Ouch! Those are some thin rings. I got after one slightly thinner last week, its backed with rawhide now!

Looks like the first good ring is about a1/3rd of the way down, just under that burn mark. Is that the one you are shooting for. Thats a lot of shaving, good luck.

Man...that is a lot of shaving right there, it will be worth it though! Looking forward to following this project. Best of luck to you.
