[@watcherofwatchers]

Looking good. This is no criticism, just a preference, but I would have put down a cheap luxury vinyl plank floor just because I can't stand trying to keep bare plywood swept. It makes keeping it clean so much easier, and they're durable, especially when you don't care what it looks like. It also makes things with wheels roll so much more smoothly!

[@nicobogaard2315]

Totally agree, bare wood is becoming a pain in the b.. It will wear, start to splinter, gets black where you walk path is etc.

[@MrCPPG]

I agree. Tried bare plywood in an enclosed cargo trailer and after 6 months put down vynl flooring.

[@cathybrewer8958]

No telling how many more times things will change as needed to make the flow throughout the set up. Great looking shop.

[@XPFTP]

1/2 inch hole in floor run conduit up to panel or something mounted on end of the 4 by 8 table. then if need to move it. you only have a 1/2 hole to fill with a bung n shave it off.

[@trevorpalmer1891]

Nice Shop Sam!

[@cherifowler137]

Beautiful shop! Way to go!!

[@craftingwithjean5599]

Thunder laser or Aeon. Nice shop, well thought out.

[@19Photographer76]

Great shop Sam ~ many tools you need for the build but many you'll probably rarely use again (speaking from experience). How will you cool your shop in the summer, large fans?

[@Samcraftcom]

I hope to install a mini split into the workshop. If I cannot get to it this year, then I'll put a window AC unit in the new workshop for this season.

[@cubansli3099]

Man I remember when you moved, if I am correct. Awesome Sir

[@guybowers9094]

The shop turned out great. How do you like the Shapeoko CNC I've been considering getting that brand

[@steveferguson1232]

Thunder or Monport co2 laser

[@robingreene8167]

Sam great job.

[@TheWoodHaven]

Is the covered item a 3D printer? If not, any future plans for one? I have watched a few videos of shops that build/sell 3D printed accessories for like Milwaukee Packout or Craftsman VersaStak systems. Edit: Or Husky Build Out (which is what I have) hint.

[@Samcraftcom]

It's not, but I wouldn't mind getting a good one! I've come across a few different scenarios and ideas where one would be so handy!

[@sevysingh472]

Beer chiller!

[@jakerivera4913]

Love your workshop. Your new secret machine is a laser/engraver?

[@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797]

Under the sheet…? Thunder C02 Laser….

[@RogueCow]

Damn, i feel like i just watch you build and move into your old shop/shed. Congrats on moving up man!

[@debrasrnek4223]

IDEA! Cut the extra lazer table in half. One for each of the boys to learn the craft.

[@VinnysProjects]

No matter how big you build your shop, it's never quite big enough. Mine is 22x24x2 floors. Still not big enough!

[@harlincolkmire933]

You do such great work. Your shop is awesome. Hope you have plenty of work. God bless.

[@prpman99]

A reel type extension cord from the ceiling over the work table would be handy. Good luck in the new shop.

[@leattaslone1800]

Wow! The shop looks great! I love it! I know you're going to enjoy it. Great job Sam!

[@walonguy111]

Sam cool shop, you did a fantastic job, be proud of yourself. Good luck

[@Fancylooks]

A dream that finally came true, congratulations!

[@TheElectronMan]

Enjoy the space while you can I built a 30x30 shop like you started out all organized built benches shelves etc. and now 5 years later there is no space and it's an unorganized mess but I still love it LOL...

[@CountryMouseLaser]

Execellent work. Been following from day 1 of this project. How long did it take in total? All the best in your new super shop.

[@Samcraftcom]

I broke ground on the workshop build on Sep. 27th 2023 and filmed my final tour video on Dec. 9th 2023. :)

[@dwburger]

Under the sheet? A Thunder Bolt! Given that my hobby workshop is the 5-foot area down the side of my extra-wide garage and half a benchtop along the back wall of my garage, I'm envious of your new space. It is what it is and I probably wouldn't know what to do with all the space you've created anyway. It's been fun watching it all come together. Congrats!

[@jesusislord2457]

🎉 YAY YOU!!! 🎉 All the best for your business! ✌️💖🙏🤜

[@themadleaf]

I've enjoyed your new workshop series. One year ago, I built a shop/garage set up. 26 X 29. Great job! I'm looking forward to seeing you use it.

[@barbaraboomer8976]

SAM LOVE YOUR WORKSHOP YOUR SO CLEVER IN ALL YOU DO

[@LSEngraving]

Congratulations on the new shop!

[@brucelee3388]

The sheet is covering a 'comfy chair' and probably a single bed for when Mrs. Sam is upset with you (or maybe you are pulling an 'all nighter' for a rush order). 😜

[@B.Cote39]

Man!!!! Your a beast !! Cant believe how much you’ve accomplished my man , real inspiration for me , thank you 🙏

[@CherLou1]

Wow! That is a great and well thought out workshop//office!! Beautiful!

[@gecko2345]

Sam, How about adding a cord reel in the ceiling? Maybe a hose reel hooked up to blow dust off of projects??

