I really appreciate that you make the most of your space and you face the same issues most of us have. You don't have the sponsored, air conditioned, sound proofed, festool filled workshop... but you're an average down to earth maker. Seriously a true inspiration to the everyday diy'er! Thank you so much! You've gained a subscriber and my deepest respect!

I love this shop, mine is a one car garage too so I love seen for other’s solutions! I will say it should be a drinking game for home many times wood workers have to justify their choices because you know their are so many judge mental wood workers in the comments trying to tell you their way. Let’s just support the creators!!

Great ideas. Messy shops are not safe shops. The chop-saw back-up is ideal. Nothing throws chips and dust like a chop-saw. Again, nice shop and enjoy your woodworking projects.

I saw this mitre station video and liked the simplicity of not having the side guides that would take up the counter top space. Then, I watched a gentleman from England explain why you might NOT want those side wings/guides. If an eight foot long piece of stock were even slightly warped, the side guide would keep it from being flush on the saw table where it must be in order to get a proper cut. Not having those side guides permits the longer, possibly slightly curved piece to be cut using the in-top stop as you’ve used here. I didn’t want to lose the counter top functionality and your system solves that. Even with removable wings, your system is more functional and equally as accurate. Great job. I also thought a tape track could be routed out just in front of the track and inset. As you have it, it’s very useful.

Thanks for the tour. I've just moved into my new house and have a 14'x32.5' shop that I'm trying to figure out how to get my mind around where everything will go. I did have it wired for 220 and my 1st purchase was a Sawstop PCS 36' 3 hp saw. I got it all set up, however I'm waiting on a dust collection system to cut my 1st board. I found your channel from the outfeed table you built, and love the fact that you built it on a saw horse and plywood stand. One of the 1st builds in my shop (this week while I'm off from work) is an outfeed/work bench and your build is exactly what I was thinking of. I'll be buying your plans and you've got a new subscriber.

Great tour Marie i have always liked your workshop from day one, and i have enjoyed all the added on builds, the alterations and the new tools that you have bought for your shop over the years. As for the cold, i have a friend who lives in Ontario and he mentions how cold his shop can be, and he has a wood stove that he lights about an hour before he goes into his shop, and before he does his videos for KZfaq so i can imagine the cold that you get there very well. Stay Safe, Barry (ENG)

I really wish you'd stop saying your shop is so small. I am only 6min in and already 10 times! It really isn't so small and many many many of wood workers work in a smaller shop than yours. I just finished my build and it is 8X14 w/8' ceilings and upper storage. I would love to have a shop as big as yours. I remembered seeing a video of yours a couple months ago and I liked not only your shop but, you as well and took me 2 nights to finally find your channel. Subscribed.

My shop is currently a 12’ x 16’ room off of my garage. This video has really given me some great concepts that I can incorporate for myself & inspired me to be better organized and utilize all the space available. I’m in FL & my saving grace is that my shop space is air conditioned. I have designed & built a simple system to slide a door closed & clamp it into place (gasketed) over the A/C return whenever I’m making dust to reduce the burden on my A/C filters.

Great video and one little tip even tho im sure you might have had someone else suggest it already but being in south shore of mtl, i also have cold winter :P my solution to for glue and finish is a cabinet with a heat lamp hooked up to a thermostat that turn the lamp on when it reach 10celcius and stop when its at 15 celcius, keeping the cabinet at a good temp during the night when i lower the heat until the morning

@martyfarrell9459 3 жыл бұрын

You have no idea how similar my shop is set up to yours! Mine is 20' x 30' and still not enough room! Most of my tools are on wheels, I have pretty much the exact same mitre saw set up (didn't want to run the hose either!). The one advantage I have is assembly and outfeed setup. 2-4 x 8 melamine tables on wheels around my SawStop for outfeed, crosscuts and assembly plus 2- 30 inch x 8 foot tables on wheels for moving, planing and jointing material as well as assembly. I'm full time custom cabinetry and woodworking so I need a lot of assembly space. Kudos on your ingenuity, your space is more efficient than mine is, although I do easily fill 2 garbage cans in a day sometimes so having them roam free in the shop is much more efficient for me. Great vid and great use of space!

I'm really glad KZfaq recommended this video to me. You used all the tricks for working in a small space, and it's really inspiring for another person that works in a one car garage. My dust management at the moment is to occasionally open the big door and blast everything with a leaf blower. It's chaos!

Hey thanks, some really cool stuff here. So, I'm in CO and had to consider paints glues and finishes freezing as well. What I did (and this is cheap!) was take a small heatmat for plant starts and install it in a tightly sealing cabinet, so that none of my shit freezes. Thermostats can be used here to good effect, so that it doesn't get too hot or run unnecessarily. Anyway, I'm gonna finish watching now. Thanks!

But I need to use the space better. I love how organized and well thought out your shop is. The miter station is great. I have a similar set up but just the frame. Love how you did yours.

That's a lovely workshop! You've given me some good ideas, so thank you for sharing. I have the back of a 1½ car garage (the half bit) that's a work in (very slow) progress. So my table saw is a Bosch job site model that I carry out to the carport. :-) It works enough for me in the Canberra (Australia) climate where "cold" just means "work harder" as opposed to dangerous in Canada. Hot, however means "work earlier" until it means "stop work, it'll wait."

If you think a 1 car garage is a small shop. Try a 7x7 patio with an old octagon dining table for a workbench and tool stand. Cart out each tool as needed and set it up on the table. Natural dust evacuation (outdoors). No heat in winter and no A/C in summer.
