How the heck do you make those?

Those are really nice... Post title and user name are in oxymoron status, but they are great!

Those are sweet. I have very bad luck with bracelets.

Was a oven involved?

I really like the gray with the black segments. Very cool.

How the heck do you make those?

Cut a ring from a sheet of Corian and start filing/sanding.

These where turned on the lathe.

I will try to get some pics up of the process.

Very nice...very attractive..!

Do you make them all the same size, ie, inside diameter seems most important..??
And/or is there one size that are asked for more than others..??

I had read somewhere on the Internets what the most common ID for a woman's bangle bracelet was.

Right now that is the only size I am making.

I am in the middle of documenting how I do it. Will post shortly.

If you have the larger corian tiles (3x3 or 4x4) or sheets, you can turn off a bracelet and use the 'core' for a matching pendant. Sell as a set.

Instructions on a similar approach but the corian will avoid the end grain issues with wood
