Very nice.

The internal combustion engine piston rings I have made, I always break them using the hammer breaking method. Ring making is definitely an art. Some people make it look easy. I’ve ruined many rings to get a few perfect ones.

Thanks for watching. I spent quite a few hours making a part that looks so simple! But, a year ago I didn’t even know it was possible for the home shop.