[@JimmyKoKo2]

I just unloaded a slightly used (8 hrs) Nova 51/100 into my garage yesterday. I’m new so any helpful hints are very much appreciated. I’ve watched hours of your videos. Interested in doing hats, tumblers and also like your video on engraving patches for canvas bags. I’m seeing alot of people on FB and KZbin claiming you have to buy the Hotronix press. Are you still happy with your VEVO and can you consistently center patch the Richardson 112 without creasing. Like I said. I’m just starting your expert and expert advice is very much welcomed. Why did you choose the black vevo instead of the different orange model?

[@ShyneflowLC]

I'm thinking an APLAZER, thunder or an epilog or something like that...but a bigger CO2

[@MWE-693]

Enjoyed the shop tour. Do you have or are you going to add an Energy Recovery Ventilation System (ERV) to your shop? I built my shop to net zero standards and used it to assure ongoing fresh air exchange. Since adding a laser with exterior inline exhaust, I am interested in what you and others have done to replace air voided by the inline fan. Thanks!

[@Hunterworks]

Ventilation: What are you doing for air coming in? How do you heat and cool with the fumes being pumped out?

[@Samcraftcom]

For now I've been cracking the door or window as the weather is beginning to be warmer. But I want to add an intake vent under the lasers as a fresh air intake in the near future.

[@denisewilson8367]

You need to let us know what you do want to make in your new workshop. I have some items that I would like made but I'm not sure if its something you would like to make and what type of materials you are capable of making them out of. So, maybe a video explaining this? Hey, when I move into a new space sometimes it can take up to a whole year to figure out what I want the space to look like, colors, textures and flooring & wall coverings. Thats just in my house. I know a workshop would take longer bcuz you have to work in the space to get the feel of it.

[@loissaedder2214]

If you decide you need more storage, why not get more of the metal shelving with castors instead of putting shelves on the wall. I'm imagining a dedicated, specially designed area for all your red tools. Can your spare table be used by your boys for their hobbies? Hello from Australia.

[@nathanwolf5547]

Never underestimate the importance of unused table space. You will soon find that empty table is really needed for laying out things, gluing up, unloading stock etc.

[@75keg75]

Thoughts about doing the casters that allow you to raise and lower l the tables as needed? I think Adam’s savage or April Wilkinson did a table with them. They are fairly neat to reconfigure layout without too much hassle.

[@thanemakes5377]

Can’t wait to see the “Thunderous” reveal of the new laser

[@JBSQUALITYDETAILING]

Sam, You need to use wall space to get more organized. Also, why didn’t you finish off the floor?

[@brianblather]

Have you thought about using french cleats instead of shelving? Adaptable to a variety of needs.

[@IcEMystPrivate]

Hello Sam, could you do a video about maintenance of the xtool laser F1 or the other xtool ones, but preferable the f1 . About dust collecting in the laser head etcc. As fute owner of this tool, it already makes me think about those questions.

[@TheClackShack]

Glad you got moved in...

[@avalonhomestead9077]

It’s a start. Work in it, understand how it plays in what you need. Modify and then get it zeroed in and go for efficiency. Too many people get too permitted and later regret it.

[@jshepard152]

I don't know what most of that stuff is, but it looks great, and you built the place yourself.

[@homezero]

I couldn't help but notice, the camera angles of this video did not capture the area that was to be the crossover to the old workshop. Has that been started or possibly completed? 🤔

[@fabsphotos]

Shop looks great. The only thing that doesn't look right is your floor. Why did you leave your floor unfinished?

[@Ted_E_Bear]

Wow

[@revtoyota]

Hey Sam just a heads up, for some reason none of the Amazon links are working. Also the shop looks amazing man.

[@bonniehollingsworth1996]

60 Watt Epilog CO2 Laser under that bedsheet!

[@jefferykeeper9034]

Hint for when you are going to use the table saw, build a deck big enough too set it up, that way you won't have to carry it up and down the stairs

[@brianblather]

Either Thunder or AEON got ahold of you for that larger Co2 under the sheet.

[@melissamcdaniel3542]

I love your new shop.VERY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mindi.m]

The shop looks really nice! My guess is that you got a 3D Printer!

[@Stevieboy7]

What extractor fan did you use for you setup?

[@Samcraftcom]

This one: amzn.to/49hr6u5 :)

[@laserworks1]

I think under the sheet is a Thunder Laser. Size? 24 or 35.

[@nathanwolf5547]

It’s a very cool space. You should really be proud of yourself.

[@bobamand6141]

Great series, I learned a ton! Thanks for sharing.

[@scottensley9964]

In the box is an unassembled 3D printer.

[@danielastone7924]

Congratulaciones 🎉❤😮😮😮🙌🙌🙌🌸🌸is amazing!!!

[@aussiegolddogcnc3d412]

Looking great mate. You’ve got plenty of room to grow. You’re going to be so happy in that workshop. Cheers. 😊

[@marktelin7259]

How do I contact you about a set of wooden spoon and spatula. ???😊

[@PhillipBridgesReviews]

Thunder Nova ?? Could be

[@AngelaSissySnyder]

I would be interested if you could make me like a 4’ “S” for my shop. Hope do I contact you for pricing and shipping? Or do you do that?

