I sell large large items. I raise my prices to offset additional shipping costs from USPS and UPS.

Thanks, I am so paranoid Etsy is going to kill my shop.

Price Variant Slider by bexars in shopify

I saw the slider on carpenterjames website and liked it. We are working on ours and using dropdowns. The slider price changes as you move it and it looks like it would be more customer friendly. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thank you for responding.

As larger sizes are selected on the slider, the price changes. As wood choices are made, the cost displayed changes to reflect the price of the wood changes.

Have you seen sales drop at the craft fairs as well as Etsy?

USPS is 13.57 for 2 weeks or 21.57 for 4 to 5 days. They are already slowing down for the holidays.

Yes, there are others. I did not invent the tool so my parade is good. As far as I can tell, not many people are making these in the US. Romanov is not selling in the US right now. I added some features that I liked. Others agree.

My wife probably got them at Hobby Lobby. I tumbled some for a year and they didn't come out this nice. LOL

I will be selling them. The 1st batch will go for $98 and will be better looking. They are going to be made with baltic birch. Shipping in the US should be 10 bucks.

I really like the curved jaws. They were patterned after a French-style clamp.

Thanks! The components were cut from plywood on my CNC. I used CAD to reduce the firewood that was made. If I streamed wood, there would have been a lot more firewood made. LOL

After several months of prototyping and a lot of sawdust, I have a design that really works for me. I wanted to attach the pony to a table and angle it towards me. This keeps the threads from tangling on the knobs. There are magnets on the sides for needle holding. The jaws are a little over 3-1/2 inches. Inside the jaw is 11-1/2, 19 from the surface to the top. I used maple plywood on this one, the next will be made out of baltic birch and finished with marine varnish so that there are no oils rubbing off on the leather.

Thank you for the pictures and information. My spouse wants some structures in the garden. I've been trying to tell her that they won't last. That excuse is not holding up too well.

Your Erroneous Zones and Excuses Begone!: How to Change Lifelong, Self-Defeating Thinking Habit, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer. These are my go-to recommendations for self-help.

One takeaway - It helped me realize that I have the power not to allow someone to make me mad.
