@Paul B , can you please let me know when you have another one of your ''useless steam punk things'' for sale?
Actually I am in the process of building a piece similar to this one. I am not sure what I will do with it yet.
I sold 2 of this type. When these sold in an art gallery she was asking $3,000.00.
The gallery got half so they are not that profitable to build and sell unless I sell them myself. But even at $1,500.00. they are not going to make anyone rich giving that they cost me a few hundred to make and they take many hours to build.
Some of my projects I give away because I just love to build things and my wife won't let me keep all of them.
But I would like to. So far I sold about 40 of them, about half in an art studio in Manhattan, but they moved now so I don't do that any more.
The woman who owns an art gallery out here wants them, but she charges too much.
I recently gave this one to my friends wife as she really loved it.
I also gave her this small thing I made from stuff I found on the beach just as a joke
I still have this one but it is so heavy I never sold it because shipping would be a nightmare.
It's almost finished in this video. Now it has a copper grill over the chain and that ratchet handle is gone.
If you wanted to walk here, I would give it to you for free.
