The blank ring should not pinch the skin and create inconvenience when removing or putting on. The ends of the threads should be twisted and cut off. Then measure the length of the thread with a ruler and divide the resulting value by 15, 7.
To determine the circumference, divide the initial length of the thread by 5. Now a close numerical value can be found in the tables "AliExpress". Russian ring sizes correspond to the diameter of the circle.
