Hmmm...?
So, do you get any kickback (monetarily) if I buy one simply because of your blog post? :) The design looks cool, and people often spin their rings on their fingers (as I do), and the fact that it's machined perfectly is intriguing. For $25, I wouldn't mind buying one, and probably will.
I don't get kickbacks :) but
I don't get kickbacks :) but I do like to know how you like the ring after you bought it.
Each ring have a id, I asked the company, they told me you can send them a email request what ID you want.
here are some ids I would be interested in
1(unit)
2(oddest prime)
3(first odd prime)
4(2*2 = 2^2)
5(twin prime with both 3 and 7)
6(1st perfect number)
7(considered lucky...and 7up... and it's a happy number, only dimension other than 3 where vector cross product can be defined)
8(E8, 2^3, first prime to the 2nd prime power...)
9(the result of the first exponential factorial doesn't equal to itself.)
28(perfect number+ largest order of sociable numbers)
69(innuendo, btw... in case you don't know...and 9 is the binary complement of 6, now that's a math sexual innuendo...)
300(the movie)
691(1st irregular prime)
163
42
912(my birthday, to bad if you are born with 4 digit representation of your birthday...)
667(the smallest integer larger than the number of the beast... owned, there are infinite many more)
999(0.999.....anyone who says 0.999999 does not equal to 1 using the number representing system we are having now... do some research)
Whoops... I need to
Whoops... I need to remember to use your "Reply" link in here. Sorry! :)
np. most people don't use
np. most people don't use it, I just do to keep things organized
Or...
If you believe the chainmail-esque rumor about the number "Barney". 666 :)
I think I'll just let my ID be automatically assigned. Any number I would have chosen would be taken by now (12 or 21).
k xD good luck on that.

good luck on that.
Well, I got the ring. It's
Well, I got the ring. It's number 101. Unfortunately, it's not the correct size I ordered (or if it is, their sizing is off, I have small fingers as it is and ordered a size 7 ring, this is more like a 6, it fits on my pinky luckily). I'll just buy one of the titanium rings I was going to buy before anyway to put on the finger I had intended... Otherwise, it's kinda fun to spin, and although it is somewhat a cheap construction, it's pretty much what I expected for $20 that had moving parts. I'm satisfied with the ring itself, just wish I got the right size.
they messed up...that
they messed up...that sucks
How does it spin? automatically?
LoL!
What?! Heck no! There's no gyroscopic motion. :) It's only $20 and the size of a ring! You spin it yourself. As stupid as that sounds though, spinning a ring that is a simple band is a rather common thing for people to do, so it's not all that weird or out of the question for a manual maneuver. In fact, I can't stop spinning the damned thing now that it's loosened up a little bit. It chimes a little as I type (due to the small crevice between the two parts) and reminds me it's there, making me want to spin it. AGH! :D There it goes again.....
...ok, done spinning.
make me want one
make sure you are spinning the right direction, because the wrong direction have opposite effect.
