'We're Back!' | Vlog #1

[@laurabrazell3782]

I'm going to echo what everyone else has said and say, I would love to see more Repair shop behind the scene vlogs! To see just that little bit more of what goes on is really interesting! Even just knowing that you have to take soooo much of your own stuff is interesting to know! Great vlog as always! 😊

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks Laura, I will try to keep them up!

[@jeffb.2257]

I didn’t realize you move your own equipment from your own shop to The Repair Shop. Fun to see a tour of the museum grounds. This is fascinating! Keep it up. I learn so much.

[@ellabellajosie9106]

Yessss pleeeease!!!! My boyfriend and I are always saying we wish there was an “extras” to see about the repair shop because we know so much happens that isn’t in the show. Even if you can’t show us what you’re all specifically working on, it would be great to see things like you showed us in this video. That you bring all your own tools and machinery, the mini tour, and just a bit of all something personal - to see your personality on your own KZbin channel is really enjoyable. Thank you for making this blog video and I hope there will be more!

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks Ella, really appreciate your lovely comments and thank you so much for following along! I will keep filming as much as I can, glad your enjoying it, there definitely is a lot more that happens that isnt on telly!

[@more.power.]

Dominic the Repair shop and what it does signals to me that there are many good people out there repairing the dreams and treasures of so many.

[@tonystamp2708]

Yes. I love behind the scenes stuff. Please do more like this. In fact, I’ve loved all the workshop videos you’ve done as well.

[@frenziedstar]

I love this vlog! Have never been able to see the full surroundings of "The Repair Shop" barn before, or behind the scenes. Thanks for continuing to make the videos, love both vlogs and the continuing work on your projects.

[@allansinfield9634]

It’s good to see little vlogs like this, I would definitely like to see more. Keep well and safe 👍

[@timmargereson332]

Hiya Dom, awesome video 😉👍. Really enjoyed your journey down & the loading / unloading. I never gave thought to you having to take your whole setup - bet Julie & Amanda are pleased they don't have to bring much 🤣🤣. Hope you do more of these & get the other Repair Shop staff to join in. Hope you have a good one mate 👍 Regards Tim

[@DominicChineas]

haha youd be suprised! The bear ladies do come down with a fair amount of stuff!

[@davecharlesworth8176]

Again really interesting to see behind the camera so to speak.. the Repair shop if a wonderful programme and your blogs complement it nicely. Your Repair Shop sign still amazes me every time I see it. The programme has given me the kick up the jackie I needed and now wood carving, cycle repair and the odd bit of whittling figures. I retired from Surrey Police about 3 years ago and have not stopped since. I can fully recommend crafts to lower the stress levels. Thank you Dom for your inspiration and energy and good look with your new company, forming panels is an amazing skill. Please pass on my thanks and admiration to the other show members, TrueType skilled craft persons.

[@martinwinfield2935]

Thanks for the look around really interesting. It always amazes me that when you look at the finished programmes have the place is made to look very different and cosy. I lived in a village where they shot Peak Practice, how they made places look together and different was amazing TV magic. Thanks again for the tour.

[@stevelucas2117]

Dom, please, please, please keep vlogging both your personal shop projects and I especially enjoy The Repair Shop behind the scenes vlogs. Your vlogs give the viewers a different perspective from what's edited for TV. I really hope they keep making TRS shows for years to come and I ESPECIALLY hope you are in them too!! Thank you for showing us the other buildings on the museum grounds. Until this video I wondered if there were other buildings you guys used in addition to the two we see on TV. I also just found your channel today and am now a Subscriber! Cheers!

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks so much!!

[@bobt3374]

Yes seeing how you work at the repair shop is good we never miss an episode & have seen most multiple times. 👍🚙🏍

[@geronimoletsplays]

Respect hauling all that machinery from your workshop to the museum. I never imagined that the sandblaster was your own property for instance. I’m loving watching your videos generally, and absolutely hell yes we want to see your TRS vlogs and what you do in your lunch breaks! Please get others involved if they’re around. Admin of a big Facebook fan group TRS Friendly Fans (I’m Ian Edwards) I can assure you many people will lap up any content you want to make Dom. Keep up the good work mate!

