Making an Aged Whiskey Barrel and Deer Antler Ring

[@Ron3343]

Patrick, I got the Wedding Bands 3 days ago. They are freaking AMAZING!!!!! Well worth the wait. You sir are now part of my (and my soon to be wifes) life!! Keep up the MOST FANTASTIC work i have ever seen in custom rings!!!!

[@bigbird4481]

Wife's or wifes I'm wondering how lucky you are lol

[@JustSonicShorts]

I love how you make rings for all groups of people and the steps you go through to show us how you do it, you are a truly amazing ring designer, Patrick.

[@carsontaylor8249]

These videos are what I watch when I can’t sleep and they are just super relaxing and calming (not boring) and the help a ton with sleep

[@Milieboy]

I use this to fall asleep, it's very satisfying and calming to watch.

[@haroldbrown1205]

So satisfying watching the materials being machined. Great work.

[@secousskb]

I find this ring to be one of your very best ! It is definitely very creative and original while keeping a rather simple and pure look. Great job !

[@ryanbraggs8564]

Absolutely outstanding!!!! My favorite so far

[@1treyton1]

You're a freaking wizard, Pat. Killer design

[@jasonwilhite1036]

Love watching these videos, always enjoy watching talented craftsmen work!

[@manssegerlund6631]

Super cool ring. Always impressed by the materials you use to create these amazing rings, never know what might come next!

[@DroneMaverick]

Your the most talented ring maker I've ever heard of Patrick. I've got the ring bug now, and I want one of yours. Cheers!

[@CK9mum]

Love the combination of materials, Patrick. Beautiful!

[@BrooksSligh]

Nice work! This is without question my favorite of the rings I've seen you do. Phenomenal stuff.

[@neoratte386]

Nature is the greatest Designer :D

[@juliantanner8384]

Man this and and the shipwreck one have to be my favorites. You have some amazing skill. I hope that in the future you get the recognition that you deserve.

[@simeon7450]

Beautiful ring! Great macro photos too. Im in love with the whole process of making these special rings. I would kill for a traineeship at your workshop.

[@kerithforeman6301]

I love anything with antlers in it, I collect antlers in dream catchers, & other stuff with antlers in it!!

[@f6y7t5]

The charred part is the inside

[@Walter-fc3uq]

Procrastinator I was just going to say that lol

[@marcusa5564]

Correct. 👍🏻

[@1972Russianwolf]

Not sure he's old enough to drink whiskey, so we'll give him a pass. ;)

[@f6y7t5]

I think hes older than me

[@LoganHarvathDesigns]

This is a beautiful ring! Nice job, and a great edition to your collection!

[@peepers4763]

Enjoyed the video, the process, the materials and the presentation. A fan!

[@stephenrock-wc6xt]

Love the Nature ring concepts Patrick!! I have been itching to make some rings, made a couple and have been making my own ear plugs using burl wood!!!

[@venomtec313]

I say just keep doing what your doing with combining material. I will keep watching

[@silenttraveler2710]

*TOTAL AWESOMENESS* *Brilliantly Done*

[@edwinleach4013]

A favorite for sure. Keep up the great work.

[@Jakemakesthat]

Another amazing ring! Awesome work!

[@aidandaly3773]

Trick is to like the video before you watch it because its bloody awesome every time

[@frazzlefresh]

Hey Patrick, definitely one of my favourites that you’ve made. The Antler looks superb 👌 I like the juxta of the materials. Think this came out great. Keep up the great work

[@NicolasSilvaVasault]

probably my favorite ring you've ever done

[@jaksoon9724]

Stablized maple burl and a metal so copper or silver or some nice dark material such as some sort of stone or ebony

[@sangrealrings]

Love this one.

[@icabodpsillycyberman414]

Beautiful result as usual. The contrast of textures is lovely. I dont wear rings but i love the materials you use and the imagination that goes into your rings. Your video production is better than most on youtube too! Have you ever used mature English yew? The colour contrast from old wood to new is striking and its a very durable wood! (used for bows and quarterstaffs)

[@johnhandley730]

You should do something like fill the voids in the antler with diamond powder, and purple glow dust

[@woodardsh7160]

Amazing ring! Great job!

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Good job !

[@loki4215]

+2 Attack +5 Magic resistance

[@vfox1582]

Pretty sure it was bugged, it's +2 Attack, +5 Nature Resistance, +5 Nature Magic. It got patched.

[@loki4215]

Valter Fox good to know lol

[@husk79]

awesome ring... it would look cool also with a dark damascus patern!

