  #489 - The 6 BIGGEST MISTAKES Woodworking Beginners Make

  Aug 10, 20269 min

  Most beginner woodworkers aren't broke because they lack talent — they're broke because of a handful of mistakes nobody warns them about. Underpricing, chasing the wrong customers, buying tools they don't need, taking on projects that eat 40 hours for $200 profit… I've watched hundreds of guys make these exact same 6 mistakes, and every one of them is fixable. In this video I'm breaking down all 6, why they keep you stuck in the garage, and exactly what to do instead so your woodworking actually starts paying you like a business.

  #487 - How To Make Your First $1,000 Selling Custom Furniture

  Aug 3, 20269 min

  Your first $1,000 selling custom furniture is the hardest money you'll ever make — and it has almost nothing to do with how good you are in the shop. In this video I break down exactly how to land your first paying customers, what to build (and what NOT to build) when you're starting out, how to price it so you actually make money instead of just covering wood, and the simple way to find people who are already looking to buy. If you've got tools, a little space, and you're tired of building stuff for free for family and friends, this is the roadmap to your first real sale.

  Jul 30, 20267 min

  Most woodworkers who try to turn their hobby into a business don't make it past year one — and it's almost never because of their skill level. They're building beautiful pieces but ignoring the fundamentals that actually keep the doors open: pricing, lead generation, and knowing which customers to say no to. In this video, Zach breaks down the exact mistakes that kill woodworking businesses early and what the guys who survive do differently from day one.