[@DominicChineas]

Hi Ian thanks so much for the message, I will do my best to keep up filming! I am not on that facebook group, It would be amazing if your able to send this page to the group incase they haven't seen it? Thanks again, keep safe

[@timstoys1]

Hi Dom, greetings from New Zealand, only stubble across your KZbin channel and we love it! We really enjoy your in the workshop repair, restoration on the scooter. Keep those videos coming, kind regards Tim & Michelle

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks for the lovely comment! Glad you’ve found us!

[@jayne1544]

Loved the little black car you spotted on your drive down. Love the behind the scenes. Such a beautiful place.

[@bobmatthews4416]

Thanks Dom, loved the update. Hope you'll manage to do a few more as time allows. SO glad you're all back 'at it'. The Repair Shop has a massive Feel Good Factor we all so need just now. Keep Safe !

[@stephendriver5853]

Brilliant job Dom. Thanks for the videos, keeps my happy levels up. Loving the Repair Shop vlogs.

[@tannerlucas1566]

Being in the US I love seeing all of the happenings at the Repair Shop. Thanks for sharing Dom! I hope you get to do some lettering soon 🤙

[@allyriley1278]

Thanks Dom. I have been to the museum a few years back when the steam festival was on. Loved it and although a bit more disabled now and also now 80 I would love to come back.

[@ShukokaiStu]

Dom I'm sure I speak for many people here, its just great to see you again both here and at the repair shop. It's one of the best TV shows out there and I can never get enough of it. Absolutely love it. Be great to have lots more please!!!! 😁👍

[@roslynshappylife2022]

Hi 👋. Thank you for taking time to show us round. So much hard work going on behind the scenes, so looking forward to seeing what great work you do this series. Keep safe, and please keep filming it’s great to see 😊

[@simonfairweather4184]

Hello Dom, nice little look in to your other life. That little Ford Anglia you stopped off to look at, I know exactly where she is, poor thing has been sitting on the side of the road for more years than I care to remember. Cool Vlog mate keep em coming Cheers Simon

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks Simon, I drive past it almost every time I head to the repair shop, I wish he would sell it!

[@simonfairweather4184]

Dom, just to give you an idea how long she has been there, I bought a brand new J reg Yamaha TZR so that was 1991, she was sitting there then when I used to bimble about the countryside Cheers Simon

[@markanthonysmith413]

Great video Dom, it would be nice to see more of you and the other members of the repair shop, I think its a fantastic series and does at times bring tears to your eyes, hard work for you shifting your equipment, I assume for a season of shooting then take it back at the end of the season, we viewers don't realize what goes into the behind the scenes, Great stuff. All the best Mark

[@tanyahermann3431]

You should think about putting everything on locking wheels, so it is always movable. The tools/equipment could be handy for your everyday use to be on wheels. Hopefully The Repair Shop will be on for a long time also. Looking forward to getting more seasons to watch here in the States. Hey Netflix, please give us all the seasons!!!?

[@DominicChineas]

Most of the heavy machines are on wheels, the compressor and the table are a nightmare, I need to think of a better plan! I am sure there will be more on the way! I really dont know why they are taking so long!! sorry!

[@jtucker7209]

Love the "between the filming" video chats-lunch time walks etc. Looking forward to it and seeing you and possibly others"at rest" or "play"

[@kevinsimpson7114]

New to your channel Dom, but a big fan of The Repair Shop and your work. Great video and content, thank you.

[@lynnhaswell1690]

Would definitely love to see more as it could be quite some time before we're allowed to travel due to restrictions. We have ground anchors in our garage to make sure the now only one motorbike stays safe and secure, thought you might have left a little note on the windscreen of the car you were admiring on your way down to TRS. Keep up the good work Dom 👌😊

[@DominicChineas]

I used the anchors today, it went so well!

