@@KhurosWhat do you mean? At the workshop organisation channel, we organize our workshop so we can organize our workshop more efficient. We need no other channels.
These shelving and infrastructure videos have got me so stoked to do the same to my small hobby room post Wonderfest. I'll be building all custom cabinets with slide out trays to replace all of the store bought drawers full of unknown!
finally caught one of these as it went up. thank you for your continuous unbridled enthusiasm, Adam. It is infectious. can't wait to get back into the shop after letting this one percolate.
@@Pirate_Dave3778 My bro-in-law is from Letterkenny, David! You probably got pissed with him, once, at least! When you were young fellas! He was known as Tony McGlynn back then. Still is, mind. Married my sister, he did. Horny Irish bastard. He's back in the land o' shamrocks while his Mum gets ready to shuffle off this mortal coil - tough times for both, but it happens to us all. But all the same, David, Hi to Letterkenny from NZ! Cheers to you all! (And it's ok you whupped the All Blacks arse last time - we'll revenge ourselves)
Every once in a while I think about the fact that someone out there is going to get Adam Savage on their post-apocalypse zombie survival team and I can't help but be jealous.
I love the glowy little nooks. You’ve mentioned that before (liking the little bits of light in various spots). Makes the whole space inviting and interesting.
I saw Adam’s remarks about Cutting Edge Engineering Australia. As a fan of that channel. I really hope that Adam can Make it back to Australia and visit the CEE workshop. It would be so very awesome. Might even get enough video for a multi-part episodes. My only wish is that should it happen, that content be made available for everyone.
From past shop re-work videos, I've noticed that your wiring for lights, etc on that wall is a complete rat's nest of extension cords. You also set up a power supply for each lighting job, even though it is TOTAL overkill. You could solve 2 issues at once by using one of the 8A 12V supplies you retired from your flexible bench lighting, putting a barrel plug on the outlet, then using an octopus cable to split it to 8 outputs, lighting EIGHT shelves at once. None of those shelves should come close to using 1A. You could either extend the wiring from each shelf to that octopus splitter, or put barrel plugs on a short wire with each shelf, then use M/F barrels and the needed wire to reach to the octopus. This would reduce the number of power supplies you use (in the one video you retired 2 8A, so you could wire the second with a barrel plug to keep as a backup), reduce 120V cords on the wall, and if you put the barrels near each shelf with M/F extensions, it would make it very easy to unplug a shelf if you needed to move it for some reason. You could even mount the barrel connectors directly to a corner of the shelf, though that would remove strain relief compared to a short wire.
And if you're worried about the barrels disconnecting, zip ties to the rescue! Put one loosely on each barrel, loop another through the two (use one that is removable/reusable), then snug the ones on the cords down on that one. Tighten it enough to keep them from coming undone.
Is it too soon to talk about the good things the pandemic has brought us? In any case: Adam filming his own videos. It’s such a perfect style. Just him, and the camera on a creaky loc line.
These are awesome videos, and whilst it maybe more work on Adam vs having a camera person in the workshop (which could end up being annoying), they are more intimate and seem more spontaneous, especially as they are timed around Adam's energy and don't seem to need to be booked weeks in advance. Don't get me wrong, I really like them, time in the shop with an acquaintance who's interested in enough of the same things, but also brings new ideas. Parasocial relationships not withstanding. My concern is that they saw the channel was still doing well with these types of video (which are cheap to get out of the door), and we have lost a lot of the other content and videos from outside of the shop. Is that a cost cutting measure, probably, is that an Adam Savages workload changing thing, possibly. TBH I always thought Will and Norm were not good hosts, giving deference to sponsor of the week but without the ability to bring life to talking points in the same way as Adam, maybe that's just me, even though this whole Tested channel thing was Will and Norms idea! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tested.com Maybe they assumed that this would grow into a much bigger financial endeavour, something large enough to support like an LMG, and whilst profitable, has matured in it's own direction.
Another great video, I think this is the 3rd or 4th build in the last few months in which you have put lights into cabinets. You might want to think of a power delivery system/architecture to save having a heap of wall wart power supplies around your cave. I’d suspect if I was doing it I’d have at least 2 output terminals on the back of each cabinet so you could attach picture cabinets to. There are some interesting Chinese copies of wago connectors that could be useful with this
Wow I literally have a space shaped like this in my shop and my racks of transfer punches and stuff that I've wanted to store there. This timing is perfect for inspiration
