About

You’ll use hammers to texture the inner, or core, ring band, and using the ring stretcher, make it the correct size for your finger. You’ll make the spinner ring out of pre-patterned silver wire, and use the ring stretcher to make it fit over the core ring band. After polishing the parts separately, you’ll put the two rings together and flare the edges of the core ring to capture the spinning ring.
