Jordan!!! Dude!! Man your story blessed me!! As a fellow woodworker and builder for the last six years I have been told many times that i should start a business. But I'm torn between a job that I actually love and my love of building!! Thanks for the encouragement and for just being so real and genuine especially on camera!! Keep up the great work! Best wishes from Tennessee!!!

Thank you for sharing your story. I'm trying to start in woodwork but I'm a little scared on how to start since I haven't done any woodwork before, except for general construction. Your story is really inspiring to have my own business. I will become a woodworker and have successful woodworking business.

I know what you mean I started because it was my hobby I had all the tools before a table saw, 14-inch band saw, miter compound saw, spindle sander, 64 inches/9 inch sander, floor drill press, wood lath, shaper, jointer, thickness planer so it was easy to start a business and when everyone starts to know what you can build the order come none stopped

Excellent story and thank you for sharing! You passion is evident! One thing I suggest, keep is small. I had a marine canvas and upholstery business that started out as a hobby and grew to my full time job. I was very busy and thought I needed to lease commercial space and hire people to keep it growing. The only thing that grew was the headaches and made it quit being fun and rewarding. So I sold it as I had no passion for it anymore. My wife and I are doing furniture repurposing, refinishing and do custom builds as well as a side hustle. It has grown but will always be a side hustle even when I retire from my day job in a few years. Don't lose the passion that is very evident you have! I subscribed and I look forward to more of your videos.

@soulfurnitureanddesign I do, but my main profession is a swimming pool service. I own my own business and have a very similar feeling about expending, employees and from doing the work compared management of other people. I think thats where cnc and lasers shine in the woodworking side of things. Those assets dont take breaks and cost pennies to run compared to people.

I am much older than you, by far and I have never done a hard days work in my life. At 67 and able to say that is quite a surprise to many who know me. When they ask how I can honestly say that I tell them, do what you love doing and it will never be work, every day will be a pleasure no matter what. I have recently taken up woodworking as a hobby in my retirement and can say my days are still fun and I look forward to it every day. Liked and subscribed, be watching you and your adventure.
