Revised Design - Infinity Ring

 
 



 
Being pressured to complete the ring on time, I completely forgot to put up the renderings of the revised design for the infinity ring. The client had asked for the ring width to be reduced. This is just another way of CAD making life easier by being able to tweak and edit the existing file efficiently to suit the clients new request.

Wrong ring size

 

So this is what happens when your client decides to propose to his girlfriend and gives you the wrong finger size...her finger swelled up so much that the ring had to be cut off due to it not being able to come off. Have to admit, it was a shame that the rings had to be wrecked but it was really interesting seeing how to cut off a ring without harming the wearer.

Cluster Ring - Complete





 
I have just completed designing of the cluster ring on Rhino. We have forwarded the above images to the client and if she is happy with the design we would then send it in for casting. I hope there are no issues and it casts well.

Rhino cluster ring


Above is an image of a ring which I have to design on Rhino for a client. I have never designed a cluster ring on Rhino before but there's always going to be a first for everything....

Rhino design a complete fail

 





The casting and printing was a complete failure, it is nearly impossible to set stones on this ring as the claws are all blobed together. Back to the drawing board or in this case Rhino

Casting retake



Due to the time restrictions given on this infinity ring, I had to use another printing company in Johannesburg. I am amazed with the outcome. It is so much cleaner and neater than the previous company that I used. The infinity sign on this ring and the previous are exactly the same yet I am able to have this ring set and it's impossible with the other.
