Build the furniture and charge people to store it in their houses, let them advertise for you also.

Build the furniture, it is a lot of fun! I can do it better than the mechanical part of my truck, it looks like you can do it all!
Here are a couple of non related truck pics of work I have done. An end grain cutting board kitchen island I built for my wife, and a wine room project for a client that will hold over 1200 bottles of wine in a refrigerated room in his mansion.

Seems to me that the illustration with which John accompanies his text would indicate otherwise........

But I've been wrong before!
