I know a guy who is an apprentice to a furniture-maker. The teacher makes a very nice living creating high-end, custom furniture. Think about it, for a couple of thousand dollars in materials, you can create a piece that sells for $10,000 to $50,000.
My grandpa was a wood-worker (as a hobby). He turned out clocks, rolltop desks, wine-racks, etc. Everything he built was by request. He had people just about breaking down his door to make furniture for them.
Ture, there is a lot of cheap furniture out there. But there are a lot of people who will pay big bucks for nice, custom-made furniture too.
