Not gonna lie, I spent like 5 hours on the first one. Had that been a commission for a customer, it would’ve been a 300€ fridge handle. Two of them would more than double the price of the fridge itself.
Ya lol. Thats always the way. Mass production really reduces the cost of everything like crazy. Anything one builds for themselves is always going to be crazy expensive compared to factory made. Unless they have all the equipment already, and knowhow to do it real fast.
I can lend the tools I don’t have from my local community workshop and most of the time I don’t consider the time to build/repair something work, but leisure. So while yes, all my shit would be way too expensive if I sold it, it’s still very much viable for me
Yup, I totally get that. Plus theres the satisfaction of it. And for many things the option to have it custom suited to your needs.
If I was a billionaire, there would be very few things I’d buy from a factory. Well, maybe not few, like toothbrushes toilet paper etc… obviously there are many things id get factory, but wherever possible, I’d prefer hand made by artisans, because its cooler, I want them to have jobs, and I can have it custom made. I’d be prepared to pay that premium for others to do it too.
Now remove the bottom and re-do that one and your fridge looks meant to be that way, and better.
