That's one of the best small workshops i've seen. All the organisation is well thought out and has given me some ideas for my own space. That clamping system is especially nice.

[@NWGR]

Dude! You have an amazing shop! So many clever space saving ideas! And you rock for being a volunteer firefighter. Subscribed.💪

[@fathogwoodworking]

Great shop tour. Loved seeing how you make the most of your space.

[@HainjeDAF]

Hey, nice to get an overview of your workspace. Wish I had that kind of space :) Genius wheel system! And a shop cat. No shop is complete without a shop 🐈 ♥

[@JPToto]

The custom magnetic tool holders are awesome. Well done!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Thank you! Unfortunately most people have slightly different tools so it's not useful to post them on printables.com (I am on there and have uploaded serveral designs under the name idea2item).

[@woodman928]

Great shop tour and you do a great video

[@claudiazandvliet719]

I love how you make due with this little space!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

It might actually grow a bit in the near future...😇

[@PPHalpert]

This was fantastic!!! Super impressive ingenuity, handiwork and also… collection of about 50+ tools that are STILL stuck on my GODDANG “wish list” 🦾and then, you show your handmade CNC setup🦾. Holy moly 🤙 I’m gon’ subscribe fosho. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

That is a whole lot of prayses to live up to haha. Thank you, you just made my day.

[@nore8141]

I’m impressed 👍👍

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Why thank you😊 Do you have a workshop aswell?

[@nielsdoeser1010]

Great Shop Tour, beautiful solutions for a smaller shop space. Looking forward to your next video's. Thanks...

[@RenewRestorations]

You’ve utilized that small space very well! I have a 2 car garage, and I struggle with space, I’ll use some of your ideas to help get my shop more organized. New subscriber, and might I say one of the better channels on KZbin. Cheers from the US

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Thank you, That is very generous of you!😊 I'm glad you saw some ideas you might use. Can you tell me wicht one? I'd love a 2 car garage... Ah well, half the fun is making due with what you got right?😉

[@RenewRestorations]

I will probably use the idea of the lifting casters, that is an awesome way of doing that. I also like the cabinet with storage on the outside as well as the inside. Also I like the idea of your sander on the French cleat wall, I am going to attempt to use that idea for a buffer/polisher motor.

[@ltandrepants]

some great ideas! thanks for sharing! subscribed

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

You are very welcome, and welcome aboard!😊

[@joukeremark]

Goed voor elkaar! Mooi gereedschap en wel doordacht. Ander compliment dst ik ff wil maken is je Engels. Mooie uitspraak. Daar kan je prima internationaal publiek mee aantrekken en dat zie ik toch vrij weinig. Chappeau

[@cleoyora]

wow! dat ziet er geweldig uit!

[@cleoyora]

cleoyora is Ans Schipper 😃😃

[@HarisWoodshop]

Very nice shop, thanks for sharing!

[@steveparkes1266]

Great little shop. Could you tell me where you got your vertical clamping rack system from or who makes it, it's a great space saving system. Many thanks from the UK 👍

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Hello, and thank you! It comes from Baptist in the Netherlands. I think it's als called "plano clamping system" or something baptist.nl/klemmen-en-lijmen/lijmpersen/peaktool-set-3-paneelklemmen-en-wandhouder Hope you can find them locally with this information, otherwise it might be worth the shipping cost...?

[@steveparkes1266]

Thank you for replying and I look forward to seeing your future projects 👍

[@kevinwillis6707]

excellent use of space, cheers

[@mikecirrincione9895]

Thanks for the tour!

[@johnmurphy3880]

Very nice shop. Well done.

[@jaeseopark729]

it is inspiring! thanks for sharing.

[@hansangb]

@9:22 are those Fulton Panel Max clamps? Nice use of small space. I just went through my fourth iteration of a similar sized garage space (living in NYC - a dumpster fire these days - so very much restricted in space). Netherlands is a beautiful country, BTW. AMS is awesome, and the airborne museum at Arnhem is very sobering.

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Hey, you! they are I think. They have been Sold to me as "plano clamps" in the Netherlands, but it's the exact same Products. I was at the airbone Museum just last month. As you say very impressive and very interesting😊

[@EinarHagen]

Very cool shop - subscribed. :)

[@bram1167]

Leuk een beginnend kanaal. Ik zie dat je Baptist een warm hart toedraagt 😅. Veel succes, wellicht volg ik binnenkort je voorbeeld! Subscribed!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Betrapt!😅 Baptist heeft een fijn en (gedeeltelijk) uniek assortiment in Europa, ze leveren snel en de klantenservice is goed. Heb jij ook al zo'n stapel Baptist kladblokjes haha? Thanks for the subscribe!😉

[@bram1167]

@@Idea2Item-uo5ix Zelfde ervaring hier (ook met de blokjes idd 😁)

[@peterswerkstatt9853]

very nice!👍

[@th3undrgk1ng]

If you ever figure out how to put a grinding stone on your belt sander would be a sick setup

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Should'nt ne that hard now should it? I might have an opportunity to expand my shop a bit, so I will wait to see if I can Rearange it's location to be more useabel before I try tha grindign stone thing.

[@Wahnerheide]

Hello DIYer Friend, Super little tidy workshop, small downsides - Wood chisels always have their edges pointing downwards if not protected - the suction must be connected to the earth "Ground", direct self-drilling screws every meter and copper wire wrapped around the pipes connected to the screws to discharge static electricity. The mass separated from the mass of the house. Otherwise for the rest nothing to complain about...... apartment BRAVO. Kind regards, Alain from Belgium.

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Thank you! 😊 There are a few different opinions about the need to ground the ducking system like that. I believe Cats-Mozes also did a video about this and concluded that it is not necessary.

[@grantnelson7717]

Fulton panel max is another name. Not sure they are in the UK. I bet they are made in china, so maybe search those kind of sites.

[@Nick-dz4ml]

Tres cool

[@theeggman1341]

Great use of space. I can definitely pick up some ideas from this video. I’ve already put the Plano clamp system on my shopping list. Can I ask what brand the air hose reel is?

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

You can ask but I don't recommend the One I have. It is leaky as Hell 😅

[@SandySchutter]

Ziet er goed uit on!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Thank you!😘

[@SUSTHEEM]

Jeetje wat een prachtige werkplaats! Werkelijk al het gereedschap wat je nodig hebt en dat in zo'n kleine ruimte, chapeau! Kan je eens een video maken over die CNC?

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Thanks😊 dat zit er wel in ja. Ik heb nog wat andere projectjes lopen waar eerst filmpjes van gemaakt worden maar hij staat zeker op de lijst!

[@lancepedersen1236]

Can you tell me more about your 4-way panel clamping setup? I want one!

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

I bought Mine at a Dutch Company called Baptist. I believe they are also referred to as plano panel clamps. I am not sure where you are at or if they are available over there.

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]

Fulton panel max is apparently also name they are sold under according to other comments

[@BasSchenk]

phoo, jaloers makend. heel nettjes

[@ilyass221]

Mag ik u eens komen helpen met een project gratis. Ik ben schrijnwerker en wil altijd bijleren van slimme mensen. Ik wil ook inspireren voor mijn kleine atelier. Graag reactie ❤

[@WhiteSwordInterieur]

Where do you Come from? Im from frysland, starting yt as well and i have a big shop, maybe do a collab?

[@Idea2Item-uo5ix]
