Ring Resizer

Ring Resizer

Ring Resizer turns one ring into a run of sizes: select the design, tell it which finger sizes you need, and it generates a copy for each — preserving the setting areas instead of blindly scaling everything.

Selection and finger size

The selection panel prompts you to pick the entire ring design. Below it, the Finger Size panel sets the size of the ring you are starting from — the size the copies will be developed from.

Mode decides how the ring adapts to each new size:

  • Uniform — the whole design is resized together.
  • Variable — a gumball appears in the viewport and you choose the area that must not change; the rest of the ring adapts to the new finger size. This is what keeps stones and settings true to size while the band grows or shrinks. The Angle parameter adjusts the extent of the protected portion.

The output can be organized on layers, stacked sequentially, or exported directly as STL files to a folder, ready for printing. The Alignment option centers the output in the front view or aligns it on the plane.

Target sizes

The Target Ring Size panel lists the available sizes; check the ones you want to generate. When the command is accepted, the selection is remembered for future runs on other models — the same size run, one click away.

Ref and sprue

The Ref tab can engrave a tag inside each ring — a name or reference plus its size — so the pieces can be told apart after printing.

The last tab optionally adds a sprue at the bottom of each ring, with full control of its parameters, including how deep it intersects the shank.
