re: Becoming a professional woodworking or not

I have been working in wood all my adult life for my living, working in custom cabinet and wooden boatbuilding shops. It has not been the easiest road to travel on, but has been very satisfying. I opened my own studio 8 yrs ago and it is indeed the hardest thing I have ever tried. I believe in chasing your dreams but be determined and beprepared for hard work. Great topic Jim
