    Organizing the workshop is enough of an idea. Have a 3.5 x3. 5 m garden shack I use but over the winter I turned it into a wood storage. Plenty of work waiting for better weather

    Two shelves by the battery chargers helps keep batteries organized when you have a needs charging shelf and a charged shelf. Each time you are walking by the chargers you can see if they are done and move the batteries to the charged shelf and grab any on the need charging shelf to put on the charger with no questions of is this charged or not.
    With permanent spots for the tools spot lights that will light up the work and not have a shadow of the operator with a switch to turn them on/off near the tool helps a ton. No need to strain the eyes looking for a marking when a spot light or two mounted above would help.

    That under storage idea is awesome. Head room doesn't matter in an office, so it's a win win. I would recommend an L shaped desk when you build. Allows for much more space when computer work spreads out, or for that 3d printer

    @scroungasworkshop4663 3 года назад

    Hi Alexandre, I watched this video with keen interest and would like to make some suggestions if I may. First, I have a pallet jack as well so I am making custom heavy duty pallets to sit my lathe and surface grinder on out of railway sleepers. If you decide to move either of your two big machines you have to go through the hassle of getting them high enough to get the pallet jack under them again. My 700kg surface grinder has lubrication points at the back so I need to move it every so often to get to them. Moving a lathe is risky at the best of times but having it fixed to a pallet makes it so simple to move. Being tall I find the extra height of the machines sitting on the pallets a real bonus.
    Nearly all my other machines are on wheels. The empty space your draws need to open will become a magnet to put junk in over time. I had a similar problem so I marked off the outline of the area with 50mm tape so I knew nothing could be put in that area even “just for now”. You’ll see what I mean over time. I didn’t see a dedicated work bench anywhere so I assume that’s still to come. When it does I would suggest putting the drill press as close to it as possible. I’ve been rearranging my workshop for nearly 40yrs and I have learnt that I don’t go from my lathe straight to the drill press very often but I go from the bench to the drill press all the time. It makes sense because you generally mark out your holes to drill on the bench first. I hope you find some of these ideas are useful. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

  • @miningbruno
    @miningbruno 4 года назад

    Have you considered partitioning off your office? Fresh air from the outside comes into that first, and then is vented out into the workshop proper. I would have installed some shallow, waist-height shelves around the periphery -- minus the entryway -- and then some sort of clear (polycarbonate?) windows to the ceiling (maybe more shelving hanging from the ceiling, and the windows would go up to that).

    personally, I would not put the desk back in the corner, I would rotate it so it was running above the pull out drawer. Swap locations of the drawers, so the step is against the wall. This way you could face your workshop when working on the computer. Then add some shelves or cabinets where the door/table currently sits. I would also enclose the area from desktop to floor to keep any dust out of the wiring and help keep it looking neat by hiding the wiring.

    Good move sacrificing a bit of storage length that you had lots of to simplify the wheel mounting solution on the drawers :-) About those DeWalt chargers, you should hang them, much much nicer to use one hand to chuck a battery on than have to hold the charger with the other and use two. I have 3 on the wall, 2 normal like those and 1 fast for the flexvolt packs when I'm in a hurry.

  • @almostdarkslide3851
    @almostdarkslide3851 4 года назад

    I like what you did, it gives me ideas. One thing I would have done different is the following. I don't like having a desk against the wall in an open space like yours, I would rather put the desk on the opposite side of the platform and build a step on the short side of it. This way you wouldn't need to build a step on one of the drawers and you'll be able to see your shop while editing. Another thing, why not making longer drawers and cut a hole in the bottom so you have the wheels inside of it, you would have a bigger and more optimized drawer even though you would loose the corners with the wheels.

    @gerrygilmore4337 4 года назад

    My idea of the large drawers would have been to make them 1/2 the length and have 4 of them. You could have made some kind of an attachment to hook them together. That way when you pull them out you would only need 4 ft. of space next to your office space stand. then if you need something out of the back one just pull it out 4 ft. and disconnect the front piece and slide it out of the way then pull the back part out, the only things you`ll need is more casters and the latchess to attach them together with. Otherwise great video and shop rearrangement. But then again my hindsight is 20/20.

    I think it's time for a new storage solution for all the boxes ... maybe a big cabinet in the 3D printer cabinet style - for all your nignags and 3D printing stuff that is laying around or should not get dusty!

    You have an awesome space and huge space with pretty nice tools and machines. Good job dude, your videos are awesome. I am also curious about how your working table will be.

    Alexandra, I spotted a nice little bench top bandsaw in the video. Would you be so kind as to tell me the brand? Thank you and love your videos.

    Makes hurricane proof raised flooring for an office... improvises a desk.
    You have my attention to see where this goes.
