I think I'm gonna quit now.

Why? Because you can't make a tacky looking tilt-top table??

Just send your tools to me. I will cover the shipping costs.

Gee, Amazon has free shipping. Stoutman isn't being very competitive!

Funny looking dart boards...no numbers...

Yeah, why else would they flip up besides to throw darts at them? I was thinking the same thing. I wonder what kind of finish is self-healing for use on a dart board.

Nah, did one of those with my Sawzall. No sweat. j4

Me too...pruning blade, right? Or The "Demolisher"? Hold it all together with a roofing nailer till the JB Weld dries, right?

I'm not gonna.

This guy caters to the carriage trade. Pers>Got this link offa Woodcentral:

Yabbut.... at those prices, you don't need to sell more than a handful of pieces a year to make a pretty decent living...

OTOH, did you observe the amount of time that went into these pieces, on spec? Apparently, he has other means of support. If he makes a set every couple years, he isn't getting rich by woodworking.

You're a piker. Did one with my scout pocket knife and glued it up with self-rendered pitch extract.

Bars and casinos are cheaper.

If he sells one set every two years that is $60,000 a year. In my book that is a *very* good living - and for doing something he loves. The material cost on the two tables probably isn't more than a couple of thousand, all the cost is in the labor. If I thought I could gross $60K annually doing woodworking I'd be all over it.

umm... I think you've been quite heartily "tipped off" recently... ?

Poppycock and balderdash. All done with waterjet CNC's, lasers and CAD/CAM. . . . . . . . . . . . .....or not.

Huh? Did I miss something?
