The old timers told me " The fun is over" when you go full time.
No more experimenting, testing the limits of the metal, etc.
"You now have to do what the customer wants."
Well.... what if you found customers that wanted to give you lots
of money for the things you want to build ?  You happy , they happy.
Customer base is the answer.
If you just want to make "J" hooks ( or trivets ) , fine. But even if you
make the best one around,
there is a limit to what they will pay.
But , then again, you have to have the " shop " before you can do the big
jobs.
