Thanks, I used the code!

[@rubensdemacedojunior7382]

Great Job Jay!!!!

[@ALLANWEIR-sm8qr]

Jay, I didn’t say this to you because I want something from you. I don’t need anything from anyone what I need is my wife back and she’s already gone to heaven so I just love you show I just wish you’d think just a little bit faster not faster but better before you make a move because I watch you do things twice as hard as you should have to, I’m gonna try and help you before you do things or I see you do something I’m gonna give you my two cents to see how you are if you use it or not by the way, did you close in the back of the new garage that you did because I don’t know how your weather goes and maybe it might come in that way and then your floors will be all wet and everything so I thought maybe you’d kind of closer in what a waterproofitem TX 111 is probably a very good you could paint that black try that little expensive but it will work and nobody’s gonna see it but you have a good day Jay God bless you and your family

[@Houseds]

Thank

[@davidwalk9045]

The PB needs to know that Jason is giving pro tips...

[@Building_Jays_Way]

lol!

[@dogcreek8547]

I wanna sweet new crib and I want it now! Oh wait I forgot I already built my dream crib. The ultimate crib will be on the side of eternity.

[@Dristai]

That's the first time I hear Jay say "I'm so exited to get to paint". Never thought that would happen.

[@p.o.4339]

Good point. He better hope the Perkins don't watch the video. Wonder why the exterior wasn't painted to match the existing garage.

[@davidwood5877]

I bet he never thought he’d hear those words come out of his mouth either

[@katarzynazofia]

I'd just maybe paint the roof underside with the cream colour of the garage wall, I think it would tie together much better. But that's a minor detail.

[@cyndyfarmer2791]

That's a fine looking add on! However I think it would look even better if you painted the underside of the rafters. You have done a really great job doing most of it by yourself!!!

[@williamdorsey3203]

Another thing you can do with lighting near the garage door is to mount the lights on the side walls where the door would block the lighting when open. It actually works pretty nicely.

[@hybridmods4228]

Honestly a big "building jays way" sign in black iron or welded steel would look KILLER on the side of the shed. Would blend in well enough to not be an eyesore coming up to the house but still let everyone know its "your" shed... This whole "build" turned out awesome man. Are there any other big projects you plan on doing this year?

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Would like to redo my deck, new floors in the house and Steph still wants a tree house!!

[@hybridmods4228]

@@Building_Jays_Way a full deck rebuild would be insanely nice. Would you go back with the same wood materials or one of the newer products like on Erik’s deck with the pvc decking and railing system? Also any layout changes? Sounds like a good project series…

[@DavisEJay]

You gonna have all kinds of critters in there. You should’ve sealed it up! Put some battens horizontal on there.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

The cat will love it!! lol.

[@DavisEJay]

@@Building_Jays_Way 👍🏼

[@Houseds]

The construction process is amazing, the project is very beautiful. Thank you for sharing your entire learning process. Sincerely

[@nickk4010]

Seeing you without a hat is like seeing a different person haha, so used to the hat I guess. Love the videos!

[@user-bw4qb4pg5q]

Love to watch when you screw up. Most of us hide it but you use the opportunity to let us learn from your willingness to share a screw up. and it is a hoot. Thanks

[@jmac8746]

Jay, for the new shop: Depending on what work you are doing. -Good placement of a table saw with out feed table -Miter saw station -Router station/table

[@paulgeorge150]

Don’t put yourself down in saying you don’t know what your, you a very accomplished builder Jay. Enjoy to watch

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks.

[@colinbrooks6290]

Hmmm, Jason the back posts….. shortcut…. Cheat…. Pro tip….. great Pro Tip 🍺👍🎉💥

[@scorpio6587]

Stephanie, we see you getting slimmer, and you look great! Great job! Inspiring!

[@cosmicking7979]

at the end of the series could you do a summary type of thing and go through the details of what you did? like a time lapse of the series with voice over

[@fspipe10]

Great work. I woulda left the garage door white to give it some contrast but that's just me. Thumbs up

[@ninabooker2904]

Other shop makeovers I’ve seen put in storage units on locking casters. So they are portable and adaptable to changing needs. Plywood boxes / cabinet boxes with doors or drawers for storage. Or metal garage / tool storage units you can buy ready to use. Work table on casters, scrap wood organizers on casters. Mitre saw station, drill press station, band saw or lathe station, battery charging station, wall mount drill holders, vacuum system. Kyle from RR Builders designed a work trailer that was awesome. Michael Alm (KZbinr) is a woodworker & furniture builder, he built his custom shop. If everything has a home, it’s just as easy to put it down in its home rather than just leave out and have to move it twice. It’s a big job but take one task at a time and before long you’ll have it worked out. As much as you can get up off the floor the better. ❤Love the channel. Happy 2024 Jason & Stephanie🎉

[@lbigc1370]

Hi Jay. It really looks as though U and your lovely Wife have both lost quite a bit of weight. I'm super happy for U.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks so much

[@JJawsyW]

I would store all the flammables in the new addition. I'd make one bay of the main garage a cutting and sanding area and the other bay for fabrication. Put nail, screws, glues, caulk and other fasteners on the fabrication side. Store all the wood around and other materials on the back wall.

