Nice batch, Randy. Maybe you'll start mass production at some point...

They're my best seller at the craft shows. I sell them for $5 each, or 3 for $10. Everyone usually buys 3. I sell a few wire wraps too, but most people go to craft shows to spend nickels and dimes.

Randy, I always wonder if material ever dares to break apart for you. I see so many in there that would have broken up for me and they are just beautiful with a fantastic shine! With your assembly line production with the bell caps, they will be done and ready to sell in no time! Do you have the next batch all ready to go yet? It seems that last year when you were gearing up for the sales, you did about 3 batches of 600 in a row....That is just mind boggling!
Hope you sell bunches this year!

I hope I sell them all!! ;D Guess what? Harlie bell capped more than 60 pendants this morning before getting out of the chair. She got up only because every one of the slots were full!! (she's 8 years old now) Hell yeah! She also did a cab on the Genie last week (septarian cab), turned out nice. I gotta take pics, I'll post today.

You know you will have to start giving her a split of the proceeds after the show. She is one hard worker and very self motivated. Good genes.

Wow! Those are beautiful! Are those done in a rotary or vibe? or a combination of the two?
Can you share any pics of the finished pieces with bell-cap and cord/chain?
Thanks.

600 x $5 = $3,000
(600 / 3) x $10 = $2,000
Yup ... it all makes sense to me. Dollars and cents. Nice way to fund the addiction. You've got to sell some low-end material so that you can afford to play with the higher-end stuff. That should buy a few Hot Dogs.
Darryl.

Wow, with volume like that, you can really justify the price tag of the Genie!! Always impressive Randy. Thanks for the vibe instructions, I tumbled all summer and now the vibes are kicking out my "treasures every weekend!
