    My six-year-old daughter made me a cardboard bookmark at school that cost around nothing, works the same, and I have cherished it for decades. She’s now 39 so my bookmark is 33 years old and still works.

      "Most people say you should build things you are passionate about." - Then I agree with most people. But if you need money, do this instead. And when you can afford to build things you're passionate about, do that instead. In my case, my wallet is full enough, so fulfilling my passion is by far the more profitable investment of time. In short: there is no one-size-fits-all homily.

    I've spent time browsing Etsy for ideas and I've seen a lot of items that people have paid what "seems" like way too much for. Well, not everyone shops at Walmart. Not everyone is living paycheck to paycheck. And, if an item has a high value to someone then they'll pay a price reflecting that value.
    Please continue with these videos! It's great to see what can be made with a board or two that someone may value and spark some original ideas! 👍😃

      You'll notice the one he makes is more like the $14, except it doesn't have any ‘doorstep’ for a coaster. The $56 is cut differently, and is 25% off.

    There's literally one on that Etsy screenshot you showed for $14 and only has 6 reviews that's probably a similar quality. They're selling around 6 a month and already have reviews so you've got to try break into a market loads are already doing not to mention needing a $600 saw and a nail gun. Probably easier just to use them skills in a job.

      @adoRED019 You can easily do this with a Hammer, Hand saw and some sand paper just takes a little longer. This is a great way to teach your kids some skills and they or you can make a little money as well. Why are people so Negative and limited in there thoughts. You could even take a little longer, Paint, Carve or change up the design. plus most have bits of timber laying around. I mean if you wanna buy plastic crap and make your home look like a $1 shop feel free.

    I just started woodturning and one of the projects is an Ice Cream Scoop. $25 for the kit, you make a handle, and boom, ice cream scoop. Total monetary investment about $30. Time investment, about an hour, maybe less when you get better at it... Sell for $60-$80. for an ice cream scoop... Who would do that? I bought a $10 scoop years ago, and Im still using it. I dont understand people that buy stuff like this.

    I’m selling to the wrong market. I spend an hour sanding a piece of cedar from 60-1000 grit. Then I hand burn my art onto the surface. I often spend in excess of 40 hours on a single piece.

      This can also be done with a basic circular saw and maybe a clamp. Most curvilinear saws have settings to angle the blade.
      Understand, that when these videos show more sophisticated tools being used they are merely for convenience. May take slightly longer with a basic power/hand tool, but still perfectly doable within a reasonable time frame.

    Since when did bookmarks become passé, now we need a piece of furniture to remember our last page. But hey, if people want to buy silly pieces of wood for silly things, who am I to say otherwise. I do reserve the right to laugh at them spending $50 on it though.

    Remember folks, all you need to make $56 is a piece of wood and thousands of dollars worth of wood working tools 👍.

      Yeah. Only 10 minutes if you have a full production woodshop. Otherwise you're ripping that board with a hand saw

      Literally just 500$ worth of tools shown here, probably not even. And these are tools every man should have.

      You can do this with a handheld saw, a screwdriver, and some elbow grease.

    The product you're showing in Etsy is not the same project you're building here. So this is just dishonesty.

      I imagine there's only a certain amount people will actually spend on a book holder... so the more time you spend on something like this the more money you lose. And no one can compete with etsy sellers. It's a bad idea all around.

    This is very naive to only count the cost of the lumber. The others hidden costs is 10x that. Be honest with your viewers

    • @otallono
      @otallono 7 місяців тому

      Tools don't count because they're an investment, you only have to buy them once if you take care of them. If you're doing woodworking, it's assumed you have these basic tools already.
      For this project you can only count the material used, wood, screws. And of course, your time. Maybe drill bits wear out but I mean.. not with this project they're not going to.

    • @qhadj5387
      @qhadj5387 7 місяців тому

      @otallono your argument is just laughable. How are tools investments? Do you know the definition of it? Can tools appreciate in value? No, they are depreciating assets that must be accounted for. Don't pretend they never wear down. So is your saw blade. How convenient to say "if you are woodworking" like you didnt pay for them?
