The Skilled Stache

[@SethsBikeHacks]

I can’t wait to visit, and descend into the Kmetzacombs!

[@nicholas787nicholas]

perfect name. educating the viewers whether they like it or not! haha

[@neo49bullet]

I think Seth got the right idea, there's a creepy vibe, so I would definitly go for something like "Kmetzacombs" or "Phil's Excellent Bike Cave" or the "Bike Cave" :)

[@montajfilms0]

Seth's Bike Hacks massive fan

[@jgomezmoreu]

Lol, I was thinking about your garage while seeing this. You got the perfect name!

[@benjones5439]

It puts the oil on the chain, or lse it gets the soap again

Careful with that vacuum cleaner, some of those cobwebs might be structural!

Structural cobwebs can be replaced with structural posters.

@Park Tools...... HOOK THIS MAN UP WITH A SETUP LIKE SETH HAS. Cant wait for the future videos Phil

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I have most of the tools I need, maybe down the line!

[@Leo_Inclan]

At least a proper workstand. The ones Phil set up are practical, but nothing beats the real deal.

he has one, they are just other ways to hold his bike up

Thanks Mathew!

[@RGCastro7]

Congratulations on graduating, Phil! You rock, man. That's a lot of work you've put into the basement, but it's definitely been worth it. It looks really good so far, and I'm sure you'll be very happy in the end. It was really cool to see Hailey helping you out. You guys are an awesome couple!

The tribute to your Dad is really the icing on the cake. Great work dude!

[@michaelregan427]

Nice workshop having brickwork surrounding the shop makes it look awesome too. Always more fun wrenching when you've got a nice designated spot

[@mikebussart2575]

Congrats on graduating and looking forward to more videos. You may not be master craftsman but you built yourself a killer little bike shop, excellent job.

[@Sycoholic]

Not a clue what to name it, but I like the rustic look you get with the brick. Really spot on!

[@TheMoreWeExplore]

Awesome, congrats on graduating! Being done with school was one of the happiest days of my life. The #1 thing I miss most about a non-nomadic life is having proper tools and a workshop. Looking great!

[@AmarOriginal]

I LOVE these type of building-setup videos, especially ones with bikes!

[@sportyguy1200]

Glad to see you back ....any shop is good ....you did a good job...... Phil's skill shop sounds good to me

[@marcosmadrazo2440]

Congratulations Phil !!!! The cave looks awesome !!!!

[@jimothyTX]

Phil - Congrats on graduating and it is great to see you back at home and starting on your "full time" KZbin journey. Cant wait to see all the great content!

[@patdrumm3770]

Phil this was fantastic! Its great to see a realistic bike cave that is accessible to really anybody. I'm glad to have you back to full time youtube and cant wait to see what you have in store for us this summer. Ride on!

[@sevensinsvelocityshop7563]

Definitely a nice little work shop man, good thinking

[@SHREDD-ED]

Damn good job! You made your Dad proud! Great touch with his name....

[@thegooniverse495]

Great to see you back Phil! I missed you!

[@meredithmcconvill296]

So many good ideas from this. Thanks Phil!!

[@raheemgahelable]

Great job, Phil!! Glad you're back, buddy!

[@Silvia0073]

Love it! So happy you'll be doing this full time!

[@mrs9740]

Philosophical Metzcave..love the addition of the foam flooring don't have to worry as much about breaking things when they drop. Also an addition to the room could be a diy nail/magnetic sweeper using speaker magnets to pick up dropped and "lost" metals :)

[@dasanoneia4730]

Congratulations great to see you back. nice work on your shed looks good

[@fathernojoy2706]

Love it Phil, good work brother.

[@checknate8820]

Lol. If this was me, I would have finished the basement and then built a bike shop. The set up looks awesome!

[@jarentevi]

Looking good Phil! Excited for your channel to grow and congrats on your graduation

[@kez2252]

Congrats and great job on the shop!

[@ClintGriffin1]

Congratulations on graduating! I am excited to have you making videos full time! The shop is looking great. You could call it The Fortress of Philitude!

[@callummack7098]

Congratulations finishing school! This will surely make way for some more convenient trips and rides.

[@Setteegang]

Love the basement, nice to see you reusing as much as you could. Congrats on graduating. Looking forward to seeing what you do as a full time KZbinr :)

[@Wilderness_Recon]

Great video. Constructing anything is learn by doing imo. I have been inspired by your description of self leveling concrete. My garage floor is super wavy in spots. Looking forward to your next video. Congrats on finishing up school!

[@thesambasoccer]

Good to see your back making videos again !

[@Soupstock7]

This is amazing! I’m so glad your ba m full time. Looking forward to some great content! Awesome work on the basement

[@danielsprehe]

Place looks sick. That flooring is such a good idea, i might have to copy that. For the vacuum, i picked up a free busted house vac that had a detachable hose, dismantled and fixed it, then screwed it to a wall. Gives me a fixed vac right at my work station that is always plugged in, so no excuse to not clean up (and it was free)

[@melissamorfin4076]

So glad you are back!!!

[@beastreleases4677]

Big fan Phil can’t wait to see the progression of the shop

[@TheWickedRuts]

Excited that you will be devoting 110% into KZbin I always enjoy your videos and cant wait to see what you bring with all this

[@RRMMTB]

Shop looks good, Phil. Thanks for making jorts cool again!

[@colinhawkins8265]

[@theclassicd3720]

Congrats on graduating! Love the videos and this new shop you built. You should call it The Stache

[@nickgiannopoulos8087]

great job phil amazing shop.Also we are glad you graduated mate!

