    Such a soothing video. Music is a perfect volume, the rain esthetic, the soft voice, I love it. Great video! Awesome workstation too.

    Hello, I hope you are well, a tip for when you cut and you have the splinters, put masking tape, then cut, you will see how a better finish looks, so have a good day

    I love seeing someone making the most of the space they have to enable their creativity instead of bemoaning what they do not have. Great video, looking forward to watching you use the space and dial it in.

    That's a vintage Halliburton suitcase, also called a train case. They often had a mirror under the lid and a lot of little pouches along the side for all your makeup while travelling. I have a similar vintage one from Samsonite I keep family pictures in.
    Like the setup too. Apartment workshops are hard to set up but it is a lot better than sawhorses in the common area, for sure!

      Ooh thanks for the info on the case! Super cool

    What a great creative workshop! Practical use of space. I love the wall hooks. It’s also handy to see what people are throwing out - most of our resources are from the side of the road!

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  Год назад +2

      Thanks! Yes, I agree. Always fun to repurpose something that someone else was tossing.

    Looks good, it’s never about the size of the space, it’s always about being creative and finding ways to execute it. Kept it up…new follower

    Some great ideas here I can think about as I set up my new mini-workshop (140 sq. ft.) And I always keep in mind how many experienced diy'ers say "the first 6 workshops I set up..." in other words, nothing has to be permanent....things change over time. Thanks for all the good ideas.

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  Год назад

      Thanks and definitely agree. My workshop will constantly be evolving.

    Great job nice space, any small area and the willingness to set up every time you want to make something or fiddle around is just as doable as a big space.

    You might consider add some furniture moving slides to the bottom of your under-bench drawers to make them easier to move in and out. Thank you for the inspiration.

    That factory edge cutoff from the front of your worktop can become an easy clamp on straight edge for future cuts.

    That's about all the space I have. I am just in a little shed about 8x12, sharing it with the garden tools. love the setup, I definitely need to optimize the space I have.

    • @elenamakes

      Thanks! Yeah you got to get creative for sure when space is so limited

  • @ralphlivingston894

    Excellent video! One big suggestion: French cleats. You could take advantage of all that wall space and you might be able to lose the shelving unit… Or you could keep it. Thanks again, great video.

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  Год назад

      Appreciate the suggestion! That's definitely something I will look into in the future.

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  Год назад

      Thanks! And yes I break out the sawhorses when the weather allows for a larger work area

  • @josephtwilley7187

    In the process of downsizing so interested to see what you have managed to fit in to a small space. Look forward to future projects.

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  Год назад

      Nice, never easy to downsize to a smaller space but lots of shelves for vertical storage help with a small footprint

      You can do a lot with some sawhorses in a small yard but I hear you. Before we were in this place I used to make stuff at the kitchen table, but it wasn’t ideal lol
