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.

Can u come to me

[@christopherenmon241]

Can u give to me

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

I would like to have one of these. It's amazing looking!

[@SteadyBark96720]

A master of your craft👍🏾

[@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!

[@leegee8904]

The sheer fact that the proud owner of a Mammoth tooth ring can tell people exactly what it is is the coolest part of the whole design/ring!!! Love it!!

[@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!

[@FastHemi]

I was a machinist for over 25 years. And you sir do some very nice work. Your vids have given me the idea to get a bench top lathe and mill to do some jewelry work. I have all the tooling, but no machines. I sure do miss turning handles.

[@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

[@claude7122]

That's the best 1 you did so far for me...love it. It look's great.

[@khosimokhesi6273]

This is, as so many of your other creations, gorgeous!

[@ThatAsianKid75]

I think the editing style is perfect now. Not overkill, but extremely visibly pleasing.

[@MsSilentH]

Well worth all the hard work you put into it. And I do really love using a material as old as mammoth tooth and then something so new and techy as carbon fiber.

[@stephenehret9684]

This ring looks SO COOL

[@rottytravis3491]

I love how you use such rare and unique materials and how you show us the problems you have to combat! Keep the videos coming!

[@gabehartman6832]

This is my favorite ring so far. Beautiful.

[@Welvryn]

For all the difficulty you had with it, it turned out amazing!

[@MarieJoBecker1]

For me, this is the most beautiful ring you have made so far! ♥ The tedious work was worth it!!

[@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.

[@pepethefrog3054]

This is the coolest ring ever

[@mikerb2473]

That is the coolest ring you've done.

[@cb7234]

I've done a bit of scrimshaw on mamoth tooth, amazing material with beautiful patterns. Not boring like ivory.

[@suicideking666]

The look of the ring is almost more amazing than what it's made out of

[@WilAdams]

This ring, and your talents are utterly AMAZING. I know I missed the drawing, but I just found you a day or so ago, and just WOW!

[@JgHaverty]

Finally a ring maker that knows what a dial indicator is! :D Beautiful ring.

[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Haha, thanks!

[@potentronkel2843]

Dude, I'm making rings by myself but what you are doing there ist so much better and beyond my limits I can't watch your videos without getting very jealous. Keep it up and I will be happy to see my shop getting to the point where you are now. Your video editing is also great. It really makes things easy to understand. I am so amazed!

[@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.

[@Ver0xinArt]

This ring looks amazing! Love the color of the mammoth tooth. Great job👍

[@bropocalypse2065]

You have mad skills and excellent attention to detail! Very nice work!

[@NOFX0890]

Absolutely amazing work.

[@trixshop5188]

Phenomenal ring man. So inspiring.

[@DanielXStaub]

That is one amazing looking ring.

[@laughingman9364]

This ring ist amazing. Super Job

[@christophertrollan1188]

That looks incredible!

[@jackt6344]

Awesome ring. I LOVE it

[@dorothymarsh-aller3336]

Those colors would perfect for a dining room table , in apoxry resin

[@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!

[@shamwisegamji7361]

Just ordered the glow mammoth tooth, stoked!!!!

[@saucyllama1463]

I will be purchasing my wedding ring from you in a year or so. You have an amazing style, and eye for detail. Such class

[@jamielake-boyd3600]

It is incredibly. Love it

[@creationspecialistclips6204]

the ring came out great man keep up the good work

[@da9elb]

Make sure that your chuck tool are centered when you are measuring the throw in the ring :)

[@philipfullerton393]

That Looks AMAZING

[@Atomic_Haggis]

You're a true artisan, Patrick. Beautiful work, every time. Even when the material doesn't cooperate or smells like ass!

[@boskinay]

Have you tried using grinding stones on the dremel instead of sanding drums?

[@beboadel3429]

very cool ring and unique

[@Mig2133]

Wow...as always a pleasure to watch your videos.... Nice job man keep up the good work.

[@disturbedphil21]

Using a glow resin for the tooth would look awesome

[@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

[@soundmapper]

Use your tailstock to center your ring mandrel. Then buy one of those flex extension cables for the Dremel and mount that in a tool holder for your lathe. You should be able to greatly increase concentricity of ID and OD.

