Never underestimate the power of an Englishman and his shed; every bloody thing in the world, was invented in a British shed, in British weather.

[@tutekohe1361]

I love Sam’s little shed. It’s very well organised and he’s obviously very proud of it. Good on him.

[@SunshineSyl]

I’m super interested in his dust collection system-Jason please encourage him to share his social medias !

[@daylen577]

I honestly wish I had a shed like this. I have a garage with much more space, but I can't seem to get it organized in a way that's both useful and still leaves room for other stuff. Having a dedicated shed would be lovely.

[@rpaasse6453]

Exactly what i was thinking, and the view!!

[@Sams-Shed]

@@SunshineSyl I’ll try and share some information on it during the week! What do you want to know?

[@stanleydenning]

My shop is about the same size. I do all my work in late spring through early Fall. And yes. It sucks.

[@csimet]

My basement 400 sq. ft. shop is an absolute luxury compared. I no longer feel cramped, nor will I never complain about having to haul lumber down the stairs again. BTW... 20:10... I'm hungry now!

[@HyperCazual]

That was my first thought, too. I'm never going to complain about my small garage again!

[@IIGStewII]

My shop is about the same size. I'm at least blessed with an understanding wife that lets me use the car port for wood storage and long rip cuts on the table saw.

[@enfermocerebro89]

My shop is like 3 times this one... also have greenhouse, second smaller shop(still bigger, than this one), and bigger garden space.... I feel like a rich guy now... Anyway! The video is actually very inspiring, just because of the small shop (or more like "no shop") problems!

[@barberspaddockwoodworking]

Sam won the contest....and our hearts. What a trooper for being able to tell Jason 'no you come to my shop'. The result is perhaps my favorite Bourbon Moth episode ever. 😁

[@katieyeti4420]

Getting the full British DIY experience. Most tools in the shed, check. Not enough room so gazebo set up, check. Rain rain and more rain, check. Putting it together in the kitchen while everything sits in the living room, check. Cat (sorry British dog) in the way at all times, yup. Grandad showing up to show how it's supposed to be done, double check. 🤣

[@woody4431]

In my opinion Sam is legendary. Representing for the English sense of humour straight out of the blocks. Good man.

[@DimONMINIpeople]

Sam's sense of humour is awesome!!! Very fitting for the channel)))

[@StuHolmes]

The logistics around British woodworking is no joke. Most of the projects I’ve done have involved me kneeling on the floor of my kitchen, lounge and driveway. My back hurts just thinking about the bedside cabinets I still need to build. Good on you Jason for taking the time to see a patron in the UK 🇬🇧

[@simonblooddevay]

I remember building my workbench on the ground outdoors, in high British winds, spending the whole time thinking: "It would really help the build go more smoothly, if I had a freakin' workbench!"

[@pilsburypie1977]

Brilliant. This is real woodworking. More people have workshops like this than huge “shops” full of monster equipment and every Festool going. But the outcome was the same. Bravo!

[@grapheist612]

I remember my dad saying this was his problem with the show “This Old House”. The host, Norman, started with tools that any person might have, but by the end, he was only using multi-thousand dollar tools that most people wouldn’t have.

People like Jason uses a number of Festool products, but he doesn't flaunt them. I'm always on the hunt for new KZbinrs to subscribe to, and in some videos I watch, in the first minute, all you see is a wall of 30+ Festool boxes. I just turn them off and look elsewhere.

At least he has a shop. All I have is a back deck. And if it rains, the front covered porch. It takes me hours just to setup and take down.

[@davetay44]

Finally a true representation of what 90% of our "shops" look like. Mine is 1/3 of our garage. So basically the same amount of space as sam. If you need to do anything big you have to wait until its a nice day and do it in the garden. This was a great video thanks

[@AmbersweetCakes]

This is so English - the parents and grandparents hanging out on your sofa, watching you and offering bits of advice - some useful, some very much not so.

[@EverythingsOrange]

Isn't it. I feel Americans in general would handle this well though. People watching me and commenting makes me feel inadequate, especially a "knowing better" granddad but my Floridian cousin doesn't even flinch 😂

[@fylusdoes]

This is gold! 😂 now you can see what we have to work with in the UK. While you guys rolling in giant warehouses you call shop 😂😂

[@carlosee88]

This is basically the same as my old shop/shed. My new one is smaller.

