Yeah, my shop activities are not always normal. When no one is looking, I've been known to two-step past the table saw, when a good Cajun song is playing on the radio. Whatever comes to mind, sometimes happen.
Oh, I'd bet there is a foo foo art gallery somewhere near you where the wealthy shop so specialty items. We're "fortunate" here to have some places around in various places, like the one's I mentioned, as well as in Beverly Hills, Wilshire, Some parts of Santa Monica, Venice Beach, etc. Some art galleries will review a catalogue of sort and accept pieces to show like a museum would, for a percentage of the sale. I know a few people here who work with stone and create art pieces, bowls, and stuff like that and then work out their deals, sometimes commanding very high prices due to the way the object catches the eye or fancy of the buyer. Some pieces go into high end homes, others into lobbies of business' and so on. Don't sell yourself short. Although it is nice for someone like me and others to buy something occasionally that doesn't require the birth certificate of a first born son. :)
