Our Ultimate Garage Workshop Setup / S5-Ep12

[@rustybits5342]

every man needs a Vera

[@ivanhoe6366]

Good luck in finding one!

[@alexshapley8331]

So true

[@Andre-z5p5m]

Very rare !

[@chriscurrie5597]

Bloody ell Vera, 2,minutes in and you say something we dare not mention in the uk anymore, " doesn't smell cheap Chinese". I cried laughing 😂 😂

[@landrover90]

I’m not into self censorship. I say this all the time in merry old England. Chinesium does have its place but not where you require precision.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍👌🙋‍♀️

[@utahagentz]

Why can't you say that in The UK? Really? Orwellian

[@kevharwood536]

❤

[@boyblunder8889]

A long time ago in a galaxy far away …. We used to say it’s “Jap crap” , as many things were made in Japan , now it’s “Chinese crap” , I often say things look like a cheap Chinese product, “looks great on the outside, but a pile of crap on the inside”

[@glenndarragh4417]

I'm a great believer in the old saying - " buy expensive and complain once or buy cheap and complain all the time ". Loving the Austrian made tool bench !

[@ccaldwell8556]

My "Vera" is named Lorelei, and she helps me in my shop too. (We build Jeeps). If she wanted to decide where the sockets go, I would let her. The relationship Christian and Vera have is one of the many reasons I love this channel.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👌👍 Super cool. We started with major wrenching on our Jeeps too, we never had an LJ so. 🙋‍♀️

[@deriusnorris4463]

Exactly.

[@nickb5391]

Thank you for showing us the German war memorial, we have one at Cannock Chase German military cemetery here in the UK, It's so sad that so many soldiers, airmen & sailors lost their lives on all sides, there were many that didn't want to fight but had no choice, let them all rest in peace & never be forgotten

[@Andrewpc2023]

Christian Vera is right. Sockets in one space and easy to deliver to the vehicle. Oh it’s so good to get involved in someone else’s domestic arrangements. This video gives your fans a great incite into German domestic harmony. Keep it up guys we love it.

[@jamesh2436]

Thanks for the great video as always guys. Really enjoyed it. Can I ask what the brand of the tool storage Bench is please? Would love to get one for my home garage 😊

[@Vera_and_Christian]

it's from HBM. 👍👌🙋‍♀️

[@Stuart602]

The best two precision tools in this workshop are Vera and Christian. They can perform any repair or manufacturing with the utmost accuracy.

[@Hyperdrive2]

Vera packs a very nice tool chest which I am sure Christian appreciates .

[@alanadair2367]

😂👍

[@WhosPhotoTube]

Very moving to see on the memorial that you Christian lost both your Grandpa and Great Uncle in WWII, RIP for Phillip and Peter Muth.

[@dadgarage7966]

Since late-model diesel Land Rover vehicles are rare to non-existent in the U.S. and Canada (a huge audience), this might be a factor in the growth of this channel. Although I drive Toyotas, I enjoy Land Rover ownership and maintenance vicariously through Vera and Christian.

[@Andre-z5p5m]

....and she makes lunch too ! That is now a very well appointed workshop (that a Toyota owner doesn't need) Love your videos...very entertaining !

[@doneB830]

Vera is worth gold, what a lovely workshop asset to have. You are such a lucky man, bless you both.

[@raycollington4310]

As we thought, Vera is the brains of the operation. She did an amazing job organising all that. The toolbox is fantastic, I don't think the price is too high. I missed what brand it is. This was a fun intersesting video. Thank you both.

[@guyemmott4009]

Best part of Sunday..LR Time with Christian and Vera.. Thank you guys 😊 👏

[@E.Moralejo]

AWESOME, fantastic upgrade to the shop! "You should have painted the walls first" says the Desktop Home Improvement Guy! Toyota guys would have made a whole video on how to paint the walls behind an empty tool box LOL...

[@Vera_and_Christian]

We will too, when we are waiting for parts to be ordered and delivered once we know what the actual problem is with our new project Disco. That is just to get started. There will be at least 2 to 3 weeks of layover time. 👍🙋‍♀️

[@leeloo21231234]

the thing is on wheels they can move it any time easy.

