Just looks like junk. No wonder you can't earn a living with any of it.

Earn a living? What part of "hobby shop" did you fail to understand?

Oh..thats right...all of it was beyond you.

If its not based on modeling clay..you arent allowed to touch it.

And only edible clay at that.

One could look inside my shop, and see "worthless junk", and then others see
just what they're looking for, and get out that fat wallet.

It's all in the eye, and it takes a while to learn that.

I got a new neighbor. He's a former biker, but likes to tinker with motors.
So far, he has fixed two ATVs. Cost - zero. Cost at a shop, probably a
couple of hundred. I got him five mowers, an edger, and a gas trimmer,
either free, or $5-10 at yard sales. We started a coffee can, and both
kicked in a Franklin. Now I'm going to bring in stuff, he's going to get it
running, and we'll raid the coffee can as needed. So far,we got about a
$500 inventory, $175 in the coffee can, and an outlay of about $25.

Some people would look at this stuff and see junk. I see money. And I
ain't above wheeling in to a curb on trash day, or dumpster diving to save a
treasure.

A clean shop is the sign of a sick mind.
