Cam & Follower Ring ...

I just needed to spend time in the shop this weekend, if anything, to get my mind off work. The week was rather rough... but on the good side, I survived the 16th round of layoffs since 2000.

Anyway, this ring's design reminds me of a cam and cam follower ;-)

The body is a flat band of silver.  At the top, two rectangular semi-circular wedges of silver are soldered to the sides of the band.
A cylindrical piece of brass is soldered into a notch on the top of the ring.

All the silver parts came from the scrap box, hammered into shape.