[@glww2966]

I work in a storage unit

[@K8Stuff]

I’d fail here to even find a lumber merchant lol

[@ipick4fun27]

Not everyone in America has a shop. My shop is basically a much smaller pop-up tent on my drive way. I even have to use the chop saw outside. But Sam is killing me with one blade swapping back and forth. The table saw and sliding saw should each have their own blade because they should have different hook angles for optimum performance. Also there's lots of time wasted keep switching back and forth.

[@jaymzx0]

I live in an apartment and have a ground floor patio that doubles as a shop. It too has an 'outdoor table saw', as well as an outdoor router, drill press, chop saw, and sander. Instead of a shed, I have a very manly-appearing dining room with a bunch of tools in the corner!

[@PaulMasonUK]

The most relatable video you've ever made! Sam's shed is beautifully British 😍

[@HesTNTonPMS]

[@davidshorb7453]

This is spectacular. And a perfect 1st for your collaboration contest. Not everyone has a 1000+ Sq ft shop. Sam's little shed is probably more akin to most shops than he may think and you guys showed that Sq footage isn't as important as the desire to do.

[@jamesdennett196]

So glad I found this episode. Firstly, huge respect for honouring the contest to the fullest extent and doing this project with such meagre resources. Secondly, in all fairness to Sam, by our standards in the UK, that's a pretty well appointed shed. He should be very proud. Thirdly, so cool how Sam took you into his home/family life, and how you integrated. Says a lot about you both and made for a really special video. If I wasn't already subscribed, I definitely would be after watching this. Absolutely fantastic.

[@nowherewoodcraft]

This video is a balm for our troubled souls at a time when so many conflicts test us. Jason and Sam gave us a nicely focused education in woodworking while demonstrating hospitality, charity, humility, and humor. What a wonderful world is woodworking!

[@lindaferguson-muldowney2995]

Smart man that Sam. Engineering quite the shop out of a shed and a tent, multi-purposing his living space, and hot swapping blades and putting the money into the domino joiner was genius. This was an incredible video. That bed is beautiful and will last a lifetime. I enjoyed this so much

[@spooforbrains]

This video was just a big delight from beginning to end

[@jodilea144]

I think this is my favorite of your videos thus far. Sam has definitely made the most of his tiny shed-shop and it makes me appreciate my space a bit more - although not much larger, I can use my table saw inside. Great work all around - and I love the bed! 😊

[@FrankieJeal]

This has to be my favourite video of yours of all time.

[@bengla]

Totally outstanding video. As someone (also in England) whose first ‘shop’ was a disused 8x6 plastic greenhouse, I am truly impressed by Sam’s shed. I also have to take my table saw outside to use it but I have two blades! No domino joiner though… More of this kind of thing please! Sam, when are you starting ‘Sam’s Shed’ as a channel?

[@brianpage1886]

I just loved this video. I moved to the UK about 5 years ago from Canada. If you want lumber over here, you have to track it down and buy it from someone who mills it. My wife and I renovated an old house remotely. I sent the architect drawings for my shop. The builder decided that no one needed a shop that big and shrunk it by 1 meter. I ended up with a glorified hallway. Most of the local trades people work out of the back of their van so what would they know? I have tried to squeeze in my proper table saw, drill press, jointer, planer, chop saw and dust extractor. The builders asked what my 10 inch General saw was. They had never seen something like it before. It is like the shell game. The best solution I could come up with is to put all of the big tools on castors and move things around like a valet parking lot. I work outside as much as I can but the weather here can be quite bad. A 3/4 inch sheet of ply that I had on sawhorses in the back yard got blow up in the air by a gust of wind, broke a wall mounted light fixture and they landed about 20 feet from where it started from. Luckily I was in the house on a lunch break. It was really nice to see you come and adapt to local conditions. You have a lot of patience. If you are ever at Disneyland in California, it is like 'Small World After All'. That is what it is like here. I have two acres and it is mind boggling to most people here. Kids ask 'Why is your garden so big?'. Sorry about our food.

Welcome to England. One of the things that I’m always amazed by, as a UK woodworker, is how massive US workshops are. I’m lucky enough to have a shop that is 26.2 x 10.8 feet. I still moan about that, but I’m very grateful for it. The first thought that went through my head when Jason said he was coming to the UK was “This should be interesting” knowing that he was bound to be working in a restricted space. I must admit, I wasn’t prepared for how restricted. Good job at making such a small space work though.
