I know how to do 4 in 1, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to graduate it and what rings sizes and gauges to use. Call me an airhead.

That's a tricky thing, almost requiring your own vast mandrel array (and you're by no means an airhead for being stumped on this )... but I found someone here who listed the sizes she used. If you happen to work out good sizes in imperial units, I'd certainly be interested. |

Looking at the piece I linked to, it looks like something like this:
Code: |
1 3 5 7 9 11
) ) ) ) ) )
( ( ( ( (
) ) ) ) ) )
( ( ( ( (
2 4 6 8 10
|
with 1 being the smallest (20g 2.5mm). My guess is that rows 10 and 11 are the largest (16g 4.5mm). Between those it's a matter of going down the list, one ring size per row.
It should be noted that I've never done anything like this, and am just making an educated guess  |