[@billsk8]

"We're gonna put it in the hole, get it up and peg it." Sounds like my kind of night.

[@dawnc1419]

😯

[@thefreeak]

LOL - I was thinking I couldn't be the only amused by that statement.

[@jeradmiller4575]

That actually turned out really nice.

[@leemartin366]

Right where you were standing before you got off of the shelf from the front you could easily put down a couple of pieces of wood across those Joist on the bottom to store long lengths of exterior material

[@topguncg47]

Jay don’t let anyone tell we DY-I ers screw up all the time when building, you just have the balls to show when it happens. You rock……keep going you will be a superstar.

[@joetownsend-]

JaSON, Perkins better pay you more! You are at there level and then some! I bet it’s because of Your Beautiful Helper!!!!! You two are God Joined!❤️ Happy 2024💥🎆👏🏻

[@scottkailey1]

In the shop I think a must have is dust collector of some sort.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yes I agree . I am working on getting one!

[@robdixon945]

Thanks for the show Jason 🍻 🇦🇺

[@jackruvio7943]

You might want to put a corner piece to match the original garage. Maybe a piece of real cherry would look cool.

[@scottm2828]

12:14 That’s one way to do it 😂😂

[@MrAngrywolf]

I think you should install a dust extraction system it might be a pain but will definitely help your health later on down the line, also run outlets in more places than what you think youll need!

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yes I am working on the dust collection system as we speak!

[@troyqueen9503]

Hey Jay, you should get a track saw for breaking down your sheet goods.Much safer and easier on the back.👍🏝️🇨🇦

[@Building_Jays_Way]

I’ve been talking about a track saw four years! And be out there that wants to send me one please do! Thanks for watching

[@katarzynazofia]

It looks great 🤩 and it seems it will be very functional. Well done 🙌✨️

[@randyjudy5895]

You should put screen up on the inside walls to keep the bugs out

[@jimmydavis408]

You are one of the few folks I watch thru without fast forwarding. I love your videos. Keep em coming.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Sweet!!!

[@muthagoose00]

looks like your rail supports need some angled supports as well. When you open your door they flex outward.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yeah I think that is a good idea.

[@natestaudt2644]

When you put your plywood on your shelves/work benches, let it overhang by like 2 inches. Makes clamping things down but easier.

[@amyglass2319]

I absolutely love your channel jay you remind me so much of my younger brother who god took way too soon he would have been the same age as you if god had speared him keep up your good work xxxx

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Will do. Thanks.

[@robbunch2225]

First… move internal switch. Coat hanger can easily open button there through door edge. Good job.

[@tdimccullough]

The biggest problem with having a pile of shelving is a temptation to fill them full of stuff that you think will come in handy eventually but never do and if they're in boxes, finding them when or if you do need them

[@anthonym612]

Happy Belated Birthday, Jay - have a drink or a coffee on me - thanks for all you do, I admire your craftsmanship.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks, will do!

[@weekendhomeprojects]

Looks majestic! Like the Smokey Mountains on a cool foggy fall morning.

[@ohasis8331]

Good job sport, that all turned out pretty well. It's a nice addition.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks 👍

[@heyfatkid]

"well-- they were supposed to be 1 inch." - Love the honesty!!!!

[@mazerguru3891]

Jay, my only suggestions are to paint the front outside face of the shed and garage door the same color as your old/existing garage. Also i would paint the inside of the shed white on the walls and shelves to make it brighter, this will really help you see and find things in the nighttime when the lights are on. Other than that, well done and i am looking forward to seeing your next project.

[@carolebillue357]

I think the contrast of colors w/slats give it a sleek, modern vibe! Love the black! More importantly....Stephanie may have picked those colors🤷🏼‍♀️ You know....she designs; he builds.😄

[@SnoDawg]

The squirrels and mice will love it in there.

[@kileymcconnell4492]

“I get to paint” is something I never thought I’d hear you say! Looks great brother. Maybe add a barn quilt?

[@stanhawkins1023]

I agree with those suggesting sealing the exterior walls. Blowing rain will do a number through those gaps.

[@jbass86]

Jay LOVES to paint

[@DrTubeman]

The struggle is real but the shed is the deal...I almost snorted my cappo froth since when have you ever liked painting lol. Stephanie's smile as you explained the doorframe entrance was priceless. Blimming nice work Jay.

