Here's a piece where 3D-printing saved a lot of time and hand fabrication. The customer wanted a large ballerina ring but she wanted the cluster to be removable so she could wear it as a pendant. The bail is on a hinge and acts as a locking mechanism on the ring. When you want to wear it as a pendant, unhook the bail underneath and the cluster slides off. The pics were mid-polish so there's still a few rough spots. I'm pretty bad about taking pictures of my finished pieces.
