These things with rings of things......

Holy Cow!! That’s neat. I think??? Strings of things and rings of things???? Nah, it is very well done.

Hey Keith
I still wondering how you did the inlay on the circles? Did you use a compass with a blade and router out the middle? If this is something do would rather not disclose that’s fine. I really enjoyed the rings and things project.

Really excellent use of inlays. Your writeup is interesting too; somewhere between a great philosopher and Dr. Seuss.

Keith: I think I’d like a darker shadow on the top ring side where it crossed the brown one. To me it looks like it should be a bit darker than the sides of the top ring.

But very nice.

..but is your ring Abelian? Would your ring of things on strings be the same as a string of things on a ring?

Food for thought.

Geeky math humor, sorry.

Nicely done. I couldn’t do it. Be proud!

I like it. Keep going, I think You’re onto something there. Beautiful.

Keith: I went to bed last night thinking about these rings. I love the transparency effect of the small solid circle.
