the Inuit Eagle Ring
SO this ring was very difficult for us to make. Lindsey had made the ring but the customer didn't like the eagle's head so Lindsey had to cut it apart and flatten it out. I then had to cut out a different eagle's head and part of the wings. Then I had to heat up the ring enough for the solder to flow and pick the original eagle head off which wasn't to easy. Then I soldered on the new head and stamped the text on the inside of the band. Next I re-form the band into a ring and solder it closed. Then had to file and sand it a bunch to clean it up. To finish the ring, I oxidized the piece and brushed it with the brass brush. I was told that the customer is happy with it.
