About
You’ll make an elegant spinner ring with four separate components made of silver — a wide base band and one inside patterned band that spins between two stationary outer bands.
Day 1: Cut, solder, and form the four component bands, with a focus on the fit and finish for each band.
Day 2: Troubleshoot any problems with the individual bands, and assemble them into the finished spinner ring.
