re: Becoming a professional woodworking or not

Thanks gang for your input .

Yes Lanwater
it does seem many folks that sell products on places like etsy seem to have products that have a very minimal profit.

even though I have a decent shop and a customer base I many times long for the fun of woodworking as a hobby. In the future, I’m sure I’ll be able to spend more time on projects I’d like to make.

Thanks Jack
we all have to evaluate whether or not woodworking as a business works for us. My post was not meant to discourage those in the business or even those considering woodworking as a living,but just to point things to ponder if you want to take the plunge . If you think it’s time to just be a hobbyist enjoy.

Yes Jim
you have made a vast and wonderful array of projects ,I’ve really enjoyed viewing many of them.

I think you have used a few of terms a person in the WW business should think about,being very satisfying , knowing it may not be the an easy thing to do ,chasing your dreams and being determined and prepared.
