    Hello Billy S. There are rulers about 6 inches long with lengths for
    ring sizes on the back BUT, you will have to add 3X the thickness of
    the metal to that length.  Check Rio's catalog pp.308, item
    #166-022/3. Karet 46 (Kenneth Singh) likely also stocks the little
    rulers. 

    Oppi's "Metal Techniques has a chart in the back (page 461), but I'm
    surprised to note the little formula is not included. 

    If you order a little ruler, get a set of ring sizers at the same
    time for the next person ordering a ring.

    Today things are melting off.
