   While you're looking around for shows, you might also consider this custom-made furniture site.  I know a couple of people who get more work than they can handle through the site.

   Maybe (I've not been to the site you mention).  I put a link in my post to "Custom Made" web site.  Click on link in this sentence:  "...you might also consider this custom-made furniture site. "

   Looking at the Wood Artists Gallery, it is a much more sophisticated site, but I suspect it's quite expensive for the craftsman -- e.g., you would probably pay a big fee on any commission you got through them.  That may be OK, depending on what price point you are at.

   I just threw out the Custom Made link as a low-cost way of getting some kind of presence on the internet.  As I mentioned before, I've heard a couple of people say they've gotten a healthy level of work through the site.

   As indicated on their sign-up page, cost is $35/year plus a couple of one-time charges ($10 per specialty category and $10-$15 per gallery page.  So you can get started with them for, say, $75 with listings in 3 specialty categories.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
