I never thought it would be so difficult to find a simple 5" solid stainless steel "O" ring but I've searched and searched and for some reason I can't find one. All the one's I'm able to find only go up to about 3" diameter.
So if any of you out there know of where I can get one please let me know. Thanks! John

Hi Station,
I needed a largish heavy Ring for stage Ring and Rope. I finally got a set of UDAY'S 6" linking rings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixH11cy53Tw There are many advantages with this size and weight. If you don't find what you are looking for give them a look. Don't practice over hard floors. That's how I broke my old one. LOL If you do find a 5" solid stainless steel ring let us know. -Mary Mowder |

Toro tissue rings are 3.9" but that is the largest I have found with no weld. Great for ring and Rope though.

Why not get a set of NINJA rings and split up the set? Or are they not stainless?

Love the napkin ring Poof-Daddy -Mary |

Thank you Mary! I will check those out. Poof-Daddy, I do have a 3.9" ring that I'm using for the ring & rope but was looking for something a little bigger that would slip onto my wrist & arm a little easier. JNeal, I'm not familiar with NINJA rings but will check them out too.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Actually I just got back to ring and rope for stage work. I have a nice set of 8" linking Rings and I use one of the singles with a member of the audience on stage. If I've already done a linking ring routine and put them away, bringing one out to use in a ring and rope routine looks natural. Has worked well so far for me.

I have never seen or heard, over the last 60 years, of 5" Stainless SteelLinking Rings being made or available in the magic community.
Only steel rings that have been chrome plated. Currently, even the Fun Inc. that sells them under the name Royal Magic, is out of stock on websites I have checked. |

I'm not saying the UDAY 6" rings are solid stainless steel either.
They present as a solid steel chromed ring. Good point Bill. -Mary |

Not sure if your looking for Raw Rings, but here's one that is just 6mm's shy of 5", so that's pretty darn close. Just have it shipped right to your door, or pick up at store.

Skyfire, thank you very much. That is exactly what I'm looking for.

Seems I bought a nice 6" ring from Bob Little at his dealer table years ago. Don't know if he stocks it still

I popped back on this thread because I was at Michaels today looking for some supplies and I ran across some 5" metal rings but they wee thin. Although they were like 5 for $2.99 on the shelf with all the leather stuff. I assume they would make nice "Dream Catchers" as there were 2 other sizes. Anyway, just another option if you are out and about and have a Michaels around.
