In this video I show how I make some super strong DIY heavy duty brackets using scrap wood which I'm going to be using for wood / lumber / timber storage. And then I hang from them, naturally. I weigh about 82kg by the way!
In this video I compare the sound levels before and after adding insulation to my garage. I added an insulated ceiling, build a stud wall in front of the roller garage door, and in this video I also frame and insulate the internal walls in an attempt at sound proofing treatment to stop noise coming in from the nearby busy road and limit the sound of my machines for the sake of my neighbours. Plus it should be more thermally efficient - keeping the warm air inside in the winter months and the cool air inside in the summer months.
In this video I build an insulated stud wall in front of my roller garage door and install a secondhand PVC door. This wall will do three things: 1) it will limit the amount of sound coming in to the workshop from the nearby busy road and improve things thermally too 2) it will add an extra level of security to the workshop and 3) it will create a space at the front for timber storage accessible via the roller door. I used CLS timber to create a frame for the wall with studs and noggins and used plasterboard and MDF to clad the wall, plus a
In this video I will be installing and boarding out a small loft space above the ceiling that I just put up in my new workshop, and adding a loft hatch. The loft will be used for storage space for light boxes etc. PLEASE NOTE: If you're looking to do a similar project I would recommend that you take advice and get a structural survey before doing anything like this.

In this video I do some space planning to decide how to layout my new workshop - I cover where to place tools and machines, dust extraction, storage, a new mitre station, and more.

In this video I'll show my shed extension, talk about my dust extraction system set up - what works well and what doesn't work so well, and show you my storage lock up where I store all my wood, salvaged materials and items for sale.
Welcome to my first ever Workshop Tour! I'll be leaving this workshop soon, and as I've been working in it for four years now it's time to show you around my workspace. It's a small UK woodworking workshop (4.1m x 2.7m internally) but with some big-ish machines like the DeWalt DW745 table saw, Axminster White Mitre Saw, Charnwood B350 Bandsaw and Elektra Beckum HC260 planer thicknesser and more. A tour of my workshop extension and garage will follow this video.
