Now if you decide to try and form some rings or make some wax models of rings a good thing
to have is a mandrel, a ring mandrel. This is a heavy steel ring mandrel, it’s got
the sizes from one to sixteen. It can make any size ring according to whatever you need.
That’s also how jewelers will reshape and reshank rings if they get knocked out of whack
or misshapen through wear. You will hammer it out on a mandrel with a rawhide mallet
so as to not mar it up. To find your ring size if you decide to get into rings or just
like to know you can find these ring sizers this is for more wedding band style or thicker
band and they also have the ones for smaller slimmer engagement style rings. That’s basically
how you would figure out what you’re working with, what you need.
