I designed our wedding rings and had them 3D printed by Shapeways (they use a lost wax casting process for precious metal objects). It's pretty cool having a one-of-a-kind piece, plus knowing that if anything ever does happen to the ring, it can be easily replaced.
- jeffmcjunkin 8y agoSame. I was inspired by https://christian.gen.co/ring https://christian.gen.co/ring, and in fact worked with the same designer. I got to iterate over four or five designs and ended with a very nice design, and choose the stones separately. (I didn't go with cubic zirconia, but that's a whole 'nother topic)
