How to make a Dollar BAND Ring

In this instructible I'm going to be showing you how to make a dollar BAND ring. A band ring is, contrary to first impressions of the name, not a ring for band geeks, but simply a ring in and of itself. (No gems!) So far all the other dollar rings I've seen have a little dollar "gem" on top, and that's cool and all but I wanted something, well, less feminine.

Plus they don't really fit big fingers.

Anyways I figured this out on my own a while back and now I want to share the love =P
This is my first instructable so I hope it's not to bad. hahaha

Step 1 What you'll need

What You'll Need. Pretty straight forward if you ask me, hahahaha

1) One Dollar.
2) Your hands.

If you don't have hands I really can't help you, Sorry. =P

[Plo Koon]

Hey, wait. If somebody didn't have hands, then how did they work the mouse to get to this site?

[lifetaker1000]

...........the game  _ 

[freakyqwerty]

Looks cool… I wonder how one could be made out of a English note.

[punkzombiehunter]

Yeah a scottish pound note! That would be pretty cool.

[ThaAWESOMEducttapeguy]

R U Scottish? Lol I'm Ozzie, my dad gave me a dollar from his trip to Malaysia

[punkzombiehunter]

No it's just have a sort of collection of old notes worth a 1 in whatever country they're from such as the old dutch currency. They're not worth anything so might as well use them :L

[JayKay170]

I'm sure you could, I mean this is all bout folds so I think you could do it on any bill, you would just have to tinker with it a little to make it right. I think the English note is wider then the dollar but if you did some extra folds like in steps 2 and 3 I bet you could make it work. =P If you do take a pic! I'd love to see it hahaha =D

[aramos1322]

really kool and easy to make

[aldovisini]

One Question,Whats a Dollar?

[JayKay170]

It's a form of earthling money, much like your Republic credits.. **wink wink** ;D

[vader0ne]

OK THANKS THAT GREEN FILTHY STUFF THATS DOESNT STAY TOO LONG IN MY WALET...GOT IT.:0)

[mike256]

CURSES! Now I lost the game too, but so did the rest of you :D.

Nice ible

[mellonello]

These look really good, now I just need to find a dollar bill . . . (I live in the UK). I wonder if there is a way of waterproofing or protecting them, or is that not really a problem?

[britewood]

US bills are made from a fabric type paper... It makes them much more durable and resistant to the brutal torture we put them through. You can wash them in the washer and then dry them and they just loose the pressed look that they have. So water proofing is not necessary. they will however rip like fabric can.

[JayKay170]

Yup...I've washed my hands wearing it lots of times, the folds and everything keep it intact pretty well. The only thing it really does is loosen it a little bit, which isn't that big of a deal. =P

[capecodjewel]

Very cool! I got my bling on. :)

[FuzzyBearGeek]

I remember back in 4th grade (1975) when a kid came to school with one of these. I told him how cool it looked and asked him to show me how he did it. He was a jerk and told me no. Thanks! :-) Diggin it. Wearing it now. *chuckle*
