Thank you for the ideas. I am a 100% disabled vet from a bombing in the middle east and have been teaching other vets how to turn and flat wood working. I provide everything needed to do the woodworking so I try and sell what I can to help us buy what is needed. It is never enough and with your and others ideas it will help. Again Thank you
I live in a poor rural area and have tried to sell but the market isnt here, its simply location i guess. I am a hard core diy'r with everything to work metal and wood, this includes CNCs to a sawmill. I live on hundreds of acres of hardwoods that i cut and mill. I can make a box either with dovetail or box joints out of mesquite and engrave the lid and cannot get $20 for one.i can make the most unique serving board out of a highly figured piece of pecan or hickory that i milled from my own tree, engrave and epoxy fill it and it will sit there with a $30-$40 price tag on it. Yet i see woodworkers on yt and FB reels telling me you can make $1400 from a single home depot 4x4 or a 2x4. Its frustrating to say the least.
Mate, I am probably never going to make any of these projects but I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge. We need more people like you who are not insecure and willing to help others. May you prosper and succeed!
Way back I made 2 items and people kept on asking me to make more. 1=Was a very simple flower box. I didn't even use plans. Slapped it together out of old fence cedar. Spent a few weekends making more for friends and I told others I didn't have the time. But I was asked a lot! Point being you're right. You can make money off of wood working. 2nd= Baby cradles. Not simple, but once you know how, and you make a few, they go together in a little over a weekend. Again, my lord I think I could've made a living selling these. Sold for double my cost and labor. Like the flower boxes, just didn't want to do this forever. Your video runs true for me. Easy stuff sells well, make it out of old pallet wood and people go crazy haha. Cheers all.
I know this is an old video, but I wanted to say thanks for the ideas. One thing that always seems to be missing from these kinds of videos, and this one is unfortunately no different, is giving ideas on HOW to sell the items, not necessarily WHAT to sell. My issue is that I can make all kinds of things, and I'm very creative, but where I fall short is figuring out how to sell them, or where. I have an Etsy store, but that seems like being a needle in a box of needles in a box of haystacks. I have been struggling to find channels (that is to say, ways to connect with customers) for selling the things I make, or getting customers for the things I can make. At any rate, thanks for the tips. I liked the candle holder idea. That was pretty nifty.
My channel has been focused on mostly one of a kind projects, but you challenge me to make a pile of something at low cost and see who will buy them. Excited for spring! Thanks!
Finally, someone who keeps it real. Let's be honest, in my opinion, woodworking is VERY hard, anyone who thinks they can just jump into it is mistaken. I used to build decks, additions, finish carpentry, for a long time (over a decade). I thought going to woodworking would be a smooth transition, and some parts, yes it translates. However, the tools don't. Routers, planers, jointers (money, more money, most money lol) are not something I had to deal with. Dual bevel mitre saws, table saws, coping saws sure. The only one that really plays a big part here is the table saw, which I have 1000's of hours on. With that said, as you say efficiency is key (not your exact words but that's what I heard). If you are going to make a jig for something, best be making a good amount of something. Strange how what we think will sell, vs what actually sells can be vastly different. Things I thought were so great, were crap. Things I thought were crap, end up being top sellers and I just sit there and go 'huh?' lol. Subbed.
It was a surprise as to what would sell until I did it for a while. Efficiency is imperative. Time is money. Have to make the items as quickly, easily, safely as possible.
Safety aside, the first thing that you must do is verify that your machines are zeroed. Table saw blades must be sharp and 90°(perpendicular) to the table top, and must be checked with a machinist square. The blade must be parallel to the miter slot, this is best checked with a fixed sliding guage which can be an adjustable square. If you make a jig or fixture without doing this it will be a waste.
@@JamesBrown-fd1nv I agree! I bought machinist squares and blocks. Very tight tolerance now. As you know, if you run more than a few feet that slop will get you down the road on a 8 or 10 foot board!
