- Welcome to my first ever WORKSHOP TOUR video where I'll show you around my SMALL single-car garage workshop.
It's a fully functioning workshop that all fits in a 8 by 16 feet (2.4 m × 4.9 m) space.... HOW does it all fit? Come and take a look around with me.
You can find the majority of the tools, accessories, and wood finishes I use on my AMAZON TOOLS LIST:

Thank you buddy thank you so much I'll check that out my friend. And I appreciate it very much from Doug
Space in a workshop is important- so here is a tip. Instead of mounting your power tools sideways, mount them facing away.
- tales less space
- handle can be grasped, saving grip change.
- you can press the button and see the charge status without removing the tool.
Same can apply to hand tools.
Going by the shadows, you could do with more lighting.
Where is your table-saw blade guard?
I’m impressed how organised your man shed is
Ahh, thank you so much 🙏
Thanks for the tour Rob. Plenty of inspirational ideas. I'm not completely sold on french-cleat as an idea for my workshop, but I do prefer tools to be accessible on the wall and frequently make custom tool holders. Of the back of this I will probably give the cleats a go - who knows! All the best, Karl.
I guess I'm sub # 253, congrats on the new channel - Looking forward to seeing what's next! Cheers!
Thanks so much for the sub. I have lots planned so watch this space 💪
Nice hit the front page!
💪
Great little workshop. If your going to continue to film in there you really should have brighter lighting. To Manu shadows. My shop is only 16x10 and often think about putting an additional 6ft off the side giving me more space in the middle. At the sametime, the smaller space means less going back and forth. I need the space for lumber storage and for my handtool collection. Look forward to more of your videos!
Thanks so much. The space has changed quite a bit since this was filmed. I now have strip lighting across the whole ceiling for better illumination 😀
Wall of tool dreams
:D
What a phenomenal workshop, as someone who has a tiny workspace this video is class. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much, Ryan. You really can do a lot with a small space when you need too 😊
@@whittlebywhittle I'm going to try the dowels in my workshop tomorrow as I'm rapidly running out of space with French cleats on 3 of 4 walls
Thank you for the tour! I love your shop layout- Everything has a place and a reason for being there; you pack a lot of capacity in a small space.
Thank you so much! It’s taken a little while to get how I want it. Infact it’s changed again since this video but I am happy with how much I’ve managed to fit in the space 😊
Nice job Rob! Great set up and I can't wait to see all the great things to come. Keep up the amazing work 👍
Thank you so much, Andy. Really appreciate the kind words :D
Very nice indeed. I'm tuning in to get some ideas for our little shop. Thank you! 😊
You’re welcome 😊
So your workshop is about 3m wide by 6m deep approximately. But it well thought out, impressive ❤❤
Brilliant! What a great use of what is really a very small work space! Impressive and inspiring.
Thank you very much!
Came here and subscribed after receiving your goodbye email👍
Thank you very much, friend 😊
Great use of space and logical layout allowing you to spend time doing work not finding and moving your tools!!
Thank you so much my friend! It’s taken a few goes to get it properly functional. Infact, it’s changed again since I shot this video 😂
Impressive small work shop, very well organized! You earned a new subscriber from a fellow creator. One thing I've learned over the years is the more things mobile the better especially with smaller shops. One idea to getting your planer off of the ground is to build a mobile flip top cart to store you spindle sander on one side and planer on the other with a goal of building the height to align with your table saw outfeed table.
Cheers dude. Appreciate that! I actually don’t run the lunchbox style thicknesser in the shop anymore but I did consider building a flip cart before it went haha
Absolutely amazing workshop.❤
Thank you so much!
nice dude
Thanks so much Michael 🙏
Wow , what a workshop!
Thank you, that’s very kind 😀
I admire you explaining stuff.
Thanks so much 😀
I have probably watched about two hundred shop tours over the years, so I can spot a tidy, organized well stocked shop. For a small shop your meets that criteria. I also spotted a few gems of tools like the metal plane etc. Shows people can work in a small shop well. Have the same work bench also - nice.
