6 Easy DIY Woodworking Projects That Sell - Make Money Woodworking (Episode 29)

[@robertbrown5052]

Be Warned!!: Matthew is one of those rare individuals that can inspire you into wanting to go build or make something you never dreamed possible. He is also capable of getting you to snort your coffee (or whatever you may be drinking) through your nose with such force that an Olympic judging panel would give you a perfect score or 10! (Cue Wilson). Thanks Matthew!! Now where’s that cleaning rag . . .

[@suzannef3593]

😂😂😂 💯

[@darkvader2611]

This is literally what I came here to post. Matthew is a wonderful person and the reason I started woodworking.

[@paulettejimmerson3353]

So well written! Also, so true. 😂

[@HuXtheDestroyeR]

Absolute fact.

[@maryglover8283]

[@larrystone5749]

The egg holder you made would look great as a votive holder

[@ladyjanelly]

When you're making the little arches for the ends of the tiny boxes, make it on a bigger piece of wood so the jigsaw-cut is in the middle of the board.Now you've got 2 ends for one jigsaw cut. Do one set of boxes with an arch going up and one set with it going down. Get double the end-pieces for the same work

[@8559jack]

Drop the jigsaw, just use a big paddle bit or hole saw and then saw the board in the middle making both legs. Sand the two legs and you're DONE!

Thank you!

[@pkk6428]

You are a very positive person. You're right about others questioning you, but as you said believe in yourself!!! Have a great day!!!

[@MrKaebee]

I enjoy watching your videos. You are honest and respectful, most important you don’t use cuss word. I’ve seen other videos similar to your show and that person says a lot of cuss words. That turns me off.

[@risalangdon9883]

Love and enjoy your videos on "smalls" and the other less complicated items. You do a great job of making what appears complicated into easy projects. Appreciate you and your channel 🙏 ❤️.

[@J4Julz]

Thanks for the burst of inspiration and self-confidence pep talk!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

of course!

[@JordanOlivier-jt2uq]

This is just a fantastic human! Mathew is the reason I started woodworking..well getting the confidence to actually trying to sell my stuff. Well I started wood working about 15 months ago. Tried to sell a bunch of stuff. Got laughed at on multiple occasions,some people said it looked like I make my stuff out of scrap. Because of Mathew I kept trying,! Long and behold I finally built something people really like and I'm making a very nice second income! Sold 15 in 2 weeks! I'm on top of the world someone actually likes something I built enough to buy it. So wife's happier I'm happier lmao And it's all because of you brother! Ok u getting big now so I hope u get around to seeing this comment it's from the heart! Keep on keeping on brother,!

[@GwenMcConnell-im9xr]

Love watching your videos!! Keep them coming!! I am just a beginner and have alot of pallets to use !!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you! Will do!

[@DaraHijazi]

Agree!! 100%, thanks fir your videos

[@sbffsbrarbrr]

I am completely dyslexic when it comes to angles so woodworking, as much as I enjoy it, can be a challenge for me 😢😂. Seeing how simple a mitered bevel can be was eye opening. Thanks!

[@CeeJayThe13th]

I'm not glad that you have that but I am glad to know I'm not alone 😂

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

You can do it!

[@DeadInside200]

I do appreciate what you said at the end. I am wanting to do things like this, make smalls as a little hobby project thing. I don't necessarily have the intention to sell, I just want to learn something new. Try things out and, if I make a buck out of it, all the better. However, my intentions are just to learn. I tried talking to family who have the tools I would like to use until I can afford my own, but I get somewhat knocked down a peg and discouraged. I got a lot of pallet wood that I broke down and have all these plans for... and I haven't made anything with them since they questioned the first thing I made. I need to just throw their opinions aside and just keep doing it for me.

[@davidlaing7684]

Procrastinating is the Dream killer, don’t let others steal your dreams and aspirations unless you give it to them to steal. The greatest satisfaction is when you make it all by yourself. I’ve been a carpenter and take great satisfaction in all my projects I planned. Just go for it as wood not used can rot so can your dreams set aside.

[@KMF3]

I'm a 60 year old woman and never worked with wood or made anything until a couple years ago. Everything I've made so far has been very rustic and simple designs with pallet wood. Most things sell eventually 😂 and some things I give away 😊. I have limited tools so I can't do some of the things he talks about here. But maybe some day. Do not let others keep you from trying and learning.

[@8559jack]

Don't tell anyone what you're going to do, wait until you did it and THEN tell them what you DID! It's hard to get discouraged when you make the mistakes you make - and you will make mistakes if you do anything - and you can throw it away and try again or rework the piece that has the mistake and possibly make something entirely different which opens your eyes to creativity. Practice makes perfect but practice also makes mistakes, don't forget that.

[@Jimmyjoe5757]

Matthew is one of the best wood teachers I watch… and I’ve seen hundreds of them, Matt thank you for truly caring about your followers ! Love you brother

[@kevinmiller1881]

First thing that popped into my mind with the 4x4 was thats a big crayon. 😂

[@carmenevans7651]

Excellent idea! Paint it up like a crayon! Would have to be longer for proportion.