Dude! Thank you so much for this video. I finally have the majority of what I need tool wise and the live edge idea is something I can get down with. I've made a few shelves so to speak. It's just an oak slab cut however it's telling me, slight router in the edge and a clear coat. I'm an instant fan of you. Keep it up bud!
This was super helpful. Thanks! I've gotten bogged down trying to make one-of-a-kind things that are too complicated and time-consuming. Awesome stuff, but not sustainable. I can use these ideas and get the wheels rolling again.
With the tea lights you could do six long strips at a angle so you can stack them together and make a hexagon log then cut them into wafers. Can even alternate the wood type to have different color combos and it would cut down on waste wood. But, it would change it from a side to end grain so the will look slightly different.
Love this video - I've just made a batch of the most common 2 x 4 stuff I see people selling and I'm going to see if there's a market for it where I live! I've made a video of it and will document how I get on if you fancy seeing how these ideas sell over the pond!
People often complain about the YT algorithm, but I'm grateful for it, because it introduces me to channels like yours. Fantastic video, you got one more subscriber here :)
Just a thought here regarding your candle holders. Why not cut a hexagon "log" and then slice it up into the candle holders? No jigs required. Good video.
You could rip a 48 inch 4x4 into a hex and slice about 60 of those at 3/4 in.I bet you could cut all of them and forsner each with a setup drill press , in about 45min. Cost of under $15 And less than an hour of work , sell them in sets of 6 for $15.
Fantastic! Share to others what you know! I love it, and do it all the time, I'm a do it all guy, handyman for a better word. When I go to anyone to fix a faucet, install it, or any repair, I try to show the homeowners how they can do it next time. Or ask if they want to help, so they can learn. Some don't want to be bother, others are happy to learn.
good tips, but a lesson from an old man i learned that made it financially in life... he asked me this: Do you know why the rich are rich? and im like cause they greedy? and he said no... we are all greedy... but we aint all rich ... the reason they are rich... is they never ever... telling everybody their success formula.
Dark red western cedar, even when it's knotty, super nice. Paint the outside, but get a mesh bag of cedar shavings and put em inside. Spray lightly with water to make them smelly...
The best advice to make money woodworking is know your market. Do not cast your pearls before swine. If you want to make a good living, you need to target the very wealthy. The middle class is not your clientele.
I know there are many variables as pertains to box pricing but what estimate would you give on the box in your video and also something more elaborate that may take a couple of 8-hour days to make? I had some boxes on display and was offered $25.00 for the one I had the most time in. I told her I wouldn't consider anything under $150.00 for it and she was shocked. I consider some of my boxes works of art and to be heirloom quality.
its awesome have been making things out of slab from the local saw mills for long time now... hve design rough log front porch for folks just by covering the wall on porch with some cleand up lenghts of slab... yer awesome inspiation thank you
Great little video packed with very useful information - thank you! A suggestion for your metric overlays - round to full mm or at 1/10th - no one does woodworking in hundreds of a mm and realistically even tenth is extremely rare.
I ve been doing high end boards for a few years now. Not so sure about the candle holders, If they look nice, I tend to use up small stuff making coasters etc.
Box's are the bees knees. Find small "junk" logs or pieces that have been outside forever. You will find characteristics that will make your box one of a kind. Nobody on earth will be able to replicate it. I just made one riddled with ant tunnels (minus the ants🙂) thought I was gonna get mugged by a mob. Fill checking with black/brown epoxy. All your stuff will be 100% unique and sell like hotcakes. ( or just sell hotcakes)
@@thomasterry1658 really, it depends on the wood, the look, the size, and your time, ect.....it's very fluid depending on the piece. And where you sell them. I'm sorry I don't really have an answer, but they do sell.
We have a little shop in our barn for my wife`s art and my wood work. Our home based business insurance won`t let us sell candle holders. Would love to make em though
