Woodworking Projects That Sell - Make Money Woodworking - Low Cost High Profit (Episode 5)

- čas přidán 4. 06. 2022
- Grow your woodworking business with "smalls"! Ready for part 4!?! Often, smaller items are looked over by new builders because they are looking for that one build that they can sell for a ton of money. They aren't considering the cost of the build and the time spent making it. In this video, I discuss the power of smalls. Ultimately any business comes down to profit margins. I'll give you a few examples of how selling items that anyone can afford can generate crazy sales with very little cost of goods sold!
Sometimes we overthink things when the most profitable items we are looking past. Let's change that.

I have found over the yrs......... large items mean more money on sales and more money on the build...... it also means more time on the build and more time on the sale because not everyone at the marketplace can afford large pricey items....... that being said at the end of a normal day I might sell one 1200.00 farm table or bed that will need to be delivered or changed to meet a color....... but I always manage to sell 800 to 1000 in smalls every weekend with no effort or sales pitch............ and most smalls are made with scraps !!!!!........ no such thing as a bad day selling smalls !!
Exactly!!! People don't realize the real cost of building a large nice item. Cost of material, time value of money (Your time is worth x amount), the build, the finish... And every day that piece hasn't sold is a day the your money is tied up. Sadly a lot of people will end up selling it for less just to move it. Smalls move!
What venue do you sell your projects done?
@@johnpreston2786 I have several high end outdoor market events near me...I also live in the Berkshires and also sell roadside in VT and in The Adirondacks...with a side of selling in the white mountains NH. all are high $$ tourist areas
I get scraps from a cabinet shop in Tulsa whenever I can make it over there to get them. Maple, a little walnut, poplar, and oak mostly. I now have 2,000 pen blanks and a bunch of 16 inch scrap pieces to use on lots of stuff.
It’s the crappie fishing of wood working
Thanks for the shout out to my kids and their friend. I wish I could have gotten a picture when their jaws dropped seeing themselves in your video! They leave for Ohio in 3 weeks!
Man I wish you did!!! I'm really proud of all of you. I love seeing kiddos getting into the trade for fun and to earn. So many life lessons in one thing. Tell them I said "Good Luck!!!"
They are in Mt. Vernon, OH right now at the quizzing competition. They're doing well. There are groups from all over the US so everyone there is really good.
Shows the true character of this man, great guy, skills, and info, love this channel, keep it up!
Thank you Matthew, This morning , while walking my dog I spotted a pile of cedar fence lumber in an alley. It's old and weathered, with faded red paint. I thought "Gee, I should make something out of those boards." I came across your channel, and now I'm heading back to get those boards! I'll send a photo when I'm done.
You have the most immediately useful channel on CZcams . I watch a video .... I go build it. Awesomeness !!!
Matthew, I love the smalls for many reasons. I’m starting out in
craft woodworking at 77 but with your inspiration I know I’ll have success. I can make your projects without needing a professional level shop. Already have a number of quality tools.
Thank you!
Louis that is awesome! Welcome to the trade!!!
Any time I get frustrated, watching your videos bring me back to center. Thank you.
Glad to help. 🙂
I just finished and painted some little boxes from the Dollar Tree, and they’re now for sale at a local gift shop for $25.
My God bro, there’s neighbors coming up all around me, so I’m loading up on quality, discarded 2x4s, 1x6s, etc. You’ve really encouraged me with this video series.
My god man! Someone who understands the concept of “give the customer what they want!” Great video!
Thanks JR! Half the things I make I think are hideous. And when I do builds for myself others think they are hideous. We all have different styles.
"Anything the shape of your state"
My state is a rectangle.
... well... pick a cooler shaped state. 😬
LOL snort !
Thank you, Matthew. I not done any wood work since leaving school at 15 to join the Army. I'm now 67 and after watching you video's I'm off to get a jig saw and circular saw, a couple of pallets and get going. Love the video's.
Your 💯 right, no one wants my style, make what sells!
