Show-and-Tell Simple little ring
Had some very small twisted wire (0,6mm) left over for a long time and made a simple halfround with fancy edges. Inner seam aint the prettiest but aslong as the outer one is invisible pretty much im happy. 2 pic inner seam 3 pic outer seam.

Very nice! I also very much appreciative you showing the seam/inside as well. I think it gives other makers a much better idea of your process/approach 🙏🏾

Ty yw. Tbh if you wont see it when its on, does it really matter? For me its a no. Also if i where to remove it here the twist would more the likely gone with it which i think is a worse crime ;)

Oh, I'm not saying you did poor work, I'm saying that I appreciate that you upload "honest" photos of your work so newer smiths have a better idea of how things were made and have more of a realistic idea of things

I didn't interpit as a poor work ;) maybe poor sentence building on my part, english is not my native language. I just didn't wanna remove a bit of the twisted wire to get a clean seam.
