Popular Post John B Posted November 30, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Well, looks like it's going to be busy time in the ol' shed for a couple of weeks. I think I'll just ask the War Office to bring my tea down there each night. Did very well at the markets this morning. They ran from 9am - 1pm and I left about $600 better of then when I came. Now to re-stock for last one of the year, in a fortnight's time. davidg, Scrappile, wombatie and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely stopped cutting about 6 years ago as I was making wooden toys along with the normal scrolled items and the demand just got to much. I was down the shed all hours and I got sick of it. So threw in the towel. Only doing what I want now, no special orders, and if it sells good, if not so what wombatie, OzarkSawdust, Be_O_Be and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McDonald Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 John: You have about as much chance getting the War Office to do catering as I would with Dr. Mom. (Which is still better odds than Jim-Mex and Norma) John B and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people do these shows & I'm not knocking anyone that does, but for me there seems to be just too much stress. My wife does six shows a year and she pretty much has her head in the game when it comes to making, planning & setting up and goes merrily along her way. I'm doing a big show with her this coming weekend, just my second show, and after that shop time is going to be my time. To everyone of you that do these shows on a regular basis, I salute you.
