Hi There

you can try it this way , the OV are just extruded and the LE are swept with the half round profiles.

but the results are a bit random where the end letters sweep to the outside profile

if you used 2 sweep lines you may be able to control them

Shayne - I like your approach. It looks like you forgot to Boolean Diff the ring with the inside diameter circle, which will make the ring wearable by removing material under the L & E. I did that and was able to Boolean Union the entire ring. Looks nice.

2 sweep rails tidys it up without having to boolean out the inside

rebuild on the D section to match the number of points on the top letters also gives a better sweep