[@pascalschneider8145]

The problem with Volkswagen is that it's Volkswagen...i cannot anymore 🤣 das bringt's genau auf den Punkt. Grüsse aus Luxemburg.👋

[@dnscud1]

Vera is the best tool in the shop bar none. Love you both

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅😊🙏🙋‍♀️

[@jstokvis]

This channel just gets better and better, wonderful.

[@johanndork5364]

Nice video, I liked the ending with the castle walk. Perhaps do a walk to the village ‘pubs’ too. Good speed with the next big job.

[@michaeldallimore8590]

Well done Vera. I had to show this video to my wife. She thought I had too many tools! Very good video thanks.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍We have three more workshops full of tools. 🙋‍♀️

[@free2chasehappy]

And thanks for sharing the views around your house, the castle and the history of your family. Beautiful touches like those make you one of my favorite yt channels!

[@TheKnightstar13]

You are both so lucky to have found a partner that wants to share the interests and work that you do. It is a very rare combination. I love your channel and your humour (Chtistian) is hilarious. Vera your dedication to your part is amazing. I do hope that Christian spoils you. Keep up the amazing work, it has become my "Go to" resource for work on my RRS 2006. 😊

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😃👍💪🙋‍♀️

[@TheDaf95xf]

Good evening Vera and Christian 😊 Every man needs a Vera in their man cave 🤣 What a fantastic job Vera did in organising your tool chest Christian 🤩 Nice seeing the Queen 👸 Life will be easy for you now Christian 👍🏻 Hugs 🤗 for Vera xx

[@vernonbennettiii3646]

Thank goodness you made it all "official" by affixing an "LR Time" sticker on your new tool chest! 👍

[@fred9281]

Only recently came across your channel and now I’m hooked.

[@rafflesnh]

I hope you subscribed? 😉

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍🙏🙋‍♀️

[@treywilder8630]

Love your new setup and congrats! I always enjoy seeing the little bits of German life and even some history that you include in the end of your videos.

[@robintaylor6159]

Vera one in a million 🎉

[@jase9951]

Excellent! The castle history was the best part.

[@petergamblin2173]

Wow look, that's a clever Bush. It's reading the instructions.

[@richardharker2775]

Nothing like a tidy (mega) toolbox. Vera is a very good organiser. Beautiful part of the country you live in.

[@Austringer]

I only just found this channel, was looking for a specific video on timing belt change, but ended up watching 12 hours straight! What a great channel, the best videos and such a fantastic couple. I will be watching a lot more, hilarious and best information at the same time. marks 11 out of 10

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😳😅🙏🙋‍♀️

[@johnekins4408]

Please please please come and organize my shop, I hate doing it you obviously love it.

[@RICHIE87622]

Wow that is a really cool tool chest! I guess im going to have to up grade my plastic bags with random tool bits in!!😢 Really enjoyed the castle tour and the overview of your pretty village! Almost as pretty as the discovery 4! I watch a farmer (olly blogs) here in the uk, he make a video everyday and has just celebrated 4 year's (everyday! even on christmas day😮) I gather from what he says pressing the like 👍 button is really important for the youtube algorithm. Your faithful skinny legged fan. Richard

[@jrnmller1551]

Kristian thanks for acknowledging, that without Vera is it not possible, very gentlemanlike, looking forward to next sunday!!

[@nelsyoung833]

This set up is more convenient that adds more mobility and ease in your workspace. So much so that you have a major engine rebuild next on your list. Great planning! More Sundays to anticipate!

[@lyndonkapoor8823]

I loved that shot of you both sitting staring across your garage at your new work bench with tool storage. Too cute 😅😂 I must say though that your new garage layout is very cool 👌👌

[@mattpepper1143]

I see that Vera will have a tight reign over the organisation... she couldn't wait to get the tools out your hand Christian and put it back in the draw😂 great job and great set up guys.. I'm only a bit jealous..

