Looks handy, it is an interesting thing to try and put a price on. I did a little search but didn't turn up much, I had seen some similar units in the past. The Cushman's seem to bring pretty good money.
This DR was the only similar thing I found.

Selling asking$1200us. I think yours is a little more heavy duty.
I would hate to price it too low and have a ton of interest, price to high and no interest. :pullhair:

Well after input from a number of people I chose a middle ground price and put up for sale at $1300 :canada:
Well the thing just sold in only 12 hrs at full asking price.
Had so much interest I think I will build another when caught up on stuff.

That's awesome @DavidBarkey !!! Do you think the price was too low?

That’s great Dave. That means it was worth more, I suppose.

That could be a neat side business or extra retirement income. Interesting.

Talk about side business, there's this type of chair for kids named Stokke , that not only costs lots when new, they have a really big resale value, even second hand they're expensive. So I showed it to a buddy of mine who's doing drywall, bathrooms, general type of renovations, I said to him "do a copy of this, it sells really well." He said "no way, I get get $50 an hour and I got tonnes of work, why hassle with those chairs!" :rofl:

That's great Dave! Something to consider for future projects/side business for sure.

Eugen, I've thought the same over the years on a few things similar to that high chair. Stuff like that, especially hand made and local, does well. The trick is finding a way to do it that doesn't require a lot of time for sure...well at least until the kids are older lol.