[@jamiepotvin9818]

Jay. Love the videos ( #2 fan, like most I'm sure I look forward to each new episode) May I add that your wife is such a team playing (helping you out with a shout out lol). I did'nt see a follow up at the end of the video but I'm pretty sure that battery for you garage door opener is so that if your power goes out your door can open and close still with house power. Most people aren't aware of that. My first genie door opener that I installed 12 years ago never came with one so I had bought a separate one that you use on a house computer and put one in my garage and one in my basement for the sump pump ( both still need to work if the power goes out ) just a suggestion love the videos and again your awesome helper.

[@j-dawg4015]

Bloody great job J. Looks fantastic 👌😎🇦🇺🍺

[@chrisruffino5168]

Looks great. One thing you might want to add is to close off the slats near the garage door button. Just seems someone can open the door in 2 seconds from outside with something to push the inside button. Thieves always and more work to projects.

[@chrisruffino5168]

Add not and... I need to proofread more.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

That's a great idea!

[@ryankelly5303]

LOOKS GREAT JAY.

[@mlehman1991]

You built you quite the shop there. My own 2 cents worth I think I would put the smart side panels in the back also to help make it a little more weather tight just in case you chose to work in it. I think you will enjoy the extra space for sure. Keep up the great content.

[@justinhodgin5192]

Hey Jay, just met u at the volleyball games, it was awsome to meet u. Definitely love the channel. Keep up the great content I love watching.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks brother!! Go KVC!!

[@ricardodeangelo3851]

It's gonna look cool at night with the light shining through.

[@lbh002]

Looks kind of like a corn crib or an area for curing tobacco. Industrial in a rural way. Very nice.

[@Thecampingpeople]

Amazing work 🙌 I would have attempted to maybe screen it from the inside, to avoid having rodents crawl in. But I love it brother 👍

[@scbaillie911]

I'm building a very similar lean-to off my garage to park my 20' trailer. Pretty cool how you turned it into a shop. The black looks great.

[@robertpayne6960]

Jay, some thick mil visqueen stapled to the interior framework (back and front) would help keep the rain out...akin to what you did with the smart siding by the shelves. Additionally, a piece of ground rated wood/rail road tie would make a good footer for the garage door since you did not want to pour one.

[@jimk5307]

Nice look on it. Heck, I probably would have painted the three unfinished sides and put the pre-finished side facing inward. But, then that factory finish is really best with the extra paint on it and all the weather hitting it. I see you also added panels inside on the one wall. So, a little lees impact to having a painted wall. Less painting (but you do like painting, hehe) and the inside of the shed would be lighter for you.

[@marigeobrien]

By now you probably know the battery back-up is for when there's a power outage, so you can still get your car out of your garage. Great job. I'm really impressed. I love the way you left gaps on the outer walls... and I was thinking, if you put up shelves you'd want to cover the interior walls. Which, of course, you did. Can't wait to see your new shop... coming soon. ;)

[@Kralphrn]

Jay, you need to be on TV commercials!! Natural in front of the camera!

[@mmanut]

LIKE IT. WASN’T SURE OF THE SPACING BUT AFTER COMPLETE I REALLY LIKE IT. THE MOTOR NEEDS TO BE SUPPORTED WITH METAL L BRACKETS ALONG WITH THE TRACKS‼️ Vinny 🇺🇸

[@Building_Jays_Way]

The motor is supported with metal brackets. The tracks just 2x4. Thanks.

[@jean-marclamotte5082]

I am in Florida and I always wanted to move/retire in NC. Every time I watch one of these videos or the Perkins Brother's videos it encourages me to keep trying persuade my wife to find a piece of land up there and start building something. I am definitely not a amazing builder as you are but hopefully growing up in a farm when I was young gave me enough to do "some of that stuff". LOL So keep posting your very good videos because I am sure there plenty of people like me who just need that kind of motivation to start something. Thanks again.

[@davidshaw2846]

Jay, I'm impressed as hell that you did most of this on your own. That's a lot of hard work. Nice job, brother!

[@Building_Jays_Way]

I appreciate that!

[@user-qk2fw7jz9c]

Wow ! That really look Great ! I just love watching your videos.

[@bobcarry4820]

You may be "I'm an idiot" but you always seem to catch it before it is finalized. Good job Jay.

[@davegordon6943]

I told you you were getting 75,000 by new years. That's awesome Jay. 100 grand soon.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

We are getting there!

[@ta3355]

Jay, you gotta install soffit making it complete. Otherwise, the birds will make it a hotel. Yikes!

[@50sKid]

Great job man. I think if it were me I would have put those panels on the inside of the wall cavities so that they ran full length. It definitely would mess with my OCD to have some of those gaps covered up and some open, but it's your shed and you get to make it how you want lol.

