Hi woodworksnmore

I think you are right about the price, a bit high BUT I think you should step back and look at the BIG picture ...

It will be a long time b/4 he makes a dime from his invention...

Sounds to me like you have an investment in this jig.
I understand all about what it takes to get something to market. I'm just saying that at that price, it knocks out the little guy from ever owning one.

Plus, I didn't like the inventer after he did what he did. That made it to where I will really have to want this so bad that I can't ever do withour it before I buy it.

Then I'm sure you more then got your money back. As I said, I don't mind someone making some money, I also don't mind someone saying it's too much and not have to worry about someone like you getting all defensive about it. At least the last guy had the right idea about not joining in on this thread anymore.

Everyone has a story to tell. I could take hours telling about how I haven't worked in over 10+ years and the hardships I've had & am still going through. Bottom line is this, it's just too much for the little guy to pay.

But no hard feelings about the stand you've taken, even if you are wrong.

Guys,

I think you're both right in that you have a right to your opinions. We all perceive life from a different perspective and that's what makes this forum great. We can put forth those perspectives.

A price for a tool could be 'expensive' for one person and could be considered 'cheap' by another. That comes partly from our financial background and resources. Some have seemingly endless resources while others have few but still manage because they find other ways around spending that money.

For me, I'd love to have a jig like that, just can't justify it. I'd also love to have a $1200 TS, can't justify that either. Some others have no problem justifying that in their situations, and I don't have any problem with that.

I consider myself the little guy and if I want to do what that jig allows me to do, I'll have to find another way but I can see it appears to be a wonderful too, must be, cause I was daydreaming about it. That being said, price setting is really difficult with all the hoops a person has to jump through and what will affect end price.

Sounds like you've both been there so I'll get off the soap box now...sigh.

Ed......:-)
