This New Workshop Space is EPIC! A NEW BEGINNING for The Skid Factory!

[@woznaldo]

No gonna lie here. I got a little emotional on this one seeing the kid come good! I don’t think Al would have stepped back if he didn’t believe you’re more than up to it. I’d also like to say thanks to your sponsors for continuing to support. I think we all win here. Love your work Woody! Don’t go changing!

[@FULLTHROTTLEAUTO]

Well said!

[@jaredrule1431]

💯 agree! Well said.

[@martinrodger9565]

Buys tyre machine; instantly invites all mates to use it. Top class. That’s why so many are helping. What goes around comes around etc. 👌

[@helplmchoking]

That's what we love to see! It's what mates are for, we've all spent way too many hours in a mate's garage fixing his nugget that "just needed a couple things done" or boring post holes for a new retaining wall all weekend. No lie, this kind of positive vibe is a big part of why I love this channel so much

[@theskidfactory]

You need some tyres changed bro?

[@BIGPOG]

I need all my tyres changed 😂 to much traction loss lol 😅

[@JamesTK]

For some reason I kept hearing "Time machine" and him offering to change a time for his mates XD

[@lowguidoschopshop]

Nice silent compressor inder the stairs there. Those things are a game changer.

Needs Al to do a cameo inspection

Thanks woody for keeping the skid factory dream alive!

[@BrownDog-73]

Woodrigos!!! You need to give a shout out to your Mrs. Looks like she’s doing plenty behind the scenes.

[@theskidfactory]

Oh mate she’s been a lifesaver!!

[@chrisparish9145]

Mate, we're all here for this content!

[@fatasdat]

Do yourself a favor and weld up a steel frame and bar work for the big window at the front. Do it to the door also. A couple of removable bollards wouldn't go astray either!! Don't ask Me how I know.

[@e.scottdaugherty8291]

Me either, but check door swings, & edges while your at it.

Please do a tool box tour when you're done! Not enough Aussies do that type of videos and I loved the first one. Engineered to slide did a great one but the rest is all US stuff.

[@MrGarycharters]

Have you checked out Hackshop Garage? Aussie guys. They have a few toolbox run throughs

[@ashmusgrove9110]

@@MrGarycharters sorry yep I did forget about them they have a couple of good ones actually. The MCM boys have their original one and their individual ones too which are good.

Home built by Jeff did one too :)

[@krazykarl4542]

Hey mate, just a quick one. Put your router and eufy home base on a small ups. So if for some reason power is cut, cameras are still active. Best thing I ever did 🤙🏼

Keep posting stuff like this Woody, seeing the dream buildout is awesome! Can’t wait to see what you create

[@josepharthur2338]

I would love Al to do an appraisal of the shed like how he does a history rundown of a new project. Also seeing the ksev and a front mount was sick

[@murry001]

One suggestion, get a label maker and put lots of labels on your tool chests. It makes it SO much easier to find stuff

[@crezychameau]

Ooooh that's a great idea ! My dad know where all his stuff is in the garage but when I have to grab something i wander aimlessly opening box after box for ages... Might start labeling stuff behind his back to see if he realises :D

[@justinrobertson5493]

You mean you don't know where everything is but you still open the wrong drawers? That's how I've always done it.

[@murry001]

@@crezychameau Just makes it that tiny bit easier is all haha

[@TC-yx2ss]

Yep all mine are labelled even though I know exactly where everything is.Wife or kids come in "Where's the screwdrivers?""In the drawer that says screwdrivers" etc.😅

[@mathewwitty5858]

Killer Woody. Very happy to see you kick on.

[@tirabbi1]

Hey Woody, the new Shed looking good fella. Looking forward to seeing future projects emerge from here. In regards to you’re sound quality/echo issues, if you build a timber frame the same size as any of your supplier/sponsor banners you’re going to hang on the walls, then fill the frame with insulation then cover it with the banner. It works a treat. Don’t seal the insulation up just leave it open, it then helps baffle the echoes etc. Shout out if you need any more assistance. 🤙🏼

[@manfredschmalbach9023]

Holy moly just a couple weeks out of watching TSF for a plethora of different reasons and coming back I find Woody all grown up into Mr Wood with his own workshop ..... Congrats Mr Wood, Sir! 😄😂 Thanks for sharing. And regards to the Turbo Yoda by time.

[@Techbitznpcs]

good to see the dream to expand has come to fruitition, great to see mates chipping in doing the aussie thing in lending a hand. also great to see sponsors getting into it and helping out too, all good things take time this would have come sometime in the future. we also need to have Al do guest appearences and not dissappear out of sight.

[@mattn6368]

You got more tools and equipment in a month than I was able to afford for my own shop in a year 😭 Those sponsorships really are life changing. Delighted to see you doing well Woody, and really excited to see what projects you get up to in this amazing new place! As someone who does a fair bit of media blasting, I'd advise you to get a good cyclone dust separator and shop vac to extract dust and dirt from the cabinet. Also be prepared for the blasting media to get everywhere, and I mean everywhere. I mostly blast with crushed glass, and even with my cabinet in the "dirty corner" of my workshop, I struggle to keep the glass from making it to parts of the place that I try to keep spotless.

[@ants3503]

Good to see mate Mad setup no doubt u will have customers lining up look forward to future vids👍

A tip for the forklift since you have long tines, measure a pallet length & paint a stripe around the tines. Helps stop snagging the pallet behind when unloading off a truck.

[@jaredrule1431]

What a great start to the Woody Factory! I have to admit, I was a little unsure as to how the channel might go without Al. But you’re doing an amazing job! Loving the content so far and the new feel to the show.

[@mrb1864]

Woody's tyre factory, you going have queue of mates outside lol . Is an epic job setting up a shed from scratch, looking good, that 3rd lift just for storage likely be godsend . Don't look like you got much yard space so organised shed space going be a must. Fab, cleaning & painting could be tricky in keeping dust/sparks/spatter contained and off the projects . Your Bro doing great job on elecs, you have get him teach you the art of measuring lol . Keep at it Woody, you doing good and the rewards/karma for the graft will be coming ...

[@stykytte]

Little tip from personal experience about your wall of tool boxes. Put a couple of anchors in the concrete underneath them, bolt them to each other and to the anchors in multiple places in as hard to access a manner as possible. We put in an 1 anchor per box plus 1. We had 9 boxes and 10 anchors, so there was one at each end and where each one met. Had to do this after someone used a flatbed with a crane to make a hole just a big enough to drag an enitre tool box out before a business nearby noticed and called the cops and they got blocked in at the estate entrance. Two years later someone tried doing almost the exact same thing, just chose a different place to break in, got as far as trying to dismantle the one box, gave up and just stole some air tools.

[@markroberts4993]

Woody, three phase means 3 x 30A, Single phase is 1 x 30A. You can fit 3 x 10A GPOs on a single phase - if you have just single phase, 1 x 10A circuit has to go to lighting. Then you have 1 x 10A circuit for a lift and 1 x 10A circuit for a coffee machine :) Save up and pay for the three phase - then you can run a spa on 15A and a welder on 15A.

For safety reasons I suppose ?

[@Ty-ts3ku]

@@Alex-tu9bh nah it was done to align Australia with other countries, especially the uk and Europe. Having our voltage nominally 230v means appliances can be made for multiple markets across the world, and they are cheaper for us. There is still a big tolerance of plus 10% and minus 6% around the nominal of 230V.
