    Default 2 colour ring

    [IMG][/IMG]


    The ring was designed on the computer from the customers idea

    I cast the parts individually in different metals the yellow is 18ct gold the white is platinum, I prefer using platinum for the accent metal over gold because it doesn't need rhodium plating and so saves time masking the yellow off .This picture shows the parts with there sprues on them. I then 3d printed them

    A computer generated render for the customer to approve, The ring at this point is made virtually (its digital coodinates) and has all the information contained in it to be able to print a 3D model

    The Platinum after casting the temperature of the metal when cast is over 1800degC things get really Hot !!!!
