Making a Siberian MAMMOTH TOOTH and Carbon Fiber Ring with the Waterjet Channel

In this week's hottest collab, Patrick Adair and The Waterjet Channel join together to design a ring made from a 5 million year old pure Siberian mammoth tooth cut open by the waterjet. This ring also features a carbon fiber liner. Combining an ancient Siberian mammoth tooth with carbon fiber created a truly unique ring.

Sent you an email for a request on madrels. But commenting to point out something i keep seeing on the lathe. Is your mandrel warped? At first i figured the teeth may be bowed but that wouldnt make sense considering its also made on a lathe. When you were using the depth gauge, i couldnt help but wonder if a lot of what you were seeing was from a wapred mandrel or perhaps one that wasnt sitting right in the chuck. This is something i see on a lot of the videos. It shows up when you do slow motion shots. Looks to be a fraction of an inch of wobble but if you correct for it and its the mandrel thats actually bent, youre still gonna end up with an offset thickness in the ring.

You seen it here first, Mammoth dentishry performed by dremel 😋

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Lol

[@hullinstruments]

When I’ve worked with mammoth tooth and ivory in the past I ALWAYS use a backer for the front AND back before I do any drilling or shaping. It can be something as simple as a piece of card stock glued to both the front and back faces, or even painters tape.... A thin front and back lamination may have given you enough stability in your drilling process. I Enjoy your videos, sorry you had some issues… I come from a background of exotic materials specifically used in the gun knife and Jewelry Industries. I’ve seen it all, from hundreds of pounds of superconductor (enough to fill several large flat rate boxes) to a dozen full length mammoth teeth being sawn and stabilized into scales for resale. So I completely understand your strugles, That material can be such a pain! You do Great work!

I can't even remember how I ended up on your vids but I am loving the content!!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Thanks!

[@warp9894]

The first video I saw was the bogwood ring. Not the one where he puts the carbon fiber inlay in but the origanal one but I am like how did I decide to click this and now he's one of my favorite KZbinrs. I even want to try making a carbon fiber ring

[@PaulK390S90V]

I wish you did this with some petrified wood as the liner instead of carbon fiber. Or any kind of wood...like the bog wood or something. Just to keep it natural and go with the theme. But either way really cool...and it A+ for keeping with it! I bet you wish you had the water channel cut out the blanks again!

[@connor3510]

Pulls out mammoth tooth like it’s a common material DUDE ITS NOT LIKE YOU CAN FIND THAT AT THE FRICKIN DOLLAR STORE

[@smallorphan1192]

Nexus 35 I mean they actually are not too hard to find.... and only cost 80 dollars for poor condition....

[@snody]

Let me give you a really good tip for attaching things using super glue like this. I have to do it with small wood pieces all the time. You only need one other thing: blue painters tape. Here is what you do: Stick a couple strips of painters tape next to one another on your scrap board. Next cover the bottom of your workpeice with painters tape. Next glue the two tape covered surfaces together. It will hold very well When you are all done you just peel off the tape, no fuss with trying to fix anything.

[@SuitedCynic]

I love (LOVE!!) your videos and I really think your editor is adding a lot of value to your videos without making them feel like something that I didn't subscribe for, so really good job! Your work itself is, I don't think I don't even need to point that out but I will anyways, so great, that I really wish I could afford a ring of yours =D Just the intro itself, and not even the visuals or even music choice, just the sheer volume of it .. it's too much, I feel. It makes my speakers (or headphones) distort because it's just SO massive, wish you'd tune it down a bit, but don't change any other part of your video formula

[@domopix4387]

Dam gorgeous!!!! So bad ass that you didn't give up and you worked till you got the job done...... 😍👍

[@lsedanolg]

Stephanie Edwards that's cute

[@pokemasterx4244]

*"damn"*

[@scottpoels9263]

damn mammoth tooth is really beautiful

[@corelockout6293]

Please don't take this negatively, I mean it to be constructive. You have beautiful work and, maybe it's just an optical illusion, maybe it's real. But as I'm watching you run the dial indicator for concentricity it looks like the mandrel is out of alignment. If there is deflection in your mandrel when you check it and mark the high spots, you're taking the ring further out of concentricity. I'm sure it doesn't matter in this case since you hand sanded it afterwords, but just as a note, your ring will only be as concentric as your mandrel is straight. As a further side note, I wouldn't put your lathe mandrel in an arbor press. get a steel dowel or another mandrel for that. Always keep precision tooling away from non-precision work. Keep up the good work though. I love all the work you've done in the past and I look forward to new beautiful projects! (sorry for the novel...)

