[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 404316, member: 1365"] Good advice from an expert. But I don't consider my time in the shop as just screwing around as that kinda minimizes the value of any products. I recently donated one knife and one carved walking stick to a local charity auction. The two items cleared a total of $500. Pretty good for putzing around. Here's the thing. I have friends and acquaintances here that, at least to me, are highly valued. I've sold knives to them, Mr. F included, for materials plus two bucks an hour. Why? Because they deserve it. Mr. F especially. No one has a more giving spirit. So if I make next to nothing on some item I at least have the satisfaction of returning some of what he and others have given here, and likely elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
