WOODWORKING PROFITS!
WOODWORKING PROFITS!
If you are handy with table saws, wood lathes, and related
equipment and woodworking tools, a lucrative business is the
purchase, repair and resale of old furniture. We don't mean
just davens or arm chairs. We're talking about everything from
baby furniture and children's play equipment, to antique bedroom
sets.
You can pick up just about anything at garage sales, moving
sales, yard sales, flea markets and sometimes find a bargain at
a second hand store.
Quite often you can clean out someone's attic or garage and take
the "junk" as pay for your services. Strip and repaint the
various furniture, tighten it up, change and modernize, do
whatever is necessary to put it in good saleable condition with
the least amount of time and expense.
Advertise that you purchase old and broken down furniture on one
side of the newspaper and on the other side your ad can detail
the large choice of all types of tables, chairs, baby furniture,
children's play things and other furniture and toys you have
available at bargain prices.
You can start out in your basement or garage, but eventually, as
your business grows you may have to rent or buy a workshop and
sales display area, or set up a retail outlet.
After you become more experienced you can specialize only in
those items that have the best market and make the most money
per unit. Then when you grow large enough, distribute your
works to various sales outlets on a distributorship or wholesale
basis!

FREE ARTICLE .......HOW YOU CAN BRONZE BABY SHOES
HOW YOU CAN BRONZE BABY SHOESJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
You can treasure the memory of your child's first steps forever
by bronzing his first set of baby shoes. And you can do it
yourself relatively inexpensively and easily.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
Your first step will be to clean the shoes thoroughly. With a
damp rag, clean the shoes of all dirt and polish. It is best to
complete the cleaning by rubbing the shoes with a rag saturated
in denatured alcohol. All wax and polish must be removed. Now
allow the shoes to dry.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
Next you will want to arrange the shoes as you want them to be
bronzed. Tie the laces and arrange them properly. Adjust the
tongue so that it touches the sides of the shoe. You may want
to hold the laces and tongue in place with a little rubber
cement. Now drive a tiny hole through the sole of each shoe and
loop a string or wire around it. You are now ready to begin
bronzing.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
To prepare your liquid bronze use bronze, copper or gold powder
and mix the powder with a fast drying spar varnish, stirring
well and adding the powder until you have a liquid about like
paint. Stir to prevent particles from settling on the bottom.
You will probably want to mix a fresh batch of the liquid bronze
for each job.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
To apply the bronze, use a good camel hair brush and paint
shoes, inside and out, with several coats. If there are dull
spots when the liquid dries, it means the liquid has soaked
right into the material and more coats are needed until the
finish is even and glossy. Hang up each shoe by the loop of
string to dry between coats and clean the brush each time.

When the final coat is dry, you can create an "antique" effect
by mixing a little burnt umber or black color in oil with the
bronzing liquid and painting it into the creases of the shoe
with a small brush.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
If you would like the shoes to be heavy and rigid, fill them
with plaster of paris to about 1/2" from the top and let them
dry for several days before starting to paint.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
You will find bronze powder at any good paint or hardware store
or even a printing supply house.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
You will be amazed at the very professional job you have done
using this method. Perhaps you will do such a good job and
enjoy it so much you may want to begin a service doing it for
others. It is really a lovely way to make your treasured
memories last forever.JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ
