Merry Christmas Roy. Love and blessings to you and your family. Thank you for always supporting and encouraging me. God bless. Cheers J

I think it looks good so far as well... just for your state of mind, however, I would suggest a window. Natural light is always a good thing.

[@armourer1808]

Hi Joshua thanks for another great video. As someone whose built his own workshop and learned from the mistakes I can fully appreciate the work and planning that’s involved. I wish I’d seen this video twenty years ago because although I did a reasonably good job there are things here I wish I’d known at the time. I’m now going off to by that security camera it looks like a brilliant bit of kit. Thanks again Mark

[@joshuadelisle]

Thank you so much mark that's very encouraging. Be sure to check out the link in the description for Reolink. Thank you for your support. Cheers J

Thank you so much for your support. Lots to come. Have a great new year. Cheers J

[@timbishop97]

It was an unexpected Christmas gift to see the notification pop up that you have a new video. I finished the dinner dishes and settled down to watch. It is always inspiring to see you at work. It's like every day is Christmas for you when you have a new tool in your hand, or an idea to carry out! I noticed that what you paid for that angle seemed very reasonable. I went to the steel supplier to buy some scrap to make hardware for a sliding door to go on my shop and almost left without it the price was so crazy. Steel is triple what it was maybe a year or a little longer ago. That is a scary thing for a blacksmith, but it seems like England is not seeing the prices we are in the States. Well, Happy Christmas and New Year to you and your family Josh! Your little girl is totally precious.

[@joshuadelisle]

Thank you Tim. That's very kind of you. Steel is climbing in price and scrap is at a high. I think it's 1.34 dollars to the pound so it maybe the same here in relativity. I hope you're having a great holiday and I pray the new year brings many blessings to you. Cheers J

[@ForgedInHolland]

I was going to go to bed. But then I saw that notification!

Merry Christmas ⛄🎄 cheers J

Great build video! Liked the Reolink test as well, have been looking for similar.

[@mikenorth6088]

Wishing you a Happy, healthy, successful New Year for you and your family Joshua. I’m looking forward to all your hints tips and projects. Your first welcome tip being the security camera which I have been pontificating over for months, and the Reolink unit looks ideal.

Thank you although I'm keeping the shed for a lot of smithing work. The new one was needed as I did a job with lots of 3m panels. All the very best and merry Christmas. Cheers J

[@sedulousdabbler5468]

Fantastic build and a real bonus getting cheap materials as they are scary expensive at the moment. The camera looks bloody marvellous as long as you don't let it rule your life. All the best to you and your family for Christmas and the year to come.

[@joshuadelisle]

Thank you so much. I'm very blessed to find those panels for sure. Apsoltutley right about the cameras. I try not to be concerned about things but it's good to have a eye on things when I'm out and about. Cheers J

Hi Joshua, very nice video, love the way you explain your work 🙂. I recognize myself (but an older version 😀) a bit in you, building as much as possible yourself. Once your workshop will be finished, giving all your machines and tools a good place (to get as much as possible inside 🙂) will also be a fun job. Merry Christmas and see you next year!

[@joshuadelisle]

Thank you so much. I look forward to putting in some of my new machines in it including a fly pres and CNC plasma table. Merry Christmas. Cheers J

[@hoodedblacksmith7138]

Nice one that's going to be a big step up from what you've had before and given your organisation skills I'm sure you will fit a load more stuff in there.

Hello and happy Christmas to you and your family. If it was me I would try to modify the doors to fit the workshop. Have them lift straight up portcullis style so as not to loose head space inside. It's going g to be great to have such a useful space. Happy forging in the new year Jo

[@joshuadelisle]

Thank you Jo. Merry Christmas. Cheers J

[@phillodd7569]

How about a flat bar running diagonally on the roof and wall frames for stability.

[@joshuadelisle]

It's not needed I don't think because of the strength of the panels but I will add some gussets to the house side to give more strength against heavy snow. Cheers J

[@machineshopatthebottomofth3213]

Looks great Joshua. Any plans for insulation? It would probably be worth putting some sheets in the walls and roof to stop condensation on tools. I have a brick workshop, but I should have insulated it prior to filling it with rubbish!

[@joshuadelisle]

Hi Thank you. All the panels are pre insulated with 60mm kingspan. Very easy to put together and hopefully with little condensation when the doors are up. Merry Christmas. Cheers J

Merry Christmas to you and your family ,could you tell me how you address condensation in your metal work shop .

[@joshuadelisle]

The workshop is insulated steel panels. There is 60mm kingspan between two treated steel panels. Should be fine. Otherwise it's a case of allowing air flow and keeping it heated. Cheers J

Merry Christmas to you too. Cheers J

[@stepho9999]

@@joshuadelisle Yes sorry ...i was meaning the metal shed ..

[@joshuadelisle]

@@stepho9999 it's actually not too bad for condensation. It's on high ground so no moisture comes up through the floor. It's often airated with regular use but in the wet if winter there is a bit so I coat everything in a protective oil. I don't think I'm going to bother with insulting it as I use it still for forging it would get too hot. Cheers J
