Hilarious & far too accurate in depicting my attempts to act the "Master Craftsman" over the past 40+ years of woodworking. It’s damn good to know that I’m not the only old coot that has made so.o.o many mistakes with expensive wood & lived to laugh about it.

Chris,

Love your inspiration for this blog. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time.

Having done the craft show circuit for many years I have some additional titles for you.

Craft Show Sales: Fact or Fiction

How to properly price your craft show sales pieces. (Sub-title: How to secret shop the other woodworking vendors to find out how much they are charging for the same items you made.)

How to successfully give away and donate all the items made for craft shows that magazines and books said were a sure seller every time.

Why other crafters sell items from patterns I designed and I can’t give the item away.

Craft Show Sales: How to make thousands of dollars per year without trying hard

One or two weekends a year and the amazing money that can be made for just a few hours time.

The beginners guide for the craft sale crafter: There are no costs for just a little of your time and other myths.

In spite of the silly titles above, doing the craft shows was a lot of fun and a great experience. Hope didn’t offend anyone as this is all in fun.