[@false7618]

love the ring, I have never seen anything like it.

[@flex_ible]

Looks super cool!

[@subiemon]

amazing ring!!!! stainless steel and japanese red maple and sumac!!!!

[@jackreeves3001]

Amazing work and videography!

[@KP-fw8cx]

I love this ring. it is my fav one he has. i want one sooo bad

[@xaviersilverwolf42]

Tiamascus and superconductors are cool but i find this ring increadibly beautiful, i would love to see those materials combined with amber

[@robertevans55]

Any idea on how to do inlay with a bone or antler? I'm completely perplexed as to how you can do this.

[@sharpsh00ter111]

i am a deer hunter and whiskey maker. would love to have this ring. you did a great job on thism keep up the great work and keep them vids coming

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Thank you!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

You can check out this ring on my site here: bit.ly/2JrKNq6 Don't forget to use the discount: NATURE15 Also, check out my Ring Supplies website here: patrickadairsupplies.com/

[@marjorievaughn5125]

I can chug more beers than you Patrick.

[@abodymusic1153]

I have a great idea for a ring. I suggest an obsidian faceted antler inlay with an etched damascus bezel and base with comfort fit with a clear coat finish. It may or may not be a little on the wide side but it will look astonishing

[@alanrodrigues2470]

Hello Patrick i send a mail to you and i anxious to an awnser , its about the real glowstone Lapis lazuli ring , I've been looking for a long time for a ring like that . Could you make one for me? can i have ? please please. Sucess

[@The_Great_Wrennicles_the_IV]

Could you make the one ring from Lord of the Rings with glowing letters? Maybe collaborate with someone to carve the letters? I can't buy it, I just thought that it would be an impressive project.

[@austintaylor6121]

I think this is the one i want to buy for my mom for christmas. It's so pretty

[@jonathondecles9387]

Wiskey and wine barrels are chared on the inside to ad flavor to the product aging in the barrel.

[@seyvanrellandini611]

A gold enfused whisky barrel oak and Damascus steel ring would be really awesome

[@OuijaSTi]

You might benefit from trying some lathe tooling from A.R. Warner. They make insert tooling but with high speed steel inserts which tend to work better on smaller lathes that lack the rigidity and feeds/speeds necessary to properly utilize carbide. Trying your hand at sharpening high speed steel blanks on a bench grinder is a good idea too as you can make tools to fit any shape or situation.

[@Capthrax1]

If you had a more powerful lathe you could drill titanium easier. I use the low geer with mist coolant and spot drill and go straight to a 1/2 Morse taper bit . The bit dulls out because titanium eats steel bits for breakfast but a quick resharpen takes 20 seconds. I normally part off and and enlarge the hole with another bit or just use the boring bar. I only have morse taper bits in 1/8 increments after 1/2 inch so i just pick the closest and bore the rest of the way.

[@Joshua-hz3cl]

Amazing ring

[@MHMecklin]

If you used Damascus steel and etched it in acid and then used organic materials on the side it could be new. And I like this new style. It allows you to be both asymmetric and symmetric based on what you want and the material you choose. Oh and I like the new shots at the end. They really fit with the theme.👍

[@TobiasDettinger]

Awesome ring!

[@ronnewton606]

fantastic, love your work

[@slimjim3229]

Hi I like your videos. Thanks for time pulling them together. Can you please share what resin you use on the oak barrel and antler. I've tried cactus juice on antler for knife handles but it wasn't thick enough.

[@luceddisjones9020]

Patrick, I am a huge fan of your works. Here is an idea for a future ring : Damascus made of titanium and meteorite and a golden skull. Make the ring a size 6.5.

[@JojoDigitalArtist]

I really like Ringf

[@anon_usa4209]

What is the size of the ID and OF that you start out with when making a ring blank?

[@Everdyne]

Beautiful ring yet again. I'm curious to know if you keep all the metal shavings you get from making rings and if you have any ideas on maybe using them in some way?

[@Graaahhhtard]

What do you do with all the scrap metal after the ring is done?

[@rare82breed]

What is the tool called that you're using to slide back and forth to shave down on the Rings

[@carltontaylor4288]

Lignum Vitae and Brazilian Ebony would make a nice combination for a ring...

[@zer0b0t]

Maybe you can use kapton tape instead, it resists the heat better than the electric tape. I thought that the charred part is from the inside of the barrel, btw nice ring

[@stankrieger3598]

I just keep going back to your vids just to pick up more detail while I am getting tools and equipment together. what is a good source for the raw materials used?

