Is woodturning accepted enough and the economics and scale of its market
robust enough to accommodate all good (not great or well known) turners
who offer their turnings for sale at whatever price they choose? Is our
image as craftsmen and artists strong enough now to let the market
decide _if we can sell whatever we want to make at whatever price we
want to put on it or is its status still fragile and needs to be
coddled?


"You can't make a living selling big trombones ... no sir!
Mandolin picks perhaps, and here and there a Jews' harp."

Once you sell the band, you don't have to sell trombones. Or you could
become a music teacher....
