[@PatrickAdairDesigns]

Great idea and the result was even better!

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Patrick Adair Designs thank you man, that means a lot coming from KZbins most prolific ring maker haha. I’ve learned a lot from your channel and other makers on the platform so it feels good giving something back!

first time viewing this guy and first i was thinking awe hes a massive talker but as he got in to the thing he showed just the important stuff and said what needed to be said. i dont subscribe to channels often but i did today. good job Guy.

Very nice ring. Thank you for sharing. Everyone stay safe, happy 😊 and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

[@wtfdandisser]

Awesome video! I'm not much of a maker but I can definitely appreciate the process! That ring came out looking awesome!

[@michaellowrey8159]

My upcoming project. Making 2 1 for my daughter and 1 for myself. I let her pick out the wood which is a Little lighter but does have dark areas. It's listed as Olive. Have the watch parts and glue. Hoping for a decent attempt. Watching again

[@breaves82]

This is a great ring but the tutorial itself was very helpful!!! I got to see that the stages my bentwoods are at are normal and how to proceed! you did a great job! Brand new to bentwoods

Yo, Patrick Adair Designs sent me your way, and this is my first video. Totally subscribed. Great project, and your humour is refreshing. Thanks for the video!

I told my friend about this ring and said I'd try to make him one. He was VERY excited. If I do make one, I'll send you a pic of it to see what you think!

[@Ashleyc30075]

Brilliant job, would love to see same ring made again but with small silver skulls in. That would look awesome 😊😊

[@ralphgibson3696]

Just an outstanding video on the Steam Punk Ring, and an excellent step by step how to video. Also appreciate your links to the Teespring products. Ordered a "Slave To The Lathe Mug" for my brother, that got me hooked on CNC Milling and Pen Making with a small lathe. Looking forward to checking out your other videos. Cheers

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Thank you so much. Many comments I get on here these days are negative or snarky so I really appreciate it 👊🏽😁

[@simonbarnard1861]

Any reason why you ‘file’ grooves on the lathe rather than use a thin parting tool or a point tool to cut them like normal Woodturning?

[@theguitarpicker]

That is an awesome ring!

[@sjscreations2608]

Looks bloody great, but there has to be a better way to carve out a recess in your ring, rather than using different shaped files? What about a chisel or lathe tools? Your finishes come up a treat and they look fantastic. Congrats bro! Cheers Sean

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

The Bungling Woodworker thank you! Yes it’s easy enough to cut that inlay channel with a chisel on the lathe. I did try but I messed it up haha.

[@bobdaz12]

Hi Dan..I’ve made this Steampunk ring and as you say, it’s tedious. Everything went well until i started using the ca. All my hard work was covered with a mixture of milky ca and black paint! The paint i used was Vallejo Model Color 17 ml Acrylic Paint - Matt Black and the ca was Everbuild 2 stick....i didn’t use accelerator and the wood was completely dry..Any idea Dan?...Some Jack Daniels calmed me down to just above boiling point!

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Hey dude. UV resin from Alumilite is the best finish for these rings ✅👊🏽

[@bobdaz12]

@@ZebranoWoodCraft Cheers mate..

[@Mrpoopin99]

Hey! Does anybody know where you can buy the wood to make these bent wood rings?

[@infinitywoodoz214]

Hi Dan, AGAIN what an amazing, awesome and beautiful ring. I've been watching you video now for 2 years plus and your ring and bracelet ideas are so impressive. My question is, how the hell you know what socket you use for the right ring size... lol everytime I try, the ring ends up to small or to large. Have you got a document or can you do a video of getting the right size ring. Thank you mate and also a huge thank you for your entertaining videos.

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Hey thank you so much for checking out my videos! It depends on the finish - if using CA choose a socket 1/2-1 size bigger than needed. If you're oiling it then choose one slightly smaller. I've been planning to make a course/ebook kind of thing for a long time, maybee I should get working on it!

[@divaldosilva1720]

Olá amigo qual o nome dessa cola que você usa ?

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Haha yeah man I'm alive - just been very busy in the workshop but I have a cool project video coming soon. I wish I could publish more, it just takes ageeeees haha.

[@boncreationsza]

I tried this 3 times, each time i add the ca glue, it either doesn't dry, and if i spray with activator, it turns everything white, then the ring is ruined. I tried thin, and thick ca glue. Both doesn't dry. Seems impossible to fill this big gap with ca.

[@АлексейТрофимов-ф5у]

cool stuff. thanks

[@Zakamooza]

i need to know what glue you are using ! thank you

[@griff2000]

hi great rings where do you get your vineer from and can i get it local ( Swansea ) I want to make wife one, ive made rings from steel nuts but want to make wood rings now. Griff

[@nebyevrah8836]

You can use any venir

[@griff2000]

I always get the first wrap stuck on the socket any advice?

[@nebyevrah8836]

Use less glue, or alternatively you could try oiling the socket, this will prevent the glue from sticking, it's also a good trick for your hands if your not wearing gloves

[@robertmariner7640]

Impressive

[@dawsie]

Don’t forget to add the rubies that are in the watches, they are used to seat in the moving parts 😹 I have been collecting all the rubies out of all the old and some new watches that I have been pulling apart unfortunately some of the new watches are run with batteries and as such not much in the way of moving parts. Many of the rubies do pop out easy but some will not move so I have kept them as they are for a different project in the future. I do like the ring I have been wanting to make one but it’s on hold while I work on my storage cabinets first 😹😹😹

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Yes! I have a couple of movements with rubies in them but they are super small! Good luck with your cabinets

[@dawsie]

Zebrano Wood Craft thank you 😹 I’m having fun designing my own cabinets and making them after that it’s building my own kitchen the way I want it 😹😹😹 Shame some of the rubies I have found have been 4mm x 1mm which have been great but then I have collected over a few hundred old/semi old watches with a few semi modern ones the very old watches from late 1800 to early 1900 have had the larger rubies in them 😸 most of the ones pre/post WWII have been medium to smallish special all the ones from 80’ and 90’s 😹😹 anything from 2000 on are waste of time(pun intended😹) as they are mostly all electrical with plastic movements unless you have one of the super expensive watches that is🙀😹 mind you I would not be pulling them apart😹😹😹😹

[@jordanlafferty8775]

How do you you accurately size bentwood rings?

[@nebyevrah8836]

A lot of people use socket sets and create a few mock ups to gauge the size of the different sockets, or the sockets will have the millimetres on them, it takes some figuring out but you can work out what sizes correlate

[@aceparable1]

Where did you get your inspiration? This looks strikingly similar to my design from 2016. You can find my little store SteamWoodworks on Etsy and Facebook. Let me know what you think.

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Steam Woodworks I can honestly say that I’d never seen your shop before and the ring you referred to is a beauty! I was actually inspired by the Yoke Pen Company who make watch part pens and I just thought it would look cool as a ring.

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Steam Woodworks really nice touch where you lined the inlay with brass was it?

[@aceparable1]

I'm not surprised you haven't seen my shop before haha. I just think it's interesting that two people can have similar ideas on opposite sides of the globe, with different inspirations. 7 billion people. It has to happen eventually :) Yes I used brass sheet, almost paper thin. You can cut it with scissors. There's not much space to work with, in these rings, as I'm sure you know. Thanks for looking at my designs. Always happy to share ideas. And thank you for the videos. There is always more to learn.

What size WAS The Ring 10 mm 8 mm BLANK ? I Bought A 8 mm 6 mm BLANK HARD To GET Part S To FIT

This ring was 10mm wide and I had to trim some of the watch parts down too.
