Silicone Wedding Rings


Aug 18, 2022, 8:24 AM

seems Qalo is the most readily available.

Any other options that you fellas may suggest?


cereal and non-sensical answers are appreciated

Those are for fats.


Aug 18, 2022, 8:26 AM

Do what I did.

Gain 30 lbs until your ring no longer fits but everybody who looks at you knows you're married.

I like your funny words magic man


oddly, it's the exact opposite for me


Aug 18, 2022, 8:29 AM

not as fat anymore and mine slides a lot and I don't wanna wear it in and around water in case it takes a bath

I know it's easier for you to find yours in an inflatable hot tub, but i don't have that kind of money

My first wedding ring is in pieces in my wife's jewelry box


Aug 18, 2022, 8:31 AM

I was explaining different types of metal and dropped my ring on the tile floor to demonstrate how strong some metals can be.

Shattered everywhere.

Heard about that for a couple of months

isn't that the purpose of tungsten rings?


Aug 18, 2022, 10:24 AM

I got mine specifically so it would shatter so my finger wouldn't get ripped off.

When we got married, I was doing a lot of conveyor and equipment commissioning. If my ring got caught in a gear, with a gold ring, it'd just smash and rip my finger off. Tungsten is more brittle so it'd shatter, potentially saving my finger.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I've been wearing mine for 14 yrs


Aug 18, 2022, 3:47 PM

and had no idea it is supposed to crack/shatter

Thanks jounge for teaching me the ways

but my Clemson class ring is in two pieces right now. Slammed it down on the bartop several years ago after we scored a touchdown when Clemson was playing FSU on a Thursday night (8 years ago?) and a small chunk broke out of it. Weird as hail, but it happened.

EDIT: I was wearing my ring on my right hand as usual

slammed hand down on the bar flathanded (if that is a word) and a piece broke out of the bottom of the ring

Duct. Tape.

Comes in colors and is easy enough to cut to the right size strip. Just one roll will probably last the duration of your marriage.

Doing metal work on the regular

Bought a pack of el cheapos off the Zon kept them in my toolbox and swap out if needed

I’ve been through 3 metal ones including a time I almost lost my finger.
Have a titanium one now, it will break before it bends. It was $35 at Zales

Was also awesome for the old "open a bottle cap with your wedding ring" party trick.

I have one and I dig it.

Groove life or something. At $25 or whatever it has to be about a 20000000% markup, but it was on the rack at the store and I thought why not.

Saw all the training videos at a previous job. Flight lines and aviation are fanatical about no rings on at work.

except I quite wearing both of them about 10 years ago. At some point they became more of a PIA to deal with when I was working on stuff and keeping up with them, and I just kinda stopped wearing them. I'm not real sure where they right now.

wife said absolutely not. seemed like a no brainer to me...like $40 right? i thought it was a compromise with a rubberband that she also squashed.
