How to make a ring from cast off copper pipe

Step 5 Show it off

Clean the polishing materials off the ring, then slide it on and show it off. I found that it was just a little to big for my 8.5 sized ring finger, so it probably is a 9 or 9.5 ring size. Unfortunately, it is too small for my index finger (where I want it.)

It turns out it fits my wife's thumb pretty well, but she does not like thumb rings. So now I need to figure out how to enlarge it.

I just purchased a 3/4 inch copper coupling for this project.  My fingers are rather large and this fit me the best.  If you are looking for a somewhat larger size that the 1/4 inch you might try the coupling... Also I am going to try some simple engraving with my diamond tip dremel attachment.  I may do simple lines or circles or something.  Cheers and thanks for the instructable, its great!
