An acquaintance asked me to make her engagement ring for her, and this is what we came up with.
-
We started in CAD and designed the ring to come to an agreement on the design. This is the rendering we agreed on. I then printed the model from the CAD file to cast the ring.
-
The 3D print right out of the printer. The purple is support material and the blue is model material.
-
This is the printed model after the support has been removed and it has been sprued and ready for investment.
-
We decided to cast in 18k gold. This is 11 pennyweights of gold that was needed for the casting.
-
This is the ring just after casting.
-
And this is the finished ring. 1-1carat diamond. 10-1.7mm diamonds, 14-1.3 mm diamonds and 2-2mm black diamonds set in 18k gold.
