Very nice, it looks as if there is some degree of size adjustment possible in the larger one, too. Dennis.

Thanks Dennis,
if i was going to make it bigger i think i'd prefer to take a file to it or cut a section out to reduce.
more pics...

Thanks everyone! nice to get good feedback , especially for the big one - i thought that might be a bit OTT!
I was certain my dad wouldn't wear a ruby ring anyway so i thought i'd just go to town on it:Y:
...I started with a basic wax model done in delft clay. most of the shaping was done with burrs and i do love a good file!
