Question of the video: What space saving ideas have you used in your garage or shop?

Hanging things always works. I noticed you use buckets and drums, those are the best. Any jars or cylinders make great storage.

Salvage Workshop mostly added drawers and shelves in places that had the space. My default seems to be to pile stuff on my workbench until there is no room, then build shelves/drawers to hold all the stuff that used to be on the workbench. It’s a constant struggle!

Don't try to fit 10 gallons of shit in a quart jug. The biggest problem you have is using your shop as a work area and a storage space, you can't do both at the same time and area. You had to spend several hours just moving junk to install the compressor, that should tell you something. Stop pack ratting and start tossing stuff you don't need, start with the 7 old suitcases, what good are they??? the older garden tools you don't use stuffed in the milk can and in buckets, if you don't plan on refinishing them in the near future, find somewhere else to store this stuff besides your shop, they are only taking up valuable shop space. You also have too many cabinets and filing cabinets in such a small area. Way too much clutter, unless you have a good memory better than most, you can spend half the day looking for something.

@rockislandrides The SUIT CASES are GONE!!! LOL (I still think they are pretty cool!) I AGREE!! I need an entire building dedicated to storage of materials and planned projects! Now, I do know where just about EVERYTHING in my shop is located, but the problem sometimes becomes moving things to get to it, and that's a HUGE reason for all the changes I have planned! One thing about me is that I am very good at getting awesome materials, tools, or equipment for free or very cheap that they tend to clog up the work space in the shop because I don't want to store things out in the rain. The other reason I keep many things is because I don't always have the money to just go buy whatever I need for projects, so having things in the shop has saved me A LOT of money throughout the years! It's also made it possible to do many projects when I otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford to complete, so it's a double edge sword and I've been walking it for many many years!!. Now I will say that I have a woodshop, machine shop, metal fab area, general workbench area and still room to pull a huge truck into it for work, all in one building, so in this shop, things will ALWAYS be a bit tight, but that's the reason for all the updates/ changes I plan to make! You make some very good points, and I appreciate the comment! As always, thanks for watching & commenting!

A really nice job. I too worked for years with an undersized compressor. This spring I built a dedicated compressor shed out by my barn and piped air back to my shop underground. The compressor is a new Campbell Hausfeld 80 gallon with a 25CFM pump. Its so nice to have unlimited air and no compressor noise. I also have my parts blasting cabinet in the compressor house. It's so awesome to have ample air to properly run air tools, especially the air hogs like sanders and blasting cabinets. I'm sure you really love it.

Another great series. This is inspiring me to upgrade my similar 110V freebie compressor to the 220V worn out unit I can have. If/when you add another tank and/or compressor at floor level you could run the upper compressors drain into the lower tank then drain the water from both at floor level. My suggestion to space and ease of cleanup would be some $80 Tractor Supply hose reels at each drop. Did that in my tiny garage and it helps so much. It just takes seconds to put a hose away and it's not a fight to get it to hang neatly. On your compressor if your shop gets hot maybe plumb the air intake out through the wall and down to where you can reach the filter for service. This would give it cooler intake air and also help silence the compressor. Another idea. Attach a ratchet or pull strap to that hand truck at handle level then you can strap bulky things down and they don't fight you when you try to tip it back.

Besides holding my breath as you worked under an unsecured load, good project. I believe you are required and its a good idea , to either cable or chain the elevated compressor to the roof joists and wall. The vibration will be intense, so check your fasteners at least quarterly if moderate use, mire often if use is daily or weekly. Yes. A tour, planning stages, construction and installation, as well as all the rebuild/redtorations. I'm never bored by your accomplishments. I hope your wife understands your fan base.

As an electrician, my only complaint was that panel. Made me want to come and redo the panel.
@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
totally agree! Other than adding a few breakers for certain things, that panel has been that way since Ive owned the property I I actually have a need to upgrade the panel... Here's the situation:I am considering trading some construction work for a VERY nice Lincoln Power Wave welder with wire feeder. This will give me actual mig & tig, with the option for pulse welding, but the problem is that this unit needs a dedicated 125 Amp breaker, but I only have a 100 amp panel in the shop. The main building has a 200 amp panel that feeds the shop's 100 amp panel approx 150 feet away with 2awg / gauge wire (I'm pretty sure)... My question: Can I upgrade the panel to a 150 amp or even 200 amp panel without needing to change anything in the main building other than the breaker? Also is the wiring able to handle the increased load without needing to be upgraded to a larger size wire? I would REALLY like to upgrade to this welder, but I don't want to do it unsafely either! Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
@zeepysea5 жыл бұрын
@@SalvageWorkshop You could probably do 150 amp if your main is 200 amp. I wouldn't try and go 200 amp without upgrading your main to more. If it was me, I'd up my main to 300 amp, and then up the sub panel to 200. 150 amp will have issues, if your running the welder and it's really pulling 125 amps and the compressor comes on that should trip the breaker. I don't believe the welder will pull 125 amps, I can see 60 amps. Would need to see nameplate or to know the model # to know for sure. As for the wire, yes you would need a bigger wire, 200 amp would be a #2/0 AWG while 150 is a #1 AWG. You could run it in Aluminum wire. Can get a triplex direct bury service entry wire. Normally runs about $1 a foot. As for the wire to the main, if that is your service feed, it might be able to go to 300 amp without needing to upgrade it. If your not wanting to up the main, can put a load on it (most everything that will run at once) and use a amp clamp to check how much amps are being pulled.

