I love it, really cool!  We need more real world trade like this.

You should also put these rings up on forbitcoin.com (pm me if you want me to adjust the price, currently we only accept 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1 bitcoin gigs, but I can manually put the price up for you).

Awesome work!

Thought I'd post a render of the redesigned ring - let me know what you think!

@ innervisi0nn: You want three? Awesome! - let me know what you think of the redesign.

@ darbsllim: Glad you like them   I've been to your site before - really cool.

I don't think I'll be doing more stainless steel rings - the plan was always to do them in sterling silver - these 3 were just to test the waters.  I'm a little worried it turns out not to be cost effective in sterling - shapeways charges $40 for the first cubic centimeter and $20 for each additional cc, and another $10 for polishing- so these could potentially be really pricey (they are quite chunky).  But you early adopters can afford it, right?   

Cheers all.

these are really cool man. Im stoked for you! Great work! How much are they going for? Do you do ring sizes yet?

Thanks!

Thanks heavyb, I appreciate the compliments.  I've not uploaded the new model to shapeways yet (still finishing it off) so I can't comment on the price.  They have a system that should allow for me to do custom sizes, but the default size is going to be 20mm diameter.

looking forward to hearing!

I'm interested in a sterling silver pinky ring, depending on the price.  Let me know when you get that figured out.

@ kgo: Certainly!

Right - I've uploaded the new model and ordered one in sterling to make sure all is good with the design - should take about 2 weeks to arrive.  By then I'll have set up the custom size functionality and have the ring up for sale on shapeways.  If you want to buy in bitcoin you can PM me here and I'll put together a special package - the ring, hand polished in a ring box.  I'll put an actual btc value on it closer to the time.

I'll post in here once I'm ready to start taking orders.

Once again, thanks to you all for your support - it's been very encouraging.

Hi,

I've just posted an update in a new thread as this one seems to have been made obsolete.
