That before and after cut is just ridiculous. It’s amazing what you’ve accomplished with renovating this shop. Many great years will be spent here.
Suggestion, release the air pressure from the air system before you leave for the night. The less time the system needs to hold pressure, the more it will last. Highly recommend doing that. Other then that, great job
Also releases moisture from the system which is the biggest killer of pneumatics.
@@jonesy2009 massively agreed🤟🤟🤟🤟
Moisture is a huge reason bag kits fail on cars
But then it has to run a lot longer every day to get back up to pressure. There are ways to keep an air system moisture free. Like automatic drain valves and filter driers. I keep my compressor tank filled at home all the time, but I have an automatic drain valve that purges any moisture out, a couple of times per day.
@@Patrick94GSR This ^^^^
@@Patrick94GSR Yeah, our tank (I think its 80 gallon) has been left at full pressure for like 20 years and it's fine lol.
Definitely consider replacing the EXIT Sign / Emergency Light fixtures with something updated as well and don't forget your Fire Extinguishers. Your shop looks so awesome now!
@@Garciarebuild it's his for the next 3 years
@@casillas4501 basically he is doing all this work for the landlord to charge him more rent next time
Amazing transformation caleb!
Yo it’s my dad
i'd be curious to see a land lord reveal of all this crazy progress, i'm loving the new shop and watching these videos!
I knew it was gonna look good when you were done. I just didn't know HOW good! Really awesome man. So hyped to see you work in here. Hope that Electrician time lapse didn't hurt your wallet toooo bad.
There was a moment there when we were cleaning the shop that I was worried I wasn’t going to be able to get it to the level I wanted it to. But, the finished product is exactly what I dreamt of and I’m super pumped!
@@_Gingium_ maybe keep the doors white, i feel like the space would look a lot brighter with clean white doors
That before and after shot towards the end really shows how much of a difference you’ve made to that place. Just imagine what the rent would have been had you not done all the renovations yourself!
Fax, his work is incredible
Wow it looks like it's a brand new building at this point. Makes such a huge difference, good job! Might want to figure something out for the echo, maybe some thick black curtains that hang half way down the walls or something. Once you have more stuff in there it might be less an issue too though.
White canvas would work better, with enough extra length to make a 2ft repeating ripple to provide sound traps along the upper walls. Everything will catch some dust, but Black curtains are going look like dust-covered crap in a year's time, and videos need all that reflective white area to maximize the lighting for cameras down the working height.
I agree on the sound absorption! It will save your ears and make working more comfortable. You can fab up some basic square panels with cloth and insulation batts and hang them up. Great looking shop!
Bro wasn't lying. This shop has brought him viewership he hasn't gotten in nearly a year. Makes me so happy to see things going better with this new shop
Heck yeah lets go baby. Gonna brighten up my day homie.
The before and after is a true testament to what hard work can do. Looks fantastic
I use the air tools as a mechanic there perfect if you treat them right and care for them they last a long time and never run out of battery. But I use battery tools for doing stuff outside the garage and for taking wheels off cars,vans and trucks
Hi Lewis. Im Lewis. Im a tech too. I have air tools. Some 20 plus yrs old but every thing going to battery. Me too. When they make a DA sander on spray gun with battery then only thing with air will be blowing out stall and putting air in tires
Shop looks killer! 4:46 they way you put the Teflon tape on the threads(backwards) with the end of it in a loosing direction, it tends to unravel and not seal as good if you were to put the Teflon tape in the other direction. But killer videos keep up the hard work!
God damn that before and after is crazy.
You finally have a shop that fits your skills! Congrats bro!
went from looking like the bathroom from saw to an actual work shop. 10/10 amazing work mate.
All of us older subscribers are so happy to see you back in a shop, i know you're going to crank out some KILLER builds.
(the awd miata is one of my all time favorite youtube builds)
The shot of the air hose clipping into the new fitting was so satisfying.
Night and day difference amazing dude looks so much better a shop you can truly enjoy working in great work dude👍
Gonna need sunglasses in there lol
Woow! This just looks like gtav garage, amazing job! Probably every carguy is dreaming bout it. Nice to see you starting from a forza stuff and ending in this place, congrats!!
