VWA Members Meeting - "How Do You Price That?" Panel discussion - August 2025

How do you put a price on your craft?

Join us at The Leveson in North Melbourne for a relaxed and open roundtable discussion on one of the trickiest topics in woodworking: pricing your work.

Hosted by the Victorian Woodworkers Association, this panel session is for professional and emerging woodworkers who want to hear from others in the field to gain a better understanding of how to value their time, skill, and materials.

VWA Vice President Adam Markowitz will MC the night, joined by a small panel of experienced makers and business owners, George Harper from Tide Design, Nick Coyle & Sunny Wilder from The Timber Trip.

They will reflect on the real-world strategies (and pitfalls) they’ve encountered when pricing their work. We will explore different models, from bespoke to batch production and cover topics like:

• Charging for design

• Factoring in profit and overheads

• Communicating value to clients

• Balancing art, time and money

Bring your questions, your stories, and your friends. This is a casual, supportive event where everyone has something to share.
