I'm a Creeker, yes I m.
I fries my bacon in a wooden pan.
Good luck to them.
Pretty tough whollening the holes out in the handle and nicking it with small gouge.
Just because they have it listed online doesn't mean they actually sell any.

This reminds me of when I walk through our mall on "craft" day.
A grand father clock $2400. Looked like a 10 year old had build it.
Joints wide open and not a piece of good hardwood in it.
The guy was very proud of his clock.
He got a little ticked when I pointed out just a few of his mistakes.
He told me if I thought I could do better I should build my own.
It is on my todo list. Just don't know where to put it when it is finished.

There is free shipping, though.
My wife sells some unique crochet items on her ETSY store and was recently contacted by fab. They offered her half of what she sells the items for and suggested she could make up the difference in volume. Some things are truly made by hand and can't be mass produced unless some poor third world person makes them for pennies on the dollar, then made in the USA goes out the window.
Tom, you get to increase prices 10x if you work in a "studio" making "bespoke" "artisanal" crafts. It helps if you have a mustache.
I'm guessing the extra handle adds $150 to the price.
Anyone have any idea why you'd want two handles on a cutting board? Hell, mine don't even have one.
Would a scraggly beard work? I think I can pull that off... The mustache thing has never worked very well for me despite trying several times over the years (being blond doesn't help the appearance none I can tell you).
The "carving" looks to me like it was done with a pin router or similar. The edges on the board were clearly hit with a poorly aligned roundover bit and then not cleaned up very well. Unimpressed by the board, definitely impressed by the price. I really do wonder how much some of this sort of thing sells.. Might be more than you'd think.
Well... For me this would take an afternoon to build and finish and advertise and ship (I'm a hobbiest, what can I say....). But
Let's say 2 to 4 hours. 3 hours shop time at $60/hr = $180
I'm keeping my day job. I recon I might sell one every 3 months or so......??
Whats off in my math here?
Hopefully--if this was your livelihood--you'd have some jigs made up to produce 10 (or 100) at a go, rather than one by one.
Yeah, but the shipping is free.

Well, work it backwards. Lers say $40 is a reasonable price. Then you might want to have a profit... Say 50%. So I have to make them for $20 each, with overhead and distribution and shipping and everything else factored in. (which gives me what... 15 to 20mins to spend making each one) From what I can see, the handles here are hand formed (at least to some degree), so can't just set it up on a cnc and let ER rip. I still can't see how to make any money at it.
Not saying they will sell any, but I do see how the price came out so high