Ah that’s kind of you, thank you so much. Good spot on the bridge city tools planes. They’re such a nice addition to the shop. Probably don’t get enough use but super handy when I need them 😀
You are a very hard working boy !
Thank you very much! I try my best 💪
Impressive in how organized and clean your shop is. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I love it !😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much. The workshop has been updated quite a bit since I recorded this but I have a new workshop video coming soon so stay tuned 😀
Always enjoy seeing it in the videos and the tour gave more detail.
Ah, that’s very kind thanks so much 🙏
Very nice video, I love to see other people's work space.
Thank you so much, Jiya 😊
So. Many. Tools! 😱
I do need a few more tho 😛
I have a small workshop and you have made me relook at some areas. Thank you
Oh that’s great! Feel free to share pictures of your shop with me. I like to see how others are doing things
An enjoyable tour, thank you
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Good job I'm a big fan of a small workshop
Thank you very much. Small spaces are fun to try and squeeze as much as you can into them 😊
Really interesting thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
The video quality is awesome !
Thank you very much 🙏
Great workshop Rob, really well organised too. Same size as my workshop but the way you have it setup makes it look so much bigger 🙌
Thank you so much, Grant. Really appreciate the kind words as always. I actually ripped it all out recently and did a new layout as I realised I had too many work surfaces and no space to walk around 😂
Best do a workshop tour 2.0 video soon 😊
@@whittlebywhittle definitely bud
HAY ROB YOUR SHOP IS SO ORGANIZED.RIGHT UP MY ALLEY. I LOVE IT .IM ON A QUEST MY FRIEND I WANT TO GIVE ALL MY FELLOW WOOD WORKERS ON RUclips A SUB. FROM DOUG AKA #433 LOL
Thank you so much #433 😂 Really appreciate that, Doug 😊
Nice video, I enjoyed that, especially as we have a lot of the same tools 👍🏼
Thanks so much Terry. Another DeWalt man 😀
@@whittlebywhittle yes, dewalt, triton, and Bosch pillar drill to name a few
Sub nr 377 hi ^^
I cant wait what you have in plans for this channel ;)
Thank you so much friend 👍 welcome to the clan 😊
I have the same problem 7ft6ins by 13ft but I have a household freezer in there also..😢
Haha always fun trying to maximise your working space. Maybe the freezer could “accidentally break”? 😂
As someone who wants to get into woodworking, what are some good starter projects you would recommend? Also, I love the organization.
Hi Randal, thank you so much 🙏
So I have a video coming out soon that goes over a few starter projects but I would say one of the best things you could make to start out is a simple box. Something like a keep safe or jewellery box.
A very good chunk of projects you’ll come up against starts by knowing how to make a basic box, so things like cabinets, drawers, desks, beds, etc. they’re all just variations of a simple box.
Also good for practicing different joinery techniques so rebates (or rabbits if you’re in the US 🤷♂️), box joints, finger joints, dovetails, or simple butt joints.
You can’t go wrong with a box 📦
@@whittlebywhittle Thanks for the quick reply! Can't wait to see more of your videos.
@@RandalSmithJr You're welcome, Randal. Out of interest, what sort of videos would be valuable for you to see on the channel? I'm still new at this so great to get some ideas from the people following along :)
@@whittlebywhittle A basics video would be great. A lot of larger youtubers do "beginner" videos, but minutes into the video they use pretty niche tools and terms that someone brand new would not have or know.
Hey Rob, I totally love your set up and have really enjoyed seeing the progress since you started!
What are the internal dimensions of the workshop?
Do you have any plans in place to alter or upgrade any part of the shop?
Will definitely need to arrange a trip down to do work on a project together.
Great video too mate!
Thanks so much, Steve!
So a few things have already been upgraded since this video was shot. My centre console is now bigger, on wheels, and has the table saw built in. I've also, added alot more power and proper lighting this which is a nice quality of life upgrade.
Next up is a french cleat wall to keep things a bit tidier and I'm hoping to fully insulate this year if I get the time/money :)
I should stop complaining that my 12x20 shop is too small.....:)
Haha let’s be honest, the bigger the shop the more you fill it with, making it too small. Complain away my man
