6 More Woodworking Projects That Sell - Make Money Woodworking (Episode 31)

[@cavers5436]

Hey Brother. I'm sorry for leaving a comment on your videos that I've been watching on the TV in my living room, but I'm recovering from my 1st knee replacement surgery. I hijacked my oldest sons laptop to leave a comment on this latest video of yours. I have to say I was moved to tears several times after listening to the testimony of the blind woodworker who was seeking help, or ideas for improving work flow through his shop.!?! I certainly most admit, after that man's inspiring story, I truly find myself without excuse. Thank You Sir, for sharing such a story, and continuously encouraging your viewership to press-on. Do tell the Mrs. Happy Mother's Day.

[@Wastelandman7000]

I hear you sir. I fell and broke my arm up near the shoulder a while back and its still not working right. Having to put ice packs on it a lot and stretch it to keep it from locking up. So I'm not doing any wood working but, I sure do enjoy Matthew's videos. Hope and prayer you get well soon.

[@alejandrodavid582]

Thanks for all that information the you share God bless you

[@tracie4726]

Therapy therapy therapy! My elderly father had both knees done, separately, of course, and they're better than ever thanks to the physical therapy. He did all they asked of him and more and it sure paid off.

[@suemagruder4455]

Sundays are breakfast, church, lunch and Matthew's videos.

[@johnbrogan6583]

lol

[@michaelgasperik4319]

Hey Matt, I was at a farmers market and found a guy the was selling wooden stuff. I recognized at least half of his inventory from your videos. The mini picnic tables for mustard and ketchup bottles with salt and pepper shakers, and the napkin dispenser table, were both priced at $35 (each).

[@kellydelmas2683]

Have a Blessed Sunday

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

You too!

[@LBrown518]

LOVE that you are constantly encouraging us to believe in ourselves . THANK YOU Matthew Peech.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@irmern]

My head is spinning, just watched two of your latest videos and can't decide which to make first! So much info, thanks so much

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@brendasmith1533]

😂 That's a great problem to have!

[@jslotkoff]

Hey Matthew. I’m a hobby woodworker who really enjoys gifting my large family projects from the wood shop. I watch your videos to get me pumped up, work smart, and have confidence in my woodworking. Thanks again, sir.

[@guybowers9094]

My wife likes hanging baskets for her plants, and I think she would really like one of those. Guess I will need to hit the scrap pile and make her a couple of them

[@Healthcare001]

Hey, you can use those 1/4 inch strips for succulent containers. Everybody loves a nice looking container for their succulent plants.

[@skipanardoross6805]

Just two nights ago I was sketching out (doodling, more like) how to use the small off cuts from pickets. The same type of pieces in the video. The only difference was that I wanted to use shorter pieces for the spacing but with a decorative/unique cut. This series is great. I have binged most, if not all, and look forward to new ones. Big thanks.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

That is awesome!

[@chrisbrown456]

If you’re looking for something to use those 1/4” cutoffs on,how about using them for paper towel holders to attach to the underside of a kitchen cabinet?

[@Wastelandman7000]

Happy Mother's Day to Mrs. Peech good sir.

[@jeanniewright2554]

I always enjoy watching your brain work!

[@lorihughes8873]

Making that abstract art into a shape of a state would do well also 😊

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Good idea!

[@septegram]

Had the same thought!

[@karenbrewer3362]

Me too!!

[@AdrianP247]

Great video Series! Loving it! With those 1/4" scraps, you could probably make little "Painting Easels" to hold pictures or phones/tablets. Like an A-frame, with a hinge-like strut as a stand from the back. the horizontal part of the "A" is where the phone sits. Maybe its been done before, but it would be a use for the scraps...

[@thefrankperspective4247]

That French cleat plant box system’s about to be my attached-to-the-fence outdoor herb garden.

[@Lady_of_Ishpeming]

Love this idea! ❤

[@jdhilger]

Those small cutoffs would work really well to make pallet-style coasters. I made several sets of small coasters like that and they were pretty popular. Always enjoy the videos, keep up the great work!

[@greatgrandpaswoodworking]

You can make very small trellises, 12" tall> for a small indoor planter box. Small vine plants.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Yea! I like it.

[@billchestnutt3621]

Similar answer, Orchid supports

[@carmenevans7651]

My advice if you were making mini trellises is to make the mini planter to go with it and sell it as a set.

