About the Project

I am looking for a skilled individual within Canada to repair a sentimental necklace. The item is a small, solid metal, black-plated cross. The eyelet used to connect the chain has broken off, and I need a new hole drilled into the piece to allow for a jump ring.

Requirements

  • Location: Must be based in Canada. I am unable to cover international shipping.
  • Platform: You must have an Etsy shop to ensure buyer/seller protection for this transaction.
  • Skill: Experience with precision drilling in metal (0.4-0.6cm thick stainless steel). The hole must be drilled straight and measure 0.3-0.5cm in diameter.

Scope of Work

  • Primary Task: Drill a hole through the cross to accommodate a jump ring.
  • Optional Task: Cleaning the piece and/or affixing a jump ring so it is ready to be worn.

Compensation

  • Drilling Service: Up to $50 CAD.
  • Cleaning/Jump Ring Service: An additional $50 CAD.
  • Shipping: I will cover all shipping costs within Canada.
  • Negotiation: Payment is open to negotiation; I am prioritizing the sentimental value of the item.

Important Notes

  • Please only reach out if you meet the requirement of having an active Etsy shop.
  • While the original item was purchased for $20, I am willing to pay $100+ for this repair due to its sentimental value.
