HD at 11:50 trimming your profile give a down cut 1/8 bit on a dremel a try. I blew out the backside of a board doing the same thing and this soultion has worked great for me. Thanks for the awesome content I hope the tip helps!
Fantastic ideas, some of them I use in my designs. Most of my revenue comes from cutting boards and charcuterie boards and differentiating your products are key. Love the garlic scraper! I was depressed about your changes to maketember but this type of content is a step up. I’m on board with it now, great job!
There are valid points to charging shipping or not. I struggled with it for a while and here’s where I landed. I think a lot of people don’t realize that “free” shipping is usually built into the price they’re paying. My prices on comps are typically the comp’s price minus the shipping. My products display at a lower price, customer knows exactly what they’re paying for, and they see the price with shipping comes out to about the same as the comp. The lower price, I believe, brings extra traffic. They see the shipping rate and that it ends up about the same as the comp. BUT they now have eyes on my product details and, more importantly, on my reviews.
One argument against is that it hurts sales. It’s a valid point and for some things I can see how it might. For most of what I make, my sales data shows it isn’t hurting a thing. In my opinion and experience so far if you make good products, are realistic with your pricing, and have beyond the pale customer service, the shipping won’t even be a blip on most people’s radar. I have had no trouble making sales in what is a fairly saturated product market. Your mileage may vary, of course.
One other indirectly related thing I’ll throw out there is use your analytics. If you don’t know much about them, learn how. Plenty of resources out there for learning. Those tools are as valuable as the tools in your shop.
Nice launch video. Great ideas for adding to perceived value.
Hamilton, great start to making makers better.
That is an awesome cutting board! those extra features are crazy good!
Congratulations on the first maketember video. It was very informative. Thank you for the info.
These are some great ideas thank you for sharing them.
Awesome ideas - I've had my Onefinity CNC for a couple weeks now and started my CNC business partly because of your videos. I'm looking forward to what else is in store for Maketember!
Excellent tips Hamilton and I look forward to more videos on cutting boards. You are truly a benefit to the CNC community.
Many thanks!
The brilliant thing that I noticed (over top of the upsells) was your cutting board finish container… looks like a regular craft type case without dividers. Love that idea… consider it stolen. lol.
Thanks Hamilton! Great video as always.
Thanks!
Wow, so many good ideas good job
Thanks again for another fantastic video. Still trying to finish up my first real project, have gotten into trying to sell anything, but have had a couple of people ask me already. We'll see, and I'll keep watching and looking forward to your videos and suggestions.
Great content, Hamilton. Upselling 101 and 201. A two-fer.
Many thanks!
Hamilton has always great job super ideas and I really like the size of that cutting board
Its chunky!
Great info Ham!
Thanks, this was helpful. I've wondered what people do.
Great vidio very eye opening Cheers
This one has my attention.
Nice work. Never even considered the adjustable feet for a cutting board.
Thanks Hamilton!
Quick question, what’s your preferred double sided tape for CNC
amzn.to/3Etj1og
This is all I use. Can get the bits a little gummy, though
3d printing is not really good for food. The high surface area due to layer line construction allows much, much more bacterial growth. Also, the extrusion process isn't food safe. Also, the filaments often have additives in them for extrusion purposes that are not good for people. It's just not worth it imo.
Came here to say this. Especially for Garlic Smasher.
Thats great to know! Hopefully one day things will be different. Obviously I'm very new to 3d printing!
This is not entirely true. I do a lot of commercial 3D printing and study material science as my clients have various needs.
Most filament is hydroscopic, but so is wood. The problem is that filaments can have harmful additives that can be toxic to the body. However, there are food grade PETG and PC that are perfectly fine for food save projects. Heck, some are even dishwasher safe.
So all of this is a big ol’ “it depends”. But to make a blanket statement that 3D printing for food products is completely unsafe is not true.
@@Cornerstone_Creative They didn't say that at all. They said, "not really good with food" and then the exact same problems you listed. And when it comes to food safety, that is the more correct answer.
Some interesting concepts. I am struggling what to do about shipping as well. I will be watching the comments….Thanks
We really need to find a better name for the juice groove.
I feel this way every time I say juice groove 🤮
Slop slot
@@HamiltonDilbeckliquid line?
Moist Melange... Blood Gutter... Grease Crease... Crud Flood... Myoglobin Depression .... I tried too hard and they still suck. I'm gonna be thinking about this all day...
Grease Crease
I like it @@SzechuanChickenDog
Love it. How did you line up the second side carve properly? Also, what wood is that?
Just flipped it over and the second path was sized for the board. It didn't need to be incredibly dead on for this specific operation. Nothing like a two sided carve would be. its walnut!
I am torn on juice grooves. I personally hate them and i know the chefs i know hate them. The reason is it reduces the flat cutting area of the board. We also hate feet on cutting boards. The reason for that is without feet the cutting board ia 2 sided. If one side gets really chewed up you can just use the other side. Chefs just throw a towl under the board to keep it from sliding. This all being said, normal consumers really seem to want juice grooves and feet. I think the best way to market boards is to make both of those an option rather than standard.
As far as free shipping im not convinced either way yet either lol. Last year was my first year on Etsy and after the holiday rush sales dropped off. This was to be expected from the research i have done. Even knowing that i decided to try switching all of my products to free shipping and include that in the price. I havent had a chance to do a fair sales comparison because i added my best selling products in September of last year. This holiday season should give me a better idea. I have a feeling it will be a wash for the exact reasons you discussed though. Each person just has a different mindset when it comes to where that cost is shown. One thing i havent liked about "free shipping" though is since you are rolling that cost into the price everyone essentially pays the same shipping. That could be good for you but it could also be bad for the consumer. For example, someone might pay the same living 10 miles from you as someone living 600 miles from you. Anyway, i love that you brought it up and got people thinking :) Yet another great video!
All very good points!
Would a cutting board scraper potentially wear down the surface and required resurfacing more often? Could one be made of wood so it would not potentially scratch the surface? Thoughts?
Not from what I've seen! Minimal if anything at all
that hole act as a juice funnel too?
Yes. That’s how the juice gets to the metal tray.
