Keep in mind people that these are not SCAers, this is a business to them. When I worked for Woodcraft I was able to see some of the instruction given and they were amazing as well as the item you were able to take home. We are lucky to be in an organization that you can learn a ton of stuff for a small site fee and donation for kits. The mundane world is completely different. I just thought someone would be interested. Sorry to have caused such sticker shock. Should I send out any smelling salts?<div>
