Workshop 004 Trimming the Doors

This'll not only make the doors look good and tidy up the gaps, but the trim preforms a function as well. As a doorstop, an aid to keeping the weather out, and will also push the doors back a little into the frame of the truck. The further the doors tuck back, the less the dirt and junk from the trees should accumulate and the rain might just not be so inclined to enter the gap at the top. Recessing the doors will hide any slight warping as well, just in case the braces can't keep back any desires of the frames to twist. Though in that regard, I am happy about the use of cement board and Starboard. Both of those should not have the same propensity to get bent like wood does. Who knows? Time I suppose will tell how well this project holds up.

Shop-related and modification videos are my favorite of yours. I want to see everything you do to the trailer, small or large. I really enjoy all of your modifications you've done over the years to boats, trucks, bike, camper, property, and more. It gives me inspiration and also I learn new/better ways to do things.

[@jeffdurling100]

Marty, I have been watching you a few years now. Always find your videos interesting. When you build anything I usually learn something as well. Great work.

[@MrStukid]

From the little red kayak to having your business, traveling the great loop, now starting the next chapter! You are my favorite KZbinr! Keep it up.

[@mikemcleod3268]

I'm definitely loving the new series! It's absolutely awesome seeing you do what you do best. Keep on keepin' on!

[@andrewcrocher5932]

Marty I have been watching your videos for years you are very skilled in many areas … thanks for sharing all that you do!!

[@jasondillard254]

Keeping it mellow but entertaining and informative. Real world stuff we can all appreciate and learn from. Thank you, Marty... Another relaxing video.

[@MajorUpgrade]

Looking good Marty! Keep 'em coming!

[@michaeldigiulio5602]

Your building skills and ingenuity are quite impressive, Marty! 👏 😎 I’ve been watching your videos for years, and you always seem to inspire me to look for solutions to projects in a different perspective, and you make “brain storming/ problem solving” with projects seem easy. Here’s to good quality craftsmanship, 🛠️ ingenuity, getting it done, tight lines 🎣 and cold refreshing beverages! 🍻 😊

[@trampster7306]

Loving these videos Marty. Frequent updates, and not too long for each one either. Keep 'em coming, and stay safe & well. 👍👍

[@tiangrosso]

Love this new series!

[@jkflorida]

You sir are a wizard with the StarBoard!

[@FollowTheJohn]

My mantra has always been "I couldn't see shit but I kept going".

[@CastIronRestore]

Cool videos, looking forward to seeing the martified trailer at work!

[@space.cowboy69]

Marty, you are a real genuine guy. I wish everyone was more like you. I feel like if someone handed you ten million dollars, (-and you were forced to take it, because i know you wouldn’t!) I feel like you would just be doing what you are doing right now. Much love as always, I have been watching this channel since the red sit-in kayak and I will never stop so long as you keep posting.

[@brandonflanagan5353]

Love your videos, Marty. I can't wait to see what you make with your awesome and creative ideas!

[@AliexFolgueira]

Yayyy old school marty!!! Let's goo!

[@Hawk_eye]

Love it! You got me into Kayak hacking, and I have never stopped watching you.

[@fernandosartori844]

Keep on going Marty, I am starting my garage project and although it is a house garage, I will learn something from you, that is for sure.

[@cheza7061]

"I have marty fied it" that is awesome and I will always use that saying now.😎🎣🐟

[@LouisianaTimberHusky]

I'm enjoying the videos and plan on watching the build as long as the videos keep coming.

[@BigAlonBass]

Keep doing this please, Marty. When you did the "Boat Playlist", along with other stuff that was happening, it was really interesting. Two different 'streams' keeps everyone hanging on for more.

[@KnifeCrazzzzy]

Man who knew doors could be so hard! I love the idea of a portable shop! 🤙🏻

[@johnstephens1965]

I like it Marty. Keep it up. Thanks for your time and Sharing.

[@BobAquatic]

I've been really enjoying this series

[@johnbuschman8815]

Differently enjoy these kind of video s, love your construction projects. Thanks John.

