The Ring that Tolkien partially based the Dwarven Rings on grew the owner's wealth over time by producing copies of itself. My thought was instead of using components, the caster can sacrifice the wealth of the ring. That was the connection I was going for. Not saying that's what should be, just that there is a reason behind the idea.
Nah, I got the concept and realized what you were going for with your post. It's a neat idea. It's just that I don't think it's a good balance point, and the casting part, I think, doesn't really mesh well conceptually with the crafting focus of the rest of the ring.
