The workshop is a disaster! Let's fix it up.

Time to spend a day at our woodworking shop organizing, upgrading, and making room for new tools! Our shop has been assembled bit by bit over the last 15 years, and we have realized that some of the setup is not optimal for the type of projects we using it for.... all we needed was a rainy day and some man power to get it fixed up! Stay tuned for a tour of the upgrades and new tools we have now!

Fun to watch shop organization. Jamie is naturally entertaining.

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Hey thanks Tom! He blew my mind when he pulled out that microscope

[@johnelona14]

This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things kzbin.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

[@KevinBasher]

Watching this I had a strange feeling I'd seen it before. Did a quick "research" . Turns out some of the content has been recycled from "Building the Farmhouse Day 38". Anyway, your videos are always entertaining. Keep up the great work :)

[@dylan67131]

Thanks was wondering the same thing

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Thanks Kevin! I should hire you to do my research… Jaime and I couldn’t figure out if we had used these clips or not!

[@craigpritch]

Same. No mention on this video that the guys were SUPPOSED to be building window trim this day. 😂

[@glenjerome]

I was thinking the same thing when jaime started making a table for the epoxy stuff....I was like waitttt a minuteeee I've seen this before.

[@cvh627]

Thanks for figuring this out I was worried I’d had a stroke or this was incredible deja vu. Would love to have a shop like this.

[@sassyfassy8594]

Hey guys. If I remember correctly, you mentioned once that your father used to build small, affordable housing for families in your area. I would love to see a video on some of the houses he built. I enjoyed the video starring your step father and his guitar building skills. If any of your father's houses are still standing, I would love to see one

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Hey thanks that’s a great idea… He did mainly build for local folks that were river guides on the Nantahala.

[@anthonymccoy4460]

What is the guitar building video called?

[@sassyfassy8594]

@@anthonymccoy4460 I'm not sure. But it's one of their earlier videos in their Playlist.

[@Zamboni-0805]

This is definitely one of my favorite KZbin channels! I normally get bored watching a 20-30 min video and find myself fast forwarding, but not with this channel. I could watch an hour or more and not be bored for 1 second. Keep up the great work guys.

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Hey thanks! Really appreciate it 🤜🤛

[@xtrm.mayhem4098]

I have 0 interest in wood working but Jamie's passion and knowledge is very contagious.

[@brtko_marek]

yeah, watching and hearing him talk about stuff, makes me want to make something from wood myself ! :D

[@pharmerthom77]

I’m blowing through all your guys’ video catalog. I’m surprised you all aren’t always hired out and busy. I am so pleased you continue to post videos!

[@duenge]

I have been binge-watching your channel recently. The thing I enjoy the most is the relationship all of you have together. You are ALL brothers.....And I am envious of that...

[@kevinjarrett5178]

Jason just makes me enjoy life. I hope he is as much fun in real life as he comes across in the videos.

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

He’s even more fun in real life

[@josharnold9574]

Jason, is that you?

[@Fredzjodoin]

I watch your videos with my 5yo daughter who only speak French. She don't understand a word of what Jason says but she just said to me "this guy is always happy". Keep on being so positive guys we love you!

[@DJMmaker]

I love when Erik just lets Jaime talk about stuff that he likes like this and doesn't trim it or speed it up.

[@jose-vw1up]

With the price of wood right now, Jaime has a treasure in his work shop, on that collection of wood.

[@LucasGuarni]

Is this a repost? I've already watched the same video some months ago :)

[@jeremywoods3393]

I was thinking the same

[@remodz6385]

Yup

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

We used parts of it in our farmhouse series… But then never did a final tour of our finished upgrades!

[@sailingtheblessing6557]

I thought so too, but only parts of it, like the bit where they were looking through the woodworking books.

[@Doogle81]

I turned 2 giant cabinets that were being thrown out at work that used to hold those massive drawings into my garage tool chest. Works so well!!!

[@Dontworryaboutitq]

Should’ve put the heavy equipment on dollys while you had all those extra hands to help. Would have made it easier to move stuff in the future

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

That’s a good tip

[@bobhowell2027]

Hey. guys. Just found your channels about a month ago and I'm hooked. I noticed a couple times, there were questions about carpentry pencils. MY grandfather was a carpenter during WWII and built houses for the ship builders in Portland, Ore. Anyway, he always said the pencil measured 1/4 x 1/2 so he always had those measures and didn't have to unfold the wood one. if you keep it sharpened correctly, it will stay sharper longer. Thanks for the great shows.

[@rockyroadranch72]

I will likely never build a house but you all are so fun to watch. Each one of you have distinct personalities and are entertaining in your own way. ❤ Thanks for all the hours spent with this old woman.

[@nickywunderwood]

Jason Always make me smile. He is my favorite haha. I am new to this Channel and now im lovin it and very addictive tbh Jamie passion and knowledge of his work is amazingly incredible and entertaining at the same time. PS Jason Dancing at the end got me laughing so much 😆 😆

[@b_lumenkraft]

Jamie: "You can't make more space." To which i say, yes you can. You are in the business of making more space. You are building living space day by day.

[@alexroge6495]

5:40 thats firewood mate

[@kchappell65247]

We need more shop videos, I'm rewatching this one lol

[@robfryer9962]

Jamie needs a label machine now for his new shop 👍🏻

[@cascaII]

The knocking sound at 0:39 scared the sh*t out of me. Holy moly!

[@MrNickeast]

Jamie love your attention to detail! Some may say anal or OCD but I'm the exact same way. It's just called doing it right the first time. Love how humble you guys are. You dealt with your accident so well and didn't let it stop you from keepin on. Keep it up gents love your videos so much!

[@taywilson2939]

20:46 French Cleats and rolling cart changed everything for us. I teach 9-12 woodworking and construction customizable tool wall with tool specific holders

[@mbonilla109]

One of my favorites. I LOVE organization.

[@philmoore71]

wow. drool drool. way better than my outside open carport setup

[@kdubyuh]

Building the Farmhouse - Day 38. I knew I remembered most of this video!!!

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

There it is! Jaime and I sifted through all of our videos and we’re convinced that we never really used this content because we were looking for a shop build video.

[@kdubyuh]

@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers I still enjoyed the video. For the first few minutes I thought I was living a dream! Deja Vu! Love the upgrades to the shop guys!

[@isaiahjohnston4731]

I thought I was going crazy and dreamed it all up 🤪

[@efenili]

I was just getting into a groove of getting rid of lumber I didn't think I'd use in forever but with the market for lumber as it is, I'm literally taking things out of the trash now just in case :(

[@jayrichardson5093]

Getting old does suck! Especially if you think like you're 35 when your actually 65. Looking forward to tackling some of the projects you guys have done. Awesome stuff ,keep it coming!

[@xXelitegpXx]

Lol we’ve seen that footage already. “Name that bit”

[@jays259]

Just a bunch of good old boy's love this channel lol.

[@michaellll24]

Jamie is so cool! Love your shop Jamie. You’re the man, all of you guys are!

[@jimmysavagian7584]

I would love to come see you guys in June. My father and I will be in North Carolina in June around the third week. It will be an honor too meet the crew!

[@fuegoman45]

The chemistry and friendship between the 4 of you is amazing 🤩 One of my favorite channels 🤙

[@stephenjacob9316]

What an awesome bunch of guys. Very fun to watch.

[@rgarlinyc]

Great to watch - and like me, you like everything in its place and a place for everything! 👍🏻

[@crtinkering7323]

Adding a larger size hose to your vacuum will increase air volume but you will lose velocity which is why it wont suck up larger shavings. I've learned alot in the automotive world that bigger is not always better. Anyways just a tip if you are still having issues with the vacuum system.

[@christopherking7509]

This made my day gentleman. Lol back to the job Monday. I always watch videos I miss the Mtns I was born and raised in Murphy north Carolina. Live in California now. But have been a Carpenter my entire life. Just good energy guys thanks. Always good seeing yall even though im kinda new to your page. Hey over a month or 2 now. But enjoy a cold beer at the end of my day and watch some videos. All good 👍 👌 lol

[@janices6370]

Put a chicken wire screen on the sawdust collector box to keep the cats out.

[@KurtMGibbs]

The American Optical Forty, dissecting microscope, is a great addition to the shop.

[@AlexAlex-zn9lf]

Always super entertaining to watch your guys videos, keep ‘em going boys keep ‘em going !

[@bludog4657]

The shop looks absolutely AMAZING Jamie.

Thanks Thor Eric

The router bit challenge was hilarious. Shop looks nice!

Thanks Brian!

THIS is quality material that I would watch over and over again!!! And over again!

Thank you:)

[@mmgobey]

Great video again but I’m not sure I can ever unsee the dancing

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

🤣

[@Beandiptheredneck]

Hes really got one heck of a home wood shop going on there. If I were into woodwork that would be what I'd want.

[@g_force3857]

Getting old certainly does NOT suck ! Not getting old is worse for sure…..

[@loricraig3306]

Thanks for letting Jamie talk

[@CharlesLScofieldJr]

Jamie... I'm glad that you shared how you lost your fingers. I was curious but didn't want to just ask. My father used to build kitchen and bathroom cabinets. He had a good sized shop but not as nice as yours. He lost one of his fingers in a shaper that the bit turned at like 22,000 rpm. He said he never even felt it, it wasn't until he saw the blood splater against the wall behind the shaper that he realized what had happened. He ended up losing a couple others too Dupuytren contracture. Turns out Dupuytren contracture is hereditary, both my brothers have had it and at 70 I'm starting to get it in one hand. I will say it doesn't seem to slow you down much. The new shop look is great.

[@eddiemata8158]

You guys remind me of my grand dad great job always in our prayers.

[@milesharlan1]

Nice Sunday Afternoon Video!! Thank you PBB keep up the good work!!

[@mindi.m]

I loved this! It was fun to watch. The painting really made a difference. If Jaime can't find what he needs, he makes it!

