Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous.
If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.

That spreader block looks very art deco. Some very original thinking there Evert.
