People ask dumb questions. Being organized is key to any project. Things need a place. You are doing a GREAT job. As usual.
You DON'T have to explain why your doing what. There's a reason for the way you decide to do what you do. Your a very good organizer. I'm sure Ashley is a big part of that. lol I soooooo enjoy your video's and I love your explanation of you tools, which I have bought for my son. He loves working on houses alot like you
Well said Glenda, I always know there is a reason they do what they do it always means they are one step toward working on something in, under or above this house!!
Yes! No apologies needed. You are working smart. Rebuilding a home takes more work than new. Each step you take (including a mobile shop) makes good sense! I look forward to the production of your wall wood on your router tables! I do hope you have a solid tongue lock on your workshop trailer. Look forward to next week.
Oh my lords... I don't get that one comment above. 🤔
But, well said Glenda. Nice that your son like to work on houses.
Before and afters are always awesome to see once completed.
I look forward to Doug and Ashley's. The kids rooms will look amazing for sure.
😊
I think you are incredibly patient explaining, yet again, why you are outfitting your trailer as a workshop.
Fellow followers, trust this man! He’s awesome and knows exactly what he needs to do to get the work done efficiently. I’ve followed them for ages - since Kokomo, and they are amazing. 👏👏🎉
I thought the beginning of this video was funny! Doug was talking, talking, talking, and then a word board pops up and says 3 or 4 words. 😂 I enjoyed that bit of humor.
I don't know why people keep asking the same questions, for example, "Why are you doing this and not that?" You've been pretty clear about it before, so it makes me sad that people feel comfortable trying to micromanage your builds, renovations, and time.
I'm enjoying getting to see all that you've done since you moved on the property not too long ago.
Thanks for sharing. Be well and God bless you all! 🙏🏻😊🌻
Ditto! 😃
You guys are way smarter and organized than the average person, so ignore the annoying questions from critics...
You did allot. Got the shelves done, electric to workshop, and put that beautiful smile on Ashley face. All will get done as it calls for it. Rome wasn't built in a day. Peace!
Third house I've watched you both renovate. The finished project was always beautiful as this will be.
With your comment I realized this is the fourth house I watched them renovate!!Wow!!
I know that I am dating myself. my grandfather used baby food jars to store small hardware items like screws, bolts, nuts, and washers. What he did was attach the lid of the jar to the bottom of one of the shelves then fill the jar and screw the jar into the lid. That way it was easy to see what was in the jar and it did not take up space on a shelf.
My grandfather did that too!!
I can't believe people make ANY 'comments' about WHAT you're working on and the speed you're doing it at. It's YOUR home, YOUR property, YOUR lives! I thought it was actually a pretty good idea ... now you have a place to (safely) store your tools while you continue your work. Clever!
Some people seem to watch, just so they can criticize, or offer advice.
We so agree. Took us 2 1/2 yrs to renovate our inlaw apartment. Was so worth it. Let negative comments roll off like water on a duck's back.
Workshop is looking great! Thanks again for sharing your journey. I hope you don't feel the need to justify when & why's of your projects unless you really want to. Folks sometimes ask the most interesting questions. Thanks again!
"I thought that was a good spot for her." Hahahahaha, you guys get funnier all the time. You just tickle me! Also, the editing treatment at the beginning of this video was genius. So COOL!!!
I was a DIY person for years... and I was usually pretty quiet about my projects because people just didn;t get it that when you are DIY is means just that ... you are doing all of it by yourself... planning, shopping, hauling, stacking and storing, plus executing the projects... as you are able.. from finding the materials and tools and now waiting for things to appear in stores and on shelves..And then there is daily living.. eating, laundry , kids, the whole real life scenario... I marvel at all you two get done. You are great. Thanks for sharing it.
It's coming along well. You have made a really great job of getting a workable and tidy workshop....As they say you can't bake a cake without cracking a few eggs first. There is always a process to getting a job done and although everyone wants to see the end results you have to complete the not so exciting jobs first before you can get to the fun stuff.
Fascinating that people are so concerned about how you decide to progress on *your* project. 😋 You're doing great -- love your workshop progress!
Loved the silent movie intro to your video. That was an amazing leap up onto the work bench Doug.
