It looks pretty but it's a shame that copper turns your finger green
SeriousCloud
Two by two hands of blue.

I promise to keep my butt hole waxed for you
HughLaurie
Is it treated somehow, to keep the copper from oxidizing and turning the ring and your finger, green?
DavidJohn360
I use layers of renaissance wax to place a barrier between the skin and the metal

I should really get a lathe.
DavidJohn360
Do it! It’s extremely satisfying and rewarding :) #slavetothelathe

Very nice work and reasonably priced!

That's awesome for such a gorgeous product. In a few years when I'm not a student and have a bit more income, hopefully I can support
DavidJohn360
Thank you! Too kind :)

I'll be buying one next month and maybe one a month for a while.
DavidJohn360
I look forward to hearing from you in future, If you’re still interested

Excellent. @OP You should do guitar inlay work, you are very skilled
DavidJohn360
Thank you so much! I really do appreciate the compliment ^^ You’re tempting me to restore my old beat up guitar!
TheRicM

Wouldn't mind one. Question is if they damage or scratch easily.
DavidJohn360
I use layers of CA, micro mesh and T cut polish to prevent scratches and such
CaseyRoy442
Thanks for the feedback. Just needed the assurance because I've destroyed multiple wedding bands already. I will look into purchasing.
CaseyRoy442
Also do you take custom requests for a particular type of wood for the ring? Just curious.
DavidJohn360
I do custom work too, my new workshop will be opening soon so my range will also extend too titanium, stainless and Damascus steel

Lol that was supposed to be doot- so I can reference later
PyromancyArt
Im aware theyre hand made , but why do some go up to 100gbp? Dont downvote pls i just notice a lot of stuff is overpriced on etsy, 1/2
PyromancyArt
Regardless of it being handmade or not. 2/2
DavidJohn360
2/2 I also wouldn’t want to under undercut and undervalue other craftsfolk and designers over on Etsy.
DavidJohn360
Because of the time it takes it make, the cost of materials, rentals and bills. It’s also to keep at a current market price
PyromancyArt
Is this your only source of income ? Im not being a pain but some stuff is too expensive for what it is
DavidJohn360
It is my source of income yes, I keep my prices according to the current rates of other sellers on Etsy to keep everything fair 1/2
DavidJohn360
The copper inserts are also melted down, purified and cast into ingot cylinders and then machined to size. It’s a long process. 2/2
Necrothean
If a knitted tea cozy is 100$+ I see your point, but a copper and semi precious stone inlay on a hand milled ring? 100$ is cheap.
