My husband had a stroke last year. He was blessed and it didn't have any long-term effects. I showed these to him, and he was so excited to start working on them. You have really helped him start getting back into doing little projects. Thank you so very much. I have not seen him this excited in a long time. Bless you.
I'm a 64 year old man and I had to leave work because I was suffering from anxiety and depression, I really love the simplicity of your Ideas, I am reasonably comfortable so I've being buying small bits and pieces to start woodworking for about 18 months now but didn't know what to make or really have the will to start. I also have a laser printer that I used once doing a test and wrote a simple message to my beautiful wife. Now because of what you said about personalising simple shapes I think I might start making some bits for friends at first to see if they like what I make and then hopefully expand from there. Thanks once again and I have subscribed to your channel.

Thank you for this comment, it really meant a lot to know that I was helpful to your situation. One of the reasons I started woodworking was to relieve stress from a stressful job. In my experience woodworking is great at getting you out of your own head and into what you are doing. I wish you the best on your endeavors into woodworking. If you have any questions fell free to ask them. Don't put too much into what friends think of your projects. There is a market for hand made goods and just because your friends aren't into what you make doesn't mean a lot of other people wont be. You could make the best video game ever made but if your friends aren't into video games they wont be very helpful to you for advice.

I'm 2 years into woodworking and i do it as a part time hobby. The tools I started with were a hammer, a hand saw and 2 screwdrivers. That was some hard work for a year or so, but i got it done. I slowly bought electric tools and started taking on bigger projects that paid forbthe new tools. Now I'm purchasing bigger shop tools off of the money I've made from the side hustle. I'm proof that you don't need a big shop with $10,000 in equipment. Oh, my shop is a 7 × 5 enclosed trailer. To all those whiners. Stop criticizing and just go get it done.

I used to think the same way! my wife and others have been telling me for years to make stuff to sell and I always said who would pay for this stuff when they can make it themselves! I think more and more people are getting away from using tools and they would rather just pay someone to do it for them. Thanks for the comment brother!
I started my Etsy shop in April 2023. I initially added some bottle openers, balancing wine bottle holders, plant stands and such and got nothing. I added a bird feeder and squirrel feeder a few weeks later and by August, I was blowin' and goin'. I also added some cedar jack o' lanterns for Halloween and those did well, too. I have sold over 400 units since I started. Not quite the volume you have done but my items take a couple of days to make, plus I also have a day job. I'm averaging about 30 orders a month and that keeps me just busy enough that I don't feel overwhelmed. The point is, it can be done. You gotta do your homework to find a good product, or set of products, to sell, but it can be done.

Didn’t even use the completed version of the piece, she just stole an image of my half completed work off my blog and used it to decorate her phone cases for sale. That’s the moment that I knew people will literally copy ANYTHING and use it to make a dime 😂

@@jascogoods no, you really did get it worse than me because it impacted your sales. It didn’t mine, it wasn’t a competing market and no one has ever been able to adequately duplicate the product that I make. They do poorly executed copies with far less detail, but they aren’t have as good as mine or as detailed. A lot of clay sculpting and random oddball parts went into my miniature builds, things like old metal parts and even old TV tubes. Really really hard to duplicate down to the fine details, because I have days and days of work into them. Most people want a faster to make easy turn over item than that. I did it first the passion and enjoyment rather than monetary gain and it shows. I had the time and lack of need to be able to do that as an enjoyable hobby. I’m lucky in that regard. Because I did them well, I got published in magazines a few times. If you google in the images section “miniature headless horseman 1:12 scale” or “miniature candy trolley 1:12 scale” mine are the first results shown. The top few search results. So a phone case isn’t in competition with those items.
I’ve been doing wood junk for years and you’re absolutely correct. A little work made easy and smart can turn a buck! Good on you man

I am not offended by your comment at all!! I too have had my friends and family telling me to sell my stuff for years and I also said "why would anyone buy this stuff when they could make it themselves" It wasn't until I saw things my wife received as gifts from coworkers that they bought on Esty that I thought well if they can do it so can I. One of the gifts was a piece of wood like a 1x3 with my wife's name burned into it! That's it, it wasn't even sanded or stained and when I looked them up it was being sold for $20!!! So I just started doing some research but I didn't start off selling mountains the first stuff I picked didn't sell that well so I had to do more research and keep adjusting the plan.

