  • Chisels: Roughing Gouge, Detail Gouge, Par?ng Tool, Skew
  • Sandpaper: 150-600 Aluminum Oxide for wood, micro fine for Plastic
  1. A. Use a piece of scrap wood for mounting your ring blank. Size about 1-1/2 x 2” long. Mark the center and use 4 screws to mount the Face Plate in the center
  2. B. Mount the assembly in a drill chuck or lathe chuck in the Headstock end.
    Note: PSI drill chuck style #TM42 can be safely screwed onto the headstock.

  • H. Use a parting tool to hollow out your blank up to the scribed diameter. Smooth the edges of the inside hollow flat. Make the depth deeper than the ring width.

  • I. Continue to size the ID of the Ring Blank until the Comfort ring slides easily inside. Make sure there is sufficient depth to accept the ring width.

  • J. Measure the width of the ring with a caliper. Use the caliper to scribe a line on the blank with a par?ng tool to the exact width of the comfort ring. Part the ring exte-rior completely off the blank. Clean up any rough edges

  • K. If using a transparent blank (i.e. many plastics) it will be necessary to paint the ring exterior a matching color

  • L. After the paint dries, Carefully glue ring core Inside the blank

  • M. Mount the assembly onto a ring mandrel. A cone mandrel is shown above. Tighten the mandrel to se-curely hold the ring. A “Bushing Style” mandrel can be used instead however that style mandrel does not give easy access to the sides around the ring.

  • N. Turn and smooth the edges of the ring blank around the Ring core

  • O. Sand the blank down the same as any other turning project. Start with 150 grit through 600/800 Aluminum oxide paper. Wet sand with the ultra fine sanding sticks for a polished finish. Wood rings can be sealed with CA glue.