[@rickscott2568]

It is pretty cool to see how your skill level has progressed the last few years. Young people should follow your example and learn a skill that will benefit them for life.

[@BlueRiverMusic]

Good job , Jay 👍

[@tbillington]

Turned out great Jay

[@One_Crazy_Dog_Mum]

Nice job Jay, hubby hung his led lights (hyper light similar) with a chain and pot/cup hook, easy to replace if they stop working at the same height, he’s also got steady rack bike racks for wall mounting the mtb’s, and nice work on the angle bracing which is perfect for storing conduit, straight edges, levels etc. 💪 Shell 🇦🇺

[@dnurgh99]

Mount the third light high on the outside wall shining toward your old garage and the light will shine with the garage door up or down

[@maryrodgers6041]

Great job, looks beautiful.

[@jameshalleron7484]

Jay, When you start clearing out the main garage and once all the walls are exposed, think about making a French Cleat system. It will allow you to make your own holders for what you to hang up olus the option of being able to move it whenever you want. Great job on the shed.

[@stevehamilton9418]

Looks real good Jay!

[@rcheaney0325]

Hi, first time viewer. I am wanting to add a 10 x 30 lean too on the side of my 16 x 30 existing shop, you have given me several good ideas. I will be watching your progress.

[@scottpaulson1714]

You should hang the upper shelves braces from the ceiling so the supports are not in the way of storage for first shelf.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Good idea.

[@jmac8746]

Jay, another great video. You can’t beat yourself up too bad for making mistakes, we all do it’s our claim to fame as human beings. It is true that working by yourself can sometimes lead to more issues, but you have a great helper in Stephanie. My Wendy has done a lot of the same for me, as my official ground crew. Looks great, lot of work bud

[@debby8428]

My husband is 61 and I am 60. We just put a 26x30 addition on our home. The trusses were tough but overall we did a good job! On to the next project! BTW we did everything ourselves except for the foundation. He wanted to but I talked him out of it!

[@milesharlan1]

I made it Jay! TGIF. Keep up the good work.

[@jameskett5241]

Grounds up! Nobody ever does that, but that's the proper way to install outlets. I don't know how everyone passes inspection. lol

[@Icessassin]

Jay if i were you, if you haven't already, put a small panel around the inside opener so people cannot press the inside opener from outside using a stick or crowbar. Just abit of added safety. No point having the secure garagedoor if you can open the door from the outside.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yeah. I figured having the garage door would be somewhat of a deterrent from people trying to steal anything! My main garage door is usually wide-open so if somebody wants to steal something I don’t think they’re going to have a problem! Lol our neighbors are pretty cool I think I’ll be all right. Thanks for the thoughts

[@mathiashosang571]

Hey Jay, cooles Video! Ich freu mich zu sehen wie deine Werkstatt entsteht! 👍✌

[@leedy5792]

love it! Pobably next time kindly consider the rain. It will be best to cover all side against all weather condition.

[@wilddave100]

NICE JOB JAY

[@carolmartell9051]

Garage was great❤

[@dncndan1]

LOOKS GOOD.

[@himmify]

Damn Jay; Looking good.. Great work.

[@ruhtardedninjas]

We all know how much you love painting! hahaha, im surprised you voluntarily painted

[@CarlGolden]

Love your channel. The only problem I see is the gaps on the side with a solid panel on the inside it gives bees wasps etc a nice home

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yeah it will suck.

[@haroldmessimer4949]

Jay, it looks awesome. You forgot one thing, just ask Eric and Jamie’s dad, ZIP tape! LOL

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Good call!

[@hpw59]

❤Looks really nice. To really finish it off put some soffit up

[@stephenlachance8448]

Hi Jay, really enjoy your videos. You're a funny guy! Great job on the additional storage. You said at the end of the video that you are going to start working on your shop and you wanted suggestions. Here are some I hope are useful. 1) Make all surfaces the same height as your tools so you can transition work pieces from one table to another. 2) I would put everything I could on wheels, with locking wheels on the corners. It makes it so much easier on your back to be able to make space for projects when you can just roll things out of the way. I've been an electrician for 40-years and if I lived nearby, you would have all the help you need on the electrical parts. It would be great to have a friend like you. Keep making great content, I for one will keep watching. Can't wait to see how your shop turns out!

[@dapapadon1829]

Nice work Jay!

[@ZipKickGo]

It's going to be interesting to see how the interior fairs with the air gaps. To me I'm thinking that air flow is going to help prolong the sidings lifespan but also keep the inside dry. But maybe not and it's the opposite? Who knows!

[@SpaceflightSimulator]

0:00 The intro 😂