[@bug_queen8574]

Omgosh! I made one of the scrap planters earlier this year, never thought of selling them. I remembered my dad making something similar back in the 70's. I drilled holes about a 1/2 inch from the ends and put parachute cord through tied at the top and made a bottom tassel. So easy to do

[@jackswain4931]

Just started watching your videos. They are informative and educational. Take it from a man that worked in a wood shop for 20 years, you have a true talent. Keep up the great work 👍

[@garyaltman2113]

I very much enjoy and appreciate your videos and ideas. My favorite teacher thanks

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

You are so welcome!

[@brendasmith1533]

Yeah, he's pretty awesome.

[@davepillow8478]

Thanks for your videos. I really get inspired by your work. I looked at the $4,000 wall art pic. I saw the shape of Texas. And since I’m from Texas… I gotta try it. Thanks again.

[@loydwalser501]

Idea 4 u. Cut out individual counties in Texas. Cool

[@inthebay]

Always love your videos!…&…all the inspiration…keep them coming!…👍

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you! Will do!

[@daleromdenne]

I love making wood mosaic wall pieces. Great use of all the leftovers

[@butchwhitcomb]

love it MATT you are doing an awesome job

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks so much!

[@CareyLeavins]

I think that your videos are probably the best woodworking videos I’ve seen. Consistently good advice and your projects have a way of inspiring ideas for other things. I for one really appreciate your content my friend. Keep em coming. Thanks

[@scottsbaitsandtackle]

I am the same way with wood. I got a lot of shit everywhere. I am making the condiment and paper towel tables with my scrap right now! I seem to save stuff I know I should toss!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Nice! See, we keep the scraps for a good reason! Lol

[@Corey.Deaton]

Nice video, Matthew! Great ideas and inspiration.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks!

[@Br0ns0n]

Great vid. Thanks for sharing this. So glad I found this channel.

[@emptynestfarms7211]

Thanks for always inspiring us to keep building, it always makes me get out in my shop and build something….

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@jeffk204]

I like all these interesting projects. For the last off cut design, I was thinking you could also arrange them in the shape of the state you live in, or your favorite golf course, or sports team logo etc. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

I like it!

[@joecorley1627]

loved the video. it really jogs my creative thoughts. thank you for sharing.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks!

[@ga5743]

Great channel Matt, hope you reach many viewers.

[@Wastelandman7000]

On the firewood "stool" you could flip it over drill down from the bottom with a forstner bit, use a oscillating tool to finish it off. Use what you got.

[@billmcnair995]

Been watching your videos for years. I deeply my respect your woodworking abilities..! You project confidence to with simple down to earth approach..ps use those scraps make the game kerpluk. For adult size

[@kindnessbuilds130]

Great video, as always! Thanks for the inspiration. Time to go make something!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Have fun!

[@darincrawford7204]

Love your videos; they're super inspirational and encouraging! As for that bundle of 1/4" cutoffs, the most effective way I've found to figure out what to use such "scrap" for is to throw them away; the perfect project will then reveal itself shortly (that's really all it was waiting for 😅 )

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Haha! Yes, that's usually how it goes.

[@stephenbeck5993]

For the hanging planter box, screws and glue should be used on every corner joint. Each corner joint supports the weight of all of the wood below their level plus the potted plant divided by 4. If the plant pot is sitting on 4 bottom slats, then each slat joint supports just the weight of the potted plant divided by 8. The corner joints have at least as much stress as the bottom slat joints, and probably more.

[@larrystone5749]

Thx for sharing Keep building

[@NancyHafler]

Again, Thank You for sharing great ideas!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Of course!

[@simonblooddevay]

Amazing video, thank you, Matthew! You are consistently inspiring, this one I found particularly good. Keep-on keeping-on.

[@papascruffy]

I have lots of firewood, might even be able to use some splits or make some for the legs, pretty cool idea.

[@brendasmith1533]

Thank you for explaining the French Cleat System! ❤

[@Ricks2Cents]

*You have inspired me with the Log Stool. I think 2 Stools & a table would be cool. On the Table Laser Engrave a Chess Board Top. I’ll let you know how it goes.*

[@WomanUnfiltered]

I'm looking at building out a 40' school bus, a Skoolie, or modifying/remodeling a 40' Motorhome as my full time rolling home in the next year. That cleat wall built to fit the few actual walls I'll have will be great to help add more much needed storage. Add a 1/4" plywood bottom & make the rectangles upright to use for holding kitchen utensils. Or make the longer rectangles for holding miscellaneous items in the bathroom or bedroom space. I can see so many uses for the little crate boxes alone. Great idea for sure.

