I made the band of the ring from a thick wire thing that i salvaged from one of the computer components. I love the copper color, and i love the way that the conductive material is visible, but not obvious. I glued in a compass that i got from a broken flashlight, then wrapped a pink wire around it. The pink wire is from the power supply of a friend's old desktop. I can't believe how much wire there is in a power supply.
The idea of the ring is to destress. Stress usually comes about when you don't know what to do from the dozens of requirements, which is one of the problems of CT students. By looking at the compass, it amuses the student and reminds the student that they just need to find the right direction and leave stress behind.