Hope this video gives you some ideas for selling projects. I can't tell you how much to charge for these items. That is a personal decision you have to make based on your area, expenses, labor rate, etc.
@Business In Mind I think it wouldn't make sense in the end to get Newtons price. There are simply too many factors, as where in the world are you located, your personal material and tool costs, and the time you personally spend producing the item. Those tea light holders are great though and I guess I would sell 5 for 250kr which is about $40. I don't have the tools to make the boxes, and they would take me too long to build. The serving boards will be great, but the price depends heavily on the size and wood type.
@@businessinmind7411 I suspect he doesn't sell many. It's easy to see what this guy sells... advertisements and merch and the false hope that you're going to make a living selling esoteric knick knacks online 😂
COOL. What's your opinion on using battery powered tea lights, instead of candles? My Bride and I use them in some of our candles but I wonder if the candles would sell better.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of making wood working projects to potential sell. I only have a two more "remodeling projects" scheduled for this year, and won't be starting any new ones until early spring of next year. I'll have plenty of time to make "batches" of cutting boards, jewelry boxes, and walking sticks. I have been stock piling red oak, walnut, cherry, and maple for these projects. So I have plenty of materials that the majority of it was mainly FREE!!!!!
I don't think you spent enough time on finishing your boxes, etc. Please elaborate. Also, for your boxes, did you just glue those half-lap joints together, or did you also use some type of brads?
That’s great and all…. But how much are you getting for these things and where do you sell them? I have no doubt that you could sell those boxes like hotcakes for 10 bucks, but it wouldn’t be worth my time to even consider it for that money. It has been my experience that people won’t pay any decent labor for handmade woodworking stuff.
Awesome video, Billy! Thank you!!! Would you consider creating a video regarding plans? Creating them... Selling them... Promoting them... Things to keep in mind to protect intellectual property? Thanks for all you do, man. I enjoy and appreciate your work.
Interesting, Billy. I don't sell anything but I still watched. As soon as you said hexagon, I thought of Marie's sled. If I remember correctly, she has two videos on them. Bill
why not make a long hexagon ´´stick´´ and then cut them out? only differents is endgrain will be on top. but i think the time saved you can make twice as many
Good video. What prices would these sell for? I see a lot of slabs on Facebook that look perfect for the boards. Wonder if a live edge holder would sell. Anyone know how groesbeck lumber is? Just starting out and don't even have any lumber yet. I do have a jointer and bought a helical cutterhead for it. Still looking for a planer. One suggestion, how about adding a video link when you mention a video to check out.
Great ideas! My BIL is a turner and does vessels, and he may only sell 3 or 4 in a weekend show. He asks like $100 each and I think people want much cheaper options... What do you think? Thanks!

Red cedar is also really nice, just don't stain the inside. When asked why, put a sprits of water to bring out the cedar smell.

With those boxes this , a good fast way is to either use lock miter bit joinery , or old fashioned box joints
Been making boxes out of downed oak tree limbs. The drying process takes forever. I cut it about 5/8" thick and then plane and sand it to 1/2".
It does take a while, but if we always have wood in various stages of drying it's not a big deal.

@NewtonMakes could you use a small CNC machine (like a 3018 type of unit) to create your pieces for small items like a box or those candle holders?
Fine joinery is heirloom quality.

why not make a long hexagon ´´stick´´ and then cut them out? only differents is endgrain will be on top. but i think the time saved you can make twice as many

I wanted to ask how you get rid of your sawdust? My whole workshop is a mess after one project.
Do you have any problems with the candle holders as the candle burns down?
Nope
Good video. What prices would these sell for? I see a lot of slabs on Facebook that look perfect for the boards. Wonder if a live edge holder would sell. Anyone know how groesbeck lumber is?

That's the balance. Charge what you want. The more you charge, the less customers you get, but you also don't have to make as many.

Can you include how much you sell each item for? Sorry if you have already answered this question.
