Hey Jeff,

No I didn't look in the wrong place, you didn't click the rest of the way in and find this little sentance
The pre-flattened and punched rings are currently unavailable.
. The Ring Lord hasn't gotten their tooling finished to be able to produce these, and the rings they show are the wrong configuration. They show a ring that they have only flattened the overlap, not the entire ring.

Hi Jeffery,

you anneal the rings before you flatten them. When you flatten them they get work hardened so you don't need to harden them any further or they will get brittle, not too mention that a lot of your older mail was made from iron and not steel.

all the best.

Hey Jeff,

no problem.

:)


for anyone still looking for rings and rivets, Historic Enterprieses apparently sells them by the pound. http://www.historicenterprises.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=381&c=25

laters.
