How can you remove an extremely tight-fitting ring from your finger after 30 years without damaging either the ring or your finger?

Probably the cheapest, most effective method would be to wash your hands in running water just as cold as you can possibly stand. Make sure to use plenty of soap, in particular on the ring finger. As your fingers get colder, they will begin to constrict. Likewise, by working the soap (liquid, non-foaming would be best) on and around your ring, you'll be lubricating the ring. At this point, with minimal effort, you should be able to pull the ring past your knuckle, and it should be a fairly simple process from that point.
Another method is to slide a string under the ring. Then wrap it as tightly as you can around the finger headed toward the end and over the knuckle. By pulling the string under the finger it will slowly move the ring up the finger and over the knuckle. Be careful!
You may want to consider going to a jeweler's and having them cut it off as a safer way of removal.

∙ 12y agoTry dishwashing liquid and cold water. The cold water will shrink the skin and the fluid should help it slide off. If you can't get it off after that, any jeweler can cut if off for you - they can cut it off and then solder it back together and you won't be able to see it. Reputable jewelers should do it for free.

why do you think archaeologists do a survey of the area before they start excavating?
Digging randomly would have a high chance of either turning up nothing, or destroying any artifacts that may have been there. Before excavating it's important to gather as much information as possible so that archaeologists have the best chance of finding artifacts without damaging them.

There are size on size weldolets. The hold on the run pipe will necessarily be undersize (either hot tap or torch ) because it's not possible to cut the same size hole in the run without damaging the base material.

Can you put two different size tires on your jeep without damaging the drive- line?
You might be able to get by with it on a temporary emergency basis but if you do I'd only mix sizes in pairs and only either on the front or the back. You not only risk damaging the driveline and suspension and steering geometrym, but a single off sized tire will also be a safety hazard, it will throw off the computerized engine management system in the jeep.
