Blake Builds A Bike Cave Ep.3 | Mountain Bike Isolation Workshop Project

[@dylanmartin6405]

blake is honestly one of the best dads alive

[@Cous1nJack]

He spent 6 days in the garage and stole his toys. Honestly?

[@Peter-ss1vb]

Yeah but he stole his boy's logs

[@NZ_Hori]

Imagine having Blake as you dad you would be so lucky

[@rhysdodd7030]

Peter 4523 they are probably ones he didnt play with so he just used it

[@graysonbryant4710]

Facts

[@kendokaaa]

I love how UK youtubers tend to play drum and bass in the background. It's a very underappreciated genre in North America

[@joshsmgb7890]

Brake levers as door handles 🙏

[@steeki2518]

Yesss! That the idea mennnn

[@steeki2518]

Lol

[@steeki2518]

Haha

[@hamjes]

Or old grips

[@harveysyates]

These 'Blake Builds a Bike Cave' videos are absolutely fantastic!! They're so good that I'm having an identity crisis as a Mountain Biker, as I'm hanging out for these episodes more than any others on GMBN or GCN!! Spectacular job, Blake! And... You're right... It's all about the cake!

[@repapeti98]

I wish I was this cheerful. He might not be the best caprenter who ever lived, but he's doing his best and the finished work speaks for itself. Huge inspiration for me to help my dad renovate his workshop this summer.

[@repapeti98]

The only thing I don't understand is how he calls his wife "The wife". I know it's a commonly used English phrase, but it feels kinda derogatory. Maybe that's just me.

[@judearevill1390]

Can we get a clip of Blake doing what his character is doing in the animation? Just him waving his drill around smiling, dancing etc... just seems like a Blake thing to do.

[@woodworkerroyer8497]

I mean, does he ever STOP waving and dancing and smiling? Lol

[@397jmc]

The bike cave is looking sweet. Just dont drive a screw in to that hidden gas pipe buddy!!!!

[@BigFellerJosh]

My thoughts exactly lol

[@adrocka]

So glad someone said this

[@rileykuys8222]

Hey Blake & GMBN, just a suggestion, you could put a small piece of carpet in the corner of your bench for when you are working on your bike and working with delicate parts. Thanks for the vids love them & keep it up,

[@DeeJayEll]

Never mind Blake’s building skills, did you see that Victoria sponge? Mrs Blake is the true hero of this build! 👍

[@joshiles6570]

Best thing gmbn have ever put out, Blake’s carpentry skills are actually on point

[@69mjar]

Man you are a trip! I have to say, someone who has never done carpentry work you sure have lots of tools and plenty of skills. Doing a phenomenal job.

[@davidemmett1174]

Hi Blake. I’m a carpenter and joiner with over 20 years experience and I have to say you are doing a lovely job man! I know lads who have been in the trade years who couldn’t do as good! God bless you and all that sail in you dude!! 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@P1LOTacE]

Most likeable person, crazy creative and at the moment my favourite series. Keep going

[@skotty1962]

Thank you Blake for sharing your family with us. Mrs Blake and your son seem amazing.

[@dmw0lton21]

Absolutely loving the progress of this build..the amazement on Blake's face doing carpentry is motivation enough for anyone to have a go, creativity is endless!! Charlie is going to be a character following your footsteps 🤘

[@joni21boni46]

He used his sons toys to build a shelf 😂😂👏

[@Zimblake]

100% Hahahaha

[@MightyMellow840]

Payback for the Picasso

[@benmagee1751]

Biggest recommendation I'd make is; build a pair of garage doors! A good pair of doors in place of that flimsy up-and-over thing will revolutionise the way you use the garage and will gain you a load of usable wall space!

[@lilsnelf]

More videos with "Little man" ! We enjoyed, thanks! I LOVE IT!

[@onel810]

I could watch this build videos everyday. I didn't know that he's a well craftsman. Damn, Blake. So much talent.

[@PimSchouten]

4:22 mini Blake entertaining big Blake. Love it man. So cute!!

[@Quevallyn]

“I still don’t know how to index gears.” 😂 My lockdown project is a 26inch, 7spd cafe cruiser and I’ve gone with a friction thumbie because I can’t index gears.