[@woodsman105]

I was thinking about knocking off the corner edges on my table saw and painting it up like a No. 2 pencil.

[@carmenevans7651]

@@woodsman105 another good idea. You could make it to be an outdoor decor piece.

[@McCartWoodworks]

How stable are those benches going to be without any kind of stretcher or cross bracing to prevent racking? Built how they are they seem like they would be more decorative than useful.

[@matthewcunningham1190]

Happy Easter!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Same to you!

[@jdavid869]

Wow buddy you have come through with more ideas of woodworking, you impressed me with this video, thanks , soon as this hurricane gets over here in Georgia, I’ll start working on some more projects. Thanks again, if you have any ideas on how to make a wood table saw board cutting sled,please share it with us I know it’s different from what you are doing here but it would really appreciate your input on how to make it. Thanks 😊

[@markgaither5635]

Thanks for another great video. My concern when building a bench is making sure the legs are secure. I wouldnt want them to break or come lose when someone is sitting on it. How would you secure the legs on the benches you just showed? thanks

[@leslieapplegate65]

The little boxes look intriguing. I spent yesterday sorting and rearranging all my scrap wood. Lots of it will be perfect for this!! A cute decal on the end would be perfect!! Happy Easter to you and yours!!

[@davidward1259]

For the "bench", use screws for the initial assembly and glue up. Back them out and drill for a contrasting dowel for final assembly before finish. Do this for all the screws as then you can claim "all hand joined - no metal fasteners".

[@karenbulman6702]

I got 4×4 extra wood I found out behind my shed. Thanks for the idea.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Perfect!

I can usually figure most things out, but the one thing that usually stops me is finishing(stain/paint). I think once I do a project that would be easy to finish then I'd get more confidence in doing more. I am in the process of looking to make $$ with wood and finding your channel has given me some hope about projects! Thanks!

First let me say your smalls videos are great. Looking at the last bench you showed we can build much better, plus delivery from Pottery Barn takes up to three weeks to deliver and it is not designed to be sat on. Plus needs assembly. Thank you for these videos.

[@cdixster]

That's what I was thinking. Any side to side movement and those legs will snap off

What sort of places do you folks market this kinda stuff at? I'm on marketplace, been to craft shows, even weekend long shows. I can't get anyone to buy the stuff. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

[@CeeJayThe13th]

For that "nautical decoration" (painted 4x4 w/ rope), it would be awesome if you could figure out how to cut another, tighter angle on the top to make it look even more like a bottle. All I see when I look at that decoration is an abstract representation of decorative bottle and that makes me want it to look even more like that.

Well, gotta go and find another one of your videos to watch!!!

[@RedcarWW]

Love the first box. I'll need to figure out how they rough the box up to make it look rustic. Something I've not tried. Unfortunately for me, I have another person in my town that is producing the same flower boxes I make. As you say with everything, I need to figure out what to do to make them standout compared to his flower boxes. My only reprieve is that he's selling them for $45 unfinished. This year my pricing is $50 for 1 or $45 for 2 painted. Hopefully that is enough to differentiate us.

[@jasonmartin7137]

Matthew has shown how to do the rustic in look in a video. Maybe YT will let me share the link. lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/haWrmaiJnNCJb5o

I called the block game, Kugenga, the Swahili word "to build". It's where Hasbro got the name jenga. I also have some Matthew inspired products. I forgot, i will also have some of the chevron trees in 2 sizes. We'll see what sells.

[@carmenevans7651]

@@damianluby8973 the crowd was sparse and elderly. The original obelisk got the most interest. The new obelisk got slightly less. The kujenga game got a look as did the chevron trees. I may get some obelisk sales from people who requested cards but I'm not holding my breath. I made my obelisks from red cedar. As an old lady I like that cedar is so much lighter than pine.

[@carmenevans7651]

The chevron trees seem to be a consistent seller. I divide the pieces into 3 groups and stain 1 group with black walnut, 1 group golden oak and 1 group natural. This seems to be a popular color combo.

[@papascruffy]

Good stuff as usual! What method was used to attach the legs to the seat on the benches?

[@greenhornadventure]

There are many ways to go about it. Pocket screws. Dowels. Create a round tenon on the end of the leg and drill an angled hole. Drill a screw through the seat into the end of the leg and cover it with a plug.

Hey Matthew. I'm a subscriber and love the channel. I really enjoy woodworking. Do you have a video showing the best ways to sell your products. Online sites are taking up so much of my profit. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks jeff

[@Wastelandman7000]

If I were building that first bench I''d probably create a stringer between the braces. Because honestly, I wouldn't sit on that bench as they built it. Without something to tie the legs together it will eventually end badly. Only exception would be if you used thicker very hard wood that doesn't check much for the top and the legs were mortised all the way through. (which is something they actually used to do back in the old times)