[@Silverbeardedsurfer]

I'm loving these ring videos. Need the serpent one if it comes down in price in the future. But unless you Yanks have changed the meaning of the word (which I'd be nonplussed about), then viscosity is how gloopy something is. So if runnier then water, it's the opposite of very viscous. (around 8mins in). Keep the videos coming. Thumbs up.

[@davec5153]

Are oak barrels not charred on the inside before using them?’

[@wescrockett3915]

I would be interested in seeing a ring made from solid stone like sand stone.

[@scristoforo710]

Would you be willing to share what tools are necessary for a project like this?

[@McCulsky]

Amazing. I wonder how long this would last.. wood and all

[@MikkellTheImmortal]

Gotta love the smell of antler eh!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Mammoth tooth is worse

[@deannakoa3]

Need 2 of these

[@Hortonscakes]

Love this! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Uncle_Buzz]

You should send those titanium shavings to Peter Brown to make something with in epoxy. :D Cheers! Chris.

[@bread8646]

Did you just sign a KZbin comment

[@chrisguerette4307]

Do you seal your rings in any way to prevent corrosion and/or discolouration on the finger?

[@curbotize]

This ring is sweet. How much extra do you leave for the inside of the ring before the polishing finish?

[@xXSkyifyXx]

Isn’t viscosity how thick a liquid is? Like the more viscous something is, the thicker?

[@stankrieger3598]

wow, I just got into your supply site.

[@sirociper]

You rock bro!

[@joeyyoung8104]

Hey Patrick I'm beginning to make my own Damascus rings at home and was wondering what it is you use to cool your rings the liquid you use thanks! Also not to be greedy or needy but I have a few questions about your ring making process if you wouldn't mind teaching me a bit

[@alyiezduran5439]

Hey I was just wondering if you can make me a ring like the yellow ring that glows in the dark and it's black as well please and thank you and how much would that be

[@psedonymouscat7282]

What kind of resin do you use in rings?

[@zucclinda9702]

have you ever considered a computer lathe? mid range ones are accurate and you can put all you various cutting bits into it

[@haydenedison]

That’s a pretty ringf

[@NOFX0890]

Damn fine work

[@jaylugia5905]

I have a question i wanne byu a ring but do you sell also in europe?

[@Sleepylock105]

What type of lathe do you use?

[@alanrodrigues2470]

wonderfull job !

[@samjeppi3614]

Petrified wood ring? Is it possible?

[@1972Russianwolf]

he would need lapidary tools. its basically all grinding.

[@fangraverwolf5154]

He has pretty much done that already

[@somedude2492]

Too hard of a material. A pain in the ass, so at some point he'll do it. Don't know if he is masochist or just plain hates himself, but he does the hardest things possible in the hardest way he can find.

[@mystamo]

The CA glue you used is thin and not very viscous. Viscous means thick I think .. Great video as always Pat

[@spike4850]

It would be really cool if you found a porous rock with lots of large holes and fill it with glow powder resin!

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

That’d be sick!

[@spike4850]

Patrick Adair Designs thanks for replying! I hope you imagine what I do! :D

[@jimpeterson3633]

Patrick, where do you purchase your cutters for cutting titanium? Thanks for your great videos.

[@sebastiansibley7357]

Beautiful

[@mannya7104]

Hey can you do a titanium ring that glows a bright/dark red I hope this is a challenge for you plus I think it would be a good ring

[@thedestroyer9512]

Only some parts of antler are porous. It depends on the piece of antler and the animal it came from, as well as its diet and grow speed during antler growth.

[@sissonaterproductions5540]

It’s would have been cool if you had the antler and oak pieces in half and glued them with oak, antler, titanium, antler, oak that would be something cool for you to make

[@JustSonicShorts]

How about a ring made out of quarts crystal if that's possible.

[@gdsconst1]

this really cool but the chard part of the oak is the inside of the barrel

[@jdparker3]

I have a question. I've been lookin at some of your rings, and like many of them, but if my memory serves right when i last checked my ring size, it was like size 17 or something, but yours seem to go up to 15. is there a way to custom order a size, when i get the ring size tester kit in and confirm it anyway.

[@ryujiyamazaki583]

Hi patrick, I have mentioned in almost every video and seems like you don't read comments at all. Can you also show us a video of how you label your ring from the inside of the ring, thank you!

[@trulsdirio]

Antler is actually a bit stronger than wood and in contrast to bone does not tend to develope cracks as easily!

[@DecaziCustomRings]

nice nice i worked with antler and its a painin the ass
