Ring-Around a Piston... (hey! I couldn't think of anything else)

Already ran it on air, but I never got around to put the rings on the pistons.  I bought a set of rings which I soon found out were not the right size.  Instead of dishing out more cash, I decided to make my own.  Slots were cut in the pistons for the rings.  Here's what they look like.