[@dannynichols8778]

I enjoy all of your videos over a long time keep up the good videos wish I was down there has to be better than Washington state

[@cameroneagle4370]

It's looking good Marty 👍 You're videos always inspire me to build something , that trailer looks like it was a good find, heavy duty and solid

[@garrycomeno2731]

If something can be figured out. You'll figure it out. Ya I like the video. Keep em coming. I would like to see you put a bolt and lock nut in each hinge.

[@ronskayakingandfishing414]

I enjoy your DIY videos almost more than your fishing videos. I subscribed to you YEARS ago (2015?) when you were making modifications to that little red kayak of yours.

[@ddro3443]

You’ve made so much cool custom Zoffinger stuff over the years for business and home- ( ice machine- my fave) hopefully you can use some of it in this new project - great new playlist - thanks Marty

[@thomaslarussa6814]

Marty, this is awesome content. I'm really enjoying this series!

[@tigerace351]

Love the sharing of the DIY projects. Definitely keep ‘em coming. One comment. I’ve been watching your videos since you were still employed and “fishin in the kitchen” in the bay. I’m just about the same age and have done just about as much kayak diy, modified this and built that. All that stuff. You reach a point when 1/8 and a 1/16 is just gonna make you spend more time on something that’s gonna get weathered anyways. I’ve spent countless hours fine tuning kayak mods only to have them weathered from the Florida heat and sun. Absolutely shoot for perfect, but sometimes good enough is good enough. Makes things done quicker to go back to fishing. My 2 cents.

[@garyvanvuuren199]

I'm following your trailer workshop "Marti-fication" with great anticipation!

[@parttimecamper5561]

Love the videos. Can't wait to see the finished product!

[@TokyoJim618]

Thanks for the ride Marty!

[@kimkingsbury150]

Yes like this video and videos like them.Good to see you back

[@andrewhardisky]

Keep rocking the videos. You'll have those people with comments good and bad. Your inspiration is awesome. Just keep kayak inspired videos in the schedule, please. Miss the FL sun. Chicago does not fit my lifestyle nor clothes 😅

[@robertjordan5841]

Marti-fied! Gonna be fun to watch.

[@phillipdowse4296]

Hey there Marty, Phil here. I watch your stuff from my place a couple of minutes from the Bribie Island Passage in S.E. Queensland Australia. Love your work and sorry your Loop experience didn’t work out. I was supposed to be living retired life on a converted trawler. That didn’t work either. Oh well. Keep up the good work. Cheers.

[@jerryf581]

Marty-fied....I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@stephen81ms]

Love you Marty, wish you the best❤

[@treeoneseven]

Quality work, brother! 👏

[@anthonyhenderson8623]

good to see you back to doing what you are good at love it tony australia

[@oOAstoNisheD]

Enjoy all your Videos the building is always a great watch for me :D

[@bradsexton7295]

I enjoy your build videos regardless of the content.

[@josephbrinkley7572]

i love doing stuff like that. Like your videos. Florida Joe

[@paulp1257]

The project is looking good, Marty! 18:22

[@poland153]

heck yeah marty keep it rolling, like you said there are more episodes in queue ;) but i want that dopamine nooooow

[@snomofilms]

This has been awesome so far

[@fisherman6150]

Marty, Wear you cap proudly. My type of series. Looking forward to the coming videos. Expect you'll eventually replace straps with butt hinges for security.

[@jm92gt03gt]

I love the workshop stuff more than the fishing.

[@BrianBHatteras43c]

Marty, its great to see your routine project updates! I always enjoy your method of creation and solving problems.

[@bluegills]

Marty will soon be building a hull for the workshop and put it on the water! 🐟

[@weekender38]

Looking good, ROLL ON!!

[@scottblesi2469]

Keep it going and we will watch .

[@avgrphx]

Another great update!

[@kencooper2059]

Nice work, Marty. And yes, I really enjoy this kind of content from you. I should have put some of my projects on youtube, might have made some money from it.

[@paulvsalas]

The star board dose look good. Nice job.

[@Neoviper240]

Keep on building!!!

[@Carl_Black]

Pumping the videos out. Thanks.

[@stevefairchild3337]

I agree way cool, I want more.

[@FrankLadd]

Nice shop!

[@brendinredmond8569]

Definitely interested!