[@TheBeardx16]

i was thinking the same .

Ay ye might be into somthn lad

[@DarkLordZewo]

exactly what i came down here to say :D

[@jameswyrm8]

This is the best looking ring I've ever saw.....and its out of a mammoth tooth?... That makes it a million times more awesome!!!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Thank you!

[@ddewaard3265]

instead of directly glueing the material to the wood when using those hole saws, apply painters tape to both surfacs and glue that together, makes the parts come off real easy

[@rabascm573]

Wow thats fucking dope! I entered the giveaway in the many steps I could do. Im supporting your channel for a while now.. You should know how dope it is do wear a mamooth ring since its so rare to have one. I stay tuned!

[@rabascm573]

Where do you post the winner? ;$ Instagram?

[@teamjenko5219]

heya, complete novice at ring making here, quick question, when you are checking the concentricity of the rings outer diamete, how can you be sure you are measuring it correctly when it looks like the part you are holding it with is off center?

[@pepethefrog3054]

This is the coolest ring ever

[@connorgraves2684]

I subbed to u, I subbed to water jet, and visited ur website

[@thomaswoody4759]

I don't even know what to say it's so cool I have never seen anything like that it's one of a kind you did great like all ways your videos are never boring

[@DLR2542]

So awesome. You are really going outside the box. Luv it

[@samuelunderwood7866]

That looks amazing I hope I can get that good one day I am doing a water buffalo horn ring right now I hope it looks that good good 👍 job man

[@PatriotCoinRings]

+Patrick Adair Designs Always coming up with something new and cool bro. Hey question for you. I was told there are a couple "desktop water jets" now available capable of cutting steel making them more affordable now and was wondering if you have one in mind for us to check out? It would need to be strong enough to cut through materials we use like tugsten, titianium, iron, etc but have you looked into what the most affordable water jet might be that would fit in the common home work shop?

[@rabascm573]

3 days left for giveaway.. Tomorrow I have 100/40000 chance. (did 100 entries) I hope I have luck, the ring is dope. I wish you all the best of luck -Pascal Hesselink

[@HarosOfStyx]

Beautiful. But isn't it very fragile? In other words wouldn't somebody be afraid to wear because it break or fracture very easily?

[@cbeaulac]

Using carbide bits on soft material isn't advised dude, if that's a HSS insert correct me, but using a HSS blank and sharpening properly will give you a MUCH smother cut on your lathe. Also dial indicator "needle" is actually called a probe.

[@TonyInIR]

I paid $17.50 for my very basic titanium wedding band... opens beers.. Will I damage yours opening a beer? Love your style my man

[@commonsense7754]

Wouldn’t flipping the mammoth tooth over and doing a light cut to score the bottom help avoid tear out? Also, what’s the longevity on these CA glue inlays? I’ve had issues with yellowing with UV exposure and also weakening over time on unrelated projects, using CA glue. Any reason why you don’t use an epoxy?

[@chrislepageful]

Hi buddy, I was just curious as why you were using the dial at around 7 minutes in. Your ring fixture is wobbling in the chuck. My suggestion would be to use the dial after you put your ring fixture in the chuck. That way whatever you machine will be precisely machined.

[@Rich77UK]

I used to cut ceramic "pucks" like this (for RF R&D where i used to work) and to hold the ceramic in place we used a sturdy jewellers wax. Works better than CA glue.

