So, by the grace of God, I’ve met the girl of my dreams, and for some unfathomable reason, she wants to spend her life with me.We’re both blue-collar weirdos who prefer functionality over looks. She's made it very clear she does NOT want an expensive ring. Says jewellers are a scam and she’d be just as thrilled with a $3 ring from Temu.So, I’m thinking of making her a ring—symbolic and cheap, like me! I want to use 316 Stainless Steel and inlay two thin copper bands using some scrap wire from my electrician days, something resembling pic.Problem: I don’t have a lathe or any tools. I was thinking of rigging something up with a Dremel, a vice, and probably weld together some jigs that look like they were crafted by a mad scientist.So, any genius ideas on how I can pull this off without breaking the bank? Help a bro out!
>>2871054First off, do you know her ring size?You can get a set of plastic ring size gauges pretty easily. I only have experience making g10 rings with a lathe, what other tools do you have in your shop? If your welder capable do you have a drillpress?I can think of couple ways but you could make/buy a insert cutter-reamer and use a drill press to get the interior pretty close before hand sanding. Copper wire idea sounds not so hot honestly, plus keep in mind stainless can be a pain with work hardening. Copper also tends to oxidize and smell. Some people really really hate it. Ti would be ideal but is also a pain to work with. If it was the love of my life id prototype it and wear it while working on stuff to see how it holds up on the daily with whatever material-size-design choice. Congrats though anon.
>>2871054here OP let me fix your post since you ramble about shit that isn't important.this is what you should have posted:>I need to make a ring that looks like this.>can someone tell me how to google a jeweler >shop or machine shop that can do it for me >because I am a worthless piece of shit.see OP was that so hard. your fiance made a really bad choice.
You can't do it without tools. Purchase or borrow some tools.
>>2871054>Stainless Steel>CopperI give it a week before it's tarnished, galvanically corroded, and scratched to hell and back.Get a pair of tungsten rings and have them ingraved like a basic bitch and then pipe the cunt for a month straight on your honeymoon. Tell her you got the rings from a falling star or some bullshit if you want her wet.
>>2871054>woman says "she doesn't care how much the ring costs"That, Sunny Jim, was a test. You are about to get an "F".
