We have used several different ring mandrels over the last few years. We have decided to give our best review on each of the different mandrels. I am sorry for the audio! Some weird things were going on with my mic as I was recording and filming at the same time on this one! Thank you for watching, comment your questions!

Recently I have been making wood bushings for each ring. This is very helpful! Thank you!

@DreamwoodRings 2 года назад

That sounds like a lot of work! I am glad this was helpful! Thank you :)

@CSSkoolieProject 2 года назад

I appreciate this video man. I just started my ring making journey and will be buying the CF mandrels This week from you. I bought the artisan chuck and am happy with it, but I agree that I don't have enough room. I also have your set of jaws as well as the boring tool knob in my cart also. What a great idea! Pretty badass that you offer at such a great price. Thanks a ton!

New at turning .. Thanks for explaining the collet chuck holder in the beginning. For that I subscribed !! It was extremely helpful. Question .. why might my wood ring not be the same thickness all the way around. It measures 6 mm at its thinnest and creeps up to 9 mm as I go around the ring ? Ty

@DreamwoodRings Месяц назад

Thank you! Happy to hear that helped. It could be wobbling on the lathe, or just cut crooked?

@danielbrown5630 Год назад

Hi there, I’m a novice machinist and brand new to ring making. I saw you indicating off the ring, I wondered for here at home, do you have a method for verifying if there is any runout in the ring itself to get a close idea of the accuracy of the fixtures themselves? I know in the case of this video you were going for relative comparisons. I couldn’t quite tell if your indicator had any preload, for some fixtures it appeared to have some and for others it didn’t. All the same, I appreciate the demonstration of what’s available!

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

Hey Daniel, I tried my best to 0 out every mandrel. For rings at home I'm not quite sure! If you find a way let me know. I've never really had a problem with the minimum amount of runout though. Thanks for the comment and for watching!

@smithcrafters1479 2 года назад

Interesting video. I’m actually in the middle of designing myself a new mandrel, because the runout I’m getting isn’t acceptable on everything else I have. I’m looking for fairly high precision, and I’m hoping for less than 0.003” of runout when it’s finished.

@DreamwoodRings 2 года назад

That would be amazing! Thanks for watching, If you get it worked out I would love to see the final product.

@smithcrafters1479 2 года назад

@@DreamwoodRings will do. I found your profile on Instagram, I’m more active there so I’ll reach out to you over there

@notsure1384 11 месяцев назад

If you use the proper sized bushings on the artisan mandrel for the ring size you're turning, clearance shouldn't be an issue.

@DreamwoodRings 10 месяцев назад

Yes you do get enough clearance, but with sanding I like to be able to flatten out the sand paper to make sure I am not oversanding into the channel. And with the pieces on the edges it makes that difficult.

@Leftturn64 Год назад

Very nice and informative. I have a question. not sure f it is your channel where I saw it. I have a piece of wood. quite special to me. I want to mount it on a 8mm inlay blanc. Not sure, if I break it apart (2 Pieces) how will i mount it? ow will i compensate for the loss of meterial where the break is. if you can assist, that would be great, or just point me in a direction please.

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

Hi I have a video on that very thing! Check under videos and how to inlay wood and antler. You just need to make your wood inside diameter around .1-.2mm bigger than the ring diameter for it to fit perfectly.

@minniemouse7803 Год назад

Great video, thanks for sharing.

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

Thank you! Since the video we have released our own centering mandrel as well.

@robertstarner8083 Год назад

When you use the “Unimandrel” on your metal lathe, how do you attach it to the head stock??? Three jaw chuck…..Four jaw chuck??? Thank you

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

I am currently using a 3 jaw chuck. I'd love a collet chuck though!

@pedroelcubano1 Год назад

Awesome....whats the size of your clampling collect?

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

Thank you! I believe 1/2"

@rickbadessa4897 2 месяца назад

How do you pull out the livestock end piece after your ring is complete... Seems like it might wedge itself in

@contrailmodels Год назад

What type of lathe do you have? I see it is a JET but what type metal or wood and HP or does it really matter when dealing with rings

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

sorry for the delay! I have a Jet 1221 lathe. I started out on the small harbor freight lathe though.

@carolmendenhall5285 Год назад

Do you have a link for the lathe that I would need to buy to make these rings

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

Hi Carol, any table top wood lathe would do the trick! You can start with a cheap harbor freight wood lathe if you wanted to!

@jaivenmayvis5811 Год назад

What is the brand/name of the fancy expensive one?

@DreamwoodRings Год назад

That one is from Ringsupplies. Called Unimandrel. We have since released a similar one that I should do this same test . shopdreamwood.com/products/centering-ring-mandrel-carbon-fiber-nylon
