The square shape ring




This is my current design that I am working on. Its a ring is inspired by geometric shapes, I was trying to combine two elements the flat plate, wire and use the small wire to assemble all the components together to give the piece that mechanical engineering look. The other thing is that I want is that all the shapes from the center must be able to move along the two thick wires that also acts as sides bands that holds the ring together. The mechanical part of this ring is where the jump rings links together the square shapes at the center together and then also holds together the sides bands which are made out of thick wires. The small jump rings must be able to move along the sides bands, which makes the square shapes move if you move it using your fingers.

According to my working drawings it looks like is going to work, but I am going to draw it on rhino{CAD} to test if its going to work. The drawing on rhino{CAD} is going to bring it much closer to real piece, is going to able to check what measurements must I use. I need to do just one actual prototype before I make the final piece. The reason is that I am going to make this piece by hand and, I am also going make it out of platinum.
