Rob....you make my head hurt
You are way too deep and intelligent for me.
I have never sold anything I've made. Either I keep it or give it away. It would seem to me though that if I was to sell something I would do it on a commission basis. We would have an agreed upon price as well as a down payment for material cost. Kind of like Don is doing with his church project.
Since I don't do this for a living I would estimate the cost of materials and add what I thought was a fair profit. Maybe I would check the price of a similar product at real high end store and add 20% to that price for my hand made version.