[@lorilozano1884]

Matthew, I hope you see this. I have been subscribed for quite a while, probably a year or more. I was watching this today and saw the subscribe message come up. I clicked on your channel and saw that I was not subscribed! I had this happen on a news site I watch also. If your site is showing fewer subscribers (noooo way), you may want to have folks double check. I love all you do ❤

[@johnbaker1263]

Bunch of great ideas, thank you.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks!

[@JohnnyFarris1]

Thank you for the ideas. I’ve been stuck and those ideas opened up an amazing amount of products. Thank you.

[@natepeterson7145]

I just don't believe people pay top money for some of these. That's so funny. Great video Matt!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Right?!

[@codacreator6162]

People and disposable income will find reasons to go their separate ways… always.

[@scottbyrd2157]

Probably start at that price then drop gradually over time until a trend of buyers begin. We don’t see how many buy, how much for, or how frequently. Most women love that stuff and if they got the money they buy it.

[@WeArePoleGem]

BELIEVE IT!!! Did u know there is a Rolex watch that sells for 500k? I changed how I market the vanities n dressers I flip when I heard this.... we get them for free or cheap and sell for 1000-$2500 to custom bridal shops and wedding venues etc after we make them look like something from a wedding fairy tale!!! We sell none to 3 per month and it is fab... anyone can do it!

[@tonyturnswood]

Great advise and encouragement. Appreciate all you do sir!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@Agent-ii3dx]

Thanks Mathew for these ideas, thumbs up, watching from Uganda.

[@jdavid869]

I like watching your videos and you have great information about the product you make ,please make all videos you can what you are making marketing. I like to follow your passion for your products make myself more interested and more motivated to make my own products. Thanks and GodBless you and your family.❤

[@thomasswenddal772]

Thank you Matthew for constantly being on the hunt for that which is interesting, sells, and can be made by someone with a few tools and moderate skills. Your vids always peak my interest even if I can't run right out and build it. But!, it sure fires me up to want to do more, more than anything else. Not gonna list the excuses because in spite of them, I still want to work in the little shop available to me. That "want" is so therapeutic I can't explain it any better, I just want to work a bit more and awhile longer; doesn't really matter if something gets in the way. Thanks for helping that "want" to see more ideas and keep that "want" beating and breathing and thinking.

[@brucewatson8451]

Another good video Matt. Thank you.

[@WoodworkingTop535]

I always wait to watch your next videos, thank you for sharing

[@HaroldGriffin-p4y]

those little pieces of 1/4 inch non square scrap you have can be used in dollhouse projects for columns on porches, railings, etc. think also about ornament size things. like the roof on a small ornament. cut the angles and they become 3d roof tops for your otherwise flat ornaments etc. hope this helps at least inspire a spurt of ideas for the small pieces.

[@totoguy6333]

U are a good teacher. I have actually started making the log stool as I call it and plan to make it unique by pyrographing it with some animals around it…👌🏿

[@dcruicks1]

Thanks Matt

[@carasmussen27]

Thank you again for a great video full of ideas!

[@robertturner7778]

I simply love your videos. Make scrap wood into cash, make cheap wood into cash, there seems to be no end in making anything into cash. Keep up the wonderful ideas and we'll continue to make the cash. Thank you so much for your ideas and methods.

[@BillLambert-sq9uk]

Love your videos Matthew...keep up the great work!

[@billj5645]

I like to watch all of your videos like this. I'm not wanting to sell items, I have my day job that takes most of my time. I look at your suggestions as things I might be able to make for my wife, or even as gifts for other family members. There might be a lot of people like me who aren't trying to start a business but want ideas for easily making gifts. I've seen that Pentel pencil hanging from your hat in numerous videos- that is my favorite pencil for general use. I started using 0.5mm mechanical pencils long ago but the lead is somewhat fragile. I started using 0.7mm pencils because the lead doesn't break as easily, then I discovered the 0.9mm models so now that's what I prefer to use and I have at least 3 of them around my desk.

[@Marjax]

Your 1/4 can make plant markers/label picks and growing stakes

[@Lady_of_Ishpeming]

Hi Matthew 👋! I have a suggestion for your bundle of scrap wood. You could make a planter pot cover. ▪︎Find a planter pot (ex. Urn insert pot) ▪︎Cut pieces to the height of the pot or just above. (Cut enough to go around the outside of the pot) ▪︎Drill holes at the top and bottom through the sides of your sticks large enough to fit a piece of string or elastic cord through. ▪︎Tie them around your pot. Paint/stain if desired. I hope to see you try this! -------------------------‐‐----------------------- 🤔 💭 Have you ever tried/used wooden nails? You use them with a pneumatic tool.

[@brendasmith1533]

Loved this video!

