Better than paying for a Gucci

Yeah, that’s a lot. That’s often the case with handmade stuff. I knit, and if I include the cost of labor in addition to yarn, a shawl would be at least $300-400. Not many people are willing to pay that.

Someone will surely buy this with their trust-fund money and take it to Burning Man

The problem is that the materials and skilled labor hours need to make sense.
If someone spends weeks designing and then building/creating it, that weeks amount of labor.

Probably even calculating with minimum wage it will run really high.
