Can I make my MONEY back? - Starting a business in 30 days

[@BusinessWolf1]

To everyone who feels like him knowing the woodworking niche is an unfair advantage, this is how skills stack on each other to compounding effect.

[@ClokworkGremlin]

Yeah, it's not an unfair advantage, it's basic strategy. Directed sales are way more effective than just throwing a product into the wind and seeing if something sticks. If you *know* there's a niche that has a demand you can fill, you can save yourself a lot of stress and market research.

[@orlanino]

... compounding effect.... Yeah 😀

[@f-empire-8]

I mean... kinda of? By following into his niche, he's also ignoring a huge market for other stuff. I genuinely think it's hilarious that he's promoting a sponsor when he could quite easily just copy their business model :/

[@maddict1045]

I own a fab and design business, started doing remodels when i was young, worked to building murphy beds, renting a shop, now my niche is remodeling and repairing high end RV's. Keep working people, keep learning, it gets better.

[@JimmyHagerstrom]

You need to be at least 30+ to get that insight i believe. How life works in it´s "mysterious ways". There is a reason that young people are confused, moving around to different cities and countries, working odd jobs, starting and dropping out of schools. You get puzzle pieces here and there without ever knowing beforehand or even what kind of puzzle piece it is that you just got. The pieces doesn´t create a picture until you have collected the other pieces needed around that piece. And 99% of the time we dont get the piece we intended to get. People finishes school with decent grades without remembering a thing from the education a year later, but maybe they finally learned to speak in front of people, or got cheated on, or found the hobby that will make them famous 20 years after their demise. That´s why it´s kinda important to focus on what you set out to do. If you go to school to learn electrics, your main and only focus should be to do just that, whatever happens in your life, in 3 years you WILL have knowledge about circuits. That´s very important if you want to avoid a constant feeling of living in chaos. Life wont turn out as you thought, but you will at least be able to work as a electrician. To finish whatever you set out to do is very valuable for your sense of control, freedom, competence and independance. BUT! At the same time. If you "decide" to become homeless at 18 and focus on beer, drugs, girls, wine and poetry for 10 years, that doesn´t mean that you will get less pieces or less valuable pieces. Probably you will gain more pieces that way because your living more intense and risking more than you would´ve otherwise. For most people choice isn´t really a thing though until you get a grasp about this whole puzzle-thing. Life will put you in place. If you´re a spolied emotionally immature lazy brat without emphaty probably you will choose the second path, fucking up your whole life, economy, relationships, health and living like a bum accomplishing nothing until 30. That´s how you learn and that´s why its so hard to learn valuable things from others. Wise words can show you nice finished puzzles but that wont help you with your puzzle. You just have to keep playing pokemon go and put one foot in front of the other. (People who say that woodworking-skills is a unfair advantage haven´t even their 4-piece puzzle done yet. The one they should´ve finished in kindergarden. They should be grateful and impressed about this man sharing his work giving inspiration to others, what he´s doing is a real act of unselfishness. Shure, his video is monetized, but to share your whole businessmodel and process here, that can only be done by a good man. Unfair advantage. Unfair how? They can´t learn about woodworking? Or... things??? They have exactly the same oppurtunitys in their lifes, wheather they have jobs, hobbies or however they life their life, they use things? Right? He has made THINGS for woodworking, just as they can make THINGS for school, skateboarding, computers, their moms, or whatever they have in their life.) I think what they really lack compared to him is fantasy and a creative mind. Creativity is in most ways a skill that you learn and can work on. People often talk of musicians or sportsmen in terms of talent. "Oh! Hear how he plays the guitar! He is so talented! I wish i was born with musicality, i cant even play happy birthday on a piano!!" Like they believe that musicians is born with some sacred musician-knowledge and just instinctivly know about Major and Major scales and 7ths and chordsinversions at birth, their fingers just find their way on the instruments like magic!!" Just like anything else in life you have to put in work to be good at something. Hehe im sorry for my filosophy-essay. I just got genuinly provoked :-).

[@brianvandy4002]

3D printers have been around for a long time. Originally using a 3d printer was known as "Fast Prototyping." The intent behind them is to easily make one off creations as proofs of concept. Once you have your completed design down, you engage a company to manufacture them with injection molding or some other high volume method. It will likely cost more than the filament and electricity are costing you for the parts, but they can make them in seconds compared to hours on your 3D printer. In your scenario, I'd say once your product starts selling and it looks popular, start having them made and sell them on Amazon using FBA, or Fulfilled by Amazon. Then you can stop wasting your time boxing, shipping, and printing and wasting material on print failures.