Nice Goldilocks solution for things that get "lost" on the shelves because you can't see them. It is not fun playing Hide-n-Seek with tools that don't want to be found!
I won't be surprised if we get to see a complete, fully-furnished, doll house build someday. A future grandkid is going to get the best Christmas present ever! I just hope it has a tiny workshop!
I was just working out in my He-Hut, and I’m super jealous of your workspace. I came to Korea expecting to be here for 2 years, and in an apartment. So I left my tools back in the States. Now I’ve been here for 3 years and have another to go… I got a house with a shop area, and now I’m sucking with barely any tools.
Adam, as a child, you must of loved presenting empty shoe boxes and smaller boxes all along the wall, then you progressed to Lego's and finally your first shelf you built. Fun to be a Hoarder! Hehehe
I know that if I had a brush handle sticking out of the 2nd shelf like that, I'd smack into it every time I moved across, but my basic klutz-fu is unmatched. Fun project!
Think of using small trays to put the small bottles etc on. You can pull them out when accessing the ones in the middle/back. The sushi trays from grocery store sushi/sashimi work nicely (and keep them out if the landfill/incinerator). Enjoyed this video!
If you've seen other videos you'll know a lot of the units are on castors so they can be moved out of the way for when he needs the whiteboard (see, for example the bear costume video). But presumably because it's not something he needs to get to a lot of the time that's why it's okay to be behind stuff.
Adam, I know you like tools, so if you want to go fancy with those solder sleeves, look for a Raychem IR-550 heat gun...its all we were allowed to use for shrinking solder sleeves on electrical harnesses when I was working in aerospace. They can sometimes be a pain to use, and theyre not cheap, and theres no need for it at all since a regular heat gun works just fine, but...FANCY SPECIALTY TOOL!! lol
16:16 i like them things etc how hot you have to get them before the solider flows.. i like them colored bands they really squeeze down onto the wire.. know what u just thought of what if we added a tiny bit of flux on the wires before putting on these heat shrink solider connections *would that help melt the solider quicker or not..?* i know it would help flow the solider of course
I worried I was strange because I like organising my (small) workshop just as much as I like making stuff. Thank you, Adam, for once again proving that this is perfectly normal behaviour & Im not that weird after all! 😂
I like the little bit of table space in front of the shelves. probably not always useful but sometimes you might want to be doing something right there
Millionaire idea. Im no builder but some company should propose to Adam to reproduce his shelfs (typography included), stamp his name on them and sell them.
Just put the extra shelves on top of other shelves, double-up on them. They'll add additional support, and they'll never go missing because they'll always be in the unit where they belong.
I like how the moment Adam mentions a rear facing light, I had the same thought about the diagonal channel that he describes wanting to cut. Although I imagined the diagonal cut to be a lot wider.
The extra shelves, slipped beside the cabinet... How about slipping them in at the bottom of the case, under the transfer punches? That way, they are less likely to be separated from the cabinet, and easy to find if you reconfigure the shelves. You could actually just double or triple up any shelf to stash the extra shelves, so long as that didn't squeeze the space too tight.
I like the way you are constantly improving your storage. Have you ever considered setting up your material storage like a hardware store? Savage Hardware.
I never knew this but Adam would look super cool with a slight pink faded tips on his hair. I think it was the ceiling lights that made his hair look a bit pinkish?
Your videos always make me want to organize my workshop, but i am not alone there.. Another thing i think about is your electric infrastructure... would hate to see something catch fire. If you make a video on electric cleanup and safety that might inspire a few of your followers to do the same thing.
Here is a dumb tip for the persons with a cold garage/workshop, try an old broken refrigerator to store paint/batterys and other things that dont like the frezing cold. Its sealed and isulated
2:42 oh my god, you... you're the one who infected me with that. I was wondering who made me start slapping my self whenever i'm trying to coagulate my thoughts. I knew i'd seen it somewhere, someone... it's you! :))
Yesterday, I was doing a very simple project and I asked out loud, "How many slip lock pliers does one need?" I had two in my hands...and that was not the correct answer. Knees may have been involved. Luckily, the ravens, who know all, do not yet have cameras (or do they?....).
A dedicated workshop organization channel is something I’d love.
sign me up if they are long form videos! haha
Why not just put it all on the same channel like a normal person. Why does everyone need 14 channels?
@@KhurosWhat do you mean? At the workshop organisation channel, we organize our workshop so we can organize our workshop more efficient. We need no other channels.
My inability to hear, unless there are captions *and* I can lip read, is truly grateful for the crisp line of Adam's trimmed moustache ❤

