    Hi Carolyn, are you reshanking rings? If so, all you need do is
    determine if the size of the ring now is what you want to end up
    with. If so, cut out the desired amount of the old shank,gently tap
    this piece out flat on your bench top or a lead block to prevent
    changing the length of it and then measure. This is how much length
    you need for any replacement.