[@lynnhaswell1690]

@@DominicChineas - so glad things went well - you'll be much safer 👌😊

[@dingodoctor7373]

Hi Dom, At 2.40 you stopped to look at the old Ford 100E on the side of the road. That car has sat there for many more years that I can remember as my grandmother lived a few houses down the road.

[@gabrielfigueroa1730]

Big fan Dom, and it's cool to see what goes on in your day getting ready for the show.

[@geoffhughes2804]

Both shows are brilliant love the Vespa you don't in your garage on this introduction to this part of your life keep them coming motorbike scooters car jeeps making stuff brilliant

[@rosemarytomes8306]

What a brilliant vlog. Loved it. Thanks Dom. Yes, I would love to see more.

[@campybear]

Would very much love to see more. Well, as much as your NDA allows! This also answered many questions I had over what the show supplied for tools.

[@brendawilliams700]

Nice one Dom. Nice to see behind the scenes. Am hoping to pay the museum a visit later in the year.

[@DominicChineas]

I hope you make it down, its such a beautiful place

[@geoffmasters9204]

Really enjoyed this one Dom. Keep them coming, although for the life of me, I don't know how you find the time! Good to see a little bit of the beautiful Sussex countryside too. A part of the world I'm very familiar with and have been missing so much during lockdown. Loving the channel!

[@DominicChineas]

Thank you, appreciate the message, keep safe

[@kjones95472]

Yes! More! Do you know what you’ll need or do you just bring everything? Thanks for doing this, Dom!

[@DominicChineas]

I dont know, I just bring as much as I can, as I find out week on week I end up bringing more bits down every time!

[@fionabirkmire2874]

Yes please, really good to see some behind the scenes reality; this first one is an interesting eye opener! Thank you.

[@silverfoxman4987]

Dom, anything you want to video will be interesting just keep doing what you do ,great job👍😁

[@carrosene]

Love the Repair Shop! So it’s definitely fun seeing some behind the scenes bits. Excited to see some more.

[@normanbott]

Took the kids to the Weald and Downland Museum some years ago on the way home from holiday. It was a wonderful experience and I recommend it to anyone who can get there. Just discovered you were on KZbin this week - how did I not know before. Repair Shop is mandatory watching ! Like these vlogs too.

[@sydscrace9046]

Hi Dom, we have watched the Repair shop from day 1 and find it an amazing show with what you all do. However, having stumbled on your KZbin “blog” it’s the sort of thing that I enjoy. I like your easy understandable presentation style, which is open, honest and showing that life is not always perfect and that things don’t always go to plan! Keep up the good work and look forward to many more videos.

[@shaundawson5639]

hi Dom great video always want to see more I am a big fan of the repair shop

[@Chris-pv2ht]

Lovely to see you Dominic off normal tv. Love the repair shop I just find it very therapeutic, you guys are amazing. Been watching for several years on youtube vlogs of people repairing things from old just find it fascinating and helpful as well learnt so much and has given me confidence to do more things myself too. Look forward to your vlogs :)

[@blacksquirrel4008]

That little black Anglia really took me back. We had the Thames Van/Panel truck version, in beige. At 14 it was supposed to be mine one day. Supposed to be ...

[@snooziesuzi]

Absolutely loved your Vlog.... yes, yes please deffo more of that... so interesting to see what happens behind the scenes and the museum looks stunning ❤️

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks so much Suzi!

[@crazytabbies4246]

Yes more please Dom. It’s great seeing behind the scenes. You are doing a wonderful job 👍

[@netmarketingdirect6910]

Very informative, thanks for that insight Dom, love the program

[@hunkydorystory]

I'm going back over your videos as I've only recently discovered you had a channel. Great to see what you're tinkering with 😊 even if it doesn't seem like much it's lovely to see the up and downs of your adventures.. Keep it up 😊

[@urockitony2]

Very cool, Dom. Thanks for the inside tour!