[@xxhemletimexx1916]

Is there anyway u can use quartz and glow powder and carbon fiber I’m not sure if u did something similar but if u could try that that would be aswome (btw I’m a kid and I love ur content keep it going

[@IN3XU5I]

Hi Patrick,I wanted to ask you where have you bought your deadmau5 framed canvas?

[@aresshahumyan1821]

Hey patrick the ring turned out nice but about the tooth cutting part i have a suggetion for you . Diamond tools dont need alot of force to do the job looking at the video i notice the water was drying out fast and you can see some smoke .the problem is you're forceing the tool instead of letting it do the work . Next time just try less force and it should be fine . Good job overall .

[@SirTranquilizator]

I don't know if you did this already, but with all these glowing things you could have made The Ring from LOTR, that would shine orange or red from the inside through an opaque film or layer with elvish script punctured in it. I bet a lot of people would want that.

[@c4tze]

fucken hell how are that many blokes producing videos with this awful procedural shopping mall techno tunes in the background? why? instant downvote.

[@ballerbeck]

I’m wondering why you don’t freeze the carbon fiber inserts before fitting them. They will slightly shrink when cold. Then expand and fit tighter when back at room temperature. Maybe not a great idea for this ring since it’s prone to cracking but all the other ones you have done I’m sure it would work well.

[@rwhite9994]

Wanted to give a heads up on how to cut that out with better success. Gather some foam core with adhesive back: use the good kind that will not release with light mineral oil. Sandwhich the mamoth, wood, bone, etc between it, cut the first part out- appling lubricant just as you normally would. After the first part is cut out- inspect the sides for possible cracks- which would be rare. Next wipe the top of the foam core with degreaser, cleaning well and apply another clean piece of foam core on top. Clamp it all down- Cut the last. Not only does this greatly reduce vibration, and that tear out violence you mentioned but the over all pressure from your drill press clamps is evenly spread out. May not make good TV, but you can then pull the foam core aparts on each side and gently sand off or use adhesive remover to get your ring cut out free. You can also use plasticore, wood, etc but foam core works just fine.

[@Bene92Elohim]

You have awesome skill but you honestly should've been more cautious working with the material. Failing 2 out of 3 is sad, especially since it's a material that comes from an extinct animal.

[@shakky1001]

Hey! You should make a red/white glow in the dark resin ring made old Pokemon cards (kinda like the money ring you made a few months back... But with cards) lol great chain your videos are always awesome to watch

[@noname-pj3dw]

Everytime I sand amethyst ... That's how I feel ... Lol takes forever.

[@LyonScapeStudios]

Why dont you just make a small pump and nozzle to continuously water the workpiece? Just to keep everything cleaner.

[@jackryan4259]

you shouldn't wear rings while operating power tools, look up degloveing injuries. your welcome for the trauma :)

[@jbtechcon7434]

Bro, you should have impregnated it with resin in a vacuum chamber BEFORE you ever tried to cut it.

[@TechTomVideo]

Your Mandrel is off center... There's no chance to get an even thicknes 7:15

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

I trimmed down the step where the ring is so the ring is perfectly centered but the rest of the mandrel wasn’t.

[@TheTonyMcD]

Is the tooth like partially fossilized? When you cut into it, the amount of dust and the color of it looks like natural tooth. But then it also looks heavily mineralized in parts. So I'm wondering if it is just a partially fossilized tooth?

[@jarredcox6714]

Its a cool ring not gonna lie, I could never afford it but its cool but not worth making a ring out of in my opinion. It was bad enough seeing the 1800's morgan being destroyed but this is an even bigger loss of irreplaceable items of scientific and historical value.

[@bobyrd4386]

That was awesome!! How much do u charge to make rings?? I will serisouly pay u, I'm just not sure what I want.

[@magmaxcreates3766]

I'm surprised you didn't use a diamond sanding drum for the Dremel. They cut through everything.

[@ohmahgawdfilms]

yeah... bone is definitely gross smelling. Especially when it burns.

[@deepakmodi10]

I will buy few rings once i will have enough money to buy... u make superb rings...