[@kuni6908]

It's an issue of scale, if you want to produce on a industrial scale 3D Printing is not really the way to go even with the improvements being made. Also don't forget that every time you need to touch a part does cost money, also factory floor space does cost money, just imagine the space and work hours it would take to realize a Lego brick production with 3d printers you probably even would need more investment to get the line up at that scale. On the other hand if you do small, varied series where you would need to retool your traditional machines often (which is really expensive) or machine by hand or with little automation that is something 3D Printing is really good at - also if you start small the upfront investment of getting one or a handfull of printers compared buy industrial machinery and custom tools is many times smaller. (also there are things either impossible to create or extremely expensive with traditional manufacturing ~ complex geometry) 3D Printing is improving fast and the point where it's the cheaper technology is moving in it's favor but if you think of something like Lego bricks I don't think, for the common ones, printing will become a thing. (also I'm counting laser sintering under the printing umbrella, much more metal around in my work)

[@trokt2]

This is how it used to be. Now it's much better for almost anyone to make a 3d print farm. If you need to make products faster you just buy more machines. So it's easier to scale because you don't need a huge investment and much easier and cheaper to operate.

[@kuni6908]

@@trokt2 nah while the ease of scalability is a point there is still way too much manual labor, time and energy involved. If you got a product where you can start small and scale up slowly that approach works but even then 3D Printing is still a boutique and workshop. If you look at something like a Lego brick factory for the common brick sizes I don't see that getting printed in the next decades, it might happen for more rare and complex parts pretty soon but I'm not sure if something like "buy you set online and print it at home" will ever become a thing. (financially if probably makes little sense even with supply chains several times the globe over)

[@trokt2]

​@@kuni6908 I was responding to OP. But regarding legos I think it's better for them to be injection molded. But two people can invent them, an injection molding guy and a normal guy with a 3d printer. Both will eventually send lego bricks to be made in china if they make it that big. But no one starts with thousands of orders. In general most start small and most sell small-scale and boutique items. And it takes way more skill to be an injection molding guy.

It has all been done. You might make some pocket money but ultimately its a waste of time. Nobody really wants 3d printed stuff. They think they do until they realize how shitty the parts actually are. The best way to make money 3d printing is to have a KZbin channel with a bunch of subscribers and make a video about starting a 3d printing business in order to get a sponser that is a commercial 3d printing on demand service. Get a cnc mill/router and make brackets for people out of UHMW or aluminum. You will develop way more useful skills and make good quality stuff.

[@guillermorobledo2842]

[@cuzimpoor7785]

@@guillermorobledo2842 I have worked in manufacturing for quite a while so I have "tried" and am currently "trying". To add to the above, it is possible to make money 3d printing if you are not including your personal cost of labor. In the end it will only ever be a hobby that makes you pizza money. If you were able to scale to the point of making real money, you would be forced to start injection moulding and use more traditional, much faster machine tools. This is the same problem that people who try the on demand T shirt printing gimicks have. If there exists a cheap thing (a 3d printer) that absolutely anyone can use to make something, why would anyone buy it from you? If you sell things that only a small percentage of people can make (like a machined aluminum bracket) then it becomes more feasible. There is someone out there that will make money 3d printing but its like the lottery. Someone is going to win, it just wont be you or anyone you know.

Great video and awesome tip on the printer, thanks for making this kind of video! I've been running my own workshop (mostly working with metals and plastics with lathe and mill) since 2016 now, and since last year I've been trying to transfer some of the production into 3D printing. This is mostly because health and time management issues. At first I hated 3D priting due to long fabrication times and poor surface quality of FDM prints. However, now I've learned to appreciate the 'autonomy' of the process, once the print is started the machine forms the part pretty much independently in the background. So far I'm trying to finalise the products I'm picturing as the spearheads of my catalogue, but that still requires further testing with different filaments, finshing methods and print settings. However, the biggest problem I've had since 2016 is the shipping. I live in a country (next to you, BTW, Finland) where postal service is expensive, and definitely not competitive against European or US rates. Earlier I did items which cost between 100 and 200 Eur a pop, so the customer did not mind extra 30 Eur shipping. But now the 3D prints are something between 10 and 30 Eur, so the 30 Eur shipping cost is becoming an issue for bigger number of potential customers. And I can't offer free shipping either, I called my postal service and asked if I can get free shipping from them. They laughed at me and hung up. Either way, best of luck with your venture!

Funny that you say identical settings. Because it's actually not true. Simply because the speed is also defined by the settings. The difference here is the motion system, weight of the printhead and that it comes with features like input shaping. I'm not saying this printer is bad, in fact i have one myself and I like it a lot, but everything it can do older printers with that motion system could and some can, too.

fushion 360!

[@smellslikeupdog80]

really enjoyed this video series dude

[@pravinpawar-bz4kd]

wow dude i love u, it works!

[@duardyparron850]

Great video, I'm glad you made it work! I liked your boxes how did you come up with your packaging solution? Did you have your boxes made to size?

