"My favorite thing is when customers send in their own material to use," says Bosworth, who has made custom rings incorporating arcade tokens, vinyl records, a saxophone and even dirt from the baseball field of a World Series out of his shop in Morrison, Honest Hands Ring Co."It's an awesome way for people to put sentimental meaning into their rings."
The request was on brand for Mesick, a planning manager in the aerospace industry for Lockheed Martin. The mylar foil he purchased had never actually been on the surface of the Moon, but it had been part of the Command Module Columbia, which orbited the Moon above while Armstrong made his famous giant leap on the surface below.
"That specific Saturn V design I pulled from the technical documents of NASA, which are public domain now. I scanned it and retouched it, then I slapped that image on a ring. So not only is it a cool design, it's actually from the blueprints of the Saturn V," he explains.