[@crashwelder5337]

use joy soap for cutting fluid . honestly works great for a lot of materials

[@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.

[@coffee_powder]

BRILLIANT!!!!!

[@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.

[@loganharvathdesigns9612]

Oh come on! I keep trying to think of ideas for rings and you keep taking all the good ones! But really, good work on this one, it looks amazing. :D

[@johnbiggs7620]

This is really cool. I turned a pen with mammoth tooth I wish I could show you a picture. Keep up the great videos 🖒

[@starrstatus9341]

Very beautiful ring sir.

[@wizard420tdawg2]

IM IN AWE!!! MOUTH DROP!! SO SO BAD ASS BRO!!!!

[@user-pm2iz6fx8b]

These materials are mind blowing 🤣😂

[@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"*

[@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.

[@manamejeffbeezos]

I'm so pumped I found this channel.

[@bubblywaters3116]

You do such incredible work!

[@witiwap86]

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

[@OSOKiiNG]

You do amazing work!!!!

[@beasty909]

oooh now that mammoth tooth is gorgeous!!! :0 xx edit that carbon fiber inlay looks really good with that mammoth tooth really nice results xx thanks pat xx

[@zekefrom3348]

Hey, that sleeve is a really good idea! Thanks for the video, that tooth looks amazing

[@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?

[@chargerv82001]

Amazing👍👌 good work

[@macbro414]

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

[@Countdracula6]

Looks amazing good job man!

[@XpideRG]

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

[@Michael-xo8lw]

Amazing work.

[@NoBody-kv3yd]

That is gorgeous

[@DLR2542]

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

[@ABACUStoPC]

Beautiful ring! Mammoth tooth is extremely hard to work with, it can crack or break very easily when drilling holes, you did the right thing to have it glued onto a piece of wood so that it can be drilled without cracking again, ask knife makers they will tell you mammoth teeth are nightmares for beginners

[@MegaDanmusic1]

Awesome ring

[@iRDude415]

Woaaahhhh, this is so unexpected, so cool! This actually made my day! Keep it comin' My Man!

[@Robare69]

I think it would be awesome to have the epoxy used to hold the mammoth tooth together had glow powder mixed in.

[@infinitivez]

You and waterjet channel, are freakin' awesome!!! You make a great pair!

[@hdm6897]

Wow i would love one of those rings , i appreciate the time effort and love you put into making these rings! One day ill buy one ill have to save up .but thank u for such awesome stuff.

[@WhispaSZN]

MAKE THE ONE RING

[@luckyhobbit8894]

Tide Pods I'd buy that

[@brettk8956]

Justin Formes same

[@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?

[@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

[@jz3488]

Amazing look. Would love to see that material used for a watch band.

[@darkwolfid6443]

omg dude that looks so amazing

[@bellrealestatephotojerrybe7904]

That is spectacular

[@5ienaa]

Hey man I really love you work I think you are doing professional job with the ring you even inspired me to try to make wooden ring (because of my country we have very low budget) I hope you keep up with your great job!!!

[@kingarthurkingofthebritons6377]

I never knew I wants a mammoth tooth ring until now

[@calebbeer2771]

When will you be putting more ring making stuff on the supplies website?

[@mystamo]

Came out fantastic. Those crazy ole water jet fellas. Ever make a ring out of solid bone? I'm thinking a tibia or something should have enough bone on it to cut out a ring. I know you've used bone bits before.

[@deepakmodi10]

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

[@Snu..]

I hope you get the materials to make this again. By far my favorite ring.

[@arnaudgoffin]

Nice job !

[@younesazamiyan1882]

Good job!!! The effort you put in your work is admiring. Just one question: what kind of equipments you need to get started for a beginner?

[@tundederijk2044]

That looks so awesome... I would never have thought it possible, tbh

[@foodseeker-d4s]

i love ur rings 😻😻😻😻😻

[@jamesmay2343]

very nice pattern

[@debdottir]

Beautiful.

[@ltjorge16]

I was wondering is there any way or material that you can make a ring that looks like ice?

[@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

[@JunkyardTavern]

Man you earned a subscriber! your rings are awesome!
