Has anyone tried inlaying silver chain for ring work? It seems like the links could provide a nice invisible seam. What I mean of course is cutting a channel as with any inlay at the correct depth for the chain and then gluing in the chain as you lay it in. It looks like a nice pattered ring effect can be achieved without the fuss of trying to do it with a finger ring which are hard to find in a small enough size.
I probably should do a seperate post for this, but on another note, has anyone here ever used any of that patterned sterling sheet that is available? There are some great traditional guilloche and floral designs at Metaliferous in sheet. Of course if we are talking rings, there you have a seaming issue, but as a flat botomed pocket inlay I bet it would look nice...