[@gpadge4937]

Every failure is a new lesson!

[@jeanclaudeboutique6526]

Put a few fan on the roof style camper fan... nice job!

[@tonysimmons217]

Love it!

[@flipinfloridafishing2189]

Love it keep doing it

[@davesauerzopf6980]

Nice job.

[@ncoutdooradventures6148]

Of course I like it,,, it's Martyfied! I still think having the door hinge on the top, so you could raise it from the bottom, would have given you protection from the sun and rain!

[@classicsrule8651]

thank you. please keep building. would love to see you catch a fish with the tampa bay lure we sent you.

[@joerockme7485]

👍😎

[@victoriaheatherly5877]

You are so cool 😎!

[@Martinus45A]

Like your way of ‘simple’ living and attitude. You know what I mean. And always enjoy your videos. Being from Europe I’m always amazed the US is not using the metric system. Hey but it works😁. Wonder how the daylight inside will be after you repaired any leaks in the roof; assuming you will also clean the roof a little. Take care.

[@sharonhalverson8875]

😊 keep doing it

[@idonotcareforbaboons]

It's cool.

[@SunnyIlha]

Cool. Like.

[@TheEuphoricism]

Marty a drummer? That little rudiment on the wall is such an ADHD drummer thing :P

[@GRIZMAN1109]

👌👍😀

[@randymacsgarage]

yup i like the build is the heat in the summer gonna be tolerable? I understand the clear visible roof but some insulation maybe a drop ceiling commercial type , with a few clear panels ?🤔

[@keithwolf2317]

👍

[@dcm4692]

Perfect is the enemy of good

[@canajian]

🖐😎👍

[@dizm100]

Just use some 1x4 as backing for the trim, it will give the trim more to bite as well

[@brucemarkey7177]

Hi Marty, I'm digging the workshop build. My request would be for you on your page to re/move the "Marty's picks" and "Houseboat Updates". Neither has been updated (or probably will be updated) and they just push the new content down lower. Keep up the good work!

[@thomasgarten8721]

Hey Marty, I'm thanking that, you may need to put a nother axel under that trailer after you get it loaded with all your tools and accessories. What do u thank? Your friend Tom.

[@adamcoyne9574]

I like this stuff better than fishing.

[@martygrove3986]

It may be a new series but the compelling element is the same - your approach to problem solving and design build

[@tjvhigh09]

Consider French cleats instead of pegboard!

[@trampster7306]

I thought that, but if Marty has to tow the trailer to another location, they might bounce off.

[@bubbaburgess2823]

Dude that was alot of glue did it not expand off?

[@edmobrad765]

Maybe get some sound deadening stuff put behind your peg board ?idk.its a thought.

[@OlTommyBoy]

Maybe you could put up gridwall inside rather than pegboard...unless you are going for that 1974 look to the walls...

[@mfhairstream6812]

starboard is not cheap

[@tomlockwood6599]

I'm not sure I understand the thinking, using cement backer board for door skins. I foresee trouble with cracking after flexing in the wind when they're bungeed open. I could be wrong but.....

[@brandenburns1747]

Marty I gotta know. Where do you get that wonderful starboard? I live in upstate New York and can't find the stuff anywhere. I'd really like to use it to replace the wood on some of my aluminum boat. I'd really appreciate the info. Thank ya sir!

[@biggadigittydee7607]

I blame the drill...

[@gregm8941]

Are you going to make it look like a tiki hut?. You sure do live in noisy woods.

[@Bruce-ks7md]

Keep on truckin Marty It's COOL! Ever going to finish the loop?

[@topherzunited8584]

Hey Marty looks like the project is coming along great! Quick suggestion, you can buy henges for the doors that are latched on the inside of the trailer. All someone has to do is come along and unscrew the henges on the outside of your doors and boom they are in your trailer with all of your tools. (By the size of that trailer it looks like you’re going to have thousands of dollars worth of tools and equipment in there)People will do just about anything to get inside of things that are not theirs!! I worked for a moving company for 5 years and we had to make sure the trailer was secure so no one could get in the trailer. I’ve heard all kinds of stories of people breaking into trailers of all sizes. Good luck!!

[@anacrespo9726]
