:-O How much are you charging them for that kind of work? I wish I had some sort of something I needed done in wood, if I did I'd have you do it. -- This signature is only a standin.

Bloody loads. I'm being paid £7,500 for the twelve. Though that's inclusive, so my research trip had to come out of it (about £300), and materials (only about £300, for musical instrument grade boxwood courtesy of Prince Charles - well, Highgrove estate, anyway), and blades (£150 and rising) PH34R M1 PUN-5K1LL5

I dare say there's a bit of truth in what you say. I'm only charging around £7.50 an hour - not even skilled labour rates. But I do love it. I'm fed up of carving the ball exteriors, though, having done ten so far and another fourteen to go. PH34R M1 PUN-5K1LL5

That's a skill well worth learning then, apparently =D Does it take you a lot of time? -- This signature is only a standin.

Also I think that you should get shots of them all, assembled and of the insides, and put them up on a web page. -- This signature is only a standin.