[@freerangemtb]

Somehow I missed the notification of when this video went up. So I'm a bit late in with this, but congratulations on your graduation! I've missed seeing your videos these past few months. Good to see you back. I appreciated this video, as I am now in the need to build up a workshop of my own. I rent my current residence, so I'm going to have to come up with something that's portable and easy enough to move to a new house if and when the time comes. Stay upright and keep the rubber side down.

[@andy7163]

Stoked to see my favourite KZbin channel is full time.

[@calivino88]

Looks amazing! Looking forward to your use of the cave!

[@Leo_Inclan]

Congratulations on graduating, man! The shop already looks amazing and I'm sure it'll only get better. I'll be happy to be able to see you uploading more often.

[@menjavlafitta]

Good job guys! One of the best feelings is the satisfaction from finishing a project like this! :D

[@westoe]

Congrats on graduating! Barely started following you and Seth and loving your guys videos. Keep up the great work and really digging the new basement setup.

[@lesleyzimmerman5114]

Congrats on graduating. The Phil Shack is a cool name. Keep the videos coming. Happy riding

[@larvitardratini5965]

Phil I'm a skier who got super obsessed with mtn biking while I was in Oregon a few summers ago. I ended up buying a bike of my own when I got home and I've been using it all the time but I never learned how to maintenance a bike. With skis, especially for racing, there is a ton of tuning and maintenance that must be done to make the skis perform well. I'm wondering if you could make a bike tuning/maintenance video for people who are sick of taking it to the shop every time something doesn't feel right. Maybe like a checklist of important things to look at before riding or things that should be changed after a certain number of rides.. etc. Thanks!

[@ZacJones]

Congrats on your graduation! Digging the bike shop build!

[@scottgerstenberg9551]

Woohoo! Congratulations! I am more excited for selfish reasons tho...I get more Skills with Phil videos!

[@OPXPM]

Great project, makes me wanna work on improvements for my workshop. I particularly like your pliers rack

[@edson1976]

Nice to see you back man! Love your videos, can't wait for more.

[@gromhub]

Dont doubt this space dude its EPIC! And i think the bike bunker is suited to its under house novelty

[@its_generik]

Phil! Your the man, everyone’s human! One day I’ll run into you on the trails 🤞🏼🤙🏼

[@gspiggity]

Nice job, looks cool can't wait to do similar in my own place!

Congrats on graduating mate - love your videos! :)

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Looks great Phil, home of many future how to vids for sure.

[@davidshirley3192]

Looks great - about to start similar project, weighing up benefits of stand alone bench versus attached to wall.

[@seandan68]

LOL self leveling concrete! that's a good one! anything liquid is!

[@quintendewit3220]

People you never make mistakes you are just learning and keep doing what you wanting to do

[@nosreuter]

@Skills with Phil Come spring I'm planning on fixing my own bike shop in a small storage area. Have seen this video when it came out but went back to it now for inspiration in the planning process. Thoroughly enjoyed this video, great work both planning, executing and filming/editing! A FOLLOW UP would be awesome, maybe something this winter could be useful for? Cheers 🍺

[@ColinBarling]

Good to see you finished college mate congrats & can't wait for more video's Exo video by the way.

[@toddbalsley9358]

Love this video i just built my own little workshop in a big garden shed

[@wagnerapinheiro]

Congrats on the graduation! It's nice to work on projects that couldn't be done when you didn't have time. I'm also doing some remodeling at my house and I know how rewarding that is.

[@bigayal1979]

Well done Phil. I am impressed of your thoughtfulness regarding the details 👍 can we have a new bike check vid? Telling from the pictures you changed some stuff on your calling. Best !

[@eamonkelly9007]

Congrats Phil! I'm sure your dad would be proud. My custom headset cap is a subtle memorial to my late father.

[@jackadler5941]

Shop looks great. Congrats on your graduation and nice to see Hailey again.

[@KiwiNewellLimited]

Looks AMAZING cant wait for more videos!

[@Wannaridebikes]

Nice job. I love it. And still you do great videos.

[@MozuProductions]

Place looks good Phil! As for what is missing? Maybe just more lights, but it looks great!

[@TheMoreWeExplore]

During my van build, I discovered the Kreg R3 pocket screw tool. It's AMAZING for joining pieces of wood. I've used it hundreds of times. Just a little tip for a brother in case you end up building more stuff like this.

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I've seen a bunch of youtube channel suggesting a pocket screw jig. I will most likely invest in one down the line as I it would have made this project a whole lot easier!

[@gte717v]

Your shop only needs a solid bench and good lights to see by. Best of luck!

[@tsukasa101]

nice setup Phil !!!

[@MTBPlanB]

Huge transformation already. Carpentry skills with Phil.

[@tmysty]

Nice work guys!! I really like that floor color. Tip for the screws. drill a pilot hole and then use some wax on the screw threads. you can just strike it across and old candle or even a bar of soap. Try it and you might like philips head crews again..:-)

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I had to drill pilot holes for some of the screws, but I'll have to give that wax trick a go!

[@mccreadymtb6043]

so sick man happy for ya! Congrats on graduating and looking forward to some great content ahead!

[@willbros1499]

Nice work! I think the FIRST thing I would have done is hit a dept. store and gotten a spray bottle of Ortho Home Defense 12 month bug spray. It used to suck having to pull the trigger 4 million times, but on the new ones you just pressurize it, and then hold the trigger down and it sprays continuously. I have a buddy who is in the bug business, and he said that's the same stuff they use, so unless something odd happens and you have an infestation , it will work as a barrier to keep bugs out for just about everyone, provided you apply it well. I don't have any clever names for the new workshop, but it's awesome that you're going to be full time on KZbin now! Looking forward to a summer of video shenanigans!

[@hyw079]

You're giving me ideas to do the same with my basement.

[@ToogyHowser]

Nice! Really transformed the basement! Glad to see a video from you, was getting withdrawals haha
