I run a small business in Southern California so I know exactly what your talking aboutI didn't read the whole thing, but I get the jist. Over committed and unfulfilled promises. Sounds like old girlfriends.
Yah, that's one of the reasons if I make something, would rather leave a drawing, instructions or what every under free license.. I've done things like this and unless you can scale to 10's of thousands of units it's not worth it. Taxes, business licenses, insurance, blah blah it adds up, plus the extra time of make, packing, shipping, correcting all the stuff that goes wrong to make an extra $1K that year breaks down to about $1.5/hr.
Best of luck to all taking on new businesses it's not easy.