Seems to be the new way of behaving! YOU are doing something that you deem worthy of sharing on YT. If someone does not agree...they are free to NOT tune in. THEREFORE, you don't owe us a qualifying video every time you post!!! I have enjoyed your posts since you began years ago. I hope to continue enjoying them as you continue.
Doug and Ashley don't worry about the naysayers. They obviously have never done any remodeling or building or they would understand the realities of the work. Things never go as planned completely . Backorders, delays, defective materials , etc. all factor in. You do what you can when you can. Onward and Upward. Excelsior!
Doug, your faithful subscribers always know you and Ashley have a method to your projects. I always enjoy how thoroughly you plan and complete your projects.
I think people also forget that you told us that this is probably not your forever home. You will be moving again once you have a home of your heart. So anything you can do to be able to take your workshop with you is fantastic! Great job. 👍🙋
At least the delays aren’t caused by freezing weather. Snow, blizzards, and high winds! Those days are behind you! 😎😀
haha, yep. So glad we don't have those issues to deal with anymore!!
Building the shop first makes perfect sense to me.
Love everything you guys do. I know there is order to your madness. The water behind you today looked so clear. Ashley and your hard work is starting to show. The work shop is amazing and unique in every way. Reflects yours and Ashley‘s personality.
Loved the "silent" intro. So creative!
I liked your vintage silent movie intro with word pop ups. Reminded me of Charlie Chaplin movies.
You guys are so creative…..between your projects and your video editing I can’t decide which I enjoy more! You are always so entertaining!
No explanation needed. It's your property, your home, your tools. I'm enjoying watching what you share.
That was an impressive jump to the top of the work bench.
It doesn't matter to me what you are doing...I just enjoy watching the progress whatever it is! Trailer looks amazing!
You are good about explaining things and why you’re doing it..That said, you don’t owe anyone an explanation.. only you know how ,and what needs to be done and why..
LOVED the opening. Very creative.
I don't know why people are complaining. I like all of your guys' content. It's about the journey not the end.
All I have to say is you both always make me smile. I don’t care if you decide to move dirt for the day. Your channel is always a pleasure to watch.
We actually spend a lot of time moving dirt and the property is slowly getting better. We'll have to do an update sometime about all that.
@@diyfferent y'all just let that ocean in and sell it for beachfront property..LOL. Blessings ;-) Just think y'all never built a house boat, it will be such an adventure.
Don't know who does the editing, but well done. Loved the silent movie. Cool ninja jump Doug. Another great build.🌼
no need to explain - you think and plan ahead - you all do great work
I’m so sorry that you feel like you have to explain and defend your choices to others. You two are awesome, keep being yourselves.
Looks great! Take your time & enjoy the build you guys. I personally don't give a rat's backside what order or the reason for when you get the jobs done. Its interesting to watch everything going on regardless. I think some people forget that this is RUclips & not a big budget production of an HGTV episode, where everything is perfectly choreographed.
There is a phrase for the process of jumping around from one project to another in order to keep things moving. It's called shaving the yak.
Yaks have a lot of hair. No matter where you shave, there is always a lot more to shave.
I learned that from Gail Goddard. She has The Clutter Fairy channel.
do what's best for you, silent movie opening was great.
It's not the destination, it's the journey. Thank you for bringing me along. Great job on everything by the way!!!
Proper organization and enjoyable work environment will pay dividends. Good job guys!
U both have such a strong constitution when it comes to fixing the house. May it stay with you , bring continued success and creativity. Blessings to u
The most important thing in remodeling/building is "ORGANIZATION"!!! GREAT JOB for sure on your shop it will save a ton of time when you need a tool and wow you can actually find it LOLOL The clearing out of the bedroom not only makes it nicer to work in BUT nobody will be falling or tripping over tools and equipment on the floor. SAFETY FIRST right??? Beautiful JOB in the NEW Shop/tool trailer fantastic. Thank you for sharing. God's Blessings to you ALL.
Don't let the CC's ( couch carpenters) make you feel guilty. Your doing a good job .
I definitely think the bedroom will feel brighter with light walls to bounce the natural light around. Nothing soaks up light like a sheathed house frame!
The shelves look great and I love the re-creation of silent movies. Someone is very creative.
