Ring Mandrel — Tapered 9" Wooden Sizer Stick for Forming & Shaping Rings

The forming stick you reach for when a shank needs rounding, truing or easing up a size. Worked over wood rather than steel, gold and silver keep their surface — nothing to polish out afterwards — which suits repair work as much as forming new rings. The 9" length gives room for wide bands and larger men's sizes. If you're weighing wood against marked steel, our guide to choosing a ring mandrel covers the differences.

The taper runs smooth and continuous along the full working length, and the surface is finished so rings glide on and off without catching. One note: the surface is unmarked, so treat this as a shaping tool rather than a sizing gauge.

• Extended 9-inch length provides ample working surface for wide-band and large-sized rings.
• Solid wood construction prevents scratching or marking the surface of gold, silver, and other soft metals.
• A continuous, smooth taper is ideal for forming, rounding, and enlarging ring shanks.
• Features a smooth, finished surface to ensure rings glide on and off without catching.
• Unmarked surface is designed purely for shaping and forming, not for measuring ring size.
