I have often wondered what the Economic viability would be like making boutique saws and other small hand tools. In today's market.
I know we have three well know hand tool makers here in Australia. That I know of, plus a host from os.
And who all seem too do a ton of work promoting there lines of tools and we'll done to them.
So there must be a market there .
But it is a market for luxury goods to, which can fluctuate quite a bit I imagine .
Now I've never personally brought a boutique saw .
But going by the prices of say a Pax or lie Nelson saw .
If your boutique saws were a little more say $350/$500 for a dovetail or small back saw( I've really got know idea on this one what one will cost)or even more importantly what the market will pay .
Your able to set up and produce say 4/6 saws a week and more importantly move than on sell them.
This I personally think would be the hardest point .
Yes I know that may seem a lot of saws to make .
But I think maybe possibly if your smart about the way you work ie set up tool and do twenty operations before moving on to your next task.
And you have low over heads to help
What's everyone else's view on this ??
Just my thoughts so I'm not watching brain draining tv