[@jackhewitt7902]

Andrew Kirk sounds like a really cool bike

[@lauriewessel5978]

blakes quote of the year: "welcome back you beautiful people"

[@olliefranks2341]

Wouldn’t be a gmbn video without it 😂😂

[@Mersuharrastaja]

@@olliefranks2341 Sadly I ugly people are not welcome back. :(

[@olliefranks2341]

Mersuharrastaja 😂😂 I’m screwed then

[@tomp329]

more like of the century

[@benjaminostling2446]

Yes

[@Chaka1337]

Blake is like the most humble and joyful person out there. Keep it up, Blake. Your videos make my days! Cheers from Germany.

[@dewindoethdwl2798]

Blake’s Bike Bunker is shaping nicely. Huge reorganise of my shed inspired by this series🤘🏻

[@brandonhansen5409]

I'm interested to see how you hang your tools. If you weren't considering it, you may replace the OSB with pegboard (you already have the gap behind it). It's the best since you can customize it endlessly with hooks of all shapes and sizes and move things around without any problems. It's looking awesome!

[@nigelfox6683]

Giving me a lot of inspiration for a garage build once we’ve had some building work done... I’d be tempted to give all the wood a coat of clear varnish. It will bring the “grain” out of the wood and seal everything nicely. Definitely the work top as that’s going to need something to help it last and repel oils and liquids 👍

[@thefullstop23]

Blake is possibly my favourite presenter of all time. Not just for GMBN, but for all of KZbin. No lie.

[@layspeed]

Damn, people actually watched this and gave it a thumbs down? I feel so sorry for those poor souls. I could watch this stuff everyday. Blake is a legend! His enthusiasm is contagious and you can tell how genuine he is. And the man's got some serious skills.

[@davidhudson5668]

Perfect spot for a TV, mount it on the front of the gas meter cabinet! It'll use the space nicely. Awesome project 👌

[@emilkrol4816]

It would be awesome if you install lights under the new shelf you buildt in this video so you have a good lighting on your tools under it.

[@YavorM-Yash]

First thought about it.

[@django1364]

Yeah build in a way when you open the doors it will come on, and turn off when they are closed.

[@willshawyer7280]

BLAKE YOU ARE SUCH A COOL DAD! Any other dad would FLIP if their toddler went into the work garage with a bunch of dangerous stuff and started scribbling on the wood Can you be my dad Blake?

[@bartobszynski9417]

Man, I love this series, I'm always checking the GMBN channel to see if another episode has released. Keep up the good work Blake

[@christiaangeenen3093]

Blake please dont put your arm or hand in front of your chisel. If your chisel shoots out you will cut your arm. Ive been there not fun. Bikecave looks great keep up the good work.

[@paulcarpenter2670]

Such a ledge and an awesome watch Blake even the missus sits and watches and loves your carpentry skills looking forward to episode 4 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@KDog2264]

Blake you should put a top on your counter, it looks like some little stuff can fall through, plus if you spill any liquids it is going to drip down on your stuff below. Plus you should paint everything ( when you can ) it will protect the wood and if you use a light paint it will help brighten things up, with the lighting. Love the build episodes and your son has the same look as you when he eating cake, the almost Scooby-Doo reaction to Scooby-snacks.

[@donbenincasa7442]

Lighting, lighting, lighting...create ambiance with some indirect light! It will make your tea and biscuits time even better 🍺

[@marcdernison5981]

Great build Blake, you are a true inspiration!! For safety may I recommend that you indicate where the gas pipe behind the tool wall is, so you will not mistake when you screw in tool holders.

[@fairyhardcore]

Stainless steel worktop cover would be epic as a long term plan. We did our kitchen with it for under £150 and it's amazing. Easy to clean as well 🤘

[@darrenkiteley4643]

I just love these. So therapeutic. More Blake Builds please. Boats, Bridges, Batcave!!!!🤓😂👊

[@bastianse]

love the missing finger in Blake's character... proper carpenter!

[@mukulamechanics7241]

I love the way black is so nice and happy all the time,even the way he starts the video welcome back you beautiful people.black you are the man

[@PeterDiCapua]

Nice job Blake. Don't forget some good lighting. You can never have enough light when you doing work late into the night. Also dont forget for some vibration and sound insulation for the compressor area.

[@kirawr8064]

This is one of the most entertaining videos i have ever seen. Blake has such a great spirit and the kid is so cute🤣🤣

[@michael_emtb]

What a fantastic video!! Cake, tea, little man, good lady and Blake's enthusiasm!! Awesome!! Giving me loads of ideas for my new bike cave!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻❤

[@cornishcactus]

Mark on your tool wall where that pipe is, don't want to be drilling a bracket into that!! Little man is growing so quick!

