      $10,000 would have been a more realistic and fair price.

      $40 an hour for 100 hours of unskilled work is extortionate. This kind of artless epoxy stuff has been done to death. It's a roughly constructed and rough looking upside down chopping board with legs. He did well to sell it for $4K.

      You're missing the reality - no one pays anyone more than they have to. It's why nearly everything is made in China, Mexico, etc, and why the federal minimum wage in the US is $7.50.

    few comments: I think 4k is less to charge for it but people who dont know what goes into making this will think its very high so i usually reserve such pieces for me. Also it would be good to invest in a trim router for trim operations. I cant even imagine using full size router for that purpose. I agree that router is the scariest power tool I have used.
