I cannot seem to find any good piercing shops, all the old ones I used to visit seem to have moved or went out of business. I am in need of a steel circular barbell lip ring, and I cannot find one anywhere! Here is a link to what it looks like:

No I haven't. I found one, bought it, and tried modding it, but no luck. Can't make it small enough.

What you can do is make the little round barbell part of it out of a scupted prim. You could make one using rokuro pretty easily. Then just attach those to a tiny prim ring or you don't even have to bother with actually recreating the whole thing and just stick the barbells into your lips.

the ring part was easy to make the proper size using a torus

then you can also cut it away to give it the correct shape

the little balls were hard for me to get right, without using a sculpt nano prim (which I have none of)

I am sure someone will know of some good places with them

(I tried the hollowed sphere trick but it did not look right because of the way the that works...)

Unless prims have changed, in order to make the ball small you have to kind of manipulate it. So I don`t imagine a "noob" could figure it out.

exactly

and if you use the common way of making a small sphere using the normal sphere, the result is not a solid looking ball (due to the way it is done)

hollow the inside of a sphere to about 30, then apply a totally clear texture to the outside, and you will see what I mean
