Kyle, my son, made this bent wood ring for himself. He chose a bent wood ring blank from some I made a while back, then he went to work on it with sanders, sand paper, files, carving knives, CA glue, and micro mesh. I really like the result. He cut the channel for the inlay banding by...

These are two rings I've made recently for my wife. The darker one was made from a solid walnut blank and the the lighter was made from sapele veneer using a bent wood process. After shaping was finished, I sanded them to 1000 with paper. Then, I applied CA glue and sanded up to 12000. Have...

This bentwood ring was created for a client who wanted to match two woods on an existing wooden watch for her husband…I'm lucky if my socks match… :)

Bending wood is hard…until it's soft. ;) Not sure how many girls are on this forum but no matter. I have enjoyed looking at many awesome projects here and thought to throw some of mine into the mix. This is my first bentwood ring I ever sold and it was a huge hurdle for me as it took lots...

Here's my 2nd attempt at making a bentwood ring. It's a little messy, I know. I need more practice but I think it turned out pretty good. I had some problems with finishing but I've at least learned to avoid some things. Curly English Sycamore liner and E Indian Rosewood.

Turned two separate ring blanks and combined them into the final ring. Voila :)

This is actually American walnut that was smoked on its edges for a rustic looking bentwood ring. This was a fun and new process for my bentwood rings and I was quickly reminded that wood does actually burn easily. :) Do ya'll (yes, Texas) like the look? I wonder how other woods would...

I've tried to make a few wood rings in the past, mostly by cutting using a hole saw and then taking it to a drum sander to shape it. Well, for my birthday I bought myself a nice bench top lathe and figured I would give turning rings and other jewelry a go. Never having used a lathe before, this...

Bit of an experiment made over a couple of days now that my hand is starting to feel better. The woods used are all native NZ timber: external is rimu and the darker wood is river matai. The inner core is totara veneer.

My first attempt at wooden rings. My girlfriend showed me a picture of a wooden ring and asked if I could make one for her. I didn't have any idea how to make one, but after looking at a few pictures and doing some reverse engineering I came up with a plan. I started by gluing some blanks of...

Hi guys! Been a while since I posted but had to share one of my favorite new inlay rings. I love Ebony wood for bentwood rings! Strong, durable and looks beautifully rich. What can I say about Chrysocolla??? Hmmm…..I love it! It captures of beauty of any wood type that I inlay with this...

I love it when my clients send me something of theirs that is symbolic to inlay into their rings. This very sweet man from Canada sent me three different sands from three beaches (Stanley Park Third Beach, Kitsilano Beach and Sunset Beach) that were meaningful to his girlfriend and had me...

I did not take any pictures during the process, silly me. The base or bottom is a 1 inch thick plywood with a veneer on the side facing up. Free turning wheels with locking mechanism are mounted to the four corners. Most of the slats are beech with some being maple when I ran short. I used a...

My wife was kind enough to give me a Saturday afternoon off from any parenting duties. So I ran out to the shop and to try making my first ring. Apparently my skin chemistry doesn't like tungsten rings and tarnished my wedding band. I have been wanting to replace it for years now. I made this...

This is the first bentwood ring i've made that came out decent enough I felt I could Share it on Lumber Jocks. It's made from some scrap walnut veneer with a piece of brass inlay that's "pear" shaped. I finished it with two coats of quality CA glue, sanded down to 1500 grit, polished with...

One of my first stone inlays using malachite. I love making bentwood rings and adding other raw materials from nature just makes it that much enjoyable. Any of you guys and gals have ideas for other raw material beyond the ordinary that I could attempt to inlay on my bentwood rings? Shannon
