Michael, I don't do much flat work so I can't suggest anything there. But are you good at woodturning?maybe I can make some projects on the side and make enough just to make the hobby somewhat self funding.
I usually just make things to give away but I've sold thousands of dollars of these "magic wands" and some other closely related things. I discovered people have no problem paying $40 for a pretty stick.

And the right people have no problem paying $200 for the right piece of wood but you don't usually run into them at the flea market.
