I'm starting a small part time furniture making business and have a couple questions about what type I need. Let me first stress the word small. I am a full-time stay-at-home dad with two young kids, and I would be doing this in some of my spare time while they are at preschool. My shop is in my basement and I will be the sole proprietor. I am not going to be batching out furniture, I will most likely not sell more than $10k a year and we don't need this income - it's essentially an extension of my hobby that I'd enjoy. I do however want to do this the right way; I have an LLC and EIN, am making a website, and will also make business cards.
I plan to make custom furniture such as dining tables, benches, coffee tables, desks, bedroom sets, etc. No chairs most likely.
My main question is about liability insurance and whether or not I need it given my circumstances. I will not be installing anything in anyone's home, clients will not come to my home, and I don't see much risk where I would need liability. But I am no expert and wanted to see what others are doing. Maybe I answered my own question when I said I want to do this the right way, but I also don't want to spend money unnecessarily.
I know I need coverage for equipment and I am inventorying everything this week to come up with a replacement cost.
If any other small business owners in a similar situation could chime in with how they have their business structured, I would greatly appreciate it.
