the custom pens we make? I spent at least 2 hours today cutting and gluing up a blank that may well explode when I turn it and it ain't done yet but it was fun, I must say. I see the pen art being created by the members here some must have taken 2 or 3 days to plan, prep, assemble, turn, finish and only then begin breathing again. So, how do we figure a price for these creations? The laser kits that sell well and are always popular raise the same questions. I sell pens by word of mouth only (at 72yo I'm not lookin' to start another business) and anywhere from $free to $90 with a box but if I charged by the hour, some would be priced at $1000 or more. Without divulging any secret info, how do you calculate a value on the customs.