I love it too!!! Who would think of silent movies?? It's adorable 🥰
@@marystrenke3050
Lol it is isn't it?
Your trailer/workroom looks great. I can't wait to see what's next. Keep it up, you're doing great!
Your videos are always good. The 2 shelves look great. Nice tool boxes, great find.
Had to chuckle when Doug said, and here's Ashley, like you were a tool he had placed in the trailer, while showing the other tools.
Love your sense of humor.
See ya Ashley.
Doug, nice shelves! Very clean and tidy..
Super nice silent movie effect at the beginning of the video!
Well I can understand why some people would ask certain questions I still feel you shouldn't have to explain yourself. Like you said you're still moving ahead. I agree 100% with building the workshop. Just getting all of those tools out of the house and off the porch etc is a big accomplishment. Plus you'll be able to find things quicker. And when you want to stop working on a project you can just turn off the lights and close the door to the shop and things won't be in your way. While I'm always anxious to see what you're up to I guess I don't want you to finish up your property too soon or we won't have anything to watch. 😊
At the beginning, you said, "Something's missing"... I said "Color!" Lol! You def added color as well as shelves. It looks great, and the silent film with the music was clever.
I thought that he was going for color too :) The thumbnail seemed to be the clue. With Doug and Ashley, while I don't always guess right, I at least get the "why".
I love the way you guys are forward thinking through every project you tackle. It's probably the ones who have never attempted to do what you both do, that question your incentives continuously. I mean, it makes perfect sense to me to pick the legos up off the floor before vacuming 😉. Love that you made Ashley a spot of her own too 😆 nice job! ❤
I think the trailer workshop was a brilliant idea!
I dont know why people keep asking the daftest questions, you have always explained why and how you do things. your work is always fabulous and tidy and neat. you both never stop .. always moving forward, doesn't matter in which order you do it. gosh I do get huffy when I see you having to answer yet again why you do what you do, you have patience of a saint lol, you both keep doing you , hope you and family are well hugsx
All I know is that I’m thankful you are sharing your journey. I can only wish that you travelled and could help us.
Your workspace is awesome. Be blessed.
Fun! Loved the silent movie treatment!
I think anyone who has done a renovation knows that you have to have a plan and a series of steps that you work through. Taking the time to set up this workshop is going to make everything so much easier going forward.
Doug, as always- it looks awesome 😎!!! I’m so happy for you to be making so much progress!!!
Loved the intro too! So glad to see you had space for the "boss" to have a chair! 😅
Love the neat and organized work space. Sure we're anxious to see progress on your house but I think most of us tune in because we like who you are and that you share part of your life with us. Keep on being you!
I second that!
If you sell the finished property you will at least have a workshop at next job. Love it. So smart.
Those shelves look gorgeous !!!!
You guys do excellent work no matter what you
do !!!!!!
Here's how you reduce how many times you have to explain what you are doing and why you are doing it in the order you are doing it - make a short and tell the viewers if you are new, great! Thanks for joining! If you don't understand why we are doing things this way, click on the short right up there and it will explain everything! I think that will keep things moving forward and also help new viewers and those who have been away get caught up! Love the workshop! Great job!
Building workshop makes perfect sense to me. I'm a planner and I have been taught perfect planning and procedure. So I'm often paralyzed if things don't go smoothly (and things usually don't go smoothly ). I've learnt a lot from your approach. and my life is easier now. I can do things the way I find them sensible and still achieve my goal. Thank you.
Painting the shelves red was a great idea. Takes the design to the next level.
The Workshop is looking awesome guys !!
respect someone that actually knows how to build. it is an amazing trade/craft/talent!
Looks great!! Make sure you put some type of security alarm 🚨 on that trailer and a double lock 🔐 Someone could try to steal the trailer or break into it...not everyone is as honest and kind like you two are!😊Just thinking of you! Be safe and healthy 😷Take care!
Loved your intro. That was a fun way to start your video! 😄
Can you imagine how hard it was to do that without modern tools in the old days?
You are both very wise. The shop will get you acre home Reno and the house won’t get you a shop.
I learned this from my great grandparents who immigrated to Canada from the Ukraine in 1898. They lived in a shack but built a new barn. This enabled them to produce food to feed their family then selling surplus to build a bigger home.