Matt! I come from Slovenia and I started woodworking few years ago making bird houses. Evendough I have health issues(I have status of unemployable person), I love what I do and my dream life goal is to inspire like you, and to never give up on things a person loves to do. And I made bunch of smaller, estetic projects, and sold them. I feel encouraged because People like you give ideas for free and we can all make unique stuff, despite difficulties we all have to face. Please keep on posting, I am sure lot of People love your projects,so I am sending BIG thanx to you and all of followers. Greg
Thanks Greg! And your right. We all have our own battles and its up to us to decide what we are going to do with the hand we were dealt. Stay positive my friend!
Where can I send you idea for community?
I added the email address to the description. Shoot it over!
You are an inspiration in these troubled times . Thanks for your comment.. 🙏
Wish you much success!
Like how you encourage people to not just copy but to put their own personal touch on it.
Matthew, my wife and I resurrected my old table saw and are setting up our garage to be a wood shop. She is totally stoked to get a side hustle going, and we built our first planter box last weekend! Will send a pic later.
We super appreciate the encouragement you bring to us and everyone else recovering from two years of Covid tragedies. Your mindset is desperately needed by so many.
We have stocked up on piles of reclaimed lumber because she keeps an eagle eye on Craigslist free listings. We have torn down peoples old shelving, cut down trees rounds, even old ikea furniture that we are tearing down to build jigs. Anyone who can’t afford much to get started, just keep your eyes on free listings and eventually you wil score an occasional great find.
Keep up the great work!!!
Thanks so much for your encouragement and support and suggestions. LOVE IT! As a single female with limited income I needed this
Lol. I love the blooper reel at the end.
lol. Yeaa people wonder about my real accent... it came out at the end.
I built a trashcan holder for someone for their house..... Messed up now have one for mine and theirs. Build coffee table and end tables for a person wife loved them now have same set in my house
I warned you... lol. I now have to build like 10 of everything.
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking that's how it seems to be. Sell one and build another for the house. Everything I've ever built always seems to find it's way to the house as a prototype before we make more to sell
14:41 Vancouver island FTW!
I accidentally stumbled across your videos. I made an arbor for my wedding a few years ago and had so much interest when I sold it online I ended up building and selling about 30 more. Then Covid hit. 🤬 Just wanted to say your videos on selling "smalls" has inspired me to get back to creating some stuff to supplement my income. Keep 'em comin', brother!
This is SOOO motivating!!!! PLEASE KEEP THIS TYPE OF CONTENT COMING!!
The ideas just keep coming our way, thanks for all of them and the encouragement to do them.
I 1000% LOVE THESE VIDEOS!!!! Your so informative & supportive, it's so awesome to see all the beautiful things that you've inspired or supported ✨️ We need more like you!!! Thank you 😊
Another video filled with great ideas! The folks that sent in pics are killing it!
Wooo!! I want to do this!! I hope I can sell, I’ll test the market and see what happens, I was just seeing a laundry sign I made and was thinking I want to sell. Praying it works for me and all who are trying to get their hustle on!!
Love these videos. I'm a relatively new wood worker and I love making small stuff. Thanks for making these.
I just want to say that I appreciate what your doing!
I have the gumption, the desire and I could use any extra cash for my family. I have huge back problems and can not work. I do have an ample supply of wood. My backyard and my wonderful neighbor who runs a mill. He gives out firewood for free from cutoffs and only asks that we don't sell what we've received. I'm a newbie and have minimal tools. Your smalls projects are right up my alley. I live in Kentucky where people love old wood and cast iron. Thank you for helping your fellow human out, be blessed and thank you
What do you do when your table saw won't cut a true 45
Every time I watch your videos I get inspired, cheers.
Thank you so much Matthew! You are such an inspiration! I feel blessed that I found your channel! I don’t even know you in person and I see you as a mentor!
I started watching you a month ago. Now I bing watch and am amazed at all the great information you give out. Thanks for the videos.
Love they way you break down how to build stuff you see in catalogs 👍👍👍👍👍
I got a deal with a local fence company where they bring me the old fencing and damaged new cedar boards instead of taking it to the dump. I probably have about 5000 board feet stacked up in the barn.
Love the trash bin hideaway , I used a slide out drawer from an office desk with uniformed cabinet door mounted to the front
I'm glad that I found your videos. I'll be starting to build stuff soon. Thanks again.
Keep up the great job
great job on smalls I just love what you are doing.
