Setting Up Your Woodwork Workshop - Woodworking for Beginners #20

[@texsox]

I discovered that the more I know the more I understand that other people also know a lot. Now instead of relying on my knowledge I plan by researching what other people know. You have become the first source I check.

[@knecht105]

Thanks for watching!

[@Boomers_Bud]

Hi Colin, Natasha did a great job of presenting your topics so a big smiley face for her. I am very fortunate to have a two car garage shop *( minus any vehicles) and I'm still constantly looking for more efficiency and table space in my shop. I do so many different projects and it seems that I am moving equipment constantly. I took the time to get everything on good quality locking caster wheels and that alone makes a huge difference. Another great topic. Derek

[@knecht105]

GiddyUp994 Thanks Derek, yes mine is about the size of a large one car, but it seems to work for me, although some tools get moved in from a next door room. Say, you guys are just getting pounded with some nasty weather this year ... well, they said it would be an El Nino year, could in the east wet in the west ... and it has been that. Take care buddy, spring is coming ...

[@UriValdez]

Colin you have a beautiful shop, that view through the window is pure relaxation. Im afraid if i had a shop like yours I would live in it and quit my job lol. Cheers!

[@emanuelsantos6754]

This woodworking book is really detailed, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* ! With the aid of this plan, I was able to use words, drawings, real images and different diagrams. It is really an informative product. I am presently making furniture together with my brother and thanks to this product, I feel like helping him is possible.?

[@Sulkanator]

Great video, guys. I really appreciate you taking the time to lend your insight.

[@BackyardWoodworking]

I'm still trying to figure out how to arrange my shop. I wish it was 3 time a big. LOL Good video Colin. Roland

[@knecht105]

Backyard Woodworking I hear you Roland, mine is pretty small too but it seems to work for me

[@MsRmaclaren]

Mine is 15'x9' and it is a pain to try to make larger projects!

[@dustyleblanc6323]

I really enjoy your videos and expert advice. People like you keep inspiring me to become a better woodworker. I'm very passionate about it but lots to learn and you help me in that department. Your blade caddy I seen on your wall has me very curious. Thanks for sharing all these videos and information.

[@knecht105]

Dusty LeBlanc Thanks Dusty ... I have a vid of making that caddy, it should be on the list on woodworkweb for a quick find for you. Thanks for posting buddy, always good to hear from you

[@hollysmith562]

[@knecht105]

Holly Helton Thank you Holly, appreciate your feedback

[@josenoriega6016]

Nice videos from woodworkweb! Thanks for sharing!

[@NM-ok7zz]

Hi Colin I just noticed you have a good yellow surge protector. May I know the brand name?

[@Handyandyworkshop]

Nice view from the workshop!

[@knecht105]

Handy Andy Workshop Yes, I am lucky to have a nice view ... at least on a clear day

[@MichaelDavis-nn5yj]

Hello Colin. Very good video I like all your videos. You take care my friend Michael.

[@knecht105]

Michael Davis Thank Michael ... as usual :)

[@elpidioramos]

Nice touch. Good job

[@knecht105]

Elpidio Ramos Thank You Elpidio

[@tecumseh22]

Outstanding video Colin!

[@knecht105]

tecumseh22 Thank you, I appreciate your positive feedback

[@lalocruz7615]

Has numerous details in this woodwork book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The book also displays several designs and descriptions on the materials used for various woodworking processes and also the guidelines on completing various procedures appropriately. In other words, I`m happy using this book, especially in the process of learning about wood working.?

[@JulieV5683]

Oh my goodness, I didn’t have the electrician add 220v outlets. Which tools need 220? Thanks!

[@mailtoramil]

In Russia 220 v everywhere, but some professional table saws, planes and jointers use 380 v.

[@edwaggonersr.7446]

Colin, if you measure between door stops on an exterior 32" door you will find that it only measures 31" +-. If the top of your saw is not less than 31" you will really struggle getting the saw into your shop. You will probably end up taking the top off. The young lady was a pleasant change. Looking out your shop window I see a lake that looks a lot like Fern Ridge Reservoir.

[@knecht105]

Ed Waggoner Sr. Yes ... you are correct, and I see that many of the manufactures have figured that out too by making things just small enough to fit through. Yes, I hoped that Natasha would be a nice change from seeing me .. or at least me the whole way through.The water is actually the ocean

[@ajiththai]

Good perspective view sketch and explanations, thank you so much...

[@knecht105]

Ajith Kumar Thanks buddy, great to hear from you

[@ultralord1974]

Great video! Man that view out your window really sucks. :) (I'm stuck in a city) I am very jealous. :) I rent a house and it has a "single car garage" (too small for a car) the owner had a terrible layout that i have spent a lot of time on trying to make better, still not there yet, but now at least i can get out there a do some small projects. Keep up the great work! New sub:)

[@TheJerryWatson]

Good vid Colin, We have same exact jointer BTW. :)

[@knecht105]

Thank You!

