Hopefully, I’ll have more projects on this page soon.  I just need to come up with the idea, design it and try it out.  So, it could be a while.  In the meantime, here is one:

Make a Saddle Ring.  I’ve included patterns, a video on how I created the pattern and instructions on how to make the ring – including soldering on a bezel.
