| Jared Geddes | Sell Your Woodworking CAD/Drawings Designs Online | 15 Apr 2022 | 00:34:54 | |
Jared Geddes is a Boeing engineer by day and a YouTube woodworker by night. He has been a manufacturing engineer and a mechanical engineer and loves a good design. He uses his engineering background to design and build wooden furniture, structures, and toys which he shares on his YouTube channel (The Evening Woodworker). In this episode, we’ll discuss his woodworking creations, and how he monetizes his woodworking hobby through his YouTube channel. He shares with us how he managed to sell his woodworking CAD models and drawings through his website, and even how he automated the process so that all he has to do is collect payments (pretty clever). We also discuss humanitarian engineering, how to get started into woodworking.