I've NEVER related to a YT video host more in my entire life. Adam lives up to his last name all day, every day.
These are my favorite videos.

Nothing makes me happier than a new ODB , the longer the better, to watch over and over like I've done with the other videos 🎉
6:40 “Don’t Care” - Love It!
I love the ordered chaos of that shop. It's what the perfect shop should be.
I love the glowy little nooks. You’ve mentioned that before (liking the little bits of light in various spots). Makes the whole space inviting and interesting.
I love the Shelf and how the lights are mounted I want to incorporate that into a display self for my early transistor radios !

Thanks for sharing Adam, love your energy & find your shop builds strangely relaxing...
Your editor did an epic job on this one… the Goldilocks killed me!!! Lol
That's our Josh Self!!!
Time stamp? I must've missed it.
Nice Goldilocks solution for things that get "lost" on the shelves because you can't see them. It is not fun playing Hide-n-Seek with tools that don't want to be found!
As I get older, I need more photons ! Great lighting of that space!
Adam is one of my favorite humans on this planet.
Illuminated storage has got to be the next big thing. It makes so much sense!
I love the lights too, Adam! This is a great solution, i absolutely enjoy your creative builds. I learn something everytime.
I won't be surprised if we get to see a complete, fully-furnished, doll house build someday. A future grandkid is going to get the best Christmas present ever! I just hope it has a tiny workshop!
I love this channel. The ideas I get from Adam, my shop is getting a make over for sure. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸
The way the lights were hidden in the shelves is a very elegant solution.
Glad to see I'm not the only one that doesn't go crazy with walnut edges and hand rubbed finishes!
Yes. More shop organization videos please. Lovely, clean and functional design. I would totally purchase one of these small shelves 👍🏻
Fun project. Love the leds. Can't believe the juggling act you've got going on in the background up the walls to the ceiling. 😀