[@dakotasrocks]

Those aren’t great tools to work with stone with. I would suggest looking at some some lapidary wheels or drill bits specifically made for stone. I hope this could help 😁

[@fattywithafirearm]

I have a pair of mammoth tooth grips on 1 of my 1911 pistols. I would love a mammoth tooth ring.

[@johnbiggs7620]

fattywithafirearm can I ask where you got your grips from? I have a friend in North Dakota that makes 1911 Grips and has done some with mammoth as well.

[@fattywithafirearm]

John Biggs I purchased them from a gentleman at the wanenmacher gun show in Tulsa oklahoma a few years back. Actually my godfather bought them for me. I can't remember the guys name, he had all kids of exotic woods, corals, he even had buckle iron meterorite 1911 grips. He had amazing grips.

[@liamsmartt2922]

fattywithafirearm Dude that’s gotta look sick.

[@Mr2112Scotty]

[@bope7103]

haha We feel the same way about the sanding procedure at the dentist. It SUCKS.

[@bryanbostic6941]

If you slow your drill speed down and use a diamond grit hole saw you will not have so many breakages when drilling hard/fragile materials. You can also use some drill lube instead of water. You do great work, but trying this may save you some time and material cost.

[@witiwap86]

You could try just setting up a shop vac with the tube next to your mandrill/sander. Might help a little.

[@serkandemirhanofficial]

do you breathe while talking on your videos ???

[@jSCOTTmc80]

If your mandrel was true, you could skip the annoying step of grinding your rings' high points down.

[@LanRiveraH]

man im from in philippines your work was so amazing..can i get one of your rings?

[@patw999]

I think you were way to aggressive on the speed and feed. Sometimes slow and steady is best. beautiful ring though.

[@arturhakobyan6850]

Wouldn't it be easier and quicker to cut the rings with jewelers fretsaw????

[@Imwright720]

Ashamed they couldn’t cut it out with the water jet. Any fragile stone is best backed up with a stable surface. You could use hot glue or ca and glue it to mdf. A little bit of water will dissolve away the mdf.

[@stevegarmier563]

Was thinking yea I'll win this. A no i won't is been over a year ago lol. I seem to find the good stuff way after millions of others lol. 😥😥😥

[@stephboeker7835]

I love your video's and skill at turning rings, but now you've got me addicted to the idea of trying my hand at it. I'd love to see a video on your shop tools w/ links to purchase them :) Model Lathe, Model Dremel (I've never seen one like that), chucks and ring holders, etc... :) Thanks for your generous consideration, Sincerely ..........

[@thebooca]

I just can't help but comment on the fact that you're using *precision* instruments in conjunction with *hand tools* . I don't know why this bothers me so much, but it does.

[@brucebasil4164]

Your spindle should have been indicated. The ring will never be round. But it looks very nice.

[@KieranRose159]

I couldn't find any so correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it would be cool if there were some rungs made from stones and marble and stuff like that

[@TheTonyMcD]

Burn some fingernail clippings and you'll get a pretty good idea of what it smells like.

[@igknightd2998]

Maybe try and get your hands on some more prehistoric stuff. Like dinosaur bones,etc

[@peterharper9703]

Soooooo the tooth was from a girl Mammoth named Sandy? Or was it from a boy Mammoth named Dusty?😂🤪

[@macbro414]

could u use carbide inserts to turn down the mammoth tooth? love the ring by the way great job!!!

[@russellgtw]

Buy some diamond abrasive files, you'll thank me later 😁

[@fruitie]

Can I get this ring.... IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL😍😍🤤

[@orionbray9720]

If you use mammoth ivory or tooth you shouldn't use water while cutting. Go slow so it doesnt overheat. Do not get this material wet.

[@brendanferreira8478]

New owner of the Mammoth tooth ring note: Please brush the tooth twice daily with Sensodyne toothpaste

[@Thingsthatgopew22]

Why dont you spend a day setting up your tool so it doesnt wooble like a drunk penguin? Then you wont get any high and low points on the stuff you make.

[@DSperformance96]

I don't think you'll get accurate results when measuring for high and low points if your mandrel shakes like that while spinning...