Excellent job on the puffer, you are to be commended for saving a quality manufactured item and bringing it back to life. Properly maintained it will see you and your children out! However, I'm not convinced with locating it where you have! In summer, the temperature in the roof space will be considerably higher than at ground level, so it's going to run much hotter. May be an issue depending on how long it runs for. Tank condensation will also be higher. Also, servicing and repairs aren't going to be convenient. It would look better at ground level to!

Nice job, I would install an exhaust hood with fan above the compressor, given the space where its located next to the pitched roof, looks like a spot where a lot of heat will generate. An exhaust fan to the outside will take heat away from the compressor and give it a longer life. You don't see many people use black iron pipe any more for compressors, they do tend to sweat and create condensation and collect water in the lower joints, unions and elbows even when the compressor isn't running. I did notice the inline water filter and also bleeder valve you installed on the bottom of the tank, a very good idea but unless you have a water separator on all your drops, you will continue to see water, this will ruin air tools and paint guns over time. While the black iron pipe is overkill, its looks like you went from 1-1/2''. 1-3/4, to 2'', used reducer nipples back down to 1/2'' npt ??? Whats the reason for this? Was this a plan or did you get the materials for free?
@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
Not a bad thought, I do have plans to install a whole house fan on that wall of the shop to help deal with heat and other fumes, but it would also help the compressor as well! The cost of buying one of those high pressure pex airline kits plus the additional fittings was insane, and black pipe may be overkill, but it will outlast most any setup, plus the way i laid everything out, it will be easy to adjust. If you look at the last part of the video, you will see a water filter / separator at every drop for that very reason, tools are expensive! All the black pipe is 3/4" pipe then I reduced to 1/2" for the water filters, and then the air line quick connects I had were all 3/8". So the main reason was using what I had, but all of the supply is 3/4".

And cant wait for the shop lay out.
@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
I considered building an enclosure for it, but the problem with putting an air compressor in an enclosed space can be the fact that additional heat builds up much faster, and that's the enemy of all equipment, especially compressor pumps. When it kicks on to refill the tank, it only runs for like 2 minutes or so, and it's not very loud. You and I could easily have a normal conversation standing next to it while it's running! That's not to mention that the fact that I wouldn't be able to enjoy my custom paint job!
@robertvalente82174 жыл бұрын
People make compressor enclosures because they buy crappy foreign compressors that are spun too quickly and make way too much noise. Buy a good industrial compressor like Saylor, Quincy, or Champion and you wont need to find ways to quiet it. The pumps are much heavier and have such a high output they can be spun at insanely low rpm and still meet your air requirements. I can barely hear my quincy 325 from my sidewalk with the garage door open. Salvage Workshops Saylor Beall is probably quieter than two people talking

Hi! I have started binging your videos, and thoroughly enjoy your content :D This compressor series was really nice. I must say I am impressed with the order you have your stuff in. I always thought drawers is where stuff goes to die, but you have given me some inspiration. Looking forward to seeing more of the skid steer. Cheers.

I want to see more and the setup of the outdoor air line. Very curious what you do and don't get rid of when cleaning out. I have a ton of junk I need to make decisions to toss.

I'll definitely include that upgrade in a video in the future! The biggest problem with my shop is that I need another entire building for storage of materials and future projects. Part of the reason Its called SALVAGE Workshop is because I am always re-purposing things and building things from used or salvaged materials, but storing them ca be difficult, so I guess we'll see what I come up with! I appreciate the feedback!

Enjoy the video. Was wondering the weight of the compressor on a shelf. Would enjoy shop layout videos in the future. Thanks for sharing.

@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
I totally agree! The only other thing I considered is one of those premade high pressure pex kits, but the cost for one of those plus all the extra fittings I needed was insane! My shop is a bit of a cluster right now as well!! I plan to change that!

The bolts going trough the tank's feet will conduct vibrations directly to the shelf and defeat the purpose of the pads. If you want to install bolts,you need to also use pads between the bolts washers and the tank's feet. tank and shelf must be completly isolated from each other. You made suspensions there,while bushings would work way better : )
@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
I'm sure some vibration will be sent through the bolt, but a large amount of it will be dampened by the pads, and that's all I was going for... Before I had the rubber pads under the feet and before it was bolted down I turned it on to see how much it might vibrate, and it runs so smooth that it didn't move at all... Now I do like the idea of adding rubber washers or pads on either side of the washers, and that wouldn't take much add. I appreciate the thoughts!! As always, thanks for watching & commenting!

If no one else has mentioned it... if you run the air intake out the roof & use a good water proof (shielded) air filter it will drastically reduce the noise in the shop. I you happen to build build a sound deadening box around the compressor you can use cheap ceiling tiles to line the inside walls. They work great for noise reduction. It may not make it silent but will definitely take 90% of the noise out of the shop.
@SalvageWorkshop5 жыл бұрын
It's not really all that loud, but that's not a bad thought... I would probably send it out the side of the shop... I try to avoid the potential for leaks in the roof! I will not build a sound proof box around it, because then I cant enjoy the awesome paint job I gave it, but if I was to do so, it would be with clear PVC panels!

@@SalvageWorkshop... Give it a try... you'l be surprised the difference it makes. What I discovered in my own shop years ago is how the compressor was magically connected to the phone... every time it rang the compressor would turn on! You might not experience the same phenomenon? As an artist myself I wouldn't cover up the graphics either... they are awesome. A great design idea. Really enjoyed the video series.
