This is more like a DREAM SPACE than a woodshop. I hope heaven looks alot like this. Damn. Life goals.
EL CHAPPY TAN preach
Every time we move our shop around or expand again I come back to this video, thanks for everything you do!
+Crimson Custom Guitars Thanks. I need to do another shop ture.
frank howarth we would all really love to see that, thanks again.
There are several factors in starting a woodworking business from home. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Enata wood system (google it if you're interested) it's the best plan i've heard of. look at the extraordinary info.
I have never been more jealous in my life! Those are some wonderful old tools, and a very nice building.
Hi Frank. I am a stagehand, and the stage deck to the theater I work in is over 6 feet below the street. So load ins are done by rolling or carrying large heavy things down a ramp that is raised and lowered by chain motors. If something is very large that we do not want to chance getting out of control as it goes down the ramp, we first tie a robe to the large piece and then we raise the low end of the ramp to be level with the street and roll the item onto ramp. While the ramp is lowered the guys have control of the piece and can let it down the ramp slowly. The chain motor runs slow and can be rated for up to 2 tons. We move lots of things in and out of the theater and this seems to be the most efficient way.
love the idea of digging down to achieve more headroom without having to build a tall structure.............great video
i think you got one of the most impressive shops i've ever seen.
The coolest part of the shop was your pile of dust in the dust bin, you can see the different colored layers of dust, like a cross section of sedimentary rock! :D
brandon2076 agreed
Frank - Just wanted to say I ran across your channel this week. I went on a Frank Howarth binge watching for like three nights in a row. I was up half the night...such cool video's. I love the two tables in your shop. I was thinking about having two old saws on one cart next to each other and have them on one long fence....one with dado set and one with a normal blade....but your idea is still great. Thanks again and keep it up...love that shop!
I have watched so many shop tours over the past year. It's just something I enjoy: getting to see different people's layouts, spaces, machines, utilization of floorspace, etc. But whenever I need my OWWM vintage machinery itch to be scratched, I come back to this video every time. It's one of my favorite videos on RUclips. Thanks Frank! Maybe someday my shop space and old machines will be in a state that is worthy to make a video of...
This press has worked like a charm for my projects ruclips.net/user/postUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!
i'm 19 years old , and i have never do anything that have to do with wood . but man i like your work and i've watched most of your videos! i love how you're passionate about it ! and also i like the fact that you're doing something that you love with all of your talent ! thank you for sharing these stuff with us , and keep doing this awesome stuff.
The ultimate Workshop . Well designed and beautiful Heavy duty old powerful power tools. Thanks for explaining and sharing. A wonderful place to create .
So in 2013 you had:
3 Table Saws
2 Jointers
1 Planer
4 Bandsaws
4 Radial Arm Saws
1 Router Table
4 Drill Presses
1 Disk Sander
1 Mortiser
1 Belt/Scroll Sander
1 Wood Lathe
1 Metal Lathe
1 Sharpening Grinder
1 Buffer
1 Swing Saw
1 Scroll Saw
1 Dust Collector
So that's 29 tools in total, not even including the hand tool ones!!! Super jealous haha - I would love to see an updated tour to see if the number has increased also
Two of my favourite things on earth are woodworking and filmmaking, you are quite brilliant at both! Some of the best videos I've ever seen, especially the time lapses, looking forward to more!
Frank, thanks for the tour of this wonderful shop and all of your generous videos.
I think this is the fourth time I've watched the tour and by magic some aspect of my two bay garage shop improves, so thank you for that. I think it wonderful that you have created a workspace so worthy of your talents. Thanks so much for the thought, effort and creative genius you continue to share with us all. Please don't stop! Many thanks, Gord
I do not woodwork or watch woodworking videos but somehow I stumbled upon this project and I really must admit that this video series is awesome. No matter the subject love is love, and this to me feels like a labor of love that you have invested a lot into. I wish you the best creations in your new shop!
Beautiful! very thought out! I find it kind of cool that you keep your own litle metal shop to take care of your machines. Also your solutions with the noise and light are very interesting!
Best shop ever!
