DIY Garage Makeover On A Budget! (This Trick Saved Me Thousands)

I saved thousands turning my trashed garage into my dream garage shop on a budget. New floors, lighting, cabinets, and more. Saved money by repurposing, repainting, finding sales, and thinking out of the box on this garage remodel. This garage isn't just my shop, it's also my KZbin studio so I had to add a 65 inch TV. The hex light has the power of the sun and you won't believe what I put on the garage floor. If you enjoyed this video let me know what you would like me to build next! Thanks!

Carpet in a woodworking shop looks cray cray.... unless you aren't doing any woodworking in there... you know cutting, sanding, spilling solvents, etc... Maybe it works, but please tell us how it's working out, with vacuuming wood residue and dust. I personally would have gotten with a floor that kept the dirt visible, and easy to clean... i.e. vacuum, mop, squeegee, etc.... but you are the expert so what do I know....

You’re going to love this, back when I was doing pro rally and road racing I had yellow shad carpet in my car and a half work shop. It was great you could get under the car and the concrete wasn’t cold. Oil change was done either carpet rolled up or outside when there was warm weather.

[@vrocv6411]

Another option is valspar porch and floor paint in your color choice. Base coat it, second coat throw a heavy broadcast of paint chips. Spray 2 to 3 coats of hardwood floor urethane on top to hold it all down. I did this in a 12x24 shed and it's holding up to abuse and looks just like an epoxy flake floor. Price wise it's massively cheaper than epoxy kits

[@almariekuit56]

As a lady who uses her garage for about 10 different purposes, including a car space, gym, workshop and office, I loved the heck out of this. I did carpet tiles in my office area but just joined the corners with sticky corners. It's a superb space you've created. 👌🏻

Stumbled across your channel out of curiosity...never did I expect to see my favourite colour (lime green/sweet pea) splashed around with so much flair and artistry in a workshop.

It says on a budget,I didn't know you meant a rich guy budget

[@modsquad8u]

A rich guy would have built an entire shop with all new stuff. Get your grind on, upgrade your career or trade. If you don't have either of those, I suggest getting an in demand skill. Blue collar jobs will make you a lot of money these days and have way less investment than some university degree from a bunch of professors that are or concerned about indoctrinating people then giving them good skills to go out and be a contributing member of society.

My mom put linoleum in her garage. This was back in the 70’s. It was super durable. She parked and drove on it, which lasted years.

The biggest problem with linoleum is you have to seal it, generally annually.

I have been wondering what colour to use in my garage and the green you have is pretty similar to the colour of my Engine tin ( Air Cooled Porsche). A buddy of mine painted my tin. bright Green when I was away on business. He had helped me build the motor. Well here I am years later. I love the colour as crazy as it is and then I see your garage!

Honey mustard is more adhesive than the classic French's yellow mustard.

[@HAXMAN]

I'll try to remember that.

[@schoolForAnts]

Spicy brown will also work in a pinch but I found that it is a much better hole filler than an adhesive.

But at least French's yellow mustard is good for *something*.

I have a bunch of those carpet squares as well and was thinking exact same thing. Easier on my feet as well. My main concern was sawdust.

[@cottoncb]

Like what you did with the shop/mancave/garrage. You know what I have not seen that would be cool is integrating a power station like BLUETTI, or EcoFlow into the workbench so that the power goes with the work bench when you roll it out into the driveway for cutting and other things. You could build a compartment on the side or back with filters to keep the dust down and mount a power strip on the outside so you could plug in tools like a saw. Mobile power for a mobile work bench. It would be super convenient to not have to roll out cords everywhere and then find a free outlet to plug it in every time. Now this would add some weight and you would have to recharge it when you put it away but it would be super cool.

Sometimes you gotta completely destroy something to be able to make it better. When I was little I would be told to clean my room before playing outside...soooo I'd take everything completely out into the hallway and put it all back in piece by piece to perfect and better than ever every time. It helped to have a change of normalcy and also to see what things I actually had that I then had the choice to keep and rearrange or get rid of.

[@Unkx007]

‘Oh my gosh that is gurch look at that grEeen’😂😂 18:35

You are truly a craftsman. That mistake in the round table could have destroyed that project but you found a way to recover and finish it. You got street cred points as far as I’m concerned. Keep creating!

Funny… Apparently I hadn’t noticed my almost 4yr old grandson peeking over my shoulder while watching this vid. Well, he wanted to color so I set him up and ran to the bathroom for ONE MINUTE to come back and see him smearing mustard all over the table, himself and some sheets of paper to “glue” them together!
