Money Making Fence Picket Project

Thank you again and again, Matthew. Not all of us are Michaelangelos of the woodworking world, and your demos through your videos give us access to something attainable and really quite lovely. 🇨🇦

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Wow, thank you!

[@Not_TVs_Frank]

I really like how little waste these projects generate. And they look great too!

[@sweetpeas8206]

Matthew, I adore you. I am 64 years old and have breast cancer. I started woodworking 2.5 years ago to 1) learn something new and keep my mind sharp and 2) to find a way to manage my anxiety from my diagnosis. I started watching your videos 12-14 months ago and with your encouragement, got serious about making things. I entered my first craft fair this past October and sold $225 in 4 hours. It might as well been $1M, because it wasn’t the money. I was over the moon with the feedback I got from customers and vendors alike. It gave me more confidence to keep trying and improving my skills. And that confidence has given me a lot of mental strength to keep fighting cancer for another 3 years. (If I’m clean in another 3 years, I’ll be considered in the clear.) The medicine I take and the therapies I have, make my hands, feet, elbows and ankles stiff and swollen. I have brain fog some days and don’t dare go near my saw for safety’s sake. But the message I want you to hear is this. You inspire me to keep looking forward and learning. You inspire me to try and to experiment. All of that makes me excited to get up and go to my shop in the morning where I can forget about all the medical crap and have fun. Thank you so much! I wish I could hug you in person but for now, I’m sending you a big virtual hug and my sincerest gratitude. Keep making “how to” videos and giving us ideas. Yours are some of the best, if not THE best, on YT! I just bought 4 cedar pickets yesterday. I’ll be in my shop tomorrow giving your latest ideas a try! ❤️😘❤️

“This is a channel of no excuses…”. Great statement Matthew!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Truth! 😬

[@oneacrehomestead]

Hit Hobby Lobby up yesterday and came out of there with a ton of simple ideas. One very simple one was wooden presents. Just a wooden box with no bottom, then a little ribbon stapled on the top and where it wraps under, then add a simple bow. 👊

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks for sharing!! That is a good idea.

[@barriowoodworks]

Modern tree, sleek deign, affordable materials and fairly easy to make. 👌🏽

[@rohbjennings]

The 3M sander and sanding pads are a game changer and will cut your sanding time in half.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

So true. They are a quality product and worth the buy!

[@millarboystrucking2019]

I didn’t see the link for these and can’t find them

[@randomnonsense_1]

I really like the design and simplicity of these trees. The only drawback that I can see is that they are going to be difficult to store for the rest of the year. I would think making the trunk and base removable would make them a lot more desirable. This would make them capable of being stored flat in the off season.

[@klashnacovak47]

Was thinking the same. If the “stem” was cut the same size as the tree and attached with bolts so it could be undone and moved up the back of the tree for storage and using a bolt for attaching the stem to feet.

[@thatgirl6671]

Aww man…. When you took the ends and made another one, ….boom!! 😮 yup I was impressed.. lol. Your the greatest fr fr. Thanks again for giving so much!!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Pretty cool huh?!? I appreciate that!

[@k9kayaks]

Went to the search bar and found it that way Thanks 👍

[@jetah50]

you can use a hole saw, of different sizes, to put ornaments in. a little hole above the larger hole for the string/tree-hanger-hook so the ornament hangs a little bit.

[@TKapner]

I have several left over 5 foot cedar pickets. So I decided to make some of these. I cut them to 48 inches to make the taller trees and used 4 pickets. I made some of the shorter ones at 35 inches as well then used the remaining cut offs cut to 17 1/2 inches with two pickets to make some even shorter ones. Thinking of making some out of one picket for table toppers. I really enjoy your builds. Thanks for your videos.

[@davebaker5327]

If you take the corners off of each side of each board you will get a cool paneling style look

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Nice!

[@stanmondzelewski9253]

Those little trees will work great. I just brought home 38 pallets.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Very nice!

[@shoshana-ro7ki]

Awesome ! maybe even drill holes in them and put in lights, would that work ?

[@truthunfiltered314]

Probably. Or, here's a thought. Use those LED strip lights and line the inside face of the trim with them so that the light is directed toward the center of the tree. Then you could change up the light color and get a different look every evening

[@rickpouley7561]

These are great trees! Perfect..

I made 2 today out of fence picket. I made them 18in tall. Would be cool with inlaid LEDs around molding.

FYI - you can use a jigsaw for the cuts as well. Use masking tape to prevent tear out.

[@haroldbehar9703]

Can I ask what type of wood pickets are you using? I made one of your tutorials out of pressure treated wood and I didn’t like the texture. The only pickets I found in our local store in Florida was pressure treated.

[@FunAtDisney]

I found the same 3M sanding disc pack on Amazon. It cost a bit more, but if you have Prime there is no extra charge for shipping which is only 1 day!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Nice!

[@sandraclark8413]

I want to try. I work on a scroll saw mostly, but next year, I plan on doing projects. I already have a friend who will sell some things for me. I'm a little nervous about starting, but your videos are excellent. I think I might also try to join your group for a while

[@Not_TVs_Frank]

You've got an interesting opportunity, if you want - you can make some bigger projects, but add some details made with the scroll saw. It could be very cool and set your projects apart. Good luck!

[@annapennock4345]

You could add jute twine like garland for pictures, Christmas cards etc.

[@OpossumPiper]

These are great trees of all the wood tree types I believe these are my favorite, with very little waste at all. I have got to build these. Great gifts as well. Also I believe if you bored large hole in the body you could add a few ornaments for another look. Or drill small holes to a strand or two of Christmas tree twinkle light and accommodate the and cover the wire in the back by Cloth or ⅛ plywood or hard boad. Just a thought out of the box. By add these ideas you could add a lot more to the value.
