Star Trek 2009 Starfleet Academy Class Rings

[Goodwolf]

So I take it this was before the adoption of the always annoying "Stardate" system?

Or did they just chuck that in the bin?

 

[darthinvictus]

these rings will all be custom sized so the year will be personal preferance

they always had both... the stardate replaces days and months.... in TNGs all good things for example, it was stardate 47988.1 of the year 2370.

I don't know if this is why, but wouldn't years only be indicative of Earth? Every planet in the universe would have a different time calculating scenario, and their rotation around their sun would create different lengths of years. So a stardate could be a commonly agreed upon measurement used by Federation planets.

Just a thought.

I love these rings btw!

 

[UFO]

yea, i think its kinda like GMT for time.

 

[sctcarts]

If someone tackles it, put me on the interest list!

The original looks flat on top. Is it an illusion, or is yours rounded on top?

 

[darthinvictus]

illusion
cant say why for sure
i believe it is cuz i painted it gold
the sides look weird where it joins the top as well

 

[Lost in Trek]

These look pretty cool. Keep the pics coming.

Years ago, when Paramount took ownership of Kings Dominion in Virginia they had a Trek shop at the park that sold Starfleet class rings. I'll have to see if I can find the one I bought. Anyone else get one of those?

 

[micdavis]

I have a Starfleet class ring. Don't remember who made but I got one.

 

[darthinvictus]

2 new views in silver
the top is mathematically perfect despite the way it looks
milling the master now
will have pics of the wax up tonight after i get back from a party

 

[Unfated]

Do we have a price on these yet?

 

[darthinvictus]

the kings dominion or mine?
I will have to weigh the wax do some math
and calculate various metal weights
but roughly
70.00 for bronze looks like gold
or 90.00 for silver wearable

 

[Chronos]

Very cool, Darth!

 

[darthinvictus]

thankee sai

 

[darthinvictus]

here is the wax
pretty raw need to ream it clean it invest it cast it
should have a metal ring to show by midweek
would you guys rather see it in silver or goldtone?

 

[starbuc]

I'd rather see it is silver myself, but that is just me.
It looks pretty good in wax.
I am really looking forward to seeing one in metal.
Excellent work!

[Unfated]

I'm thinking silver.
