Well it still needs work but at least this is just a scrap silver ring I had. Here's what I came up with from the monogram I was looking for. I changed the J to a T so I would have a monogram of my Native name of Leroy Two Hawks. Trying to make small lines and still keep the design after it's polished is not easy.:beat up:

Looks nice Kevin, perhaps the monogram could have been a bit bigger as there is enough space between the border and the monogram, it could have been a bit easyer.

Looks good, Kevin. Your cutting shows good graver control. The letter on the right side sort of looks like a P, though.

I hope you're not polishing after you've done the engraving. That should always be done prior to engraving. If not, you run the risk of spoiling the character and detail of your cuts. / ~Sam