[@AlexTrusk91]

Loved to see your journey. Would stay with may 'slow one' for starting out though. Just when demands rectify ut i would invest in a fast 3D printer. The multicolored parts look nice but most of the time it's monochrome anyways. I may really follow your footsteps (in another segment/topic than woodworking). Thought of it for long enough i guess. Thanks for this video. ❤👍

Ett tips angående pris på salngadaptern med magneter är öka priset och lägg i minst 2 för 200kr svårt att tro att du klarar att göra dem för endast 70kr med tanke på magneter slitage matieral och tid att lägga ner magneterna

[@TFitz]

I haven't watched it all yet, but wondering why you didn't lay that file on its side...def didn't need supports...guessing you were making a point. Thanks for the content!

[@Zachary3DPrints]

Dude I like your dry humor!

[@popinmo]

I tried to make mine and it was a money pit The prints looked horrible despite the effort i put in the biggest issue is consistency I cannot make decent prints to make money second is cost unless your buying a bamboo labs don't expect prints that are decent and dosnt break down my printers break down every few hours on average and I can't afford to spend 70 to 150k on printers if I need 6 printers that are over 1k that's a lot of money

[@Mrkouman]

How do you calculate the cost of a print ? I know Bambu lab tells you how much the print cost but that’s just how much filament cost based on the roll. So what about cost of electricity? This is not including your special label you had made for your boxes

[@MysticMesh3D]

Awesome video!

[@Ibexed1]

Great video Would you mind sharing the link that you used for packaging, looks smart in black

[@Oneblackcoffeesir]

Amazing video Mate!

[@kajn3206]

I doubt it, I had the same idea, I've been printing for over 4 years now, but it's a problem to find enough clients, it's just not enough for business

[@momphard]

This is great Pierre. I was expecting a not-so-happy ending, but this is really encouraging! Good info. Good video.

[@TheSwedishMaker]

To be honest. I was expecting the same thing when I launched, but obviously there's a market. thanks Dave!

[@brunolundh]

Jag har gjort en kort modell av Festool mounting rails för Systainer3 om du vill ha den och sälja. Borde få plats på någon av dina printers. Är precis under 300mm och ger fullt stöd för den vanliga systainer.

[@TheSwedishMaker]

Det låter väldigt intressant! Maila gärna på [e-mail]

[@tslee8236]

You do save energy and time costs on a faster 3D printer. So you pay more fixed cost for lower variable costs.

[@francisbeland8959]

That's a really nice video! I took the exact same path but instead of buying a 3d printer to make money, I decided to start a store to help paying for the cost of doing 3d printing. Since I'm also a woodworker and selling stuff to help woodworkers and Festool tool owners, I guess you are competition 😂. All kidding aside, this is a good way of making a few bucks. Keep up the good work.

[@tiotube7578]

Which camera do you use. I thought it only supports 0.5 fps

[@gisall8205]

Great video. Question. After creating your own, New, Original part. Is it possible to protect it from being stolen from others, to copy, and sell.

[@XtianApi]

The 90° bracket looking thing that you showed for needing supports, wouldn't you just print that upside down?

[@311baca]

that "error" he showed happened to me as well...when I was very...elevated...and forgot to put the bed plate back in for the next print 🤣

[@benvanson2301]

A quick fun video I’m triggered I have a 3-D printer may be able to do this as well. !!! But it would be so much more interesting for someone to do this as well. If you just shown what you did good and what went wrong in this three weeks now I just have to take you on your word that this is an option but you didn’t tell why exactly this is not working or what can go wrong

[@KareemThaKid]

if ur going for bulk printing try a reality CR-30

[@armandsfreibergs4069]

smart to drop the magnets in while printing?! dont the magnets interact with the print head while printing further?

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

I'm a Senior 3D Character Artist working in games and I make statues in my free time, will be selling some stuff soon but i can say that it's very difficult to make a living from this especially doing everything by yourself (sculpt, print, cleaning, curing, sanding, filling, glueing, priming, painting, packaging, etc) all while people expect prices from China or a 3rd world country. Finishing a print and painting it can take weeks and it's taking away from me sculpting and making more stuff so i think i will only make a few painted stuff and the rest will be unpainted kits.

[@olivermj69]

Tack! Ska definitivt prova detta. Hur krångligt var det med tull och moms?

[@kkaassppaarr4202]

Hey, a bit off topic but you show in your video, that your old printer is an atillery. Is the bambu much better? I think about switching and you would help me a lot, if you cloud compare them in two or more words ^^

[@MikeBeeTV]

I just started a business myself. I also gave myself four weeks to see if it was worth it. So far, in just 12 days and working only in my neighborhood, I've made over $1,700, allegedly. Also no one leaves their cars unlocked anymore which helps/forces me to expand my "business." Most importantly I've made money and taught these rich college kids a lesson.
