Will always be one of the best channels. He is a veteran of RUclips but has kept his roots. Builds things for his shop so he can build things he uses daily. I still rewatch so many of the older videos. Never disappointed in the new videos no matter what the topic.
In my opinion, this world is a better place because of you. With your inspirational, applied realism, practicality and abundant unintended humor, everything you produce ends up exceptional. There are few RUclips channels that can even come close to what you have done. It feels like I'm watching Russell Crowe in the movie "A Brilliant Mind" because your thought process is absolutely fascinating. Thank you for just being you and sharing with us.
I laughed and cried when one project leads to the next to one which leads to one that should have been done before, which leads to one of those "while I'm at it". I can relate far too much. Thanks for the laughs, and hats off to you for organizing it all.
His story just sounded like me constructing my 3D printer XD It was a kinda not-really-optimally-designed DIY from the first place when I bought, and I have worked a ton of time on it. I feel like it's much closer to what I have envisioned, but I always see more improvements that could be done. However, when I decide to actually work on major improvements, I see many tiny things that might as well be done in advance. However, while he could film all the process to monetize, I get to procrastinate other important things, going like, "ah well, let me just work on this first. it could be done real quick anyways", even though I know it's never true :P
I am amazed at the shear productivity of Matthias. He can accomplish more with less in any given period of time than everyone I know. Simply breath-taking!
One of the main things that brought me to your videos so many years ago, was your cosy and personal workshop. Glad to see you’re putting a personal touch on your new workshop too 💯
I love your honesty and openness to having disarray in your shop and not being ashamed of it. Woodworking can be at dirty Hobby and with the work that you put out, that speaks for itself!
Wow this is like the polar opposite of frank howarth, i love it! You can really tell that this is not a woodworker's workshop, its an engineer's workshop. Its awesome =)
"And here's another 400 drawers which I haven't quite filled... Next I'm building some drawers to hold....drawers....Imagine Matthias' drawer output if in hindsight he'd painted the stadium first!! Seriously though one talented taskmaster...
Watching this video has me convinced that Matthias is the coolest person in the world at the moment! I hope I can do 1/4 of the things he's achieved one day.
Nice job, Matthias! Always enjoy your videos and your projects! And I also like your imgcomp software! Your energy level is incredible. I admire it! Thanks for your contributions to RUclips!
Not even jealous of your workshop in the sense that you put countless hours into making and customising everything. I'm just sitting here in awe and admiration :)
Looking great man. I can't even get into my workshop right now. Will get started om cleaning it this upcoming weekend. Have an amazing Thursday, Andreas 🇸🇪
I don't understand why this guy hasn't been picked up for a TV show. He is quirky, funny, likable and comes up with a wide variety of ideas that interest people from all walks of building, crafting and technology. If I was a millionaire I would fund him in a heartbeat seeing how well shows like Mythbusters did and seeing he taps in that demographic and many others.
They certainly offered that to him but TV just isn't the same and he couldn't do what he's doing on RUclips. TV is just so different with lots of people and lots of restrictions.
watching this video is like looking in mirror. when I want just to arrange stuff in the shelf, one hour job turns into a two weekends messing around with stuff that was barely related to it.
This cable runs behind the shelf, and it's connected to this, which I should really move over there, but then I need to route the cable through here, but then that needs rearranging... hence my procrastination.
Hi Matthias. One type of lighting you should consider for you shop is LED suspended ceiling panels. They're typically 600mm square and 30 watts each, and they give a perfect light for workspaces.
I counted at least 8 dust collectors and saw dust all over the place .. :/ LOL!! ... and I would have painted the floor before setting everything up, but loved the video! It gave me a few ideas! ... On a side note, at the end you were talking about software and that reminded me of your Big Print software! I sure wish you could get it to work on Mac, I would definitely be a customer! Keep up the great work!
Very interesting. I'm thinking that time lapse monitoring is what I need to let me see where I just put something down (like my glasses) and now can't find!
I have to agree completely with your horizontal surface theory, more is definitely better. I find that I can control the chaos on the surfaces that count such as the table saw and assembly by having other surfaces house the uncontrolled chaos.
One idea I had was a static photo lights cluster. But roller tables & tool benches. So that you move the project to the lights & can finely adjust things from that.
Just the man i was looking for! You have done some great tests in the past showing strengths of joints. It would be very interesting if you could do a test of the strength of MDF, standard ply, birch ply, particle board etc. Im building a miter station and im considering materials for the sides. At what weight is the structural integrity impaired and at what weight does it all collapse? Does mixing materials help? If you're hungry for a test, i'd love for this to be the one. I was thinking of this last night and was hoping you'd upload so i could ask on a fresh video ^_^
I’m with you on horizontal surfaces and drawers. Totally jealous of the space you have. I can’t walk round my workshop, only along it and then for only 3 paces, 4 if I tidy! Still, I enjoy your videos. Regards, Mike
Matthias, You really should tape the joints for the gypsum wallboard, and then float the seams. It will greatly reduce any cracking that may occur between the gypsum board sheets. Thank you for posting.
I like this shop tour, it's harder to make changes when we have things over the place. And really useful tips. One idea to heater: mount it on some computer controlled dolly with 2 levels of movement (forward-reverse and turn platform with heater left-right) And then navigate it to move it out of your way automatically and turn heater your way. I think you have all skills to do it.
I want 1000 SF for a shop! I get about half of a 2-car garage for less than 250SF. I suspect you could get ruthless and eliminate a lot of the stuff that fills your drawers and shelves, but I also understand keeping things because someday you will need them. I like having plenty of horizontal surfaces, but I think the answer is to use big shelves for that instead of workbenches. Stuff that you really want to keep but may not use for a long time I would pack in boxes and put on shelves. I learned to make a list of the contents of a box on a piece of paper and tape to the end of the box so I don't have to open a lot of boxes to find something. This packs more stuff in less space then I can use the convenient shelves for the things I will use more often.
The shelf rearranging alone was reason enough for me to start storing stuff in milk crates (most turned so their open end faces out, others like an open-top bin) and setting the crates on the shelves. Easy to rearrange many "small things" by moving very few "bigger things".
Maybe a Help for your heating problem: In our shop we use a heating West (Heizweste) which you can Power with a Powerbank. You can buy them on Amazon for ~30€ here in Germany.
If I challenged you to make a list of all tools, what % would you remember? I’m now at an age (69) where I spend more time searching my drawers, bins, boxes, etc. for tools I think I have than using them.
I'm older than you and I never misplaced tools. Everything has a place and everything goes back into the same place as soon as I'm done using it. If it's wall-hung it goes back immediately even if I'm going to use it several times. I lose nothing. I have a full set of Craftsman socket and open-end /box wrenches that I bought 57 years ago when I was 18 years old. Over the years only two things were ever lost. 1 socket and one box wrench that my son lost working on his bike. Everything has a place. Take care
69yo :: Upgraded to MANY MANY clear plastic boxes so Io can search/inventory by looking. Just a couple of decades ago "I just knew" what and where without having to see or make lists.
@KelMaster Construction No I do not work anymore I am a retired Carpenter. When I did work I never lent out tools . Everyone knew do not touch my shit. And in over 38 years on the job I lost very few tools in my life. It was always use it and put it back in the tool boxes. Just me my friend I was always like that. I had a few tools stolen but I always sort of had an idea which guy on the job was a thief and he did not last long after that. I was a foreman for most of my life.
@KelMaster Construction Lmao. I hear you brother. I have heard that OCD bulshit also. If that's what it is that's fine it's better than the alternatively. " ALS " always losing shit. Take care of my friend
Matthias, thanks for a wonderful tour. After studying Marie Kondo, my recommendation would be to make more sliding shelves. Of course, you know that already. Keep up the good work. We love you. John.
I’m looking forward to the video about the software. Something I thought of that could be cool is if you tracked which machine you used what percentage of the time. You could possibly do that with zones in the camera frames. You can then get a breakdown after a project which shows 30% bandsaw, 50% table saw, 20% drill press.
Mathias I have a request. In one of your blower videos you were measuring wattage with a Kill A Watt and I was intrigued about load vs wattage and what determines the maximum limit. Could you do a video about that ?
@@dobrovik why not? I assume you are talking about questioning his health which if so then it seems kind of silly saying that since the guy has posted videos talking about it before