[@Natedoc808]

Waiting on windows is so ridiculous. There are 10 houses in my area currently sitting idle and getting rained on/in waiting for windows. We are remodeling/additions to a house, bought all of our windows from a big box store because they had them on hand.

[@jeanielipskey1272]

Man, that is quite the shop, don't know a man on earth that wouldn't love having one like it!

[@regularguy9264]

One of the most unique and cool kitchens I ever built used workshop cabinets with a stainless steel finish along with butcher block countertops. It looked industrial, but a number of wood tones including the countertop warmed it up. It also was super heavy duty drawers. Nice shop there Jaime!

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Ohhhh! I like that! That would make a pretty awesome kitchen.

[@svause]

Bojangles! So very jealous.... not in Oregon (yet)...

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Bojangles is pretty amazing! Next time you come to North Carolina make sure to find one

[@bundylam]

Loving the sound system.... 😎😎

[@michaelcolgan3182]

Getting old is cool . Working in a shop in your basement has to suck . I had a 30x50 building with 12 foot ceilings . It was 2x6 framed 5/8 sheet rocked with r-30 in the walls. Warm as it gets .

[@Palpatine4Senate]

Finally, Jaime get to talk!

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

I think he enjoyed it

[@tank75nc]

I'm so jealous of your lunch. I'm a native North Carolinian but live out west now and only get Bojangles when I come home to visit. Looked very tasty! Love the content fellas, keep it up!!

[@saiskanda]

Been watching the channel for a while now but only today for some reason, You two seem like Phineas and Ferb to me!

[@carolewarner101]

Oh god... I can't unsee that pole dance. Why?! 🤣🤣🤣

[@danielgeng2306]

Jamie, on your bench was a hand saw miter box, it folds out and uses a hinge pin to keep it open, no doubt your grandfather’s , on my bench is the same miter box and it was my grandfather’s . We have a lot in common my friend, I even have the same Unisaw. Love your shop, and love the Perkins brothers and crew!

[@DewaltFanboy]

Im cleaning up my garage right now and this video is motivating me super hard !

[@jamesmarks8099]

I didn’t know Jamie was so well equipped! Why don’t you guys hire a carpenter when doing the finishing work. Make your own stairs, railings, with the Cnc you can make your own cabinets etc. I made all my own stuff for my house including fake raised panel doors from mdf etc with my Cnc. My entire kitchen cost somewhere around 1500 including engineered quartz countertops. You could cut your costs drastically!

[@idontthinkso666]

ahem. well equipped indeed.

[@jlewis1688]

Another fantastic video, I'm just building my workshop at the moment, thanks for the tips and tricks in fitting it out, you guys make me laugh , thanks from the Uk !!!

[@doritleis2773]

A new Colour for the Workshop from Jamie and all to clear. And a Test from the Name to the Div. Drill. Erik make of Doctor and speech over Supplement Food. To last to Explain, why in his Workshop all is how is is. And he have all to his Idea make. 👍😉😂

[@chadlegaultgmail]

Sooooo jealous of all the wood that Jamie has. Wow!

These vids are a 7 course meal and sometimes I gotta take a nap after all the inspiration. Thanks again for the Sunday vid and now inspired to do some improvements too. Each of you guys are SUPER inspiring.

[@kevindoyle4521]

Loved the shop tour. My shop needs love like that, but I have projects that need to be finished first.

[@chrisfekete1789]

I see the dust collector hanging from the ceiling those are nice I have two in my shop I use mostly grizzly tools they are pretty good tools I also have my collection hose under ground for my table saw and also have my collector in it’s own room for sound

[@jaywashington2196]

Thanks for the update video

[@Grantski2007]

Foam inserts in those drawers will help Jaime I know he’s meticulous and he’d always know when somethings missing

[@haydne]

I think there's a term called "workshop envy", and I have it! my new workshop is 4x8, before that I had nothing so it's a massive upgrade in my life. Somewhere to do stuff..OUT OF THE RAIN! Yep, I'm happy with it and you can only use what you have space for!

[@estebanvaldes]

AWESOME SHOP, Love you guys, you are fun bunch, normal dudes with lots of work, big and same fan from Ensenada, Baja Mexico

[@renaldohendricks1670]

lol at the 5 minutes build. A few years back, whilst waiting for my stuff to come when we moved back to our hometown just before xmas, I slapped together a Pine Table which I have since been repurposed as my work from home "desk".

[@waterislife.9204]

Jamie your the bomb. Amazing shop and woods. Love the vacuum. 🦾🙏

[@jamesmarks8099]

If Jamie ever has questions about the new Cnc dm me! I’ve built a and used a couple of them. Really anything at all like troubleshooting or making tool paths etc! Consider it a sponsorship where you don’t have to do sell any of my products. Thanks for the entertainment!

[@PerkinsBuilderBrothers]

Thanks James! He has gone down a real rabbit hole with that thing the last few weeks

[@BruceAUlrich]

I never thought to cut the concrete and run the pipe under there. I always run them up above and have them drop down to the tool.

[@mikehughes2026]
