3d CNC carving; Is it profitable

On this video I am taking a look at 3D carving and the possibility of it being profitable by looking at all the cost and time required and comparing it to actual product selling on Etsy.

Good analysis Joel...thanks for posting this video. I'm new to the CNC world and always wondered about some of the details you went over. Best of luck on your upcoming 3D projects.

Thanks. I’m glad you liked it. What CNC did you go with?

@@builtforlife Just picked up the Shapeoko 5 Pro 4x4. Hoping to throw chips in a few weeks.

I'm surprised that it uses that little electricity. Thanks for taking the time to measure it and tell us. Might have to start doing more 3D carving.

I was completely surprised at the electrical cost. I went in to this with the thought that 3D carving was a total waste of time. Now i think there is a place for it in specific applications.

Well the funny thing is once i started posting pictures and videos people started coming out of the woodworks…. I have a waiting list for a product i never planned on making. I guess i really didn’t know what i didn’t know.