Matthias in 5 years: "And while I was at it I solved every major global crisis so now I can attach this lumber rack..."
Oh, I'd be all over horizontal surfaces if I had 1k square feet to stretch out in, but not so much with 1/3 that.
And nice lumber rack at 3:30 :)
Let's start by debating the existence of your miter saw!

RENOVATES ENTIRE HOUSE

Great video and Workshop Tour. Well done.😃 Cheers from Michael. Australia.
Matthias, you are my hero! Getting side-tracked on projects needed to complete the original project is my favorite past time.
I love your honesty and openness to having disarray in your shop and not being ashamed of it. Woodworking can be at dirty Hobby and with the work that you put out, that speaks for itself!
Wow this is like the polar opposite of frank howarth, i love it! You can really tell that this is not a woodworker's workshop, its an engineer's workshop. Its awesome =)
Your Creativeness and Ability to put a functioning Shop in almost any space always Amazes me !

GREAT to see your process. Behind the scenes and in the wild.
Awesome shop tour. Thank you. Love your stuff. I lost count at 7 dust collectors. lol
Wow Matthias! great video yet again!
Thank you for this shop tour ! It is nice to see, how you make a powerfull start in your shop !
I love all your "and this old thing I made 30 years ago" pieces, Matthias.
What is THE oldest item you built that you still have?
Looking great man. I can't even get into my workshop right now. Will get started om cleaning it this upcoming weekend. Have an amazing Thursday, Andreas 🇸🇪
Mine is getting tighter and tighter.
I really appreciate your constantly improving the things around you. Your energy and innovation are an inspiration! Cool software too!
Nice woodworking crib!
Matthias: “my shop was getting too hot during summer, so I used an old table to build this device to cool down the entire earth”
Nice tour Matthias! Thanks for sharing it with us!💖👌👍😎JP
I cant wait until your kids take over the shop! Great stuff!
Seems like you have the itch to get building again! Workshop is coming along nicely!

