I've been making and selling cedar Adirondack chairs for the last 5 years full time. It's a great business to get into. We've recently moved into a larger shop and upgraded most of our equipment including a Laguna 4x8 CNC. We are currently make 600-800 chairs each year. It takes a while to find your market but once you do the main problem you'll have is fulfilling orders.

Yes I love these types of videos. I like how you describe what why and how you came up with it. Acknowledging a problem, coming up with a solution, and then letting people know and see you’ve found a resolution for said problem/opportunity. I thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with the newbies such as myself. You helped build the inspiration I needed to quit my career of building and upgrading telecommunication networks for 30 years to starting a business woodworking. Sending good vibes to you and yours. I appreciate you! Thank you FYI, I post very few comments, however I was compelled to say something to let you know that even the quite, reserved and shy (on this type of platform)appreciate you and what you do to open so many doors to opportunities and successes that most people don’t even know existed for them.

I would love to see an overview like this on many of the other products you have made, jewelry boxes, etc. Also, it would be interesting to see how you came up with a price for any of these items. I have often found that I either overcharge or undercharge, and rarely hit it right for consistent sales. Thanks for sharing this

Hi James, thanks for the videos and the great Ideas. I first found your channel a couple of years ago and ended up making the Ultimate Table Saw Sled after that. It has been a wonderful item to have around the shop. Last year I saw the chair plans when you first did the video on that and thought it would be a fun and possibly good money making project but didn't get past the thinking stage. When you rereleased the video a few weeks back I realized it could not only be a good shop project and something my family could benefit from (we could use a set of chairs). And with that in mind I bought the plans and the paper templates. I showed them to my grandson who just turned 11 and he and I are going to make the first prototypes. Once we get going we will also be getting the rocker and the kid size plans as well as the tables. Once I sell my first set I plan to as a thankyou to you also buy one of your Thor's hammers. I thought you would get another sale and I would get a great mallet. I currently have a home business cutting glass and fixing windows as I get older I am taking on less big glass projects and since I already have traffic through my shop, having sample chairs would be a good addition to my line. I made my first wood project when I was a teen with my dad.