[@BerlietGBC]

I don’t know about you two, what’s wrong with bucket of tools and working in a muddy puddle like me . Liking the new tool bench. Great view across your valley and the castle. Bring on next week 🎉

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Nothing is wrong. We have been doing it that way for thirty years. But now, with creating KZbin content and wrenching weekly on our own project cars, I do have earned myself a nice workbench. And the lift, cost us not even 1000€. 👌👍🙋‍♀️

[@BerlietGBC]

@@Vera_and_Christian I was only joking , everything looks brilliant. I also now I'm older and wiser (lol) like to invest in good equipment, well done 💯

[@waikanaebeach]

Vera is an absolute treasure, very beautiful and a great sense of humour…..

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😊🙏🙋‍♀️

[@anthonyreed2228]

Cheaper and much nicer than my Halfords Advanced tool cabinet! I am very jealous 😊

[@_marcus_does_]

Fantastic! The best LR channel going.

[@melgregory7339]

Fantastic ! A place for everything and everything in its place. I went the cheap Chinese plastic drawer route, I spend more time trying to get them opened and then get them closed again. I'm sure we could all do with a bit of Vera's German discipline in our workshops.🙂

[@DamagedDingo]

Thanks for showing us around at the end. It’s a beautiful valley and castle.

[@thomaskeane429]

Good morning Your videos are part of my life now, there very interesting and educational, thank you Christian and Vera. By the way your living in very beautiful part of your country. Regards Thomas

[@alabalanutnbolt]

I have just added the 55” tool chest to my collection of storage . It cost £550 with free delivery in the UK. Good organisational skills from Vera .

[@calsurflance5598]

This channel was recommended to me by a fellow Land Rover owner. You guys are hilarious to watch. A great team. You work together excellent! I am a retired aircraft mechanic and that tool box is by-far too nice! Lol I will be following along!👍

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍🙏🙋‍♀️

[@WoodyinBright]

There is certainly something very satisfying about reorganising all your tools and equipment in a logical manner. The problem I always have after a reorganisation, is I can never find anything again! Looks very good!

[@robmurg]

I admire all the custom-made special tools you turn out. I do similar but on a much more modest scale. One difference is that when I find a tool I made 3-4 years ago I always think 'This is a very useful tool for a very specific job, if only I could remember what that was...'

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Yeah we lable them for that reason, especially for the suspension. Most tools we make, due to our content Land Rovers, we use often. 😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@MartinNash-q1c]

Absolutely love your straightforward approach with which your open personalities make for very enjoyable content. Not forgetting if course, the excellent technical elements of your videos.

[@mdshovel]

Busy day meant I missed this morning's piece of joy. After dinner .. loving it. Best thing on Sundays

[@johnnyknap]

So that’s what the cardboard is for Oil leaks! Looks a nice smelling bit of kit that tool bench. Beautiful job ,very well.

[@brucemoe9180]

To my favorite "Torqueaholic" on KZbin, hopefully, you reserve one of those new tool boxes just for your torque wrench collection... As many times as I've heard you utter, "I'm not a mechanic", I can believe it with as much time as you spend torquing every little, insignificant bolt on the car, and for what, it's either a Land Rover or a Range Rover; everyone knows they will just break again after 10,000 km. Oh well, working on those cars will provide you with plenty of content for years to come!! Regards, The Toyota Guy

[@Romenet310]

I am from the States. You can have all of the Hollywood celebrities, I would be more star struck if I ever met these two.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅🤗🙋‍♀️

[@robertmoss279]

The way Vera has the ability to arrange her Draws is astounding, there is a job for you in my garage anytime. I have a nice Mercedes that needs careful hands 👍🏻

[@milabaigar]

Fantastic 👍am very envious, Vera has the same enthusiasm as Christian for automotive stuff 🤣😂🤣😂

[@martynbush]

Sunday morning, chillout time with a cup of tea and LR Time.

[@jfb_ventures]

Lieber Christian & Vera, vielen Dank für den letzten Teil, in dem ihr uns euer Schloss und den Wald gezeigt habt. Ihr habt so ein Glück, in solch einer schönen Umgebung zu leben!