I love desperation on his face in the way he was acting when the fan fell down that was funny that’s why I love watching his videos he makes me laugh the whole time because I enjoy them you’re awesome can’t wait to see your next video and thank you
Good paint job, good floor paint up, good lighting..... And a good ventilation.... Thats what we need in a workshop that works!
Great work! Awesome when it all starts coming together. I kinda wish the LEDs in my garage where multicolor synched to a sound system. Make the space more fun being able to switch from regular light to club mode.. wake up the neighborhood backing out of the garage. 😎
found your channel through this series, its very inspiring and useful!
You know your landlord is SO happy with you. I hope he gave you the deal of a century on your rent man, because if someone deserves a deal it's you!
Please keep the shop this clean and keep it organized brother. Organization equals saved time. The place looks great 👍
amazing what new floors, paint and lights (plus weeks of hard work) can do for a space
Loving how the shops transformed. Cant wait to see what awesome projects happen there.
It's amazing how much you improved this garage, it's literally the opposite of what it was at the beginning
Wow what an amazing transformation of that shop..you should be proud of yourself!
Shop looks great now! Huge transformation
You can apply the teflon tape in the same direction as the threads so that it winds tighter as you screw on the fitting!
Looks amazing! You should fill the cracks in the concrete with some sika self leveling sealant to keep gunk/dirt out. If they’re deep you can fill it some backer rod first.
Sika is great stuff!
this is awesome man, super proud of you for not giving up or losing your way through the whole process
That before and after is simply exquisite.
The before and after shot is absolutely amazing. Looking forward to see your content for next year. Time flies
It sure looks OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't know if painting the doors black would darken the room??? Don't forget an exhaust port for each door!!! Putting them in will let you run a car when the weather is cold or when you just want privacy. Best Always,
Damn Gingium you're killing it right now with all those new additions to the shop, i'm so excited for the new videos and projects. I can't wait until all the cars move in.
Haven't even watched the video yet, just feel like I need to comment. I really look forward to all your videos man, been watching since Forza. Your life is definitely goals for sure. Glad to see you have a good woman that definitely has your back. Can't wait to see all the projects get some upgrades in the new shop!
You can use the Australia excuse. It's illegal to do your own electric, plumbing, etc and definitely voids your insurance if you're not a licensed tradesperson yourself. Lights on the walls will help cut down on the harsh shadows from the ceiling lights. Exciting times! 😎
Been watching your channel for a long time... back when you had the subie wagon!. Love seeing you progress and build your dream.. much love man!
The shop looks so fricken good!!! Just some paint a little touch ups makes a world of a difference
Most impressive. Hope you can stay in that shop and enjoy the fruits of your labor for many years.
Talk about transformation. This is insane. This shop makeover is really going to make the videos that much better! Love to see it!
4:47 tephlon tape is directional when you put it on... the way you've done it here will make the tephlon come off as you tighten.
The new shop is looking LIT, can't wait to see all the new content :D
The shop is coming a long good I’m glad you finally get to work inside in the shop 👌🏼
The before & after on this was completely badass. I’m so hyped to watch all the content that’s going to come from this new shop!
I gotta give it to you man, you got a SHITLOAD of drive. If you treat everything in life like you treated that shop, you will have everything you ever dreamed of and then some. Keep on Keepen on man
I'm not even a car guy and I'm following this series intently.
Nice work.
Honestly this has been a super satisfying process to admire so far.
Looking great! Can't wait to see the current fleet get all fixed up and all the new fabrication to come.
Love these shop videos you guys are putting in so much work on the shop the projects are gonna be even more exciting to watch!!!
If I've ever seen a case for reduced rent, this is it. You've turned this from a might need a full restoration/demo to wahey, this is looking great! :D
The shop looks awesome! Merry Christmas to you and Audrey!
I've been loving watching the transformation. I can't wait to see the cars in the new and shiny shop
looks so good. so happy for you man! cant wait for you to get back in your fabricating groove!
That before and after comparison is eye-opening! You did a great job man :D
Determination + vision equals this awesomeness. 🤓👍
It would be really cool to paint the beams a bright color, like yellow, orange, lime or pink ! Even a light blue could be cool ! It'd make the shop more unique and with a pop of color !
