Members Nod4Eight Posted April 10, 2011 Members Report Posted April 10, 2011 I started making chinks a few years ago because I wanted some and, well - I'm cheap and thought it would be a fun project. They turned out "unique" but I still wear them regularly. Since then I have made and sold 7 more pairs to friends etc. I finally got to where I felt my work was good enough to consign some at the local tack store. I dropped them off a couple weeks ago. They aren't near as fancy as some of the stuff you guys are making - they're just plain old utility chinks for every day work but they are well built. I went in today to pick them up so I could take them to our local horse expo next weekend and found out that they sold! My first sale to someone besides a friend or family member. I thought that was pretty cool. When I got back to the barn I made another sale - special order from a lady who's daughter is taking riding lessons. Pretty good day. Quote
