This is not my area of expertise or business goal but I have a lot of respect for anyone who can get to this level in a garage. Love it when America is full of people with excuses and reasons why something can't be achieved and then you have this guy who is just getting busy doing it anyway. I started my business 24 years ago with a $300 loan from my mother so I can appreciate the dedication to the grind.
I'm a machinist apprentice and this looks like something I hope my future will look like
Dudes got it made! Congrats on the family and success
Not only a sleek operation and setup but looks like a great guy too...Lovely family...Keep up exploring and pushing boundaries Guy :)
It is so awesome to see the Versa Built technology gaining popularity. After 30 years in this industry there's not much that really impresses me but when I first ran across
these guys I was truly amazed. And since you are a garage band and you're using their system, it must be pretty good. Best of luck to you. It's a hard way to make a living
but there are unique satisfactions that come along with it. Well done so far, keep it up!!
I read this article twice when it arrived in my mailbox. Thanks for the video!
Well done mate, great looking setup. Look after that family and all the best for the future 👍🇦🇺
Congratulations!!! beautiful family, beautiful garage shop...

Dude is doing it right
I started watching this and was like "Who filmed me and I didnt know it!" lol nice shop and family, its weird but its like looking at my own.
It's amazing what he's packed into a garage shop and still has room to move around. Trying to find info on his actual prototyping business. I have my 3d printers and manual machines in my chop, but no cnc yet for small runs.
An article on him said the shop is: 20-foot-wide and 48-foot-deep garage/workshop with an 8-foot-high entry, skylights, and 220-volt electrical service.
My whole apartment fits in his garage.
this is a great video.
Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it!
Nice!!
So cool
Newest and biggest machine in the back of the shop? Guys magician or has some hidden doors. Regardless bravo, very well done setup!
I remember reading this edition, awesome
Thanks guys great video ,Dwayne newzealand.
Glad you enjoyed it
THOSE ROBOTS TOOK ERRR JERBS!!!
life goal.
Hiring as luttle people as possible is a key to success in a machine shop. I agree with that. Unless you plan to hire those kid of yours. 😝
I've worked at aerospace shops not this put together, impressive for a one man "garage"
Wow, the human behind the robots.
This dude is speaking my language.
Looks like you have a big garage.
"My little workshop in my garage..."
(Proceeds to show off over a million bucks worth of high tech CNC machines) 👀😎
Haas aren't very expensive. People buy cars and trucks that cost more nowadays. The double pallet CNC definetly costs a lot more. I bought a Haas TL-1 for about 20k and the VF I got was about 65k. I prefer these machines because I do 1 to 3 piece prototypes. The rapid on these machines can be slowed down a lot. I like to make sure it doesn't crash since sometimes I'm only doing one run
Is this the guy who had the video on Instagram of opening the garage fridge and cracking the corona? My dream right here
Lucky man
👌👌
How did you do the power?
Bro’s got a robot running 40 parts.
That probably cost $$$
Hey Guy. Awesome little shop. Just curious these being 3 phase machines (not sure if your at 460V) I'm in Canada and we run 575 3 phase. What are you powering these with? What type of converter are you using? Thanks
From Guy Driscoll: Yes I have 400 amps going to the property, 200 for the house and 200 for the garage and yes I am using a 20hp phase technologies phase perfect to power all four three phase machines (3 mills, 1 compressor)
@@modernmachineshop Thanks I was looking at phase technologies. I had a shop for 30 years sold all in 2014. Doing some teaching a a local college. But still want to tinker with old Harley or trucks
@@modernmachineshop Only a 20hp converter? I thought the standard was 2x the machines hp rating.
@@modernmachineshop He was asking if you're running these machines on 460 volts 3 phase. That's typically used in industry and not usually available for residential. In Canada, industrial power is 575 volts 3 phase.
👍
How do you get the work?

Why no demo of the Douson?
What do you think of an Enshu JE60 horizontal CNC mill as a first machine?
Like... ever? Not going to have near the support as other brands and that model is discontinued. Horizontals have their advantages, but they suck to use as a general machine. Unless you have a need for a horizontal, a vertical with TSC/A makes a lot more sense and is far more flexible.
Everything depends on what you want to make and how many you want to make.
How do you have enough power to your garage to power all those machines and assuming a compressor?!?
How small US shops run on 115V with rotary inverters with so much power consumption puzzles me !
@@SuperYellowsubmarin every house has 240v electrical supply, our standard electrical outlets are 120v with 240v for things like clothes dryers, electric stoves, well pumps, air conditioning, etc., so adding a subpanel to the garage is pretty easy to run these machines at 240v. I have a 100 amp 240v subpanel system in my basement to power all my wood and metalworking equipment, but I’m just a hobby guy. For the number of machines he has, he might have had a second power line added for the garage with a separate meter that would allow more power than a subpanel from the main house panel, but sometimes that depends on if the power company wants to add that or not.
Phase converters.
In order to run multiple machines in your garage like he's doing... You usually have to have an additional service line installed to provide the additional power. This man is NOT running all those machines on a common household circuit. -- He has a dedicated high-amperage service line installed from the pole to his shop & is using phase converters to provide the machines with 3-phase power.
@@ubergreenguru5704 Unlike laser cutters, those machines are not consuming crazy amount of amps. They are milling machines and typically go 15-20 amps each.
how big is your garage? :D