After all they had 13 children as was the lifestyle then. Be well and thanks for these videos. Maybe put some emergency food in the shop incase you have to evacuate on short notice. 🇨🇦🌻🌻
You guys are doing great! Slow and steady wins the race.
Don’t take in the “judgmental” comments! You are 2 people working on your home & know best what you need to do! Nothing but compliments & awe from me! ❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️
OH Doug! What a perfectionist you are! Its a workshop. However, I applaud your mindset that you want things the way you want them!
Even though I am writing a comment several days after my initial viewing (my smart T\V won't let me comment), my desktop will. I hope DIY sees this. I really enjoyed the old fashioned, black and white, silent movie theme!! Great idea. Also, enjoy the disappearing Doug at the end. Very entertaining!!!!
Looks good. I am happy for you and as you said now you can move it when it follows the yard. Great job
You and Ashley do an amazing job it's your project your house work on it as you see fit and forget about the negativity...
Doug,
Agree with others that you don't need to explain but glad you did
You are such an organized worker. Wish I could be so neat in a work environment.
Just such a joy to watch you and Ashley . You never disappoint in a vlog.
Looking forward to seeing the new house completed.
Workshop looks great.
You have already answered that question, I don’t think you should have to explain yourself over and over! Love the new shelves!
Thanks for the update video
❤️👍loved the opening of this segment. You two are so talented and FUNNY!😂😅🤣Always interesting. Always crafting out decisions. A marvel to watch and listen to. You, as a family, are so blessed. A true “never settle”, WE can do it, the right way, attitude. 💕🙏
That work shop will help out a lot ! Especially staying organized. I dont know if you are like me but if I start getting unorganized it makes me less motivated . Love the videos !!!
I've been married to a contractor for 52 years. I enjoy watching everything you do while building but I also love watching your beautiful family! Thank you for sharing.
I'm loving the trailer/workshop and for what your doing is such a wise move... it rains so often in the spring/summer in Florida last year it rained almost every day at 5 pm where I live ... when your ready that trailer will sell in a minuet for more than you paid for it and what you put in it... great investment
you must have a lot of new people who are not aware of your high work ethic and how smart you guys are.
Honestly it is not anyone's business what you guys do. People need to look at the skills you have and not question what you are doing. If people are concerned they need to start their own you tube channel!!! Take your time on your house. You have plenty of time and you do not want to rush the job. I love your channel!!!
I am thoroughly amazed at some of the comments...just a lot of rotten eggs about, sigh.
As soon as you put plaster or board on the walls the room will brighten dramatically. The bench jump was awesome.
You go ahead and do what you can do for now.
I love you and yours.
Bless you all.
Whether you do your own work or hire someone, there's always one or a dozen things that complicate the process. It's not like driving thru McD's and getting a happy meal! Love your interesting and fun videos! I usually learn something, building or nature related! 😍👍
Take your time. Don't pay attention to the negative comments. You all are awesome. When I remodeled my mobile home, my family said the same things. There is a reason for everything. Keep up the awesome work.
Yeahhhhhhh it's my favorite family! 🤗
I agree keeping all the wood and tools in the work trailer will obviously make the house cleaner and less cluttered. Plus you don't have a garage so the trailer is taken the place of a nice dry garage.
It makes sense to me to have a workshop, keep mess outside the house. Keep all your tools in one place.
Shelves turned out great. Loved the editing
that workshop will do you very well for a long time, nice job!
Ooo!sharp! I like the red .it's kind of fancy. 😁
It was a great video Doug. Anytime you give us a update and we see what you guys are up to . It wasn't very long but you got a lot of work done.
I really liked the Silent Movie start to this video. You two are so creative. The workshop trailer is looking great.
I appreciate the way you personalize the process and subliminally encourage viewers to get started on their own projects. About the workshop timing, it's always wise to set up a staging area FIRST. The benefit is much less frustration and far greater time efficiency. You are teaching by example.
You guys are awesome. Preparing to do a project is the hardest part.
Doug, I agree with Glenda Brekke. You don’t have to explain to us at all. We should be thanking you and Ashley for allowing us to watch your life unfold. I know you chose to do it. THANK YOU both!💕
Don’t explain what you’re doing!!! I love everything you do no matter what it is…..