I just discovered this channel. Love it. It has always been my dream to do woodworking and these small projects are perfect.
Best channel I have seen in a while. Keep up the good work.
I stay busy with smalls fun to do alot of my ideas come out of head Kentucky winters is my project time love watching your channel keep posting👍🏻
I watched this twice. It was twice as good the second time. I might watch it again. 🔥💥💥💥
Thank you! These are all great ideas!
Thank you sir, you are the
G.O.A.T.
Thank you for sharing
Love your projects,videos and your wood working skills..very impressive!!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing 😊
From one Matt to another thank you for the inspiration to start building to make some side money. I picked up a miter saw on sale $99 and found a $10 working table saw on market place. Combine that with what tools I already have and after a few planters I will be making money. I’m moving slow right now because I’m new at this but each step is a step forward.
Thank you again for the inspiration to take this leap.
Update, made my first sale today. Two planters sold. My wife claimed the other two I made. I didn’t even attempt to make her pay. I would consider myself as making money at this point. Thank you again for inspiring me.
You are a great teacher Matthew.
This one was a really good one. I’m just building up a good list with this series….loving the videos! Keep ‘em coming!
No problem, I am definitely taking something from it.
Favorite one so far
Thanks for all these ideas, and for being encouraging. I watched 3 videos last week, by guys, on building a small workstation for a portable table saw. One guy used not 1 but 2 FULL SHEETS of 7-9 ply cabinet plywood. That stuff is $220 a SHEET now. Pallet wood and pickets is more my style, repurpose and reuse where possible, thats what I like. I have a fence gate I have to rebuild, new wood will go into it, but I will reuse whatever is not rotten that comes out of it.
This is an awesome channel and your passion for woodworking really shows. Thank you for sharing.
I make a point to watch your new and rewatch your posts? Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your ideas. Starting out late in life and needing to work from home. You’ve given me some hope in your videos. You are extremely talented so wish me luck.
Always great stuff Matthew. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and information. Many brilliant projects and congratulations to those who sent their pictures of beautiful works
Thanks! And yes there were tons of awesome builds!
You are just right with smalls.
My wife and I love these videos you put out. Keep them coming. Cheers! 🍻
Thanks! Will do!
❤ being bingeing on your videos. Great content
Just found your channel. I absolutely love your videos! I am just starting out and appreciate all your advice and instruction. Thank you and keep up the great work!!
Great video, thank you!
Great, original, content- yet again 👏 Thanks for taking the time to make this great video.
Wow just over a million dollars in sale's for the 💓. Mind-blowing!!!!!
I like this, currently making smaller items to learn wood working techniques that I can do with limited tools. About to start selling, and will be trying some these.
Fantastic video
Looks like a great way to make money for hobbies.
I love your videos and really want to try some of them! Plus you got me when you said KY! Born and bred!
If it wasn't raining, I'd already be working onb1 of these little projects 😂. Love this channel 🤙🤙🤙
As always... AMAZING video!
Just started watching your videos and I love them. Also good to see someone else from Kentucky
Love your videos! Thank you so much!💗
Thanks for a great Channel. I look forward for more
Thank you, Matthew, great ideas, looking to put them into motion soon, just need to get materials!!! But still looking forward to an Adirondack Chair episode!!!
Started yesterday on my woodworking journey side hustle. Turning 1 pallet into 13ish pallet wood shamrock shapes, 10 coasters, 3 other things (pumpkins) Fingers crossed.
You inspired me to start off on stalls and if I choose to go bigger as money becomes available.
Though I’m already struggling just to start off with stains,paint and fancy cuts, I’ll get there.
Man! I love your videos. You always break it down so well. Thank you!
No worries! Thanks for watching!
Great video full of ideas. Thanks man!
Hi Mathew I love your videos keep up the good information videos sir
The more people making smalls the more money kept out of the big store made in china crap, keep rockin it and thanks
I think its awesome what you are doing .you have given me inspiration and a reason to be in the shop.lol God bless you mr.peech and keep up the good work. Look forward to your next video
Great video.
Please keep up the hard work.
Thanks again for the video. Always great advice.
No worries Jeff! Ty!
I love this stuff. Thank you Matthew..
