Liked your video. Be glad when I can get in my shop again. Since I fell my balance is not very good ( I'm 90 yrs. old ) but I love to make things out of wood

[@jascogoods]

Sorry to hear you had a fall but it makes me so happy to know you are still doing woodworking at 90! I hope to be able to still be making things from wood at that age! thank you for your comment and I will pray for you to be able to get back at it soon.

[@briant2259]

Thanks for turning me onto the Minwax stain. It does dry a little fast but get used to it. And they have a ton of colors. Thanks for the project ideas!

[@jascogoods]

No problem, I am glad you found the information in the video helpful. I have used a bunch of the colors and they are great. thanks for the comment.

[@kenspears7159]

Cool Trees and for those stains, try old peanut butter jars. They keep the stain from drying out for a longer time and are toolless!

[@jascogoods]

Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try! i already have a bunch of peanut butter jars I've been saving.

Do you have a 9 to 5 job or only youtube/selling projects? Your videos are very helpful!! That barn red is a very nice color.

[@jascogoods]

Not a 9-5 job but yes a job, KZbin and selling things but I am trying to break free from the job thing and do KZbin and woodworking fulltime. Thank you for your comment.

Ive made xmas trees like that, but i put a wide base to hold a tea cup candle. Everyone seems to love them

[@jascogoods]

I like the look of those. I have seen them on KZbin. I saw one where the guy 45ed all the edges.

Fun svrap wood projects

[@jascogoods]

I was trying to figure out what what svrap was and I even googled it. I was thinking it was some advanced woodworking term then I realized it was probably supposed to say scrap wood!! 😂😂😂 I subscribed to your channel.

[@davidmartin9045]

Can I ask the large tree that you add the post to what size 1 by did you use

[@jascogoods]

No problem, it was 1x8.

[@tobyshew865]

Hulk says "pour Pringle's in hand or in mouth."

[@jascogoods]

HAHAHA I say that too!!

[@courtneyesshaki2220]

What are the blue and purple color stains you use??

[@jascogoods]

The blue is a Minwax Oil based stain called Navy 286 and the purple is a Minwax water based stain that I had mixed at Lowes. Lowes has many colored stains that they don't sell on the shelf but that you can have mixed at the paint counter. There's a little pamphlet by the stains with all the colors.

[@wilburrrrr742]

Im only here for the comedic content. Merry Christmas. 😂

[@jascogoods]

😂😂😂 Thanks brother!

[@jakeedmondson5288]

Enjoyed the video man and subscribed finally. Question about your sales tactics though. I always go back and forth on free shipping for items depending on the size and cost. On the trees I assume you are charging shipping otherwise you would not make enough to cover the shipping cost correct? Thanks in advance.

[@jascogoods]

when I started etsy they really pushed for free shipping. they gave sellers better search results if they offered free shipping and I always heard customers like free shipping better even If your product had a higher price point. So I added the cost of shipping to each tree. it sucked because when people bought one tree the profit was low because of shipping but I made up for it with the larger orders.

[@JerGon97]

What type of wood do you use?

[@TreggLiebler]

He said most were just Home Depot one by pine. He did show one near the end that was walnut though.

[@jascogoods]

Its just the common white wood dimensional lumber (1x2 and 1x4) from home depot. It gets harder and harder to find good pieces in my area.

[@jascogoods]

thanks for answering, you were spot on!

[@cindywoodel266]

Do you use 120 for your belt sander??

[@jascogoods]

Yes i normally use 120. I have 150 too but you can hardly tell the difference.

[@JoeGator23]

Thanks for the video. Any chance you have a total after expenses, shipping and fees? At this point your video could be more educational... but your style is great. Thanks!

[@jascogoods]

I don't really have a breakdown for just the trees because I made a lot of different things and the trees were just one of them. I can tell you I made 9 trees from 1 stick of 1x2. I made $98.91 from those 9 trees. The 1x2 cost from $1.75 to $4.50. Shipping is hard to say because the orders ranged from 1 tree to sometimes 10+ so the more they purchased the bigger the profit. My average order was probably $30 and $5-$8 went to shipping.

[@sandynorman700]

Why do you use stain and not paint?

[@jascogoods]

Its just a personal preference. I like the way the stain looks better. I like to see the wood grain I feel like it gives the tree more character and then if you have several green trees none are really the same.

[@michaelkline4800]

When do you start selling Christmas gear?

[@jascogoods]

I usually start in September but it starts getting really but in the beginning of November all the way till the middle of December.

[@seanpaula8924]

Did you say you used a 1 -X -tree ?? (1x3.. get it? 1x tree??

[@jascogoods]

😂😂😂 That would have been good if I said that in the video! Missed opportunities 😂.

[@SouthSideLimey]

Hey bud, I made the 5 piece trees before from an earlier video. I also made the mountains too. When I stain them, I don't like the cloth I use, result doesn't look as sharp as yours. Do you have a link to the cloth you use or is it locally bought n what exactly is it. Cheers!

[@jascogoods]

Hey brother, I'm so glad you made them from my videos!! I just get the rags from Walmart. They are made by hyper tough and they're in the home improvement section. One thing I do to get a better finish is sand the wood with 120 grit sandpaper. hope this helps.

[@TylerDobbsWoodworks]

What white stain do you use? I’ve tried to use white a couple times and it never looks good

[@jascogoods]

its the water based minwax. They mix it for you at Lowes. I can't remember if this one needed to be mixed or if they have it on the shelf. I normally do two coats but you can do the second coat like an hour later because this stuff dries so fast.

[@TylerDobbsWoodworks]

@ my intelligent self never even thought about doing a second coat 🤦🏻‍♂️. I’ll give that a shot. Thank you sir!

[@Karnalsyn]

Question about Etsy. Do you need to claim Etsy profits as income?

[@jascogoods]

Yes if you make over a certain amount you do. I think the amount depends on where you live.
