A few weeks ago a large group order was organised to buy some sling rings from www.slingrings.com Here's a few ideas of what you can do with your rings.
If you're still looking for rings they can be found inexpensively at slingrings.ca or slingrings.com
Sling
rings on their own (ie not as a built-in part of a sling) can be used
for many fun things besides than the standard no-sew ring sling. Rings
can be used to make up for a lack of fabric length, create support,
redistribute weight, and make adjustments to standard carries. Front,
back, and hip carries can all be amended to use rings in lieu of knots,
crosses, or finishes. Ring finishes can add adjustability to a standard
finish when a bit of variability may be required. Almost any carry can
be modified in a way where rings can be used - this list is a nice
jumping-off point!
