Or put the tensioners in the middle of the chain. That'd look good too.
What did you accomplish today?

Late 19th Century Black Forest Gnome Table
An amazing black forest carving of a gnome holding a fish. This table is certain to distract even the purest among us. The top is a replacement. Condition: Shaped top is a replacement. Good antique condition with wear to surfaces. Recently polished

That's some gorgeous wood.
I'm sure yours will be way cooler and definitely cheaper...that thing is pretty basic.
No way I'd pay $800 for that table...I wouldn't even pay $100 for that...I'd make my own for less than $40 and I'd get the satisfaction of welding it up myself...

Furniture can get very expensive.
especially when they have $40 worth of material

Also you're dealing with something that's not mass produced. You're paying for time.

And I only do quality expensive work. But somebody will bitch about a $1000 pool pump that they NEED for their pool. And then the same breath will be like "look at the yard art of condoleeza rice I just paid $3,000 for." ".

I had a shit load of hours in it and it's not cheap material. You pay for time.

And is it a $1000 pump or is it a $1000 job?

Oh I'm not doubting your workmanship or the cost of it at all. Just that there seems to be a pretty big divide in customers heads about what they're willing to pay for stuff they want and what they think they should pay for stuff they need lol.
