Looks good. Just here for ideas. I luckily have the wife on board for turning a spare room into our ready room, just need to start getting more gear. Slowly but surely here and there.
Good stuff and I also enjoyed Randall’s video. While I Do have a “ready room” I’ve mainly tried to keep one or two large transportable containers that have my main stuff organized for either staging or the small possiblity of having to relocate in a moments notice
Very nice Jay! Its easy to show a finished project. How do you go about starting that level of neat and sensible organization? Could you do a vid on that thought process or idea? I struggle my arce off regarding accesible, secure, organization.. it causes problems with the wife cause all she see's is a room of stuff.. and all I see are treasures!!
Thanks! Great question really. I use to keep everything in big totes and it was a pain to pull stuff out every time I was heading into the field. So I was looking at solutions and found the whole idea for a "tactical gear locker" where I saw pictures of wooden gear closets and I thought to myself that I could make one of those. So I made the center wall cabinet and added a gun and ammo locker to the side of it. That led to another cabinet. I also had a bar that I had built 20 years ago and that became the spot that I store the bins, clothes hanging up, etc. It then doubled as a work table too. Then the center table was a wooden gate that was getting scrapped that I thought would make for a good table. I just had to be creative with everything. I did all this while fixing up an area next to it for my teenagers to hang out, watch movies, play games, etc... So it was a win-win.
Nice setup, I just watched Randall’s vid the other day, glad to see your take on it. The chuck box is the video that brought me to your channel; think you’ll take it out an do a vid using it?
Do you worry about all this being near the HVAC unit? When someone comes to work on it (inevitably), they will see all your preps. Word gets around to sketchy people.
I have buddies in hvac and most of them have an Arsenal of their own and want nothing more than to chat about it. Several of them have been given neat collectables from the customer. I don't blame you for wanting to cover it up though. @themodernminuteman2557
If your wife runs your house that's your own fault. I have been with my wife 24 years. No joint accounts. She might complain but she knows it goes in one ear and out the other. I spend my money how I want and she spends hers as she wants of course it helps that are stuff is paid for except for her 2 new cars but I don't make those payments that's her doing.
@@vittoriovuocolo2438 you have to write a book. It will be gold. Wait, Unless your a black guy married to white broad then don’t bother. That doesn’t count.
@@Dread_Pirate_Homesteader I did both of mine here in the states. Local college rotc program hosted them. Lots of colleges and military bases host them.
@@themodernminuteman2557 Cool. Once I dropped at night and lost my glasses. No spares. You can imagine how that went for me wandering around the DZ blind as hell . Lucky one of my bro's had spares that were close to my prescription. 🤣
Very organized and maintained well!
Thanks
Nice set up. Organization is well worth the time saved. If you can't find it when you need it, you don't own it.
I have a readyroom. My wife rolls here eyes but she never complains. I have all my gear hung up and prepared with mags and gear. I love it.
@@unclegunnysack4895 that's awesome!
We are married to exceptional women!@@themodernminuteman2557

That's a very *ready* room 😊
Awesome video jay .I,m always ready to roll 👍🇬🇧
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching
Very well thoughtout room, the staging table is critical for a quick visual before heading out, as well as for the AAR for when you get back.
a lot of stuff to roll out ... great gear though wow and love the stowage , very well organized
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome! I’m working on making the corner of my personal space a ready area.
@@XXLDUDE that's great!
Congratulations on hitting 10K subs!

Nice wood work 😅 and organization
I recommend a in ground cache somewhere close but yet far enough away to restock!
Absolutely
Pull up a seat boys it's Tactical Professor time!
Nice ready room. I'm limited on space so use a wood crate i made .
I like it man. That’s a good area to get everything squared away! Good video brother!
Thanks Jay!

You know I really should do a video on using the kitchen box. We use it enough that I should include its use at our camp!
Nice 👍🏻🙂
Looks great
Thanks!
Nice brother. I don't have a space like that

Good question... I have bed sheets that cover stuff up if we have folks coming to do work. Thankfully it is a rare occurrence.

Good setup. Do you carry extra glasses? I wear one, carry one and had one in my ruck. Just asking. 🥃🍻🪂🫡🇺🇸
@@RedDevil5081 thanks! I do carry a spare set of glasses in my kits. I wear readers so the Hope Depot specials I have several of.
