You can thank the tree hugging hippy f*cktards for that. My dad builds a lot of dressers and cabinets in his spare time. Its just a hobby for him but his work is quality and he gets a lot of it. He just charges for the price of the material and its still so damn expensive.

Hehe, no pc parts mentioned yet? How about video cards.

Other items would be anything assoicated with autos, including buying one new and having it fixed. With auto's mentioned, then comes auto insurance. What a rip off thanks to the slime bag lawyers.

You run steam? you saw lumber? i know an old guy around here that has some ratehr large engines and saws logs with them a few times a year.

I want to build a 1.5" scale live steam, but dont have the money, machines, or space to do it.
