I make money as a service manager. I spend everything on tools and wood. One of the most effective ways to make money with carpentry is to sell your wood projects. Online marketplaces like Etsy, eBay, and Amazon Handmade are aimed at artisans and artisans, and provide an excellent platform for exhibiting and sell their products.
In addition, you can create your own website or take advantage of social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook to showcase your creations and connect with potential customers. Small-scale furniture manufacturing can be a profitable business and, as far-fetched as it sounds, hand tools are the key. Single manufacturer, small workshop, minimal tools. I live in San Diego, which has an extremely high cost of living, and I also take classes at a local university that has a carpentry program designed to train graduates who make a living working wood.