Very well thought-out, and lots of nice tools.
Frank, I really like your shop, most importantly you have high end quality tools that will out last you and me. Great organization skills.
Frank you are showing and telling has me in wonderful mood. Thank You Kindly
Some may envy you but I congratulate you. Try Grizzly Tools Shoowrom.
Armand Blenker I envy and congratulate frank howarth . I'm gobsmacked by this awesome workshop
Me Too Adrian Amoroso, He has a great set-up.
Do you like Woodworking Adrian?
Derek Schwartz, thanks have bunch of good days. thank -you
Yes, Armand Blenker, I do. Not that I'm very good at it :)
Great job Frank, thanks for taking the time to show us...love it.
Fantastic workshop, great layout that's well planned, lots of natural light, plenty of space, neat and organised and a factory load of seriously industrial woodworking machinery and all really lovely vintage stuff. Great video.
I love the shop exterior and interior design. I also love how you edit your footages, it makes it a real pleasure to watch.
That view (effect) out the side door is amazing!
Thank you for the tour Frank. You certainly do have a lot of interesting toys.
I feel like I've been to your woodshop now. Thanks for the awesome vids and basically all the inspiration. I love your work, your editing and filming style and that you're an architect and still do all your woodwork besides that. Thanks, Frank!
I too love shop tours and I have great admiration for guys who are willing to rescue some of the old iron. Nothing in the whole world runs like a 2,000 lb. Oliver jointer. I'm not sure I'd have done the three foot pit thing but in order to preserve a view from the home, I see the thought which went behind it.
Very nice shop Frank. I'd kill for that much square footage. What I've grown to realize that NOBODY has everything..............well, maybe with the sole exception of Marc Spagnuolo. But I'll bet even he has wants and wishes he had more space.
Thanks for sharing Frank. I really love your video technique as well.
Thanks for the tour. Watched from start to finish. Love your filming and ideas. Great space to work in. Laughed at your dust in the box. All very cool. Oh and the kids swinging on the morticer, how cool!
Very nice shop and another excellent video. You really do have some of the best videos online. Your woodworking skills are very impressive, but I could watch your videos all day! No annoying attempts at humor, no irritating music, just clear, concise information. Thank you taking the time to make and post this and all your videos.
I love the old DeWalt saws too. In my home shop I have my Dad's Dewalt radial from 1951. It was a wedding present to him from my Mom and he built our house and many family member's houses with it. In our pattern shop at work we still use a larger one and it has been there since the early 50s as well. Nice shop and well thought out.
A very well thought out and cool space. Your comments at the end drive home the fact that no matter what size shop folks have they are always a work in progress. Thanks for sharing.
Rik
It's even bigger and is packed with far more tools than I'd previously realised! Thank you, this is excellent!!
What you present is more innovative and more of high quality than any tv show or presentation or whatever. Keep doing it. There is a certain class in everything you present. From video editing to woodworking staff, to colors etc.
Frank thank you for sharing your world with us it is a fantastic work shop you must enjoy every minute in there.
Fantastic shop. Very inspiring. I think the most appealing scenes include your children. It's important--to me, at least--that they witness our passion (madness)? My dream is that in 15 years, my son's wife wants a particular item and my son says: "No problem. I'll make it." Thanks, Frank. These videos are terrific and fun.
Hallo,
ich spreche kein Englisch.
Aber habe ALLE VIDEOS von Frank gesehen und bin von seinem Handwerklichen können und seinen Arbeiten sehr, sehr begeistert!
Diese absolut perfekte und durchdachte Werkstatt kann nur begeistern, und motiviert ständig für neue Projekte.
Deine Filmtechnik ist apsolut SUPER und noch nie in dieser Art gesehen.
Frank.. du hast dein Paradies erarbeitet und wohl verdient!!!
Mit freundlichen Grüssen aus der Schweiz.
Heinz Hintermann
wow, thanks. I only lock the sliding door in the winter when I am trying to keep the heat in. I realized the problem you are describing last winter and I now keep the back man door unlocked when I have the big door locked. I also told my wife this. The next step would be to put up a sign for the EMTs on the big front door.
you are also a good videographer. The time lapse was great.
