Hi,

Here are 45, 90 and 72 degree indexed typical box veneer style rings that I build for my Esoteric cues.

I love that box ringwork. Thanks for posting.

Hi Kevin,

They are a pain in ass to build and machine considering the opposing outer rings on the billet have to hold the same dimensional thickness when cutting off but they are worth the trouble IMO.

Do you cut them off the billet with a parting tool?

Hi Zirroe,

KJs Carbide .025 slitting saw works the best for me. Because the rings are so close to each other On either side they have to be perfect in matching thickness size or your eye can pick it up stat. I wasted a lot of billet material figuring out my procedure for that little detail which is vital to the look and illusion these ring are designed to create. Just a few thousand difference and it looks like shXX. A very delicate procedure to get right or you lose the farm.
