Any US based folks that could make forged hammered O rings (brass, titanium, stainless) like this?
Looking for a US based metal worker who might be able to make something like this. This one is solid brass and 1/4" thick, 4.2" internal diameter (ID), but standard sizes for these are all 1/4" thickness in 2.5" ID (size M), 3" ID (size L) and 4.2" ID (size XL).
They're for keeping passes of fabric in place while carrying weight in the fabric, most commonly 5-50lbs, but sometimes more, so they need to be pretty strong. I've read that these might be super simple to make for the person who knows how, so hoping someone goes, "I could totally do that!" Thoughts?
