Good advice from lovingmama. It very hard to get people to pay you for your time when you do labor intensive work. My husband does some custom car/truck parts for specific models. He made a really nice gauge pod for the truck. Some people wanted him to make one for them but choked on the $600 price. At that price he only made about $6.00/hr because they were hugely labor intensive. People are used to the "Walmart price" on things and most people can't tell the difference in quality between cheap products and custom made.
