Three Rings
I had an order for a size 15 ring with blue Azurite inlay so I turned 3 of them- a 15, a 15 1/2 and a 16.......just in case it needed to be a little bigger.
The base ring is mesquite turned across the grain. I had 4 others turned with the grain and they all broke on the expanding mandrel.
The are finished with shellac and then EEE and Shellawax

Damn JJ, on first glance that leading picture would have sent Sheriff John on LJ gasping for air and reaching for his hatchet.
I was even concerned for here... however seeing the base of that second appendage, I realised you were fingering me.

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
