	Linking Rings
		I had to stop performing with the standard linking rings because all of the kids who saw me perform also saw the exposure of the secret to the linking rings.
		The reason for the hollow rings is to allow a beautiful tone when two rings are struck together, which is the standard for judging the quality of Linking Rings.
		The rings are a bit heavier as they're solid 12" rings, and at times I had to work on keeping one ring completely horizontal in one hand for a couple moves, but it was fine.

	Chinese linking rings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Chinese Linking Rings is considered to be a true classic of magic.
		In 1988, Japanese close-up and expert magician Masahiro Yanagida performed his miniature linking rings routine, the Ninja Rings, using four rings that were four and a half inches (or 11.43 cm) in diameter.
		These rings have in fact an opening which can be closed by a simple "locking" mechanism that is almost invisible at a distance of one or two feet.

	Kanji By Starlight
		The most common routine uses eight rings and is filled with lots of linking and unlinking.
		With the exception of the linking rings, the use of stale and minor off-the-shelf tricks (cups and balls, rice bowls, a really hokey selection-forcing plastic bag) does not do justice to the history being told.
		The process of melding the magic and stories together has resulted mostly in warping the stories in non-sensical ways, causing David to inject falsely ringing elements in an attempt to bring logic to what he's doing, and worse, to tell stories that sound like they were made up for some trivial piece of magic.