An updated tour would be a hit, you have made so many changes since 2013!
I absolutely loved your videos! Your narration and editing are second to none. What a great building, and you seem to really enjoy what you do, not only in your secular work, but in your woodworking venture as well. Thanks for taking all the time to document all of this. I'm looking forward to seeing your other videos.
Swing saw...never knew it existed. Your shop could double as a museum with all the nice older tools. Very cool
Nice!!! Thanks for the tour! What a lovely and practical space. The evolution of "staging" is never quite done. I have had my shop for 40 years (several locations) but the layout is always being modified. I guess that's the fun of it - plus it gives you something to "do" on those lazy days! Thanks again - great presentation.
This is by far the best woodshop tour I have seen on RUclips! Great production value in the video as well. Bravo!
What a great space and a great tour. I'll look forward to periodic updates as your layout and tool collection evolve.
Frank I am impressed and love your workshop. Good luck with the shop, I can see many projects coming out of there.
Great presentation. I love your humility and honesty, particularly with your tool purchases. You have a new fan in me and thanks for sharing.
Frank, I love your approach and sensibility. Most "instructional" videos of the RUclips type are, if anything, painful to watch, but yours are enjoyable and almost effortless to view. I know that they are not easy to make, so thank you for the time and energy that you give to each one.
To be able to tell a story is a lost art....and I can tell that you are probably a pretty funny guy when not on camera...
-Matt
+Matthew Lally Thanks
+frank howarth
..." I really did NOT need to go get that"...I love it!
Spectacular! Wonderful videography, and it's great to see your passion for woodworking! And, of course its stunning!
Thank you for the two uploads off building your workshop and the shop tour! I had a lot off fun watching it. I wish i had a workshop myself, and i look at yours as an example how you can design and creating your own. Im just starting to do little jobs at my home and it helps really to continue with my own destination.
For some reason, I'm annoyed by the two thumbs down given to this video. Shop tours are a very giving thing. There's just nothing negative about them. Frank has been such a nice guy, never engaging the negative comments, and sharing his work with us. It seems obnoxious to even consider a thumbs down. Thumbs up from me.
Great video and great ideas. I love the look of the workshop! Inside and outside. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for these recent videos, Frank. I particularly appreciate that you tell us about what you tried and why...and what ended up working and what not so much. I always blame limited space for my tool placement challenges. Looks like we all struggle with it, even when there's good space available. Thank you!
Impressive shop, and superb filming, Frank. Thanks for sharing.
Frank this is probably the 10th time I have watched this video. It just really cool to see the thought and planning ahead you have given to your shop! Not to mention your amazing videography ......👍👍👍📽
Great video Frank, you should be very very proud of the way it came together. Most professionals would give their right arm to work in an area such as yours. It is testament to your foresight, skill, and artistic capabilities, it was a pleasure to be taken on tour.
Thanks and take care
Mike
Just watched this video as well as the building of the woodshop. Love both! Look forward to watching more of you and your projects in woodworking. :)
Just amazing video! Thanks for your time spent for making such a well organized shop tour!
Kind of cool the way opening the dust bin tells the history of the woods that you have worked with over the last few months.
wow, thats a masive workshop Frank.. amazing. by the way I love your voice . its so awesome!!!!
+NZ WoodTurning Thank you
Nice insights to good aspects and negative ones. I could listen to those for hours.
Frank, I'm inspired! Great ideas... excellent finds (tool-wise) and I appreciate your candor (being 'frank'... couldn't resist) on what works/worked and what doesn't. (i.e. 90 degree elbows in your dust collection line... access to the filter, etc.) You keep it real and I appreciate that.
Awesome shop frank...your video work is superb, thanks so much for walking us through your mancave!!!
Great video and thanks for the tour. Especially appreciate the commentary. Helps an inexperienced woodworker like myself gain valuable insight into setting up my own shop. Look forward to watching your other videos.
