I have tried to make money from woodworking, and I've made beer money at various points in time doing reclaimed wood hipster stuff for friends, but I found it stressful trying to do work any finer than that for clients for more significant money. A friend who is a very skilled woodworker opened a cabinet shop and furniture studio in LA and does well, though he makes roughly 90% of his money on the cabinetry side, and is tied to the luxury residential rehab market.
It may be worth looking at the youtube/social media model of being a woodworker, where you make craft projects and shoot videos of the process and develop it into more of a media business. Make Something, Jimmy Diresta, Four Eyes / Chris Salamone and Modern Builds all may provide some inspiration for a split woodworking/media business model.
