Take baby steps and don't get to the point where you no longer enjoy it. (many others already stated this--very important) I have built many side projects over the years from entertainment centers to full kitchens. The full kitchens seem to be the best for a profit vs time invested ratio.
Perfection takes time and most people cannot comprehend the amount of time needed to create a smaller project and make it look great. The average Joe does not want to pay $1000 for a handcrafted coffee table or some other smaller item. Even though the time it took to make it look that good warrants the price.
Do it at your own pace and choose your projects wisely.
