shadowboy0126]

What a lovely ring, oh bearer mine.

[@mysticmalik3810]

Thats frikkin awesome

[@mattchoi170]

Try making a junk ring with all of the shavings and unused scraps from other projects! maybe you could suspend some of the scraps in clear resin. That would be cool!

[@brentfitz1990]

Would really like to see you sell the dinosaur bone rings! I can see one maybe with a silver liner :) I do need to decide on a wedding band by next September haha

[@soulfulsince0000]

This is beautiful

[@cullenm7827]

This is a easy one to do at home we just got some tools and a 150 million year old dinosaur bone. Great channel btw

[@devonte276]

This is awesome and would look sweet in obsidian finish

[@anthonyjosephcortez]

The ring turned out so well!! I really like the pattern. Love your videos btw. I discovered you through matt’s channel. But now I’m a fan. Your videos are really relaxing to watch haha 😂

[@walkingalcaraz9510]

DANG, this is now my favorite videos

[@LFNC]

You know how to make cool ring all the time and good job to

[@candorguitars]

You could always put a nail in the board you lay the ring on to help you sand an even thickness all the way around. Just put the nail back, from the edge, the same thickness you want the ring. It will help stabilize and keep your fingers away from that wheel!

[@ICEDB4nk]

Thank you for sharing your skills with others. I work in a laser shop and have been looking into a hobby to pick up. We use tube, flat lasers. We also have water jets. So stumbling onto your page was a blessing. Have you tried making anything with kevlar?

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Yes! Search for “Kevlar ring Patrick Adair Designs”

[@mickyplayz9451]

Wow, just wow

[@averyanderson8834]

This is sick!

[@DESI_FACT369]

Amazing talent man! keep doing the amazing work! 😍♥️

[@owenclark7210]

That would look really cool, and also be more structurally sound with a Timascus core

[@canadian_moose7970]

this is awesome

[@bogdan2206]

cool ring dude

[@Galaxy1423]

Love your ring making videos

[@helenatoro]

Awesome video as always Patrick! Btw I would be interested in seeing some other design with this material, it looks great:D

[@aaronmathias63]

Awesome video

[@brandonmckenzie7301]

That would look amazing as an inlay.

[@Overcast_Props]

I see that this one is more of a tutorial video, I like it.

[@JoseMunoz-gh4mp]

Very interested in a new ring with that material!

[@chasejohnson6369]

You guys rock!!!

[@jennifermai5629]

amazing video!

[@SpecterRides]

I’d like to see some more dinosaur bone rings!

[@ralphmacsavage]

This material would look good with a hard bevel on the out side edges. Like you do for some of your glow rings.

[@rodline9027]

Beautiful ring. If I may ask, what clear coat did you use?

[@jasonwhitton8106]

How could anybody, with even a slight appreciation of history, further destroy something that will never be seen again..

[@FreedomAnderson]

He doesn't care as long as he makes money from the video.

[@topofthecompass]

I think a ring using both Stone and fossil would be cool

[@Alchemydude667]

So Patrick, I've been wondering, since you use CA glues to fill voids, seal glow powders, and various other applications, do you advise your rings not be worn by people who use chemical acetate for work or to remove nail polishes? Or do you have some other sealant that you'd use to prevent such unfortunate circumstances?

[@Nichol0824]

I'm working on a Malachite one this way. Got it all cut out and halfway through sanding. Should have it finished tomorrow. ..hopefully lol

[@alexanderfalkingham1380]

Not sure if it would be possible or easy, I just have to say when watching the video I was thinking this would be amazing this as an inlay to one of your meteor rings. On a side note, I'm glad to have found your channel and now time to start saving. I'm definitely going to want to get a ring in the future.

[@avalon5957]

That's amazing --maybe it should have a metal frame inside and on the edges so that it wont break so easily :)

[@shadedspider3647]

That’s cool

[@orinfisch4970]

I think he should wrap his Raptor in a “dinosaur camo” pattern like the one on the ring

[@WorldofRockhounds]

Price will usually depend on color and how "gemmy" the piece is. I tried to do an inlay of dino bone but had to put the project on hold until I can revisit it at a later date.

[@plaguemouse5549]

You think it would survive obsidian facets? Also is the sheen from the clear coat or that's just how machine fossil looks when polished?

[@jasonjohnson6447]

Looks great! Bit concerned about its durability tho. That clear coat isn't going to prevent more of those cracks. Probably needs to be an inlay. Still awesome though

[@masashihendigia1660]

I love your ring art work man. I hope one of these days I can ask you to make me a phew and I'll pay top dollar for it.

[@oneofthosemoments4564]

"You can make this easily at home, you don't need many tools for it..." *Yea, let me just quickly grab my dinosaur bone that is hanging in my bedroom*

[@jamesbell8861]

Etched Damascus Steele, Fossilized Dinosaur Bone Inlay with Red Glow Trustone Accents 💖... I love your videos brother. I wasnt much of a ring guy before until I saw the possibilities. I'm totally convinced !!! I love that you might be open to a one of a kind custom order ???

[@ahmedhasan8526]

Using the dust from the bones could be an interesting thing to use in a ring making project.

[@Draco301293]

If you ever get sponsored by audible it would be cool if you made a ring out of your favourite book with the chip in that would open audible for you on your phone!

[@kunal06a]

Can you do like a clear resin ring with smaller pieces of dinosaur bone in it? Will look cool

[@9MMSWORD]

Have you ever considered getting some cactus juice and stabilizing fragile materials like this bone? Would make working with it much safer.

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Before you make any more rings, you need to stabilize the dinosaur fossil. Just like wood, precious stones and fossils benefit greatly from having the stabilizing resin. Especially if you are going to be making a limited series of the rings, and don't want to take a chance on the fossil cracking.

[@jmsmom67]

That’s a lot of dinosaur dust you have there!

[@cristalkuro-chan4737]

Cool

[@runfromnuke]

Really awesome look to that one! You should send one to Jeff Goldblum. lol

[@zarster]

awesome videos you make! Why no wasteboard under the drillpress tho?

[@MOsesIcan]

Also a fossile with a tritium vile or segment displayed with be a cool thing

[@daltonwalther5706]

Can't wait to see more of your videos Patrick also will any of the other rings be available on your website just wondering

[@tomking8918]

woulldn't using a clear epoxy resign work well and make the materiel a bit stronger to work with?

[@arielcarlesi6813]

Hey! I love your stuff! I was curious about your favorite lathes

[@owenlucas9727]

Hey man, I love your work!! I’ve started making rings by myself with stuff I find around the house, pretty crummy stuff. I was wondering how I would advance to create better rings

[@celtgunn9775]

Man, I love your channel Patrick but it really stinks that the giveaways are always Instagrams. I don't do all these extra apps. I ditched Facebook, because of the invasive behavior of the program. No way I want more programs/apps. Any way you could do giveaways for your KZbin fans too? I don't expect I'd win, I have horrible luck. But I know lots of people just don't use all of these apps. 😊

[@bryanmelendez7960]

The issue is that it’s much more difficult to manage a KZbin giveaway. But I’ll see if I can make it happen some time.

@@PatrickAdairDesigns I understand, if you can't manage it you can't. I just wanted to let you know that there are folks who follow that don't do other formats. 😁 I'll still enjoy the videos, regardless.

Just saw this video and entered! Hope I’m not too late! Also you should stabilize the bone in epoxy.

How did you resist the urge to put that blank in the lathe for sanding?

[@brunopmcosta]

Isn't it brittle? Shouldn't you pressure resin the blank before trying this material?
