    As always great video!!! And as you know I love these chairs! I've paid for most of my shop with them! And have an award on my wall from building them

    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.

    James, I've been watching you a long time and I was beginning to think that you were on a hiatus with the videos... I am glad to see you posting again. I think your content is OUTSTANDING. When you make a build video or a video like this, they are always great and informative. I appreciate the content and all of your effort. Please keep it up! AJ Smith - Jax, Fl.

    @AndrewKleinWW 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Its a really cool design, and I appreciate the time you put into thinking through all the aspects to make it comfortable for everyone who sits in it, and buildable/profitable for every shop that wants to make it, that is not an easy thing to do.

  • @acerjuglans383
    @acerjuglans383 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'm a cabinetmaker. I've never built a chair, but I do know it takes a lot of development to make a comfortable chair, and a wooden chair especially. I'm glad to hear you addressed the issue of getting in and out of an Adirondack chair easily, and redesigned the popular shape.
    Good job!

    Thank you 🙏!!!

  • @sigung01

    I've watched a lot of your videos because I wanted to learn how you approached different things, but in the back of my mind the whole "How can I make money woodworking, how can I market my products?" was there. You've done a fine job here and I'll be buying all of your plans as a result. Thanks!!!!

  • @ericsteff6266
    @ericsteff6266 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    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 really enjoy the narrative, how you market these products, and how you price 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
