Is it possible to find a simple app that creates a ring with complex designs? I am trying to create a dna ring that is not available to buy, and I am not a 3D artist, and none of the ring apps on this site work because they are only for flat rings with writing or pre-made flower designs. I'd appreciate any help!

Thanks for replying, I've attached 3 pictures of rings that I love, I'd like to do some sort of combination of the three. It seems that the designs are strong enough to make and sell for these rings, I'd like a sterling silver one. I bet they'd sell like hotcakes, since all of the ones available now are too bulky and not simplistic like the necklace...let me know!
P.S., I like ring2.jpg if it were a little thinner and there were more helix turns, but it is too expensive for me, it's $280.00, which is why I wanted to design one myself and make it for a lot less.

Fabulous! And yes, US size 6 is my size. I actually had one hand crafted from sterling silver, and I felt so bad that I had to return it, but it was very bulky and chunky and not feminine at all. Plus I think hand crafting is prone to errors, the ring was bumpy and the helixes were not uniform, it kind of looked like a kid made it. So it would be great to have one 3D printed so it could be thin and elegant. You could even put a stone in the middle for a wedding ring or something to sell to people.

OMG that is EXACTLY what I am looking for! Especially the smooth edges and uniformity, thank you SO MUCH! How can I reimburse you/download the 3D file/get this actually made on Shapeways? I'm such a noob.
