Jim

You are the king--not Bob Wills type of king--but the king of finding things to inlay.'

Great work, but that is what I've come to expect from you.

 

(And Google "Bob Wills is still the King" if you don't get the first line.

Do you put the inlays on both the front and back of the box or just the front Jim?

Just on the front.  I finished eight more of these today and started on ten more.

(Well I just have the pieces for the ten cut , still have to do the inlays.)

Those are a great idea Jim. I tried to enlarge the picture to look at them closer and it looks like the price tag says $10. Is that correct?

Yes $10.  That is the best  price point for a farmers market.  These are very easy to make and most inlays take me about 5 minutes at the saw.  Takes longer to make the rest of the boxes.  Less than two dollars in  materials, including finish.  (My time is about worthless.)

 This is my secret to selling a lot of stuff.  Keeps away any competition also.  I do not run a business I just have a very well funded hobby. <grin>

I can see how you sell so many now.
