Encoder Rings

I found out about these super cool rings through that one floor up I've told you about.

I followed the LINK to go to the creator's website. So the design of these rings are basically made up of binary code and if you were to buy one you could have a customized ring with a secret binary message (up to 64 characters).

I thought that it was an awesome idea. Maybe a bit nerdy, I don't care. So I followed up on it and emailed the contact email on the site to say that if they were available to purchase, I would be interested.

This is the email I was sent back from Jonathan Ben-Tovim:

Development for the Encoder Ring is complete, and we are now ready to take orders. The production version will be Rapid-Manufactured in the United Kingdom using a high quality SLA resin with an extremely high accuracy of finish. The Encoder Ring will be as strong and clear as possible, with a lovely quality of finish.

1 custom made ring with your own 64 character message encoded on the surface is £130 + £10 postage and handling (225 + 17 US dollars)

If You would like to make an order, please let me know and I can provide you with details of how to do so.

Kind regards

Jonathan Ben-Tovim



Oh, those are expensive... And if I were rich, that would be on my list of things recently purchased. Rather than a similar list it's currently on: things I'd dream of one day buying if I had money. That would be along with a Macbook and a large framed photo called Solitude by David Lorenz Winston.



It caught my eye one evening at a friend's house and I fell in love with it!

If happen to have the kind of money that's needed to buy those rings, then go ahead, email him and let him know that you're interested. But if you do, make sure I get the chance to see it!