[@fernandochacon8145]

thanks' for your great ideas

[@mrmanu20121]

Awesome ideas thank you

[@justinpepin6706]

great video, im going to make some hanging baskets this weekend from pallet wood

[@DaraHijazi]

Thanks, interesting projects 👍🏻

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thanks!

[@DavidBoston-rx2yi]

You’re great!! Thank you…

[@RayneChantel]

Please make one!! I'd love to see that. It would look good as a plant stand too.

[@thedoorguycharlie]

Love the small's content. I made that nesting board out of cherry a year and a half ago for my father in law. After dropping them off the next week I was at a customers house measuring some doors. He had a lot of wooden accents in his home that I stopped to check out. I mentioned the boards and he wanted to see a picture. He looks at the picture on my phone and asks how much I was getting for them. Told him $160. He was quite... then says "I'll take 4". COULD NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

[@Wastelandman7000]

Rock on!

[@dkthemanwonder]

You could use those scraps to make pallets!!! Pallet coasters, trivets etc!!!!

[@ChrisStCyr-gnt7]

Log table…sawz all and chisel. Just a chisel also an option.

[@febeomnibeepboop6367]

bit late but im sure you still have scraps or made new. build a lantern with the scraps. a oscillating multitool is best for that log stool thing. save and effective

[@barbblack7825]

Thank you

[@JohnBurleson-er7ij]

use the 1/4-inch scraps for pallet coasters!

[@letypreciado6272]

I would like to see the log table. I have a few myself and I want to try to make some but I’m new to woodworking.

[@jackgunter5413]

You could use those 1/4 inch scraps to make mini trellis to decorate flower pots ,, Just a quick thought

[@dtracy98]

Thanks!

[@brendanfitzpatrick7399]

Peech gets it! great video!

[@joshuapuyear6818]

Nice thing about those small scraps you have there. You could take a few and make a bottom then use several more to make 4 sides to make pencil and pen holders. I have done this several times with and scraps under a 1/2". 3 years ago I made 20 of then in a weekend and gave then out for Christmas. And because of that I had one family member tell me that they had a friend want 4 of them and they were happy to find out I only charged 20$ for them. So never get rid of scraps. Think outside the normal and look for and find things to make out of your scraps

[@mrbeastchocolate]

awesome video. I for one would watch a video about the log table.

[@jaison609]

Maybe use the 1/4 “ scraps for “Sunrays” on a board for some wall art

[@bunny7403]

I think that last item would be great in the shape of the state you live in.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Oh yea!

[@karenbulman6702]

Thanks for sharing

[@leshosey28]

for your scraps make a sunburst with a small circle mirror in the middle

[@damiondifranco2967]

As far as the wood strips, i had some half circle cutouts and I was seeing them as rhe sides of a lid for a treasure chest shaped thing with slats for a planter or something else.

[@DavesCoolCustomBikes]

Bird cage with those scrap pieces

[@codacreator6162]

I’d love to see your take on a raised dog bowl stand. Nice ones can run north of $100. But there are so many designs, I’ve found very few that I really like (no farm house style, please). 👍

[@joshmann9916]

I made a bunch of them 4 years ago called them Romeo and Juliet boards.

[@Bob-xz7xr]

I use my 1/4" cutoffs to make lamps and ceiling lights

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

nice!

[@Wastelandman7000]

On the quarter inch material how about use it to make a center design in some geometric art. set up your pieces in different patterns, color them differently, glue then square them up with one flat side and use it as a center inset or medallion on top of the wall art. The different heights makes it 3D art. Like do a geometric thing, then do a cross or diamond on top.

[@MachineEarth]

You can make pallet coasters like in another video with those scraps.

[@simplyblessed7036]

I bought two slabs of live edge walnut two weeks ago. Im thinking of attempting to make burger shaped cutting boards for Fathers day

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Sounds great!

[@debraroth4724]

Modern wooden hanging lamps. Use odd lengths so they are all different

[@MaddMaxxWoodWorks]

Mathew with the thin cap you have do a Kumiko wall hanging.

[@RobertSiedentopf-nn8pn]

Nice ... been using a French Clet for years ... now I know what it's called LOL 😆

[@Max-xi5gu]

To cut the legs, turn stool over and then use a level to mark around all 3 legs

[@easyspeak101]

Maybe try very old style model aircraft framing but that's more a labor of love than profit!

[@scottbyrd2157]

Dude you’re not approved time off! lol. Do you realize how many viewers was having withdrawals from no video last week? NO shorts don’t count! lol. Good to see your videos back! And yes I was one of those that missed your weekly videos!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

LOL I needed a little break. I'm back at it though. Thanks for the support!
