Fire extinguishers. YES. I always buy a 4 pack for house warming parties and a 2 pack for apartment warming parties. I also bring my tools and offer to mount them after discussing where they should go, or help the homeowner mount them if they want to do the lifting. Always. My wife used to tease me about it being a lame gift, but she stopped when we had a small fire and one of those babies came in handy.

[@alskjflaksjdflakjdf]

Great idea. I bought the EZ Fire Spray and stuck it in the edge of the kitchen pantry beside the canned goods. The family has gotten on board and when we bring the groceries home the can always ends up at the front of the can pile, because that is its special home. It's small enough for the kids to use if they ever need it. I should buy something for the garage...

[@tkreitler]

That is a brilliant idea for a gift. Most people don't realize they should have fire extinguishers until it is too late.

[@dennisossianderrmplmtcst2053]

Nice

[@jubalwright421]

absolutely, my work friend pestered me to get a fire extinguisher for my old garage, I got a 10lb, a year latter BAD engine fire with me in the truck in the garage, the fire extinguisher saved the house and the truck mostly (still rebuilding it) my new place I now have a 10lb up stairs, down stairs and in the shop all right beside exits, you don't want to run opposite direction of the exit to grab the fire extinguisher only to realize you can't breath or are blocked from the exit by fire

[@joeteejoetee]

A fire extinguisher is an excellent wedding gift. It sends love and care, and they will remember you and your gift the 1st time that they use it, or can't find it in time.

[@jackrichards1863]

You made me feel like a genuine member of my community. It appears we have the same solution to life's bigger garaging problems. A homemade car tent , a shed full so that some climbing is necessary to get around it. An outside extra shed for lawnmowers, motorcycles, and flammable goods. Not identical, simply the same.

[@matolies]

The lockpicking engineer 👌

[@JL2579]

Hey Matt, from experience I can tell you that the tent won't hold up in rain. The problem is that the angle is too shallow and it's gonna sag with water pockets and eventually collapse even with little rain if it just continues raining for a while. Make sure that the angle is at least close to a usual tent angle (I guess around 20 degrees or so?) and that there is a good amount of tension I. E. By clamping the sides down.

[@gabrielko2147]

Maybe he will be fine if he adds more supports in the areas that would otherwise sag

I moved into my home and used the detached garage to put junk I would store at a week or two later. After living in the house a year I finally organized my full garage. Turns out it wasn't full at all just sprawling. Organization does wonders

[@Redmenace96]

Most of my friends have 2-3 car garages that are full of sprawling junk. No cars. Try to gently suggest another way. 2 years later, same-same. It is the American way.

[@mundanestuff]

Go watch LPL's videos on whatever one you plan to buy. Most of them are this pickable. Hell, I don't think this was even "picking", straight up bypassed.

[@Turbochargedtwelve]

Battery powered sawzalls are very affordable. Locks are really just for keeping honest people honest and being able to tell your insurance it was secured.

[@g45h96]

You could literally title your video "making a bowl of cereal", and it could actually be that, and I would still watch. The content you make is just that good. Tickles the brain and shakes the two droplets of dopamine that it decided to make free.

[@Redmenace96]

Have done a ton of car/moto projects on the bare ground. Under the sun. This video brought back a memory and rush of joy for the first time I had a shelter. Open air, lean-to, with a roof. Safe storage for my tools and supplies. Boy-o! Was I living the high life! Never had a crack at my own garage. That's for the rich folks. Ha, ha! Somewhat different issue, but not. When I see footage of NASCAR garages, or MotoGP shops? Feel like I'm seeing a vision from Mars, or of Heaven! Without the footage, wouldn't believe it exists.

[@Equine_frederikke]

Oh, it hurts either my selfdiagnosed OCD, or perhaps my past in the army recon squadron that you park with the rear out! Great to hear from you as always!

[@macattack123mattc3]

Also like everyone who is in the oil business down here in Texas. But then again if you're in a garage you aren't really going anywhere in a hurry. For context, the idea with backing in always is that if something is going boom, if everyone is backed in, you just pull out and go for it. If someone is not backed in, it slows down everyone else.

[@jsquared1013]

@@macattack123mattc3 it also increases safety for normal, not "rapid evac" scenarios. When you back in, your rear cross-traffic is physically blocked off by the spaces/cars on either side and whatever the rear barrier is (curb, wall, another parking row, etc), and when you leave the space, you have better sight lines (no rear blindspots, better positioning to see around neighboring parked vehicles) for the cross traffic or possible pedestrians in the lanes you're pulling into.

[@Equine_frederikke]

@@macattack123mattc3 it was the same reason in the army, if it goes boom, you don’t have time to back out! Nowadays I still do it, still same reason, if the wife goes boom, I can peel away fast!

[@niklaswo]

I was taught to back in to any parking (if the engine is in the front) because it makes it easier to jump start the car or just fix things in general if the bonnet points outwards 😊

[@patricktrudeau1996]

A note about fire extinguishers: You can get really good ones for very cheap at your local Commercial Fire Safety contractor. Commercial extinguishers are bigger, more robust, and last longer, but "expire" after a set number of years depending on where you live. Also, once you or things around you have caught fire a few times, youll wish you had more than just an ABC extinguisher. And since you're now buddies with your local fire safety contractor, youll have an easy time finding and refilling things like Re-usable water extinguishers and CO2 extinguishers.

[@MikesTropicalTech]

Nice work with the Lockpicking Lawyer imposter, been watching him for years! You even got his pace and tone.

[@emu55]

I always rolled my eyes when I first started working on cars and my parents suggested fire safety equipment. My mom bought me a fire extinguisher and made me hang it up in the garage, which I reluctantly did. When I actually set my car on fire, I was very glad I had the fire extinguisher and told my mom she was right. As a teenager, sometimes your parents are right lol

[@TravisFabel]

this is the lock picking engineer here and today we're going to bypass this lock using multiple methods. first we can bypass it with a little shim. or we can bypass it here with a bypass tool which is just another shim, but inserted into the number wheel. And finally we're going to bypass it here with my favorite bypass tool, 3 ft long bolt cutters.

[@motorv8N]

Ah the old garage organization effort. We’ve lived in the same house for 20 years and never, not once, has an actual car cast its shadow across the floor. Every year or so I pull everything out, pile it on the driveway, resort the piles and restack. Done for another year! One trick I did incorporate was buying two rolling scaffold units, building two more shelves in each, stacking with tools, then use them as moveable storage, shifting them from place to place within the garage, or even rolling them right outside depending on the working space required for the day.

[@DrFiero]

Putting it on one wall, then the other wall is a great plan. Everyone should have wall to wall CNC machines. Much like my old boss about 40 years ago who kept asking me to pull a power supply out of one PC, then put it into another. I told him that's why the're called "switching power supplies". Probably the first and last time he ever actually laughed.

I've found that 4-drawer vertical steel filing cabinets are an ideal and cheap storage solution for paint cans and other aerosol cans. No more forgetting about ancient paint cans at the back of an overfull shelf. Now you can pull out a drawer and every can is visible at the same time. The tall 5-drawer steel horizontal filing cabinets work pretty well for storing other miscellaneous things out of sight so your packrat tendencies aren't immediately obvious to your wife.

A guy in my city had one of those car canopies, but he made the mistake of setting the posts in the ground with concrete.
