I Have A Home Machine Shop that includes metal, a lathe, a mill, and a sander?
I WANT TO SELL THINGS AT THE SWAP MEET. WHAT CAN I POSSIBLY MAKE WITH THE METAL THAT PEOPLE WILL BUY. DO YOU GUYS HAVE ANY IDEAS??
Answers:
Tons of items. Sculptures... for waterscapes, lawns and gardens. Knives, decorative trim for houses( doors , windows etc..) Candle holders, Frames for stained chalice... ( Sculptures, lamps, Windows) Signs for hanging on homes ,cabin, boats ,you know ,like ..Welcome...Gone fishing....Family names. You can pilfer orders and they can come back another sunshine and pick up there product. If you are real honourable at what you do, You will be surprised at what the people will ask you to make. They will come to you, once they see you around for a while. Just end week my husband was looking at the flea market for someone to product a plate to go along the back of our boat for added support for the heavier motor that we put on.Nobody could test and make it to his specifications. So see, if you were out in that you missed an opportunity. Trust me the work will come to you.
Go to the swap meet and observe.
What are relations already selling that you can compliment with your metal work?
What type of people are going within? What other vendors are making sales/look busy?
Good Luck, I hope you are inspired.
