Wow guys I appreciate the support!!
Adamtheking I take no offense in your comments
I make many things other than minis, I also do woodwork, leatherwork, home repairs etc
I try my best to offer a quality handmade product at a fair price. Each mini takes about an hour to make but requires 24 hours of cure time, longer if doing multiple layers, a logo mini would be an example of multiple layers. Then the time it takes to turn each one on my lathe.
Resin blanks used in pen making or game calls start at $10.00 and go up as high as $30.00 just for a blank. No tooling. If I were to cut a mini blank into blanks for making pens I'd easily be able to sell them for $10.00 with no other work involved besides pouring and swirling colors so add in the cost of sandpaper, finish and the time it actually takes to tool the mini as well as the cost of shipping which is included in my prices my minis become very affordable. most people who buy my minis like the fact that they have something handmade, unique, one of a kind item made their way. After the cost of resin, dyes, sand paper, Polish, tools etc I make less than $12.00 an hour making these. Ask any skilled craftsman, that is a very low hourly rate for a specialty product. This is a hobby, I work full time 3rd shift. If this were a full time gig the prices would indeed be higher but I get satisfaction watching something I have made, from scratch, with my own two hands leave my shop and be used by hundreds of people around the world. I've made them for companies like Bearded Brothers and even Paul McBeth uses my minis.
I'm not sayinf anythung bad about the guy. He can charge whatever he wants and the minis are cool. Its just strange to me that a person would spend $20 to mark their disc. You guys must have better jobs than I do csuse thats a lot of money to me. I forget sometimes that not everyone is low lower middle class like me and actually earning their living working hard and being honest. You guys are probably state workers or something right?
leatherwork??? is it possible we could discuss a handmade guitar strap?
im also a huge fan of your minis.i do own one and get questions regarding it basically every time i play with someone different.people love them!
I was wondering if this thread or your fb page is the best place to monitor for new stuff? I LOVE the galaxy colored minis you posted back in October.
