You're WAY underpricing yourself

Jmb did you cut the frame for the doors and drawer front out of one piece?

No separate pieces.  Which I had to do twice when I broke it!!!

With carvex and rotex to get to match best I could

There's a bit of work in that so! How come you didn't run the rails on the bottom of the doors the same way the top of them?

The bottom rail is done how you normally would do it.  The top rail is different because it was easier to do it that way.  Saved me sticking a curve on the style I just kept the bottom square on the top rail u see so the style top stayed square and just butted underneath.  

It's all going to be painted so be okay

Edited !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice recovery. The reveals in the repaired photo look money.
 
Nice work. I hope ya came out ok.  I get upset sometimes too. Had a Makita work light keep cuting out on me today, got pizzed and broke it. Hate when tools dont work like their supposed to.

Now I need a new light :>D
 
When I first started with my mason contracting biz, if i made a slight boo-boo, i would apologize to the customer.
If a big mistook, it would be fixed before anybody could see it.  the small, and un-noticeable misttoks were the problems i might apologize for.  i very soon realized the mistooks i had apologized for would be noticed forever after.  Once i learned how to stand in FRONT of a misalined brick, or a joint raked a little too deep, etc, and point out how proud i was of the job while sort of waving at the other corner, or side of project, the mistook was never noticed by anybody.

So true, I notice every boo boo in my home. No one else sees them and compliments my work, but I see them everytime I walk in the room.
 
"The moral of this tale of woe is this, charge what you think the roduct is worth include profit and when it comes to business you have no friends.

They pay the same, if I even work for them at all."  quoted from Sancho57


I remember a friend of my father many moons ago (in the 1930's) who was a top notch machinest and photographer.  He did a job for a friend who complained about the price.  "But Joe, I'm a friend of yours."

Joe's reply was, "I never made any money by doing work for my enemies."

Nah never, when someone notices something, I tell them its custom to add character
 
Nah, not mee.  i never made a rele mistook.  As Sacho does, i just put them in there.

I read once about Navajo blankets that are so meticulously and artfully woven.  They perfectly do their woven designs except for one little mistake that is put in there on purpose because "no man is perfect".

Of course, i carry that one step further when my Dearly Beloved gets on to me about something she considers to have been some infraction.  I just tell her that "no man is perfect EXCEPT me.  i did it just to keep her alert."  ::)

I got really really scared the other day. My wife actually told me I do good work.

I went to the church and lit a candle…..
 
I call it the "paint spot theory". Whenever one paints a room, always miss a spot that can be easily noticed and readily fixed. When the "inspector" notices it and you fix it, the inspection is most often over.