[@Vera_and_Christian]

An unser Grundstück grenzt ein Campingplatz und viele machen hier Urlaub. Christian

[@BrianBrunebjergNielsen]

Thanks for the entertaining and educational videos and i dont even own a landrover. The closest is that my engine is a PSA engine. 🤣 Driving a Citroen 1.6 hdi. But your fliosofi and mechanical, i think you both encourage people to seek informatioan and start wrenching by themselfes. I am subscribed to Sout Main Auto which is an awsome trouble shooting inspiration allong with Ivans channel Pine hollow auto repai i think it is called

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😊🙏👍 Thank you 🙋‍♀️

[@leerolfe5332]

As a plumber of over 30 years guys get them channel locks ditched for Knipex. I've tried all pump pliers over the years and the blue ones are trash. Even Crescent are better. The action on Channel Locks is sooooo crude.

[@HenryAyrestheoriginal]

I got claustrophobia in that tunnel thing. That was wild.

[@alexshapley8331]

👍👍👍 next week you can start using your newly reorganised garage for real (body off job etc)

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Check out our video from yesterday. Body is off. 😃👌🙋‍♀️

[@darrencoyle3290]

I am currently looking for a new tool box myself, 30yrs plus of tools.. I remember buying tools as a young lad of sixteens yrs old and I still have them and have a connection to each and every tool and where I bought it. Nice looking bench and nice that Vera sorted it ready for the engine repair.

[@daz.j]

nice video the only thing i see missing is a large sign pointing to the fan spanner lol you know your gonna forget where that is

[@allsearpw3829]

Hi , all this just to keep LAND ROVERS on the road , could have brought cheap Chinese cars and containers off air fresheners for the cost ? lol . and cheep roller skates for Vera . ALL WAYS FUN TO WATCH . Will all these tools get your wheel changes done in under 2.4 seconds ???? 🤔❤👍👍 ⛔to my tool box Vera .

[@free2chasehappy]

Love the new workshop setup! The rolling toolbox will definitely help you with your future repairs, good to see it's made in Austria too!

[@Poppageno]

I too dislike those floppy ratcheting wrenches! Vera is worth the Queen's weight in gold as a tool/companion!

[@pwatom22]

The problem with a Volkswagen is it's a Volkswagen... I love my mkv gti but unbelievable what's involved to simply replace a thermostat ! ... most of my tools got stolen last year. You buy tools over many years, so not easy to just replace what you had. Yet another excellent, informative and entertaining video..

[@glenndarragh4417]

I'm afraid I gave up on VW when they abandoned air cooling.

[@aljabarr]

I dig it up for you all. When you pause at 0:18 you can see HBM Machines logo on the cardbox. Not sure it was made in Austria. When you google HBM 215 cm you can find it. It looks like a generic workbench sold under many brand names. Nonetheless it looks really solid.

[@grahamclifton5849]

OMG ! Can we have more of TOOL TIME VERA PLEASE? especially in a white vest top & jeans, purely on an esthetic basis 😉

[@Vera_and_Christian]

🫣😅👍🙋‍♀️

[@LionTheHeart]

Man needs a workshop... without it he is only half a man.. great video! Vera looks and sounds great... man's gotta have his curvaceous assistant too!

[@freespeech2261]

Tool box looks great, you guys deserve it as you work so hard on your cars. I'd love to see you paint the garage floor and fit some LED lights. (if you get time)

[@Rderbbux]

Hey i realy liked the bit at the end with the local history and the old castle👍 top job as always. From buxton uk high peak.

[@jebw]

Thankyou for the castle and village tour. I think Vera is transforming your workshop into a kitchen in preparation for a takeover. You should build a new bigger work shed as a precaution. 😉

[@terencesoutham4262]

The Quality increased when you put your LR Time stick on it.😂😂❤❤

[@Okierover]

Love, love, that workshop. Mine needs an overhaul too, I just don't want to spend the money on a new bigger tool box like that. Thank you for showing us your castle and sharing about your grand parents.

[@rafflesnh]

Good morning and thank you both for another hugely entertaining vlog. Great start to any day, especially a Sunday. Keep well and best wishes to all the family. 👍

[@gerardmccarthy2432]

A nice 6" vice on the left side of the top would make the new toolbox very versatile.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

We have so many vices installed in our different workshops, which we will use if needed. And the one installed in our garage, we hardly ever used. 👍🙋‍♀️

[@brianwhittington5086]

Those pliers at 15:00 look like they are from a multi purpose crimping tool set for vehicle trimmers. Those particular heads fitted, look like those you would use to affix the circular base of a Lift the Dot type hood faster on car soft top and tonneau cover materials. The crimp heads can be swapped over, to suit many different types and sizes of fasteners, such as leather hole punches, and for crimping rope eyelets in tarpaulin covers etc.