Lovit. Thanks for your video
I've really been enjoying these smalls woodworking projects even though I have no intention of going into selling. The way you show a completed item and then discuss how to look at it to see it's component parts is a very useful way to think for any builder of any kind.
One thing I would love is to see you do a video talking about the importance of building jigs and fixtures for batch work. Maybe you have already done this and I have just missed it. I have worked in industrial manufacturing for over 25 years and from what I have seen mistakes and injuries typically don't happen on the first or second go at a station. The injuries and mistakes usually happen once you start doing large numbers because people get complacent. A proper jig or fixture reduces effort, time and risk of injury.
The way I look at "smalls" is their importance can't be over stated. I don't have a 'gig'. To those who say, 'that's not my gig' , fine. Don't make them. But move over for those of us that are gonna make them. Go back to making your cool cutting boards with a with 110 glue-ups, that takes you 25 days to make, and you might be able to produce and sell 4 a month for $350.00 profit. I'll make twice that in 3hours on Saturday 😎 making my small quick stuff that keeps the bills paid. Thank you for continuing to motivate us.
Excellent thanks!🔥😇
I love this stuff man. 👍
Hey brother I’m also from Kentucky. Just getting into this type of work and I love it.
Hello fellow Kentuckian. Thanks for the support!
Dang brother! I absolutely love watching your videos! You have a true calling for inspiring and encouraging people! As a matter of fact, this weekend I tried making two of the farmhouse style planter boxes. Only problem is, I only have a circular saw to rip the pickets down (no table saw). So... after about 4 hours spent of me basically free-handing, ripping 1 inch strips of pickets down, I had almost decided that this whole wood working thing may not be for me. But then low and behold, I get up Monday morning and watch your newest video and I'm inspired again! Keep on rockin' brother!
The cheap portable tablesaws at harbor freight are worth it for beginning. Certainly better than a circular for ripping.
Love your content Matt
Thank you, great content.
Thanks!
Very cool Matt! I love the variety you shared. Something for everyone. Really enjoying your series and man is your channel taking off! Congrats! And I made the board *woohoo* lol
Thanks Cowboy! And Thanks for submitting your work!
Another great video appreciate your videos. Honest and informative. Thanks from a fellow Kentuckian
Your channel is great...it has really given me some good thoughts in to how to fill my time after some trying times.very good mate love this channel,great tips and ideas.
Really nice content! Love the inspirational support...
Great video really like all the different ideas
we make smalls. always looking fir new ideas!!
Your videos inspired me to start acquiring woodworking skills and getting into the wood business. First order of business is getting my first money back, since I bought a table saw, joiner/planer, and some other stuff. First im gonna make some cross-decorations for on the wall with scrap wood, I will try to sell it for 15/20 a piece if I make it look good. Anyways, 15 of these and I can already get myself some upgrades on my hobby. I'm also very interested in the planter boxes, but I think I'm gonna work on that in the autumn and winter so I will have a huge collection ready during next year's spring. Anyways, thanks for the tips and inspiration.
I had some paver work done recently and the guy doing the work offered to redo a section of my fence for me for cheap. He was going to finish the pavers up on a Friday and come back Saturday and do the fence. I don't work Saturdays so I was going to be here to tell him to set all the slats aside for me to keep. It turns out he changed his mind and hired some helpers and they got the pavers finished and the fence redone while I was at work on Friday. The bad part is I never got to tell him to set the slats to the side and they hauled all of that off to the dump. At least 50 well-weathered fence boards gone. I was so bummed I didn't notice how great the new fence looks 😂
Oh man... wheres this dump located... 😬
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking 😂
A similar thing happened to me. We had a tree cut down. Just white pine, but it was my son's tree he planted in fourth grade. I wanted logs to have milled to make furniture for him. The tree company gave me a date, then got done with another job early one day and came over, did our job and hauled away all the wood while we were working. We called immediately and he was able to bring some back from the person whom he dropped it off at, so all end well.
@@tombloy4244 that was close! I'm glad you got it back.
Another great video!
great items. i love pallet wood.
Thanks!
new subscriber, thanks man. just startin out woodworking this summer so i can spend more time with family need to pay bills! great tips
