Hammered ring

<p>Once the ends are soldered together it&#39;s surprising just how easily the ring becomes circular. I add consistent hammer blows to the ring whilst turning it, sometimes working on a particular area if it&#39;s clearly eccentric, but it tends to become circular pretty quickly.</p> <p>This method of hammering the ring will also increase the diameter and thin-out the sides, so it&#39;s a useful method to change the dimensions of the ring but worth being aware not to hammer it too much if that&#39;s not desired!</p> <p>The ring looks beautiful, maybe there&#39;s a way to use this somewhere!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
