Actually 3 has been my downfall. I had 1, 2 and 4 for some of my attempts at finding a forum to sell in but I didn't have 3 right.

1, 2, and 4 I find are the big one's.

Hey, no problem. I only wish I had the presence of mind to take more pictures as I do things. I need a camera that follows me around. Hey. . . there's an idea!

THANKS FOR POSTING THE PICTURES!!! That will help us newbies a lot when we need the information.

Believe me I feel your pain. I actually haven't joined it. I find it rather pointless. "Oh gee lets... Randomly look at peoples faces and talk to them..." I would rather waste my time playing games or something.

Hmm... It actually looks really cool.
You gotta teach me how to do this, This is a skill I've been wanting to learn.

Movin right along. With failure comes success my friend.

Usually its the undervaluing or overvaluing of the time that is hardest to determine. I tend to undervalue the time and charge less than what people will pay. Thats okay to start out with because people buy quickly and you have reached a level of some experience. It takes time to find that sweet spot where you are getting both maximum dollar per sale and maximum sales volume.

It may even be better to overvalue at first and slowly lower the price until you are selling. That way you always are receiving top dollar for your time. It may take more time to sell however.

You said,"I’m going to have to try selling metalwork. I love doing metalwork, but I’ve never sold any of my work before so I don’t know how much I can get for it."
Here are two formulas that will pretty much work out to the same pricing for your work:
Method 1.
a.) Decide what hourly wage you want. A beginner will ask less than a seasoned vet but be sure to set it at something close to a livable wage. You don't want to undervalue, (or overvalue) yourself out of a living.
b.) Figure out what each project will take in terms of hours to complete.
c.) Multiply hours times hourly wage. That's your labor price.
d.) Figure out the cost of materials for the project and add to the price of labor.
e.) Figure out what twenty-five percent of that figure is and add it to that cost.
That figure is your asking price.
Method 2.
Figure out your cost of materials and multiply it by 3 if you are a beginner, by 4 if you've already had some successes in sales of your work, and by 5 if you are an expert.
Hope this helps.

Excellent synopsis of human motivation. Very useful in creating well-rounded fictional characters. Thanks!

I guess I should prob start carrying a knife:P

Hey nice idea!=D

But to clean it out, without using the sink at work?
Doesn't even seem possible:S