[@labcat2322]

Loved the glimpses into my favorite programme. It looks such a beautiful place, cant wait to visit when we are free again 👍 you are such a talented bunch and would love to see more as well as your restoration projects.

[@paulcovacic1914]

Great video Dom. Yes it works well. Look forward to seeing more. Well done

[@nickmassey9104]

Brilliant insight Dom to your part in the working of the repair shop

[@lightwarriortarot8648]

Great video Dom! That's some flitting (as they say in Scotland) you have to do lugging all your tools down there. Lovely to see behind the scenes, please do keep filming when you can, but most of all enjoy your time at TRS, I'm sure it'll soon feel like you've never been away. All the best, Lynne

[@tramp921]

Brilliant vlog. The museum is lovely and peaceful. Haven't been for years but would love to go back one day. Keep on with the vlogging. You have a very easy natural way in front of the camera

[@fromthekipple]

One more vote for more of 'behind the scenes' and 'between the scenes' and generally anything and everything.

[@fromthekipple]

P.S. Also your own fan since your first ep, I'm pretty sure. Always fascinating to see how you repair so many various things.

[@nic4228]

Really enjoyed watching this vlog, thanks for filming it all, I would like to see more of these as well as your usual workshop videos.

[@chloeanderson1132]

Love behind the scenes at the repair shop stuff!

[@mzeo26]

Dom! This is amazing - deffo keep it up. I'm a Materials Engineer - this is just the way life is! Love it!

[@timpettingaleguitar]

Nice trip across the South Downs. Look forward to seeing the episodes in due course!

[@richardparkes4975]

Great insight into your various life’s. Love you work ethic and skills also find great inspiration from your work on the repair shop and your own workshop channel. As a member of the museum I can’t wait to stroll around the grounds again especially at this time of year some much going on. In answer to your question if you can please keep the videos coming. Cheers

[@alexanderralph2504]

Really enjoyed the vlog Dom! Just had my lunch in front of it, can now head out to my own workshop 👍🏻👍🏻 (once i've put the kettle on of course ;) looking forward to more videos and more repair shop episodes too! Thanks for sharing what you do

[@andygriffiths7261]

Just keep doing what you're doing, it works! For anyone that has never been to this museum, put it on your list of places to visit!

[@petebloomfield6418]

Love the vlog concept. Managed a trip to the museum on the first week reopening post lock down one. Saw you from a distance. Love the museum, love the repair shop, really enjoying your videos.

[@nickedney1272]

Great video Dom, yes I would love to see the odd behind the scenes shoot. Please be careful not to burn yourself out though, keep the home shows going.

[@roberthasler1698]

Love your channel fella, keep up the good work👍🏼👍🏼

[@bensalmen4992]

I really enjoyed this Dom. I've loved all your videos and Instagram posts to be fair but its ace to get a look at the repair shop from a different angle. I was really surprised you have to cart all your own stuff down there. I kind of assumed the production company provided it all. Keep em coming fella. Love seeing what you've got going on.

[@WinnieRoseReyes]

Yes please, more. Thank you for this. It almost feels like being there. Happiness! 👏🏽

[@davesullivan8213]

Loved it ,great to see you back ...... Loved the old ford 1000e Poplar/ prefect , first car i drove as a 15 yr old .

[@janesmith3568]

Loved vlog, definitely more please!

[@janeginever7480]

More please. It’s all so interesting.

[@CapsosUk]

Hi Dom, amazing to see how much you have to transport between site. I thought the BBC would buy you it. Please keep covering both sites and kit. Still would love a video on welding. Stay safe

[@simonevanschaik9224]

Thanks for showing some of the museum it’s on my to do list when i can visit my beloved 🇬🇧 again. Much ❤️from 🇳🇱

[@grahamwarren6578]

Yes, definitely more video's please. They will be really interesting to see. Once Covid is over the Museum is on my list of places to go. Will the 50s Ford be another project?

