Description

We finally managed to find a better made ring tool. This one costs a little more, but it's made of stainless steel and the slots are precisely machined. And the large slot is even big enough for 14g rings. The ring tool can be used with one pair of pliers to open and close rings. Included in all Beginning Weave Kits.

I'm impressed	December 21, 2007
Reviewer: Mel from Methuen, MA United States

I'm new to maille, but not to jewelry making, and have gotten used to closing jump rings. This is the first time I used the ring tool, which I got in the byzantine kit. I have to say that it made opening and closing the rings for the kit very quick, and I achieve a better, finer close on the rings using the tool than with two pairs of pliers.

I would reccommend this to anyone new to using the quality rings from Urban Maille. I was able to avoid trashing the sterling and argentium rings I was using. Can't wait to try it out on the copper!

I'm testing our new feature now and this is the tricky part. Please note that if you get a warning during checkout that there are both secure and insecure items on the page, it's only because I'm pulling the contents of this panel from another website. This is the insecure bit, but it doesn't affect the security of our site or the checkout process at all so you can safely disregard the warning.

A strike through like this CP means that the weave/ring size combination doesn't work in copper. Look for a neighboring ring size to be recommended for copper, instead.
