How exactly do they do this? Are there a few different ways to do this? Since I have started working in a machine shop, I havent been able wear my ring, but I would like to start wearing it when I am not in the machine shop, at home, and such. Right now, its just too hard to get on and off. Also, how much does it typically cost to get a ring resized? ETA: I created a thread about a week ago or so, titled "Buying DVD's" Is there an easy way to find it without searching page by page? |

I worked at a Sears store in the jewerly dept. in high school, we outsourced all our jewerely repairs/sizing to a local jeweler Our charge to the customer was $10 with about a week turn around time My advice would be go directly to a jeweler and cut out the middle man, although you might get a better price through a larger store, I don't know |
I am not a member and I have a MY Topics tab???? |
| I sized rings, set stones, ect for a few years. Its pretty simple. To make it smaller you cut whatever size you need out, bend the bottom till its held together under its own pressure. Then you use a small piece of the same kt gold, add a small amount of flux, and heat it till it fills the crack. To upsize you reverse the process. This should cost you $20 or less. If the ring is so thin and old you can break it with your fingers, it needs to be re-shanked, this costs less then $100. |
Oh yeah it is MY ACTIVE TOPICS that you dont have.. Sorry |