Frank it's a real pleasure to watch your videos. Yours could be the template for youtubers who are serious about videoing. Please keep up the awesome stuff.
Lots of editing went into this one. That made it very enjoyable to watch. Great design on the shop!
your workshop is my dream work shop. well organized full of tools and machines . love it.
Thank you Frank, stole some ideas for my future workshop. You videos are very nice and professional!
Just one more video that reminds me I want to be you when I grow up. I'm 61. Great shop.
Great work on your shop, and your presentation Frank! You do good.
I always enjoy your videos. It’s good to see that we all have the same problems no matter how big or small our shop is. Trying to find storage solutions. We all have a machine we got from a boot sale meaning to restore and use it and there it sits. Cheers John from County Durham England
A workshop is a never ending process in completion, you will always find something different you want to do to make your space more enjoyable. It will never be 100% complete but, it is as enjoyable to figure it out. Nice work on your videos.
That is a great shop and well filled a ton of thought went into it and it shows! Very nice!
Thanks for the in depth tour, Frank. Great shop!
awesome shop. thanks for letting us take a look
Firmness, Commodity and Delight.......beautiful work brah!
I,m from Lakeville,MN I Lived in Kailua,HI in the 80s I now live in North Texas/ your shop is amazing keep up the awesome work
Great telling and you see that you put a lot of work into your videos and it really gives them a personal and enjoyable touch. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks, I have put a link in the description that explains it. a negative hook angle is less aggressive and will give you more control with a radial arm saw
Great video I love that you are saving all that old equipment and putting it to good use.
hi frank. one word mate...."beautiful". what an awesome workshop, man!
the guitars that you could build in there :))
in another posting, someone commented that his wife would never see him. he's right, too. if wood, metal and electricity were free, that'd happen ;)
btw, i live out here in the hoola-hoola's of northern Europe, where you have to sell half of your soul to buy a small sheet of multiplex, let alone the amount you've used. it costs a bloody fortune over here....you chaps over the pond are proper lucky.
thanks for posting mate...all the best!
Amazing shop. Amazing tour. Amazing Frank
you got to get that mortiser up and running! I just got a beautiful General 220,pneumatic mortiser and im blown away by the performance of it. from intricate 1/4" mortises to 1" before that i was chopping mortises by hand. So the machine is nice. great Video Frank, thanks!
Nice Shop Frank, thanks for sharing...
All those old power tools are awesome!!
BR
Nice setup! Great tool collection! Great video on it all! Thanks for sharing this! Cheers!
Hello Frank,
Found the link to this video at the Garage Journal. Your shop is fantastic! congrats on having such a nice place to work. Just a passion...
Very nice shop Frank, I really like that lathe corner with the large window/door opening.
Awesome tour of an amazing wood shop! It must be hard to leave it! :)
What an amazing guy, I could never be that organized, good luck to you.
Great video, great shop. Thanks for showing us
I've come from 7 years in the future. The world has gone to shit and we are all trapped in our houses. Perfect time for an updated shop tour Frank, don't you think? Cheers from Scotland!
Hey Frank. Just wanted to say that I'm amazed at the shear volume of work you get done.
Also, I really like that you don't limit yourself to any one discipline. Wood turning, cabinetry, even some metallurgy for shop tools. Impressive.
The one thing I might have changed about your shop is a couple of "off rooms". one for wood, and one for tools on wheels. it would give you just a little more space. Other than that …perfect!
Keep up the good work.
Thanks for sharing! What a wonderful shop!
Keep up the great work making videos Frank! I found this very interesting. Thank you.
Serious case of wood shop envy. Great videos
Great shop Frank, thanks for the tour....Matt
Such an awesome shop, I'm jealous. :) Always stay safe with those machines and have lots of fun building stuff!
Impressive. What a beautiful shop. I'm envious.
frank howarth Frank, what an amazing shop you have created and assembled. What a wild dream you envisaged but it is absolutely masterful. I have worked in decent sized shops with things far and in between, however your shop is ideally made. Everything in its rightful place. Great work. The video was a great watch too. Keep it up!
Great build & tour videos. Thanks for posting them.