[@stephendawson9947]

Another great video, loving the tool chest, and Vera is definitely your best asset.

[@ccconlan2670]

ITS LR TIME😊😊😊 Great quality tool/ bench.preperation is everything.looking forward to the rebuild.till next week😊😊

[@daftDAFdriver]

You two are so funny 😂😂

[@harveysmith100]

I started off with the exact same Craftsman toolbox as you. I too had to buy a bigger box. That is now full and I need an even bigger box! It never ends.

[@stoveguy2133]

I put cyl heads on my work bench quite often.

[@24710635]

Loved this, Vera really gets into the tool storage and does a brilliant job. Well done.❤

[@Pauly5150]

So satisfying to organise everything. No longer a debarkle.

[@petermckee1061]

I enjoyed that very much, as I do all of your videos. I always love to see peoples workshops and how they're set up. Thanks for the tour of the schloss. Rather poignant to see that one of your relatives died on his 32nd. birthday. Cheers, Peter.

[@diesvincent1904]

Hello from the US! I love the videos and gave me the confidence to buy my first LR4

[@Vera_and_Christian]

💪💪👍🙋‍♀️

[@timwilliams2343]

I just salvaged a pile of flat cardboard sheets for the next round of jobs... like shop towel, a shop vac and cleaning supplies, which are never mentioned but always used!

[@kadamwilliams8742]

People would be amazed at what a 150 to 200 piece tool kit can do! As an engineer, I worked through college as a mechanic and could fix 90% of the problems with a handle full of wrenches, screw drivers and pliers! For automotive stuff, a range or torque tools and random model specific tools are all you need. $300 in tools will maintain your vehicle for 200k miles.

[@darrenhaywood9260]

Great new set up guys, hopefully KZbin helped you pay for that stuff. Loved the video but my car won’t start !!!!😂

[@bc691]

A great applause to vera 👏👏👏👏👏

[@adelal-rawashdeh1050]

Your Garage Workshop All The Time Be Regular Now With New Tool Box Be More Regular & Be Perfect ..I agree With Vera To keep Sockets In There Box , Good Idea , Christian , Vera You Are Doing Great Job .. Well Done .

[@psv1600]

That’s a clever idea of course. I also use mostly this plastic wrench and sockets all the time 😅

[@daverdaceng]

A toolbox tour! - exactly what I wanted - thanks so much (so interesting to see what you do and don't use - some surprises there)

[@thebasset]

wow.. what an amazing place to live. i am really jealous .. looks so peaceful, unlike my city in the UK ☹

[@diesdasananass]

Das ist ja mal ne richtig coole Werkbank. :) Ich wusste ja nicht das es diese in solchen Größen auch auf Rollen gibt. Leider passt die nicht in meine Fertig-Garage. Da muss ich wohl mal was anbauen. Lol :)

[@hallyfella]

As always guy's great video . Some really nice scenery too.

[@richstratton8583]

Very nice job organising everything. I would vote for the sockets in the draws but ditch the case and put them on socket organiser spikes, very handy for finding the right sized socket quickly.

[@anujprivate]

Wow do you own that castle, Christian mentioned his grandfather's name.

[@cribbs946]

I finally have a tool that you don't! 😂 Have a look at FLEXIBLE RATCHET HOSE CLAMP PLIERS it makes removing Discovery thermostats much easier. Very nice workbench/toolbox 👍

[@Vera_and_Christian]

We have that too, it's in the forth drawer. We also have shown that in videos previously. 👍😅🙋‍♀️

[@cribbs946]

@Vera_and_Christian Of course you do! 😂 I just bought one, the thermostat job would've been a nightmare with vise grips. It's so nice that you reply to the comments, thank you. After watching your videos, we now own a D3 and a D4 as our main cars. My 1963 series is the backup vehicle - but nowhere near as comfortable!
