METAL RING GUARD - ENGAGMENT RING IDEAS.
Twelve 14K white gold filled small ring size adjusters. Ring not included.
Ring Size Adjuster Installation Instructions
1) Place the ring size adjuster next to your ring. The ring size adjuster is shaped so that the outer edges turn upward to match the existing contour of the ring.
2) Put the ring size adjuster inside the ring, setting the arms over the bottom of the ring band. Gently push down on the ring size adjuster so that it takes the same shape as the ring.
3) Tighten the ring size adjuster to the ring. You can do this with a regular pair of smooth jaw chain nose pliers or needle nose pliers. Smooth jaws are best as they won't leave nicks in the ring size adjuster as you install it.
4) Use the pliers to clamp down on one of the arms of the ring size adjuster once it's wrapped around the ring. This will tighten the ring size adjuster so that it won't slip.
5) Repeat the process for the other side of the ring size adjuster.
6) Adjust the size of the ring by pushing up or down in the middle of the ring size adjuster to find the fit that is most comfortable for you.
SMALL ring size adjusters usually fit children's rings & thin banded women's wedding or engagement rings.
HINT: Use smooth-jaw pliers to avoid nicking ring or ring size adjusters.
Ever wonder why white gold isn't as silvery as silver? We sure did.
White gold is not perfectly white. In some light white gold looks like silver or nickel, but may look slightly yellow in incandescent light. The color of gold is determined by the distribution of colors in the light that is reflected from its surface.
14-karat white gold is an alloy of gold, copper, nickel & zinc. The nickel & zinc reduce the red & yellow reflected by copper & gold, but is not perfect. Some reds & yellows are still seen.

Object Desciption Control car or gondola from K-47, on of the third series of K-class airships constructed by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company during World War II. The airship control car on display is that of K-47, which was delivered to the U.S. Navy at Naval Air Station (NAS) Moffett Field, California, on 19 May 1943. It was rescued from a junkyard near Lakehurst, New Jersey in 1988 and restored to its present condition by museum volunteers before being placed on display in January 1992.
Place of Origin Akron, Ohio
Notes The Navy ordered its first airship in 1915, and though it logged only two flights at Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola before being retired, the sea service remained committed to operating lighter-than-air aircraft. These included a myriad of blimps and balloons, which maintained their shape much the same as an automobile tire by the internal pressure of helium gas exerted on the envelope, and dirigibles, which featured a structure of metal ribs and rings.
The most widely used blimps produced for the Navy were those of the K-Class. Though the first, the K-1, was delivered to the Navy in August 1931, not until 1938 did the follow-on design that formed the basis for the wartime K-ships make her maiden flight. At the time, the K-2 was the largest non-rigid airship in the Navy's inventory. All told, some 135 K-class airships were manufactured; the largest production run of any airship in the history of the U.S. Navy, and at peak production Goodyear manufactured eleven per month.
Operating from bases on both coasts of the United States and in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, K-ships performed valuable service in the protection of convoys during World War II, their extended range enabling them to loiter above merchant ships longer than conventional aircraft and their ASG surface radar, Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD) gear, and sonobuoys providing search capability against German U-boats. They also served as air-sea rescue platforms. All told, the five wartime airship wings, which predominantly operated K-ships, logged 536,915 flight hours. In addition, one K-ship (K-74) was lost to enemy fire after engaging in a gun battle with the U-134 off the east coast of Florida. Modified and rebuilt, K-ships continued to serve in the postwar years under the designations ZP2K/ZSG-2 and ZP3K/ZSG-3, with some equipped to operate from escort carriers.
During a normal mission, the cruising altitude over water was 500 ft. with a maximum altitude of 6,500 ft. Flights could last up to twenty-four hours, mostly consisting of the monotonous scanning of water as far as the eye could see. The control car featured a galley and the assigned rigger was usually the cook unless another crewman had more culinary talent.
