we have some 'old guy' local friends in our woodworking association
--this club is only for hobby work --
no commercial activity allowed.

one morning per year -- they all offer some of their work at a charity show --

the stuff sells out immediately-
and they raise about $10,000 in one hour !!

nobody copies anybody Smile --
each piece is totally original --

here are some examples
enjoy :

Makes your stuff look cheap and termite ridden. Plainly obvious it's not yours.Laugh Out Loud

How on earth did you get in that club with your limited skills! Laugh Out Loud

Seriously, that is very fine craftwork.
