    Great video and work. I always use a "food safe stain etc..." when making any product that may come in contact with food or used in thw kitchen. Makes me feel better and keeps people or kids safe who may use it in a manner other than its designed purpose. Keep yp the great work and videos

    The high prices on these items should be according to their material and workmanship. An eighth grader could make these out of pine and slap on some stain. It’s a really beautiful ones are going to have a more expensive finish and of course they will start with hardwood.

    It's obvious this is not a woodworker that understands what profit is. Profit is the result after material costs, labor and overhead, shipping in some cases and taxes are removed from the sales price.

    • @AreBaloni
      @AreBaloni  6 місяців тому +1

      Hi Paula!
      I do understand what profit is, and you’re absolutely right about what you said. I added in the material cost of course. When it comes to labor cost, I’m alone in the shop and I assume most people watching are as well. Therefore the cost of labor is whatever profit is left after adding all the expenses. When it comes to shipping, here in Norway at least, it’s almost always added on top of the sales price, and the taxes are calculated based on the profit, and will also vary from country to country, and even person to person. But that’s something that I probably should have mentioned in the video.
      Thanks for watching the video, and for leaving the comment.

    I was with you until the tray for your sister. You claimed you just used a basic piece of board but anyone with eyes and some common sense can see that piece is multiple pieces attached similar to a butcher block style. That may sound "so what" ish to some people but that actually makes a huge difference in cost and material availability.

    • @AreBaloni
      @AreBaloni  6 місяців тому +3

      Not exactly butcher, as it’s not the endgrain facing up, but edge-grain. Seems like there’s a big difference between Norway and US here. In Norway these types of boards are pretty much the only ones they are selling in «home depot» style stores.

      Second; I believe there’s plenty of customers for all of us out there. And that if you somehow stand out, you can get a piece of that pie. Me posting one video will not over-saturate the market.

He had to start somewhere to get to that point, and that he did. You must wear many hats in this business. In this business, you'll be wearing your salesman hat more often than your woodworking hat.
