  • Make money with common 2x4's. In this woodturning video I am making tealights from construction 2x4's. They are very easy to make and sell great at craft shows and online. In this new woodworking video I show you how step by step.

    this is a great video good close ups, clear voice, but no measurements and its sanded up to 400 what were the steps things like that are really helpful in a teaching video.
    its a awesome series of what to do with a 2x4's hundreds of videos then goto 2x6 and its a whole new world and its so cheap.
    remember everything does not need to be turned on a lathe, scroll saw is even better, its great
    art is a wonderful thing it releases the mind from the normal and it makes you think outside the box.
    and its not difficult to make 50k a year doing it.
    you look at a blank piece of wood and you think of something new to make of it and your brain explodes with excitement, now thats a great time and what life is truly all about.

      Used properly Tealights should not be a fire hazard. The tea lights I've seen come in their own metal container, so should not set the wooden holder alight. Also you should never leave ANY burning candles unattended.

      Buy ten cars when you get rich. Remember to change your car's oil!
      The car is in posession of the oil. Therefore it's the car's oil.
