Remember, the Ringmaster is not a Ring Stretcher. It distributes
gold evenly around the shank, strengthens rings against bending,
strengthens solder joints against breaking, makes rings perfectly
round and much more. Simply put, it improves the quality of your
ring work!

View our video below to see the Star Ringmaster in action!
The Ringmaster works directly off your mandrel, your
measuring stick for accuracy in bringing rings to exact size. Select the die that allows the ring to fit well within
the confines of the die. Place die into die holder and slide mandrel
through hole in yoke, where label is attached. Next, place ring
on mandrel and continue sliding mandrel through second hole of
yoke. Turn the mandrel and ring high on the shoulder of the ring
and pull or push the mandrel clockwise. Reverse to the other side
of shank and repeat. Now draw gold to center of shank by turning
ring to one side then to the other until desired size is attained.
Remember now, this is a forging action that is taking place all in a matter of a minute or two. Ringmaster eliminates
inside and outside filing! Just parallel the sides with the
Brite Rite Wheel and polish.
The Ringmaster benefits the jeweler by distributing gold evenly
around the shank. It strengthens rings against bending,
and it strengthens the solder joints against breaking.
It makes rings perfectly round!
Select the die that allows the ring to fit well within the confines
of the die. Slide mandrel through hole in yoke, where label is
attached, then on through the ring to the hole in the opposite
side. Turn mandrel and ring high on the shoulder of the ring and
pull or push the mandrel clockwise...reverse to other side of
the shank and repeat. Now draw gold to center of shank by turning
the ring to one side then the other until the desired size is
attained.
Sizing larger beyond the limit of two (2) sizes
Ringmaster saves you precious gold when cutting and piecing
beyond the two (2) size limit. Just solder in half the gold needed
and draw to size in the appropriate die. Work right on the piece
of gold soldered into the shank, then lightly from shoulder to
shoulder to the exact size.
Ringmaster gives you a little plus of gold when cutting rings
to a smaller size. Remove half a size more then measured, solder
joint, then use the Ringmaster to bring the ring to size.
Putting on new shanks and half shanks
Ringmaster excels in this operation. Use at least two (2) sizes
less gold then required and use Ringmaster to draw the gold from
shoulder to shoulder to a perfect shank configuration.
Bring rough cast mountings to size
Ringmaster makes use of the spru on the shank of the cast mounting
when a larger size is required; simply draw the spru into the
shank of the ring to attain those extra sizes.
Ringmaster eliminates inside and outside filling
In all sizing operations, Ringmaster eliminates inside and outside
filling; just parallel the sides and polish
