    Hollow construction rings

    Here are some pics rings that I designed and fabricated from sheet metal. Please note, I am a beginner not a pro.

    The first set are sterling silver:








    And this one is sterling silver and copper:

    Both look great! How exactly did you make the second?
    How do you guys like the fit of my new CCP suit?

      thanks...for the second ring, I fused the sterling filings from the pierce work on first set: I cleaned a strip of copper, fluxed, unevenly sprinkled the cleaned filings, torched till the silver flashed and fused to the copper. To accent the variations, I patinaed with liver of sulphur (the very last step in construction).

            Thanks for the kind words.

            I'll post my next project: an installation of pins. At the moment, it's in the concept stage. Details will follow.