[@Samcraftcom]

Send me an email. :) [e-mail]

[@scubaguy5455]

Is there really that much money to be made with lasers?

[@steveferguson1232]

When can we see the bed sheet video. Lol call it the bed sheet video😂

[@Kline2000]

Like the layout Sam, looks great. I saw your Heat storm heater above the door. Are those infrared heating panels on the ceiling? I was thinking about putting a couple in my shop.

[@Samcraftcom]

Yes and yes. :) I have the HeatStorm Garage Heater above the door, then four infrared panel heaters on the ceiling. The ceiling panels came first, then the Garage Heater second. I filmed the Garage Heater video today and will have it up soon and am also working on finishing the video about the infrared panel heaters after having them and using them for about a month.

[@tinakoziol1690]

Fantastic! Very happy for you!

[@wayneashke1]

How long before you construct the 'tunnel' between the two workshops? Really looking forward to seeing that getting completed.

[@Samcraftcom]

As of today, 2/17/2024, it's 95% done. :) That will be shown in one build video from start to finish very soon!

[@GnatTheGnome]

I see this and think to myself... #workshopgoals

[@sherribeach4160]

What, exactly, is it that you do/ make?

[@ChristmasHGTV]

Sam, if you have a video on exactly where you sell or how you get customers please post the link. I still am curious what your business does for sales. Thx!

[@Samcraftcom]

Will do!

[@stlwoodworking]

I am really liking that shop brother. Hold on to those plans lol I made need them 😁 OH.... Wonder if that is a thunder Laser under there ........

[@joem924]

I feel like I can hear some Thunder...

[@plurmingo1]

So how do i special order something from you ? I’d like for you to do 2 laser/cnc projects.

[@Samcraftcom]

Send me an email at [e-mail]

[@Prevettspecialdesign]

Really nice shop, very well done sir !

[@Walsfeo]

I'd love to see what happens to the old shop as well. Also, do you think you'll benefit from drop-down power lines over the center bench, or will you run it under the floor?

[@Samcraftcom]

Whatever come from it, I'll be sure to show it. :)

[@SgtCude59]

Watch all your videos didn’t see you installed those squares things on the ceiling . What are they ???

[@Samcraftcom]

They are infrared heaters and yet to be discussed/shown in detail on the channel. I wanted to give myself a good bit of time with them before I gave my opinions on them. :)

[@theboredcreative]

I’ll throw a vote toward a Thunder.

[@PennysPorch]

Congratulations on your success! I think it’s a Thunder laser under the sheet.

[@Samcraftcom]

I think so too! :)

[@harrybeers2022]

Where is the entrance to your old shop?

[@davidburks5178]

Is the sheet covering a 3D printer?

[@owell179]

How do you make milkshakes with it

[@joeberry4179]

nothing but great here..............jb

[@DavidAnderson-se1or]

I like your desk chair. What kind is it? Love your shop and videos!

[@Samcraftcom]

It was some random flash sale from Walmart back in November last year.

[@David6ft6]

My guess is a CO2 Thunder

[@kurtkroh6637]

My guess is a Co2 gantry laser.

[@tobie2]

It looks amazing!!

[@davidserna7265]

I'd say it's a 3d printer😊

[@justinlaser]

Looking good!

[@Samcraftcom]

Thanks!

[@JTMWOODWORKS]

Its a Thunder Laser!!

[@smilertiler1]

Excellent, excellent results. Just needs a bed, a dart board and a bottle opener and you're all set. Would it be vulgar to ask how much it all cost? (Ball park)

[@Samcraftcom]

I think right at $22,000 for the full build.

[@smilertiler1]

@Samcraftcom Thanks for answering, I'm sure many wanted to ask. That seems a very reasonable.amount for the resulting build. I reckon I'd have to add a good £8k or £9k on that in the UK as material prices have gone up alot here, past couple of years. Watching you build it was great viewing, not least because of your easy style of presenting your vids. Wishing you every success in your new shop.

[@GAMINGITUPWITHJOHN]

its a grand piano under the sheet. woo hoo i win. nah just jk. lol looking great.

[@Samcraftcom]

Hahaha I love that guess!

[@markhulette6987]

Looks great! Jealous of your space!! Question: how do you like the Vevor hat press? Would you buy it again? Have enjoyed your channel for a long time and have been impressed with your drive and willingness to share!

[@Samcraftcom]

Thanks! This hat press is the only one I have ever used, so cannot compare it to others, but it has worked great for all my needs so far. I have some hat orders coming up that I'd like to do a video on and will show it in detail in that video for you. :)

[@markhulette6987]

@@Samcraftcom awesome- Thanks so much!! Looking forward to it!

[@brianmagnusson7498]

great job samcraft

[@magnusltd]

Nice Sam, very nice!
