  • I just got my new dream workshop! This journey all started when I randomly purchased the UK's cheapest #honda #blackbird and rebuilt it from my driveway. But rebuilding motorcycles from your driveway has its limits!! so it was about time I took this channel to the next stage of its life and that is to take you on a tour of my new workshop! This will be a game changer for rebuilding motorcycles

    Nice little workshop. It's much more pleasurable to work on a motorcycle in a comfortable environment & without having to bend over or kneeling on the ground.
    I would make sure that the bench grinder is well away from any thing or even in a specific area as you don't want grinding dust & sparks landing or getting into parts.

    Yay! Way to go, buddy. I just discovered your channel and I've subscribed. I started wrenching last month. In my shed. It is a very tight squeeze and it does break your back, so good on you for leveling up. I love to watch other folk fixing bikes up, I always learn something useful. But I gotta say, it makes such a refreshing change to see someone closer to my level of skill and equipment succeeding. I love the channels of those folk who've got all the gear and decades of experience, but it sometimes leaves me thinking, I can't do that. I'm as happy as a clam to have found your channel and look forward to raiding your previous videos and look forward to the new ones. I wish you massive success =)

    What a brilliant start to the New Year, many congratulations.To be able to keep warm and have so much space in what looks like clinical conditions, no need to spend time decorating and to have it all so close to home mate , I'm really chuffed for you.The bike bench is one of your best items, not to have to crouch down all the while will be a boon and speed up jobs and be easier on your back !.A de-greasing bath is another very worthwhile item , as you have so much available space, and compressor for power tools .I have the same tool chest and lower drawer wheeled trolley and can vouch for the fact they are the ultimate in keeping tools in order.Look forward to 2024 content , not in the driveway but in luxury with a smile on your face !.

I have the exact same Clarke bike ramp, I know what you mean about being heavy, I had just myself and a neighbour to remove it from a van, nearly broke my back! They're a game changer once the bike is secured down, great workshop, one tip is I'd line the drawers with rubber mat then you'll hear no "tool rattle" when using the drawers, oh and nitrile gloves and a bin lol, best wishes for 2024.

I am still a work in progress all the same but who knows maybe one day ill have a well set up channel like yourself.
