    'Semi-detached.' Heh. A pit that ring broke, might have made a nice bracelet if it had been strong enough. Thanks for another amusing and intructive video.

    It's always nice to see an old or broken piece get a new life. Seven inches seems a little tall for pencils. Most of my pencils are short...lol. In the U.S. we call them pencil cups or pencil holders. Cup implies something short. Maybe this should be a spillikin pot!

    Why not do a small scoring cut on the inside , then part off from the outside?
