By contrast, my complete builds with traditional finishes have been loss leaders. I enjoy the building process, but the return on investment has been disappointing.
With that in mind, I'm going to discontinue offering complete builds with traditional finishes to all but existing customers and return to where I started, graphic finishes. I plan to build these on spec for myself as stand-alone pieces and price them at a premium. If they sell, they sell. Otherwise, I'll keep them as art pieces.
These will be the first bodies in a new series of graphic finishes. I'm excited about the possibilities.
