--TOOLS + MATERIALS--
Dichrolam is a Dichroic film material which produces a crazy array of colours. It's hard to capture how beautiful these materials look on camera: The sheets look across between dichroic glass and anodised titanium! Dichrolam comes in a variety of patterns that are made to mimic wood figures and burls.

This ring took me about 2 hours with a few special tools, but this could be made entirely without power tools. I want to show you that you can make valuable wooden rings without investing an arm and a leg for tools, so I hope this tutorial helps.