[@robtedds4887]

Great little insight into the Repair shop,please do more.

[@endoxr4]

What a lovely place to work in. Nice to see more of where it is than you see on tv. Enjoy the peace and tranquillity. I’d love to work somewhere like that. Wouldn’t be peaceful for long with me and a grinder etc though. Lol

[@francislee9]

Good seeing behind the scenes of Repair Shop, keep up good work

[@alifetomake]

Hello Dominic! I appreciate you vlogging, and anything about The Repair Shop is interesting too, so you can keep those videos coming!

[@DominicChineas]

will do! thanks

[@malcolmjames1866]

Yes. Go for it!

[@davidbickerstaffe441]

I’m a kindred spirit my man... I wake at 5am to work on my art of metal bashing and creating although in a much smaller space. Videos are excellent! Keep up the good work mucka!

[@christay21]

very good dom iv been watching the the repair shop for the last 2 years in new zealand keep up the good work i like Steve Fletcher as well

[@judithbarnett2966]

Of course we like seeing! Your videos are great.

[@markharrisllb]

You’d think they’d replicate all your tools for you, in fact you’d think they would have to for insurance purposes. A very interesting video, please do more like this.

[@terrynorton3182]

A man likes his own tools and feels happier with them. Anyway, if you’ve got all new tools, people will say you’ve got all the gear and no idea.

[@R.Craig.Collins]

I was late finding your KZbin channel, but I am enjoying all of the various feeds you have... thanks

[@DominicChineas]

Glad you’ve found us! Thank you

[@Cradley684]

Loved it Dom, wish the other Guy's would do one , Love the series Stay Safe Mate !!!.

[@56delux]

Yeah behind the scenes stuff is interesting 👍🏻

[@PeterSpringhall]

Great behind the scenes 👍🏻. On the main barn doors - why do the cross braces extend so far out on the double doors? Always bothers me 🤣

[@DominicChineas]

They are the lock! if you shut both doors at the same time they slot into recesses on the other door. Hope that makes sense.

[@PeterSpringhall]

@@DominicChineas ah! Like interlocking fingers. Thanks for taking time to respond Dom. 👍🏻

[@jonathanb3458]

Enjoyed that, always good to see behind the scenes, thank you.

[@cottagecharacters]

Hi Dominic I’m enjoying your vlogs your talent and energy I’m sure will inspire many people. Anyone watching the repair shop who has never visited the museum i can well recommend a visit. I have been a couple of times and always feel the need to make something when I get home after seeing the furniture on display.

[@johngriffiths4005]

love the show .I always say it must be great to work in such a beautiful place. I have to say though I dont think the flashy sign goe's with all the old charm of the place.

[@kingcal53]

Great insight to the world behind the show! Keep these coming!

[@jaxsjpg3225]

The behind the scenes stuff is great! Just having a little chat and looking at the grounds, the kind of content I really enjoy

[@davethedragonlee]

I liked your video. like to see more. All the very best

[@focus19551]

This is so GREAT! What fun to see the effort to get stuck in again 👍🏼

[@keithbrown339]

Very interesting. I like the projects the best. They inspire the most...ps Hydrovane compressors are the best i have worked with all of them.

[@simes205]

Singleton is stunning. Always worth going to and Goodwood is just down the road too.

[@luicunninghamritchie4806]

Great vlog, would always like to see more

[@mickwilton7750]

Really entertaining video’s keep them coming Dom stay safe

[@Wearealllegends09]

Loving the vlog, I’m up for whatever you wanna film 👍

[@petesmith2132]

Great video Dom! Looking forward to more of the same. ps I’ve got two Ford 100e’s myself!

[@johnhart1096]

Dom I saw you looking at the 100e anglia, is that going to be a new project, thats another vehicle I owned in my younger days, I'll keep watching to find out, keep up the good work mate...

[@davidham6102]

Dom the daily blog is great I love it keep up the great work mate and well done on a great channel