I just made $20k in one month. Some schmuck showed me how to make mountains that people buy and I undercut him. lol, jk. It's awesome that you're putting this out there for people. It's crazy to think how much people pay for decorations and how easy some of them are to make. Have you ever tried to itemize everything to figure out how much you're making an hour on the projects? Probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Run a batch of them start to finish to see total labor time per piece. Then figure out about how many you can do per can of stain, and per bottle of paint. How many can you do on one belt. Divide that all out. example Paint cost $2/100=$.02 Stain cost $10/100=$.10 Sanding belt $5/500=$.01 Wood $10/8=$1.25 Total cost $1.38 per Sale price $19- production cost $1.38 = $17.62 Labor 30 minute (.5 hours) 17.62/.5=$35.24/hour

😂😂😂 You got me in the first sentence! I did a rough estimate in my head a few times when I was working till 10 at night making these. it was around $20 an hour and I remember thinking, I should just get a part time job at Costco! 😂 But then there were a lot of times when I was doing big batches of mountains and I was making a lot more then that. It was sorta up to me and how efficient I wanted to be. When I slacked during the slow days and only worked the bare minimum instead of doing some prep work that caused me to be just barley keeping up when it was busy and therefore being way less efficient. Thanks for the formula though, I'll use it when I open my store back up.

I am a cabinet maker /cabinet installer and finish carpenter....needless to say I probably have more tools than the average guy out there that is just tinkering around. Lately I have been upgrading all my tools to Festool....totally unessisary and super expensive but they are just SO good it makes it an absolute joy to do things that I had grown tired of before.plus I have made enough money doing what I do that I can easily afford them so why not? I think maybe these people complaining about how many tools you have are those who 1) think woodworking is just super super easy and a way they can make money with no skills at all and 2)they want to make 100k a year with a hand saw and a hammer.....not gonna happen, you do need to invest in at least SOME tools if you are going to be effective at woodworking. I got started with about $250.00 worth of tools (30 years ago so now the same would prob cost say $750 - $1000) with that you can do something, then build on it.

Yes I couldn't agree more. Good for you brother, you are proof that hard work and dedication pays off. I have never used a Festool but I am so curious as to how well they work because of all the great things I hear about them. But I can understand the feeling us upgrading a tool and how much it improves the woodworking experience.

because they do not understand what it takes to make things. They think they, too, need a lot of expensive tools because they have no idea how to make things.

Near me in Chicago there’s a free tool library. I’m not sure exactly what tools they have but I know they even have different stuff like camping equipment. And the regular library near me has some basic stuff you can check out even sewing machines. 😀
Love your humor!

I supported myself and my three sons doing woodworking projects and simple crafts in the 80s ~ and I started with a basic miter box, jigsaw, and plain old sandpaper. I ended up building not only a small workshop, but all of the storage I needed, an incredible amount of shelves and furniture, but over time added the high end saws and equipment I needed to keep going. Anyone that complains because you show them basic projects but higher end tools is looking for excuses. Use your kitchen table, a scrap table in the backyard/your carport, or a spare room/attic room/the basement and do the work to get started!! This entitled attitude that you graduate high school or college and should be able to afford a million dollar home with all the furnishings is ridiculous.

My husband does woodwork, usually for when someone needs a certain item, then he tells them what it would cost and they balk and usually pay. We're in CO and he has a friend that gets a lot of beetle kill wood so I shall show him your channel and maybe he can make smaller things using that wood instead of big things. Our son does leather work on request but won't make little items to sell, too busy in his real job. He started by going to a leather company to be mentored and his stitching is really good, the pay just wasn't good enough. they both weld and have made some pretty cool things. I like the little book holder and mountains are cute.

My husband dabbles in art with clay. We know literally nothing about Etsy but would like to sell the many things he’s made over a year. They’re just sitting in the house and we could use the extra money for bills. I guess the main questions we have are : do we have to have a tax id for business to sell? How do taxes work?
Still have that dark blue Ryobi in my basement for mundane tasks when needed lol. It's not great but it does the trick.

I hate getting rid of tools, especially one that I used so much. It might sound weird but I feel like it got me through a lot!!😂
I started with the same Ryobi saw and upgraded to the same Dewalt! I hate the tool comments as well. I went to pawn shops and craigslist when I first started and spent about $300 total for a basic setup. My father gave me a 1980’s craftsman tablesaw which I fixed up and upgraded. That same tablesaw can be found on marketplace and Craigslist usually for $75-$200. People need to stop complaining and start doing.

That's a crazy coincidence! It was such a difference between the two saws! I wish I would have gotten the Makita though so I could put it up against the wall, the Dewalt needs too much clearance behind it.

@@jascogoods Right on. What I'm struggling with is how to use a router properly. I found a cool plant stand / coffee table at the thrift store that had been painted 1000 times. I took it home and stripped the paint and then sanded a bit too much and sanded through some veneer (right on the top). I tried applying new veneer, but I effed that up too, lol. So, what I've decided to do is to cut out an inset in the top that's the same shape of the top, while leaving a 1/4 rim around the outside. This way my wife can use it as a plant stand. But I don't know how to keep my router from going off the edge. I'm assuming I need to build a template. I'll figure it out, lol.
