    If this video was three days long, I would have enjoyed every minute of it. I have seen a few high end mostly hand tool woodworking shops that put out beautiful furniture and make YT video's out of their work. Having an extra video person come in and put out some of their work I think would more than pay for that person's efforts and be some of the best advertisement available..

    Scott, you and your team continue to knock it out of the park regarding content on your channel. This one is a masterpiece! Your connections to the old school, and awareness to the new tech influence are inspiring. One could describe you as the Hybrid Essential Craftsman.
    Thank you for such good work!

    Thanks Scott for pointing out that "rugged individuals" can join together and not sacrifice their individual qualities to participate as a group toward good and quality work.

    It's hard to pick a favorite segment because there is so many but this has to be one of them. I worked at and owned an automotive repair shop for 55 years and retired. I confess I'm a tool nut still but no expert in anything. I could never have the patience to do what this guy does.But I really admire it and him as a person for what he has done for us. A big thanks to him and to the channel.

    Matt has transferred the team work ability & skills he learned & used in the Air Force and in his current flight Paramedic position to his wood working company & team. All of the team must work together for a successful outcome. Scott really enjoy your video's, always learning something from each episode. Today also playing catch up on You Tube esipodes, was great seeing you with Buckin' Billy Ray Smith, on both videos, also love his channel.

    I needed this video as a pep talk to not lose focus on the team in building a product. Yea, I may be working in software development, but the same rules about building a team to make things still is a major part of formula to turning out a "good" product. Thanks for video.

    Ultimately Matt had the idea for the business as was responsible for sourcing the funding also. However in his story he gave much credit to his team. Many companies are struggling to find labor but they do not recognize the team that they have who put up the hard work to keep things moving.

  • @zephyr1408
    @zephyr1408 Před rokem +2

    I found there are 3 way this business works?
    1 . Move to a larger City where of the 250,000 plus ppl 2% - 4% need a piece and can pay for it w/ o squabbling !
    2. Ship your product all over and bring an attorney on board to create specific contracts between you and the long range customer whereas u can hold their feet to the fire! Otherwise you’re gonna be driving all over trying to collect that piece from the 1 out of 100 customers that’s tries to get the product & not pay?
    3. Do like I do whereas I build certain pieces (tables, stands) and build cabinets plus do finish work!
    ( Really it’s all finish carpentry).
    Otherwise just opening shop and saying “ I build furniture “ you will starve!

    If the panel saw was “production” as referred, you would not need to hold the button down and waste time, in order to move the fence. On SCM, Altendorf, Martin, you enter dimension and go to pick up you panel whilst it is positioning.

    I love seeing these kind of videos but at the same time it makes me feel like a failure. I started my woodworking business in 2004 and been selling and taking orders through the same website since then. Before CZcams I just had to teach myself. Have learned a lot in the past 20 years but now I see how far so many on CZcams have come in such a short time and I'm still in a cramped single car garage and a workbench I built when I was 18, I had no idea what I was doing back then. I still can't figure out how to scale my business and I'm now 48 years old. I do custom projects and signs mainly. Many people don’t want to pay the high price I should be charging.

      It’s all about the grind buddy and sales. It’s one this to be good at woodworking and building a great product it’s another thing to be good at sales and k ow who your customer is and who isn’t. Keep up the hard work