Wie bei mir 😂 ich darf eigentlich auch nicht alleine in die Werkstatt, es sieht jedes Mal schlimmer aus! Freut mich, dass es dir auch so geht

love the horizontal surfaces galore!
Nice space. It’s interesting to see how different people do things
Some welcomed old timey John Heitz banter. Love it!
Great video! I love seeing the shop transform.
Of all the things you have, the one I envy the most is your energy!
Welcome Back Matthias ! Nice to see you in the shop again.
That is not clutter on all the horizontal surfaces. It is horizontal random access storage (HRAS).
No, it is material vital to the mental health of my creative muse!
Would love to see the ceiling finished too!
If you just tell him to sweep the floor, I'm sure he'll finish the ceiling and maybe even replace all the flooring.
According to an old video he prefers having an unfinished ceiling because it makes it easier to work on the house
@@MrTarfu The trick might be to make the ceiling out of sheet wood and make it removable. Also means you can paint it without working above yourself.
Thank you for the shop tour/update and special thanks for sharing your software!
Loving the new workshop(s) you have in the new home, Matthias. Followed you on github, might give imgcomp a try soon!
Gehh, your shop is bigger than my entire apartment...

Hey ! Very well . I love to watch your videos !
It is great to see you back, I am looking forward to new projects! 😁🛫
Wow, my workshop is about the size of your small room... Dig the videos!
Very interesting. I'm thinking that time lapse monitoring is what I need to let me see where I just put something down (like my glasses) and now can't find!
Wish I had that much space. Lucky you!
Something very interesting in this video is to learn all the different ways you built stuff!
I have to agree completely with your horizontal surface theory, more is definitely better. I find that I can control the chaos on the surfaces that count such as the table saw and assembly by having other surfaces house the uncontrolled chaos.
Shop is looking good! Thanks for sharing the software. Cheers!
That small room with the WIndow reminds me so much of the Cellarroom in your old hose ...hmm...those were really good times :(
Hi I love your vids keep up the great work and also I love the marble machine 2.1 keep up the great work 😜👍🏻♥️😍😱🤣😂
Super gemacht und die Werkstatt ist ja riesig. Deine Videos sind immer sehr ansperechend. Grüße aus Oberfranken.
I love horizontal surfaces
That's so awesome you released your software on GitHub! Thanks for doing that. I am definitely going to check it out soon.
I wish I had that much space!!
Lights, cameras, action...
Maybe we are in for another blockbuster season. 🤔😁
Hope your health has improved significantly. Wish you all the best. 👋🏻
One idea I had was a static photo lights cluster. But roller tables & tool benches.
So that you move the project to the lights & can finely adjust things from that.
That many drawers and all my time would be spent looking through them for stuff. I'm def a John Heitz follower.
Matthias, I was laughing a lot with your "sidetracking" doing the shoptour... so recognizable that there's so much to do and always too little time.
Nice the shop tour, I always like to watch your videos and I like that you post something more often.
Love the shop...
Thank you for publishing the software. Very kind. :)
Soo much space. I only have a cramped garage that used to fit one car converted to a workshop and a small attic room. Seriously I am jealous.
Wow great progress!

"I really don't need that much space for a workshop," said nobody. Ever. Until today. You show uncanny restraint!
Looking forward to the SW video. Especially the UDP/Socket part. It's allways been a bit of a mystery to me.

The non-shop tour shop tour. I liked it.
The shelf rearranging alone was reason enough for me to start storing stuff in milk crates (most turned so their open end faces out, others like an open-top bin) and setting the crates on the shelves. Easy to rearrange many "small things" by moving very few "bigger things".
Rotary phone. Excellent.
Almost seems like it would be worth moving the stuff in the little shop to the big one. Then turn the little shop into an office or for deep storage.
Sounds like it’s time for a wood stove. Dual purpose as you have somewhere to put your scraps and sawdust.
Snowball effect. :)) Well, at least you have white walls now, always a good thing.
Maybe a Help for your heating problem:
In our shop we use a heating West (Heizweste) which you can Power with a Powerbank. You can buy them on Amazon for ~30€ here in Germany.
thank you. very nice. wish I had half that space to work in.
Me too!
Hi Matthias, love the shop, can you send some of your space to the U.K, our workshops are tiny in comparison. 😁
32m2 here in the UK hand built and I thought that was excessively generous....... Shows you how small and crowded the UK really is.......
UK is full, we are a small island of about 70 million, please stop coming here, we have no more space
@@ahuman6825 plenty of room in Canada still. It is all cold storage though.

no, we dont ask people that in public forums.

I've been wondering how the wrists are too.
