I'm thinking more a person that builds furniture, then sells the completed piece. There's definitely possibility of plan changes part way through when doing custom work, but a solo wood worker either doesn't have to do custom jobs or can take payment (or partial) up front and not deal with it. I also don't consider change requests as micromanagement as annoying as they can be.
If you work for yourself, the only micromanager is you, and that's your own fault.
