This looks like a pretty simple process, as an experienced Lapidary I would caution using the same rinse water between the steps of sanding. It's just so easy to contaminate your sanding pads. Great video though, I can't wait to get started.
We have no experience with metal lathes for making the metal bands. If you are just talking about doing the inlay with the metal bands any mini lathe will work. In this video we are using our Laguna 12|16 but I have been using the King Industrial Mini Lathe lately and it's been working great for me.
@@tworighthands Yes we checked it out. Very cool and using the drill press instead of a lathe, nice work. And for all of our viewers, here is Two right Hands ring video link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-akfZh-OZFtk.html
