    A size 7 ring will still be a size 7 ring whether it's round or not.
    If a ring goes to a size 7 on a mandrel, but there are gaps between
    the ring and the mandrel, then it is larger than a 7. A rubber ring
    mandrel helps, or just enough experience to "eye-ball" the gaps to
    determine the size.
