Well I've got it now and it is quite unique! Most peeps who see it seem to like it, and the best of it is no one else has even ever seen one, let alone got one.....result.

If you look at the first picture on the website you can see what seems to be a tiny blemish in the join line on the inside of the ring. I thought it was some sort of mark from the assembly operation, and still thought that after I had looked at it for real, but once I put it under my stereo viewer (X10 mag) I saw that the marks (3 of them equaly spaced round the join line) were the tiniest stainless steel mig welds I have ever seen. At about 0.08" long and 0.008" wide they are mind bendingly small. I didn't know you could weld that small.

The only trouble with that is I cannot take the bl00dy thing apart!