@@JV-pu8kx it the manly version of a She-shed.
You could make anything in a workshop like that! 😍
Adam, as a child, you must of loved presenting empty shoe boxes and smaller boxes all along the wall, then you progressed to Lego's and finally your first shelf you built. Fun to be a Hoarder! Hehehe
I love the LED solution, the angle of the channel came out perfect to illuminate the entire shelf. Great job Adam, as always.😎
Absolutely love the simple but effective lighting solution! :)
Adam's mission, to cover up every bit of whatever is hanging on the wall behind all the shelves, lol.
With the amount of in shelf lighting Adam has going on, at some point it's going to make sense to combine them nearby shelves to a common 5v adapter.
I know that if I had a brush handle sticking out of the 2nd shelf like that, I'd smack into it every time I moved across, but my basic klutz-fu is unmatched. Fun project!
Think of using small trays to put the small bottles etc on. You can pull them out when accessing the ones in the middle/back. The sushi trays from grocery store sushi/sashimi work nicely (and keep them out if the landfill/incinerator). Enjoyed this video!
I appreciate these storage builds. Thanks
11:20 "I feel like you should see this from a better angle." 11:21 New angle is mostly Adam's back. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice, thank you for another video from Spain, please do a complete tour of the cave!!
I think Adam has forgotten he has a whiteboard behind all that glorious storage 😂
If you've seen other videos you'll know a lot of the units are on castors so they can be moved out of the way for when he needs the whiteboard (see, for example the bear costume video). But presumably because it's not something he needs to get to a lot of the time that's why it's okay to be behind stuff.
Storage is key to a organized space but storage can become a obsession & you well find you never have just the right amount
The jump cut zoom on Adam whispering "just right" got a laugh out of me, good job editors!
I finally see that someone knows about the finest machine vice ever made. I also have an original Wilton like yours.
Dangit, Adam....because of you I just bought $120 in LED strips, power supplies, and wire to light up all my shelving! 😂
(Thank you!)
The same lights works great to light up the edges of bookshelves. A dado blade saves a ton of time if you have one.
I wonder about adding a dark stain or paint along the the visible chamfer, so that the illumination of the light strip doesn't flare so much?
Adam, I know you like tools, so if you want to go fancy with those solder sleeves, look for a Raychem IR-550 heat gun...its all we were allowed to use for shrinking solder sleeves on electrical harnesses when I was working in aerospace. They can sometimes be a pain to use, and theyre not cheap, and theres no need for it at all since a regular heat gun works just fine, but...FANCY SPECIALTY TOOL!! lol
Aziz! Light! Thank you, Aziz.
Sweet design for the lights. You definitely need to use that again.
Oh and cos you didn’t, I will. ‘Azeez, lights!!
Here for the workshop, I stay for the ASMR
Weirdo
Some watch for the project.
Some watch for Adam & the dialogue.
Some, for that sweet workshop ASMR.
Your workshop is like a tetris. All things fits perfectly.

Organization separates the hoarders from the collectors.
You know you're an organisation or productivity freak when you rejoice over empty drawers. I relate Adam, I relate.

Lights are great and the ability to see down the back…

The lack of a blade guard on that table saw gives me the heebeejeebees every time I see Adam using it.
I like the little bit of table space in front of the shelves. probably not always useful but sometimes you might want to be doing something right there
11:22 YES THAT'S A MUCH BETTER SHOT OF YOUR SHOLDER. LoL. As always, entertaining.
When Adam was gluing the back his tray of parts was unlatched right behind him. Livin dangerously !! 😂
Looks Amazing, Adam
Adam has a workshop so he can make a workshop. ✔️✔️🤓 I like this a lot
I'll say it for you.

Gonna use that led channel trick in some escape room props for sure.
I love these kinds of videos, so meditative for me
Some day someone will have to move all that stuff from this tiny space. Moving guys are gonna make mad money that day.
With Baltic birch being so expensive these days, what are you all using for these kinds of projects?
Just put the extra shelves on top of other shelves, double-up on them. They'll add additional support, and they'll never go missing because they'll always be in the unit where they belong.
This is an excellent idea
I like how the moment Adam mentions a rear facing light, I had the same thought about the diagonal channel that he describes wanting to cut. Although I imagined the diagonal cut to be a lot wider.
Adam you might have to put in a couple centralized power supplies to run all your low voltage lights.
The extra shelves, slipped beside the cabinet... How about slipping them in at the bottom of the case, under the transfer punches? That way, they are less likely to be separated from the cabinet, and easy to find if you reconfigure the shelves.

One day He's going to be able to say "Show me X supply" and the shop AI will light up all the places that thing exists in his workspace.
You could have notched the lower right corner of the new cabinet, and utilized the entire space between the toolboxes.
