Been working on some Wedding Goblets to keep on hand as needed. These are made from some Magnolia wood that my wife's cousin husband cut down. Some of the best looking Magnolia I have seen. Inside the cup is sealed with bees wax while on the outside of the goblet I used Mahoneys Walnut Oil. The rings are interlocking and I laser engrave the bride and grooms name, date of wedding and the inscription "With this ring, I thee wed" on the goblet. These make great wedding gifts.

Thanks for all the comments, I appreciate them. The secret to the interlocking rings is, one ring has to be broken, interlocked and glued back together. Physically snap the ring to break it, do not cut it. If the ring is snapped, when glued back together, the joint is generally not noticeable. It takes practice to get good at doing the rings and a third hand would make it easier sometimes, but it is a nice added feature.

Huh, breaking it wouldn't have been my first guess but that makes perfect sense. What tool do you use for making the captive rings?