[@doctajuice]

For somebody who claims not to know what he's doing at every step, Blake is quite skilled at all this.

[@Ethan-xq5bo]

Love this build series. My fiance and I are closing on our first house at the end of May! Couldn't have better timing, the garage is not finished and thats all I've been thinking about! Love the energy, love the humor, you are the man.

[@mouthbreathermtb4192]

What a happy fella! He should do this more often

[@brapamaldi]

was expecting to see that biscuit break off into the cup at 6:34, haha. never a good time. also love the pushbike rack on your motorbike, something i gotta set up on one of mine at some stage.

[@agus8080]

This episodes are only getting better and better!! Coolest bike cave ever! Stay cool!

[@sikadbikeworx]

Knods for all the drawers 👍 and also love the shelves ❤️ I've never seen it before 😂 looking forward on the next episode 4 👍👍👍

[@ZeroSeriesMMX]

TBH Charlie's entry is well damn useful... One thing I should consider for my own bike cave (once I build one) is that it should be child-friendly, with primary focus on safety, for anyone visiting/using the cave.

[@lewisatkinson7277]

Blake the display shelves are McGuiver level quality! Fair play mate. This is so cool.

[@lucasbergman5150]

Hey Blake nice to see you making the most of lockdown. Proper cave isnt it! Lighting and white wall paint really transform caves into semi professional workspaces. Storage space is also key in tiny spaces, are you also going to use the space above the gas meter for longer/inconvenient/longstay storage? Oh and one last tip ... Bins n baskets mate! Never have enough of Them :) especially see-trough and labeled ones, bet Doddy would be jeaulous. Houdoe! From the Netherlands

[@ashleyedwards6789]

can we have the longer videos because watching Blake is so fun to watch.I want to build the same thing as Blake now.

[@stingraydave9216]

OMG you have me in stitches. Keep em coming dude. You should call it Blake’s Big Beautiful Bike Barn

[@aakos26]

Fantastic build. Maybe round of the work top corner by the two cabinet. Can cause lot of bruises on your hip and soon it's on little man's eye level. Also I'd think a good seat somewhere for your son. He'll sit there happily And watch you fiddling on your bikes.

[@AndrewFearn42]

At this rate I hope the isolation continues. Came over from GCN Show as wretched roadie, but I'm a sucker for shop projects. Looking forward to more!

[@jarydbrickhill4708]

At 10:20 only South Africans will understand, Blake your amazing

[@lino8592]

2:44 got some major skills bro😂👀

[@tonyo4984]

This is a mega DIY build Blake, you are doing a gr8 job mate. I see a few comments about security of the garage door and those old up and over doors are crap. Obviously you can spend and spend on New doors, alarms etc!! but we all have our limits. I fitted Enfield garage bolts on the base of my doors they don't cost a lot and I think provide a pretty good level of security.

[@morgannicolon]

Poor Charlie! He helped you drawing the cutting lines and you stole his toys!🤣🤣 Never thought it would so entertaining to build a bike cave... I want a house to be able to build my Mo's Bike Cave!!

[@nosreuter]

The cave is starting to look really dialed Blake. Makes me wanna finish mine completely and send it in to GMBN Tech! Btw, my first motorbike was a Honda CB 650 from -82, nice engines in those CB:s!

[@wavydavey5134]

ill tell you what for having "no carpenter experience" you're doing a pretty damn good job lol

[@andybrad4721]

Oh my word that's some confident biscuit dunking!!!!

[@rogejenkins8901]

Blake, you could have made the wall unit with hinges at the top - to make gull-wing doors to get them right out of your way. Although you'd probably need handles on the inside so that you can close them 🤔🤣

[@akluoma]

Nice job man. I would suggest you to mark the gas line on the wall board so you won't break it after few years and forgetting it's there. Also why not use torx screws for building stuff so you would not round any screws even if you need to undo the for some reason. Inspiring work mate. Making me rethink of my plan for my bike cave :)

[@benhouston2132]

Just bought an GMBN metal mug based on Blake's impromptu home commercial. I got a hat too while I was at it. Keep making these types of videos please.

[@gmbn]

Thanks Ben! Will do!

