No matter how many bands your ring has, if you put it together correctly,
it will go together easily. Do not force your ring back together. You could bend it, particularly if it is sterling silver, which is very soft.

Allow yourself some time; make a cup of tea or grab a beer or a glass of wine, and sit with your ring and the instructions until you "have it down," and your ring is back together. If you begin to stress, please take a break. This can be easy!

For the four, six, or eight band puzzle rings, you will find animated and written instructions on their respective pages, as well as a link to our puzzle ring instruction video for the given ring.

For best results , open the animated and written instructions in one browser window, and open the video instructions in another. Go from one to the next, utilizing all three learning tools.  When you get stuck with one,  move on to the next..

On the Chain Puzzle Ring Instructions page is a short video which works equally well for a three, five, or seven band chain puzzle ring.

The link to the Eastbourne Puzzle Ring Video takes you directly to Windows Media Player, which will play the instruction video for you.

Have fun and good luck! If you really can't get it, you can return your ring to Norm for the cost of the shipping back and forth, and he'll put it together for you. If you wish, he can also fashion a clip to hold the ring together at the back.
