The Electronics folks did a Fix-It Night recently, and it got me thinking… It might be fun to do a jewelry fixit night. I know that’s not really anyone’s main priority as a maker, but it might be a fun way to interact with other makers.
Here’s what I’m thinking:
- Offer a few hours of simple jewelry fixing, like missing jump rings, replacing ear wires, maybe some epoxy work, simple restringing, etc.
- Each piece would be evaluated individually on what is needed, and some items may not be fixable.
- Anything requiring soldering would need an experienced person to solder.
- No money involved for fixes, or a tiny donation for added materials.
- We’d have to determine whether DMS would allow us to do more complicated work for a fee, or if we should simple take that ouside the DMS environment.
Please discuss pros and cons, DMS restrictions, potential interest.