[@willshawyer7280]

YAY PART 3 MY FAVOURITE 15 MINUTES OF THE DAY

[@cals.9269]

Currently obsessed with Man/ Bike Caves in these lockdown times.....Seth from Seth's Bike Hacks has a lot to answer for ! Keep the prime content flowing please GMBN !

[@danhoyle3173]

Hello Blake! I see that you are local round Bath and Winsley. I saw you out at Warleigh Woods today in your Jeep! Keep up the good work!

[@frontierfishingwithRyanMacD]

Thats awesome seeing you getting it done with your wee little man charlie lending a hand.. good job!

[@dustyvinyl6687]

I just wanna go out and make something myself just because Blakes attitude makes it look fun

[@TheYoeddie2005]

Thanks for the family side coverage. Happy wife happy life.

[@achmedalahabibi]

This is my favorite series!!

[@LongPeter]

Episode 3.9 clear coat everything! A food-safe interior clear coat looks great, protects from oils and doesn’t gas you out.

[@paulsmtbrides]

It's looking really good Blake. I really like that little corner shelf.

[@johnnewell3530]

Great build series Blake. Do make sure you have easy access to the gas isolation lever.👍

[@EISENKARL321]

Would love to see some old Bike Stuff used as handles for the Doors😍Brilliant Video👍🏼keep on😀

[@MattGlynn]

That is definitely happening on mine 👍🏼

[@IndianaHannah]

"This is the most carpentry thing ive ever done"😂😂 dudes got skills! Love it.

[@jesseh2]

This series is great. Build a covid campervan this year and great to see your similar experience. Lots of fun, mistakes and (hinge) frustrations. Plan for this spring is to build mountainbike drawers and to buy a mountainbike 😅

[@gmbn]

Hey @jessehup, Blake is currently building the dream mountain bike van, which he's turning into a bit of a campervan. Episode 1 is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXTQloqdfbuNf5I Enjoy!!🤟

[@sgunnragg6479]

Awesome cave. Great episodes to watch. Looking forward to the fourth one !!

[@gregobrien5314]

Really enjoying these Blake builds episodes!! The bike cave looks amazing!!

[@bruceevans3649]

Dude GMBn are such a inspiration to us all during this time and this build has been sick to watch and inspired me so much!

[@yassirbalbeid9505]

Wow, amazing skill. A dream bike garage. Well done blake. 👍👍👍

[@te2019]

Great build, Blake! Have you considered cabinet door hinges that slide or flip up horizontally for the overhead storage unit? Banging your noggin against open doors wouldn't happen. Cheers!

[@DragonM3D]

Looks amazing Blake! Hope that electric box doesn't get too hot to be enclosed like that. Keep it up!

[@droneboy1562]

What an incredible job your doing, hat off to you sir. Looking forward to the final touches in the next episode

[@5springsadventure877]

I'd never get away with it but I'd happily fit out my kitchen in exactly the same way if I could! I need to sort out my garage first though : )

[@damiandavids1809]

Blake seems like the most chilled out dude ever. Digging this series 🤙🏻🤙🏻 been renovating my garage as well while being on lockdown and love the cupboard ideas. Keep it up ma dude 🤘🏻

[@mikieson]

WOW..some good work there Blake.You have some good carpentry skills dude. Keep being RAD!!

[@finnjennings6431]

You should add a massive sink to wash all of your kit. This series is the best

[@rodp2310]

Really enjoying the build. - great stuff Blake. 👍 looking forward to the bike storage - I have a small shed with four family bikes to store as well as garden and tool stuff. I’m on lockdown bike rack build v6.1 and still can’t find a compact solution - bikes are a real pain to store. - those handlebars!. Need another shed. 😀

[@nathanstahl4066]

Love this little series. Blake is the best👍👍

[@SamuelLudden]

Love watching. Keep on keeping on my man! You're an inspiration to us all!

[@JunoBanuno]

LED strip under the cupboard shining into the tools YEA!

[@boopo100]

Really want to do something like this when I get a garage! You should look into using french cleats for movable storage of all sorts.

[@thomasberry2632]

Nothing better than a biscuit with a bit of wood particles to give it that extra taste of amazing

[@mrpauledwards]

6.32 - Excellent dunking technique.

[@dalepadley1588]

Careful you don't go through that gas pipe when you mount your tool. Love this series!

[@peterburrows8219]

Came to say the same thing. Might be a good idea to put a subtle marker on the board or the bottom of the cabinet above to indicate the location of the concealed pipe.
