New Floors for the Shop - WoodShop Build - Part 2

Renovating an old barn and turning it into a functional modern woodshop.
Part 2: demolishing and replacing the 1st floor. Pouring and polishing a concrete slab downstairs. A lot of work for the perfect shop floor!
Getting one step closer to my dream shop :)

Great video! Talk about having to be very satisfied with both yourself and the job you did, this has to be it. With steel beams and brick walls, this has to be every guys dream shop.

[@kieronknott8741]

Lol I thought your barn was on a farm somewhere but its in a town keep coming with the videos mate 👍🏻

[@zzzires5045]

As soon as you showed those I beams I was waiting a gantry crane hanging from them

[@JoeWoodMakeThat]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video

[@l.5734]

Painting the walls BEFORE removing ceiling and concreting floor is really funny! 😂

[@balazslakatos9817]

the most beautiful concrete I ever seen on YT!

[@mikehuffaker3593]

Smart reusing the staircase. Just found your channel. This has been a fun build.

[@elsekleszyk]

It looks awesome! Wait for more ;) See u.

[@stuartodell1709]

Tilt up for one direction and down for the other (makes very easy to stear once you get the hang of it.

[@shyamdevadas6099]

At least you had some I-beam construction, so there was something to hang the new joists to. Nice job!

[@dukestt5436]

those floor boards you smashed to pieces and then set fire to were worth their weight in gold

[@koolkidsunite12]

in warmth and cherished memories ya tight arse

[@phroge1866]

They couldnt really be used for anything, i dont get the point of this comment

[@ISometimesAgree]

@@phroge1866 Some people pay a lot of money for "aged" wood like this from barns and stuff, not to mention 90% of what he removed was still good besides that one section where even the beams were rotting...while being worth its weight in gold is an exaggeration, it definitely was worth something...and it seemed a waste to rip it out to only put OSB in its place. Hope he never has a leak, as that stuff disintegrates once water gets to it. OSB should be illegal for any type of construction in my opinion.

[@phroge1866]

@@ISometimesAgree the way he tore the wood up made it basically useless, the only things I could see being made out of it was small stuff that's why I think its pointless

[@phroge1866]

if he tore it up any other way id agree but whats done is done

[@alexandruchivu7327]

I'm psychologically preparing myself for something like this, 8x6 m construction with bad foundation . Still in the balance between demolish the existing construction and build it from zero or reuse it. In my country we have some pretty bad earthquakes and need to be solid . Anyhow, a lot of work, bravo !

[@zacharywoodward7400]

Love the space!

[@vothqualitycreative]

The space is looking so good with all the work you’ve put into it! Looking forward to future vids to follow along. 😄

[@marianthelibrarian2274]

That looks great, after all your hard work - excellent 👍 Looking forward to more 🙂 (oof that staircase! Careful with your back or you'll feel it when you're older)

[@SpareTimeShop]

Guess I will have to wait and see 🤞😅

[@tomvandemoortele836]

Super video's man!!! Ik kijk al uit naar de volgende.

[@SpareTimeShop]

dikke merci! :)

[@peteawest]

Did you consider not removing the wood flooring and just putting osb on top of it? I realize there were some areas where rot was too significant and needed new floor entirely.

[@Locharts_]

@@JM-lw3nx thanks my friend

[@mr_werty2]

those beautiful brick floors are lost forever under concrete :(

[@eric-ue8pu]

I thought the same thing, painted over the wooden beams too :/

[@alexandruchivu7327]

yuk ;)

[@beerenmusli8220]

Awesome Video!!!!

[@stvnpnt]

Cool!

[@frankschmit7845]

Great Video I think that you need to leave 5-10mm between OSB and wall as the wood will expand and shrink.... With the gap you will give the wood space to work and you wont get any tension warps and cracks.

[@JM-lw3nx]

oh really let's hear some more "advice" from the "expert"

[@balazslakatos9817]

true, same rule applies when you put down laminated floors

[@massoud999]

Mooi werk

[@arkthefennecfox2366]

The amount of dust you kicked up around the 5:00 mark made me squint and blink a few times irl

[@JoeGP]

I only saw 1 fatal flaw and that is the joins between the OSB boards not lining up over beams, that means there is no support under them and when you step on it your foot will go through, maybe not now but if they ever rot a little in the future ....

[@JM-lw3nx]

wow another know it all!

[@tollevkvendbo]

Nice videos, keep them coming!

[@13daniel1974]

Concrete cures...it doesn't dry. Just saying...LOL You did a great job and it looks very good.

[@Melicoy]

Thanks

[@skinke280]

Sad to see the brick and floor boards go. Concrete floor is so soul less.

[@c.a.g.1977]

6:17 Wow, those beams are really far gone! Hoe kwam dat eigenlijk? Waterschade door lekkage? Hopelijk is het dak nu wel waterdicht, anders is al je harde werk straks voor niets geweest, zou zonde zijn, toch? Vloer is mooi geworden!

[@SpareTimeShop]

Vooral ouderdom, ze zijn nooit eerder geschilderd. En beetje waterschade van het dak. Deze is volledig vervangen en nu ook waterdicht gelukkig 🙏

[@martinaaron609]

6:18 Is that the new wiring attached to the old rotten beams that now need to be replaced?

[@ianalderton6683]

this is pretty much what I am doing right now- so if you need a holiday in Germany- let me know, plenty to do ; )

[@mikdin1]

Very nice work! Have you considered sealing then coating with masonry paint? Helps with moisture control and dust.

[@nesertema4583]

nice job! you never considered to put some thermal insulation before pouring the concrete?

[@macedindu829]

"All this room for activities" xD

[@PhG1961]

Dit is puur genieten op Paaszondag...

[@Arshyn.KZ.]

What's your stairs opening's size please??

[@felixbalbuena4662]

Buenos

[@johncarella1836]

Bud try to break the seems on the floor joist’s!

[@petrekovairena1891]

wow

[@SleepFaster18]

Were you able to get a pretty level finish?

[@SpareTimeShop]

Hi, while its nog perfect, it's much more level than it was before. In hindsight I think i could have gotten it even better with a laser level and grade stick. Still happy with it tho 😉

[@aRndBelgianGuy]

Spotted : Colruyt boxes 🇧🇪

[@ManualFPV]

are you from belgium?

[@rubenbroex3338]

Hallo ben je tevreden over die waterseal? Om de hoeveel tijd moet je die smeren?

[@HenryLeslieGraham]

covers brick floor in concrete... destroys perfectly good wooden floors - replaces it with fecking OSB???????????????????? whats wrong with you???????????

[@HenryLeslieGraham]

@@JM-lw3nx your comment is dripping with irony

[@HenryLeslieGraham]

the order of operations makes no fecking sense. repair floor first. then seal brick floor. then paint.

[@JM-lw3nx]

oh really? that makes no sense

[@HenryLeslieGraham]
