Hello, 

Always glad to meet a fellow Armorer. My name is Kenneth McKenzie and I have a
site being developed for McKenzie Armory. www.bujutsu.com/armory. If your
looking for links, I can give you quite a bit of data in that I have rooted out
every source I can find on the net, and elsewhere, and done a coparative price
study. Also, I have ordered sampleas from several of these and can tell you if
you would even want their rings. Of course the cheapest rings are if you make
them yourself. As the old saying goes give a man a fish ... I can show you a
simple rig and some sources for wire other than galvanized. At any rate, if you
are interested in the data let me know. Kevin_McKeaigg@SABRE.com.

I don't know where to buy them.  In the olden days we made them out of 
wire wrapped around a dowel.  Then we clipped them off the dowel and 
knitted them together with a pair of pliers.
