My old boss used to go crazy every day when I would down tools 15 minutes before finish and clean up, tidy and organize my welding bench and work area. He considered that I was wasting his time and money... Needless to say, every morning I was far more productive for spending those 15 minutes the previous day. Not only that but it helps to wind down after a busy day and makes you feel better at the start of a new one. The bonus was that it irritated the crap out of one of the nastiest individuals that I have ever had the misfortune to meet = )

My cousin worked in logging and at the end of each day he would spend 5 minutes spraying down the outside of his machine. Get to the end of the week and he could spend 20 minutes giving the outside a good clean before heading home to his family, while all his colleagues end up spending a couple of hours getting their own machines clean. A small amount of time lost now for large amounts of time gained later!

Slow steady and switched on is a lot easier than trying to fix things later. Maybe 30 yrs ago we were doing a small stepped flat roof, it was basically a huge box gutter at the bottom of a few pitched roofs ending at a gable ( sorry if it’s hard to picture) It maybe had 7 bays which dropped 75 mm to each next one, and all would be covered in lead…. I did the first one on my own, gave it a decent run… These new guys who started finished on the pitched roof and jumped in with me… they were going way to fast! I said a few times to step back and take a moment…. But I was in the minority.Sure the job was going super fast and it done in a day, leaded up over the next couple. Would you believe a few weeks later it pissed with rain every bay except mine, was backing up an inch of rain! It’s all covered in lead…. And there are windows looking at it…. Fix that fast you muppets :(

Sharpening the saw, I’ve been build for about 30 years. I similar to you, am a soloist. I’ve found a massive amount of mental freedom in building organization systems, for everything. Long ago I came to understand a concept about “decision fatigue” or that we all can only make so many decisions in a day before we make bad decisions due to not having the bandwidth to see all the variables accurately. That bandwidth being eaten up by going out to you truck, van or trailer to search through a pile of tools to get a nail gun, to then go through another pile of fastener containers in a different part of the truck for a particular size nail that is now broken up from being in a pile, to load the gun with small chunks of nails to then realize the nail gun is damaged from being thrown into a pile of tools instead of a dedicated space. Then it dawns on you you spent a half hour doing absolutely nothing and now will have to figure out the best way through a completely preventable problem.

Take the time to figure out the effective way and the things that follow will be easier.

Good advice. I am not a carpenter by trade. I did just do a 7 month home renovation that only allowed 2 day of onsite work per week. I would spend the first 15-20 minutes of each day cleaning and reorganizing from the previous day as I was fresh and thinking about what I was going to do for the day and use the time to organize my setup for the days tasks. It made a huge improvement to do something as simple as placing the tools I would use most often for that day on my workbench in the order of my planned operations. I would also pair the tools to the hardware that would be used and have any other parts needed arranged in the same manner. Very effective use of time for an extremely productive day.

This. Before I rebuilt my van setup, I was using makeshit draws from other carpenter's old setups that had bugger all space for my gear. It would take me half a day to properly clean up my van because I'd just heave things in the back at the end of the day, and when I wanted to transport sheet goods, it was a pain in the ass because I'd have to set up 4x2s for it to sit on so it wouldn't get damaged or damage anything underneath. I spent a weekend at the yard with some ply, Triboard and some Strandfloor and built new draws with space for everything (that I had at the time) to go, space for the vacuum cleaner (that fell out of the back of the van one day and smashed the front of the hose garage off it), and space for more than enough sheet goods to be safely transported (turns out I can fit the mobile scaffold in there too). Now after about 3 months there is a bit of a mess in the van, but its all on top and out of the way of the things that I need to get to, and won't take me all that long to tidy up

Timber engineer: If you still have the chance you might consider to reinforce the floor joist at the support where you have cut it out. You can achieve this by using screws at full height next to the cut-out, in the joist. This ensures that your floor joists won't crack in the corner (where they are likely to), and thus, you don't have to worry that the beam cracks along the middle, reducing the joist height to half.

Planning before doing and getting the decks cleared before going into action have been guiding principles for a few hundred years. Many people, if they think about it at all, think that it's only important for big projects. Not true. Even small jobs should be planned and it's always worth getting the workspace organised before you proceed. My employer in 1988 sent me on a Program Management course in 1988. Their definition of a Program was a mega-project than included many subsidiary projects. One of the recent programs we'd done was worth $800M for software development and hardware provision. That's mid 1980s dollars. It was an international course with people from many countries where English was not spoken. My team of 8 had 4 people who had very little English and we had 15 minutes to complete the first project. We took 10 minutes planning and 5 minutes execution and we got it done. Sign language was still effective in 1988.

Renovating a home while also living in it would be next-level chaos. From my renovation experience, thankfully, we allowed three months while no one lived there. The second part of the renovation while we were living there was an extension adding on two bedrooms, but as it was attached to the end of the house, it never affected our living for the rest of the house. Renovation is like an unboxing with hidden surprises and normally costs more $$ and time than you expect for all the surprises. The second house renovation was more straightforward, and the third house was a new build which was so much better as you are designing from start to finish so there were not many hidden surprises apart from some annoying council bits and pieces. Once you are organised with Garage and Carport it will go a lot smoother so worth the time spent. Making your own cabinets -- are you really sure about that. Personally, modern cabinetry pre-built seems the way to go.

When I was young and helping my dad on his building sites a lot of my time helping him was "sweeping the sheds" - keeping everything clean and organised so that he could move around easily and work effectively. I don't work in construction now, but I still spend the time to sweep the sheds and colleagues are amazed at how effectively I can work when most of the time they see me I seem to be doing nothing productive. I don't get how people can accept working in a disorganized environment, thinking that's normal, and not wonder if they could do their job in a fraction of the time if they knew where everything was and also what they had!

The main reason for cleaning up before leaving your job site is the customer !! Most are working and any viewing of what's been achieved on a project is likely to take place at the end of the day. Cleanliness not only creates a good professional impression , but saves the customer for stepping on nails , wading through debris , falling down holes etc. Generally in my day , the youngest and least experienced got the broom. It also saves your tools from going walk about and will be good for your relationship. Not doing this is the equivalent to getting up in the morning and coming down to sink full of dirty dishes.

Can you buy tools from the US and using here? Especially recharging the batteries? Will it be fine!
