I've thought about this too. I think I would like woodworking, and I like to have a project.
When you learn woodworking, you get to spend 20 to 60h building whatever it is you need, and it only costs you about twice as much as store bought! Of course, that's once you've spent 3 to 10 thousand euros on the gear first.
Start small or at least start so.ething that can be broken into simpler smaller pieces. Not a comment on your skill just that the equipment can get very expensive very quick
You can do a lot with a hand saw, chisel, mallet, utility knife and hand plane. Check out https://www.youtube.com/@Paul.Sellers/playlists starting with making a workbench