That turned out sick! Can’t wait to see your future videos in there!
Can't wait to see what you're going to build in this shop!!
I really admire your hard work and dedication resurrecting this well used garage back to life , I wish you many happy fulfilling years of work here and cant wait for any updates you might grace us with , big love from Ireland .
Absolutely insane how the shop turned out 🔥🔥
Am I the only one who feels guilty missing his videos? I'm all in on this channel. But, missed a few episodes. Sorry :( But, I'm back! And, I can't wait to see how much you can do in this space. So stoked. You and your team are still killing it. Camera woman (your GF? Sorry if I forgot her name.) and all. The before and after speaks for itself. Wow!
Great work to everyone who helped out!
Super impressed Caleb. Seeing the transformation is really satisfying and I hope that carries on to the future. I think some metal plating to cover up the cracks in the floor would look good, and you should get shop banners to cover up the ceiling. Maybe you could get some sponsors that way?
so happy for you and the shops progress, caleb! I came to your Chicago shop for the garage sale and I am so happy to see you in a nicer shop now. I cant wait to see how much this adds to your already entertaining videos!
This place looks so good now! I need some of those lights for my shop, they are bad ass! Can’t wait to see the builds in this shop. 🤘
Wild to see the difference between the original shop and what you've transformed it into. Excited to see some car building/modifying going on in the new space! good luck!
Did my guy say, “Gingnasium” lol…yessss im all for it
Love the renovation vids, can't wait to see all the cool builds you do here when it's all done.
the shop is looking crazy good!! so hyped for the projects to come.
The transformation is amazing. Please keep the doors white, with black hinges and black frame. That should pop + will reflet more light.
what a difference good for you love that shop have a great new year
I didn't realize this video was so new... Was ready to jump right to the next one. Great series!
we are happy to see you happy... nice job
Looking Nice Caleb! Looking forward to seeing the final product and the projects being started! Congrats on the shop!
Looks great now my man. Ready for some cars :)
Loving these videos. Happy to see you happy
This shop is epic. I think I would've done full span up-facing lights for the "ambient" lighting instead, though. That and paint the ceiling, but then again, I'm not the one to have done the work, so without that load and stress on me, it's easier said than done.
absolutely loving the shop vids, I just really hope he cleans that one crusty lift. bust out some degreaser and get that thing looking good and new again like the other in the shop :D
Dude the shop looks incredible! I can’t wait to see some high quality content out of the gingnasium
If shadows become a problem for shooting (can’t tell yet if they will or not) give uplighting a thought. Bouncing light off the ceiling has a way of filling in evenly around obstructions.
I am so happy for you with the new shop well done.
This was totaly worth your time now you and rest have a updated beatiful shop to do work
Your plumbing tip for the day is to wrap t tape in the direction you tighten the fitting to prevent it from unraveling while you tighten it up.
Holy crap! That lighting is beautiful. I love how the look is coming. Cant wait to see some stuff on the walls and tools and cars in that shop! Going to be amazing. Kinda lowkey would love some HKS kinda graphics on the black beams…just for a little pop of color! Or something on them maybe? It’ll look amazing when your getting settled in. Cant wait!
You probably added so much value to this guys building
Great work, love all the DIY and your a smart man knowing when to call in a pro.
Looks AMAZING!!!! Good luck for 2022, dude!!
This is amazing. I’ve been patiently waiting for all these uploads and you continue to deliver!!!!!
The lights just change everything
Looks amazing from what you started with. All will be worth it when you start wrenching in the new shop!
Glad to see Gingium getting into a shop. Dude works too hard to be rolling around outside working on cars
Another great Vlog Caleb.....and such a massive improvement 👍.......its a testament to all the work that you have done 😁😁😁 I can't wait until you are making your usual content 👍👍👍
This is amazing. Great transformation!
I watched from the start and man, you really did turn it into a dream shop. I hope all works out for you and a great way to start off a new year. Good luck 👍!
Hey Celeb. Just something I noticed as i'm watching. just to prevent future leaks to the air system. but you threaded your tape on backwards. It needs to go in the direction of the threads. it just tears itself apart if you go opposite.
Once that hyperlite were on.... The sharpness of you videos suddenly turns very sharp.... Thats cool man!
