Horse shoe art??

[mudsplasher]

Hope you ain't too disappointed when you don't sell many around our area. There are lots of those floating around Scott and Morgan counties. I have a brother in law that sells horse shoe gate latches for around $5.00 and that includes two horse shoes. His tack racks are just as cheap.

Haha yeh after you average in labor paint and everything else they are worth at least that much

[wireburner]

I belive that is right!

[weld_13]

I would go for at least $20 a peice. I know it does nock down some costumers but thats really what i think one is worth

[wireburner]

either $15or $20or $17

[jjsjeff]

I don`t want to over charge how bout $17

I'm thinking a minimum of $25 since you have $10 in materials (horseshoes, welding consumables, grinding wheels, and paint) in each one not including build time. In addition, you have to drive to the craft show and spend additional money just to have the space for a couple days to sell plus the time spent selling. Ebay is kinda expensive, but at least you wouldn't have the money spent on gas.
