It permanently presses your band on to your barrel.

Billy Hays developed a tool a few years ago that crimps the edges of the band onto the barrel as the barrel rotates on the lathe. There's a few folks that have some of the original tools, but Billy quit having them made because it was so expensive to make. I bought the rights to make the tool a couple of years ago, and am slowly trying to get the tool back into a production state at a much better price point. It's been a slow process as I just have too many irons in the fire right now. The prints are being updated now, and I'm still planning on getting a product back on the market.

Sup Tobin!! I am sure if you can get some dimensions on your bands we can build a tool to do what you are needing.. May not be like a ringer tool but I have an idea on it..
