How do I set up the component so that the entries can only be edited by the user who made the entry. Admin user would have full access to all entries.

You can do this with the help of your ACL's
Make your user Author and give him EDIT OWN privileges. And it will have your setup ready.

This is very old topic... lol

The answer is correct, but incomplete.
If you want that the others users do not have access, then you must combine with published = 0
(Published wizard + default value:0)

Then when an item is published, the author will still have the only access to edit, and the item will be shared.
Very simple indeed.
Coding is now a piece of cake

Real time saver and great Component Builder tool ! I have been developing with J-Cook Pro Component Builder for several months now and can say with all honesty that this product/service is second to none. The product is feature rich and is being improved and added to all the time. Do yourself a favor if you need to build a Joomla! Component then you can do no wrong in trying the product. You will save on time and effort while being able to deliver your project on time. J-Cook pro does the hard work for you you then have the freedom to fully customise the end result for your own needs. 

One word: Awesome.
