Lay the card down sideways, the long way, like the drawing below. Not upright.
Resize the shape until the top and bottom edges match your card. Ignore the right side.
Adjust the wheel until this line measures 50 mm on your ruler.
Any card works: they are all exactly the same height.
Place the ring on the disc and resize until the disc exactly fills the hole.
Leave a very fine line of background showing all the way round. That sliver is the room the ring needs to turn on your finger: close it completely and the ring will be too tight.
Tap a size to see its exact diameter.
Wrap paper round the base of your finger and mark where it overlaps. Lay the strip along the ruler with its end on the 0, then move the line to your mark.
Measure at the end of the day, hands at normal temperature. If you have a ring that already fits, the ring method above is more reliable than paper.
More accurate: you read the size straight off the paper.
An estimate, not a jeweller's measurement. Between two sizes, take the larger.
| Size | Diameter | Circumference |

Almost always this means the ring was measured on the outside. What counts is the inner hole: a size 20 ring is 19.10 mm across on the inside but around 21 mm on the outside, and that gap is two full sizes. This is why the circle is solid, the ring has to cover it completely.
Every card in the world is made to the ISO 7810 ID-1 standard: 85.60 × 53.98 mm, no exceptions. By matching the shape to your card, this page learns how many pixels make a millimetre on your particular screen, and from there it can draw at true size.
The ring sizer measures against your screen, so it needs a phone you can lay a card and a ring flat on. Scan this code with your camera.

Cut along the dashed line.
How to use it
1. Cut out the strip along the dashed line.
2. Wrap it around the base of the finger you will wear the ring on, printed side facing out. Snug, but loose enough to slide over the knuckle.
3. Hold the END marked START flat against your finger, so the 0 line is exactly where the loop begins.
4. With a pen, draw a line on the strip at the exact point where the loose end crosses over the START end. That pen mark is your measurement.
5. Unwrap the strip and read the number your pen line landed on. The bold number is your CAS DEIÀ size; the small number is the circumference in millimetres.
6. If your mark falls between two sizes, take the larger one. A ring that is too tight will not pass the knuckle.
Measure at the end of the day, hands at normal temperature. If you have a ring that already fits, the ring method above is more reliable than paper. If you can, measure three times and use the largest reading.
