Buy for the next build.
Work out the cuts, tools and materials you actually need before the hardware-store trip.
SMALL SHOP. SERIOUS POSSIBILITIES.
Start with a $500 budget plan. Learn the cuts. Build useful things. Find your first customers — with three books that put your next move in order.
$5,000 is a monthly gross-sales target explored in the business book, before costs and tax. It is a planning scenario, not promised earnings.

01 / THE EXPENSIVE PART OF GETTING STARTED
The tool you bought is still in its box. The board you cut is a little short. You’ve saved fifty project videos and finished none of them. Give your next weekend a smaller, clearer job.
Work out the cuts, tools and materials you actually need before the hardware-store trip.
Choose one plan. Follow the dimensions. Practice the setup. Let one finished piece build your confidence.
Count wood, waste, fees and your time before setting a price or filling the garage with stock.
02 / YOUR NEXT THREE MOVES
One collection. Three different jobs.

04 / PUT THE BIG NUMBER TO WORK
A sales target becomes useful when you can see the orders, costs and working hours behind it.
Try your own assumptions. Then ask: can I build, sell and deliver this volume in the time I have?

06 / BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Start with The Confident Beginner Woodworker. It introduces tools, wood selection, measuring, cuts, joints and finishing before a complete build. Practice unfamiliar operations with proper support and your tool’s instructions.
No. The beginner book compares starter approaches, including borrowed or existing hand tools and $150 and $500 planning budgets. Your actual costs depend on what you own, the project and local prices.
That is a gross-sales planning target, not a forecast or guarantee. The business book explores the products, order volume, costs and capacity behind it. Actual sales depend on demand, pricing, skill, available time and execution.
It is in preparation. The cover shown here is a design concept for the planned book. The project list and downloadable sample will be added when the finished book is available. Current sample pages come from the two completed books. Cover objects are illustrative artwork.
This is a design preview. The $37 bundle price is provisional. Checkout is coming soon; the final price and delivery details will be confirmed at launch. You can browse the three covers and open sample pages now.
