Ask HN: How to figure out profitable niche things to manufacture?

1 pointcookiebucket2 comments

Do we have playbooks for manufacturing? From finding products to manufacture to setting up a factory?

Where should one start looking for things to manufacture?

You really need to be more specific, you want to make something small or large? Electronic or mechanical?

As a general advice, look for the intersection of things you love and use yourself and things people want.

There are interesting youtube channels if you need some inspiration:

Knifemaker, from garage to factory: youtube.com/user/JohnGrimsmo/

Kit planes: youtube.com/c/DarkAeroInc/

Mostly mechanical products like gears, automotive parts, etc. Or products like kitchen cabinets, basin, etc. To give you a general idea. On a small to medium scale.

Thanks for the recommendation!
