What's on our bench: 🎶

Dan loves working with his helper, whipped out a pizza peal, he got a new dust collector, he loves his 3D printer, and is working on a new youtube video.

Braden is dealing with finished projects taking up space, planning for pop-up shops and craft fairs, optimizing his shipping and signage for shipping and craft fairs, he picked up a kitchen island build, and released a new 3D printed product!

Pete picked up sapele with keith from willard brothers for his adirondack chairs, decluttered his shop a bit by gifting his neighbor some workshop items and moving his lathe into storage for now, and celebrating his 4 year wedding anniversary / 12 year dating anniversary,

Thomas

latelieraboie

Hey! Thomas here with a question about painted nots.

Almost a year ago I made this huge book shelf for pine board and I painted it white as demanded by my client. I even use a primer but last week I went there to discuss a new project and looking at the book shelf I noticed that all the nots were visible as if they absorb all the white paint.

Any idea what happened there?

How to avoid this?

Thanks!

How do you deal with your business being on your property?

Where do you dispose fo your sawdust?

Sarah Goldstein

Rosie's Woodshop

I've been thinking about bringing a lathe to craft shows to do live demos, but i am having a hard time with logistics. Please help!

How do you price out your lasering? By time? Is there a website like there is for 3D printing? Should I just see what it sells for on etsy? 

One example is birth milestones

What's on our bench: 🎶

Dan is catching up on orders and is getting in the teens, right before getting a rush again, Sutton his helper has been a great backup in the shop, and he's dealing with some bad reviews?

Braden got a bunch of slabs from the omah-bros stash, installed the clamp companions, picked up a bunch of tools from a facebook marketplace score, and fixed his CNC tramming issue.

Pete is  getting into the groove of things in the shop, working on trying out a new paint, went and picked up material from Makerstock, and visited Patrick Gensel.

TOPIC: Holiday Prep the set up your shop for success.

Our Holiday Prep List:

1. Plan ahead

2. Set clear goals and priorities

3. Notify friends and family and plan around events

4. DEADLINES - set deadlines and boundaries 

5. DON’T FORGET Halloween, thanksgiving

6. Stock up on materials 

7. Figure out your shipping and fulfillment  - shipping and packaging

8. Research trends and popular items for the holidays - etsy holiday report, erank, tiktok, pintrest, etc.

9. Set up processes / efficiency / Plan out batching of items

10. Leverage social media / online marketing 

11. Abandoned cart / thank you discounts

12. Personalization / holiday wrapping

13. Stock up on items where possible for those last minute shoppers

Questions:

Patrick Gensal

Dan can you give me your exact dimensions, material, and keywords for the C tables and slide tables? k thanks!

Sarah Goldstein

Rosie's Woodshop

These questions all pertain to in person craft shows.

1. So last year I made as much as I could, but didn't have my own shop so I bought things wholesale from some friends and sold them. They sold really well and I'm debating to do them again. What are your thoughts? 

2. Do I go ham and make a ton of pens or learn something new with my new machines? I only have maybe an hour through monday-friday each day and Saturday to do stuff. 

3. Do I have many diverse items with low count or a lot of the same things for craft shows with high count? 

4. Should I premake ornaments with what I think they should say or just have samples and let people pick what they want (but then they are waiting around for it to laser). I can still add customizations. 

5. I over did the craft shows last year and got burnt out and took off January and February, how do I avoid that? I don't think I'm going to sign up for as many shows but I do enjoy them.

What's up my Beautiful Baby Bubbas and Big City Jess! You may not have heard, but Maker camp is coming up soon and I cant wait to give each one of you a big ol Mouth Hug. Since you brought up Maker Camp, here's my Q for your Sweet A's. Is there a random thing or nicnac you ALWAYS pack, regardless of where you're traveling? I'm not talking about regular stuff, like a toothbrush or an extra pair of undies incase of an accident. For example, I always pack swim trunks nomatter what time of year or where i'm going. Just in case theres a lake around or a pool we can break into. Or Something like Braden's security Blanky. Something that everyone doesnt always pack. What's a "Must Pack" for you guys?
