I like the comments where guys are saying that for $160 a piece they should go on a search for old pool balls. Why? You could make them out of brand new Aramith Tournament balls and still make a ton of money. You'd make your money back on one ball and the other 14 are pure profit. :grin-square:

Not sure how long the process takes so I won't comment on the price... The girlfriend has wanted to start making these for about 2 years,,, I bought a 10ball ring made from a full size ball at a craft fair... I think I paid about $80 for it but it was not from the original crafter so I would say that was less than it had sold originally.....

I dont know the process either but........

Seems to be pretty steep for a piece of a pool ball..

These things are a complete rip.

How do you make a ring from a genuine, 2-1/4" billiard ball?

Must have pretty big hands!

I had one made up from an 8 Ball, but had to sell it because it was way too small !!!

I remember a thread on these rings a few years back. The consensus was they are pretty cool but WAY overpriced.
