So where to from here?
<p class="has-drop-cap">Now that I've more or less finished the Monitor Stand I've got to think of new projects to do. This can be a hard thing to do like I mentioned in my post <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Motivation (opens in a new tab)" href="https://woodenwookie.co.nz/motivation/" target="_blank">Motivation</a>. I have some ideas and I'm looking at testing them out.</p>
<p>The first idea is to create a sellable version of my baby gym.</p>
<img src="https://woodenwookie.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/IMG_0382-scaled.png" alt="Baby gym" class="wp-image-47"/><br/><i>Baby gym</i>
<p>This project was quite fun and once tidied up will be given to my friends for their little one who's due soon. I've made templates for these and will make some more templates for other shapes so that people can customise their own. I've now got some better blades for my scroll saw and some sanding blades as well which will make production a little easier. I will need to pop into <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Resene (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.resene.co.nz" target="_blank">Resene</a> to find out what paints are child safe.</p>
<p>One of my favourite projects was a helicopter I made for Little Wookie.</p>
<img src="https://woodenwookie.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/HELICOPTER-V15-V5.png" alt="Drawing of toy helicopter made in Fusion 360" class="wp-image-48"/><br/><i>Drawing of toy helicopter made in Fusion 360</i>
<img src="https://woodenwookie.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/IMG_2326-1024x1024.png" alt="Prototype of the toy helicopter" class="wp-image-49"/><br/><i>Prototype of the toy helicopter</i>
<p>I designed this using Fusion 360 from a set of plans that I found on the internet. I liked the plans but didn't really like the design of the body. Using a sectioned box style to design the body was quite easy to do in Fusion 360 and when I get around to it I'll do a video on how to do it.</p>
<p>I'd like to perfect each of these designs in order to sell. I think I'll forgo Etsy and try selling on local forum to see if there's interest. If there is then I'll look at setting up a shop on my website.</p>
<p>I'm quite looking forward to seeing if I can pull this all off, to be honest.</p>

The baby gym seems like something that should sell well.  Good luck!

Yeah they look to be well represented on Etsy. Unfortunately that's the problem with Etsy. It's the reason I'm going to try selling on a local app and see what becomes of it. That and shipping fees suck hole. That being said I might be able to sell stuff with a shop app on my website and see how that goes.

Local seems like the most logical start.