[@Hedgehog_in_the_Fog]

I tried to read an article on the first link in the description of the video and received the answer: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /woodworking-videos/495-setting-up-your-workshop.html on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

[@knecht105]

Павел ЁжЫГ Not sure what the problem there might be. I will contact out hosting company to see if there is a problem

[@MsRmaclaren]

Try: woodworkweb.com/woodworking-videos/495-setting-up-your-workshop.html The shortened URL sometimes doesn't work for some people.

[@Hedgehog_in_the_Fog]

MsRmaclaren Thank you, but I knew about short URL. I tried these options: manually enter the address, use another browser but it did not help. Only works when I use a proxy server located in the Netherlands or other countries. Maybe it has something to do with the sanctions against my country :(.

[@inchigo9653]

I am just playing with the idea of turning my fiance garage that was turned into a studio apartment into a workroom. I have no tools whatsoever and don't really have any knowledge on tools either but I am a 'do it myself' kind of person. Besides watching your videos (which I've already watched about 4-5 as soon as I came across them) and I love your videos,any suggestions for an absolute novice with a tight budget?

[@ivanfreely6366]

I know this is a year late but estate / garage sales is what I keep my eye on.

[@peterhaughton568]

Colin my workshop is 8 feet long by 7 feet wide .7 feet dropping down to 6 1/2 feet I have everything I need to build my 6 feet long trucks scania and the old British Land rover pete from Scotland ..

[@knecht105]

Peter Haughton Your shop is even smaller than mine Peter ... thanks for posting, love to hear from friends is Scotland, one of my favorite countries, I have friends up in Buckie that I visit from time to time

[@pennyroyal3813]

The view from your window must be inspiring.

[@margaritistakiskailos]

Great vIdeo! Thanx for the tips!

Charlie Wood Thanks again Charlie ...

[@lalocruz7615]

I`m retired and have a small shop where I perform woodturning, create musical instruments, and some cabinetry. I have a shelf full of woodworking textbooks - but I found this woodworking guide, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The comprehensiveness of this book is surprising. It has decent coverage on every topic.?

[@howardgleason1252]

*TopFineWoodworking. Com* , is a very comprehensive woodworking book! It breaks every little thing down, utilizing words, drawings, real pictures, and different diagrams. It`s unbelievably informative and helps me feel like I could help my sibling while we make our furniture together.?

[@asb1583]

How big is your shop in this video?

[@knecht105]

Adam Barraclough Not sure exactly, but it's a small shop ... I think like 12 x 20 ??

[@modernarchery2298]

Nice vidio love them

[@knecht105]

Modern Archery Thanks ... I want to check out your channel, I keep thinking about getting into archery ... just need time !!

[@modernarchery2298]

[@markward4852]

What are the dimensions of your workshop?

[@knecht105]

Mark Ward not sure exactly, but something like 15 x 20 ... why?

[@markward4852]

I have about 11 x 18 to work with, trying to figure the most productive layout

[@MrPickcity]

MY VIDEO RECOMMENDATION MADE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@knecht105]

Austin Long Perfect ... thanks Austin

[@lucasregiscardoso]

bom muito bom!

[@knecht105]

lucas regis cardoso Thanks for commenting :)

[@amandalawson3544]

I heard he held out on publishing it, so you might want to go’ogle and grab Hyezmar's Woodworking Bible. Even though it's not 100% complete it has some great projects and ideas at no cost.

[@brothyr]

Do you regret using a wood floor in your workshop because of the wear it gets?

[@knecht105]

Adam R Actually mine is one of those crappy laminate floors and was there when I moved in. I do hate it, but just never seem to have time to replace it or at least tear it up and leave the concrete floor underneath ... any thoughts you can share ??

[@brothyr]

WoodWorkWeb I asked because my brother had wood flooring in his workshop and quickly came to regret it because the finish quickly came off and a few drop of used oil dropped on it. The wood didn't handle a loaded engine block lift rolling on and he ended ripping it up because of some rotting. I don't have a workshop of my own. I am working an idea but with the possibility of moving to a different state, I am hesitant to make even a portable building.

[@knecht105]

Adam R Hmmm ... thanks for this Adam, some things I hadn't thought about. I will really need to give this more thought before I do something. Thanks again buddy

[@howardgleason1252]

If you are one of those people who enjoys building woodworking crafts/projects and some basic carpentry skills this website will interest you in the same way that it did me. >> *TopFineWoodworking. Com*
