How long before he forgets he's 3ft off the ground when walking out the door ?

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection kzfaq.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

If he doesnt upload again I think we can just assume Carbon dioxide poisoning

Great little helpers! Enjoy them as much as you can. Twenty years from now you'll look back and appreciate all this time with them the more.

Isn't going to get a little warm and stuffy in there?

i feel like the thumbs down are from people who can't do a pull-up or wouldn't be able to get in there without stairs. thanks for the videos. i am glad i found your channel.

CONGRATS on 100.000 subscribers! Been here since marble mountain and have been hooked ever since. Than you for always providing entertaining, clean, and creative content. Keep it up

You are an amazing DIY-er...I'm just amazed every time!

Love it. I think too many people forget they can go UP in their workshops. Planning something similar for mine next year.

Everyone is complaining about the lack of air flow, but nothing about cutting mdf without a respirator

Loves unique spaces like this. Great job!

Congrats Ben on getting your well earned silver play button for 100,000 subs. BTW I have been subbed since 4,700 subs and your still my favourite youtuber

Awesome idea and awesome job!!!! Well done!!

Love the idea of using the space underneath for storage. Nicely done.

I like this idea. I have 11' ceilings in my garage and storage shelve up high. I've considered doing this on the floor but an elevated room like this could solve my plywood storage problem. Food for thought. Thanks.

As a person who struggles to work without peace and quite: I love this idea!

I cant stress this enough, wear breathing rpe when working with mdf. That stuff destroys your lungs!

Nice little studio build Ben! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP

Great job. Clever stuff.

Cool office and building video! The dogs make it super entertaining.

I love your floating studio, very inspiring!!!

Nice job Ben! Keep up the videos

Really cool use of the space!

Dude, this is WAY too cool. NICE job man.

Ingenious use of space. Very cool idea.

Bravo!! Amazing work!!!!

Cool project and i like your instructional style! Watch out for vapor! Breathing in a sealed system with no ventilation (is it hot there?) will cause vapor to build up pretty quickly on the interior surfaces. All your computers will add heat too. Maybe add a vent fan to the top using a baffled duct. Thats how the military vent their classified vaults that they work in.

Excellent work! I want to do something similar to this in my new garage. You've made this look "sorta" easy even thought I kn ow it was not. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the inspiration!!

Awesome build and great looking video! Inspiring! :)

Great way to utilize all of your space, also your little assistants looked like they were helpful and having a good time.

Great job, looks real nice.

Thanks for the video. Seems very straightforward and well made.

Love your idea of raising the room and save space.

You've earned a sub! Can't wait to see what you do in the future

Looks great Like the fore thought to use the space in multiple ways

Love the blue! Once again, you show your genius. And yes, I echo the question: air?

Solid work. This looks like an awesome setup. Two small and easy observations as an experienced audio engineer. You may want to put something soft on the walls to prevent your voice-overs from sounding hollow. You will also want to put in some kind of air exchange. Not that you'll die if you don't but you will likely notice that your productivity starts to dip as the oxygen level in your sealed room dips. You could of course just open the door when you aren't doing voice overs.

Sick job man! 👍🏼

I love your projects so far! Awesome workspace too, I hope to have a space like that some day

Super interesting. Good work man!

Wow, love your skills but I think I love your tools even more! Very entertaining too! Great work, Greg (Australia)

Great build!

U make an awesome video man. Good job on the office 👌🏻LOVE IT

Ben, You build like I do except you are really good at hiding your mistakes. Good work. I love the small office.

This is an amazing idea!!

It's a Nice project! Two things... I would make your storage carts 6 in shorter than planned and build a 2x6 framed sub-structure (with four legs), attached (ledger) with lag bolts and frame it so that it comes our perpendicular from the shop wall, to support your existing floor. You have a shear force issues, particularly at the back wall. Also, there are some good sources online with some simple ventilation solutions for small studios, etc.

Great use of space!! Appreciate the quality process instruction.

I liked the video ! These are my armchair opinions: Things i would do diferently: 1 - Location - Place the room on the back of the shop, were there is a ceiling and a wal that can be used. 2 - Door - I would have instaled a sliding door. 3 - Power Outlets - 1 electrical oulet is not going to be enough (personal experience), despite one's plans, more and more equipment will acumulate inside the room. Things to add: 1 - Chalkboard or Corkboard outside/inside for post-it's, blueprints, etc... 2 - Ventilation Fan/Duct. 3 - Soundproofing material inside because of echo.

Love the dogs "helping" lol... Mine does the same thing.

Well done!

Cool project. Enjoy following your progress. And get a ton of inspiration from your videos, thanks.

Great job!

Wowe best assistants! They got the job done for ya 👌

100k subs! Congrats.

Excellent idea

those doggies are adorable ! great construction video

depending on where your duct work is, you could probably have room for ventilation from the bottom or top. Of course, if you want it dead quiet, something that can be "toggled" on and off might be a better solution (like a modified window unit maybe?). Cool build, looks very sturdy. I learned a lot of neat tricks in the video as well, thanks!

Wow. You are one talented and entertaining guy

NICE... Well Done.

Some say oxygen is needed to breath ;-)

I love the swing handles to get in and out

Love the shop dogs!

Your dogs are a hoot! 🤗🤗🤗

I like it! It does look good. 😃👍

Very nice!

I'm guessing that you're gonna put some type of AC in there? It'll be a tad warm with your computer on.

Let’s be real this is a box that your dogs can’t get to in order to “relax” in peace lol

Well done fella!

Great voiceover and awesome video editing 👍🏻

You're going to get a million people pointing out everything you should have done, hindsight and backseat driver's are what we all do best. You did a good job with the whole building, not just for a young guy, you got real good skills already. Keep it up brother, and just remember that any trade is a lifelong study/endeavor. You'll keep on learning until you retire, if your any good. Also, when you do manual work, your body is your most important resource and you have to take good care of it. You only have one body so work safely as much as you possibly can and never compromise on that. We often take care of others much better than we do ourselves so treat yourself as if you were your own employee/child. I'm saying this because I'm old and made alot of mistakes that I hate to see in guys coming up in the business. Good luck, stay safe, and most of all, enjoy it while you can and in 30 years, pass on what you've learnt to the next generation of green-horn's coming up.

Workshop builds and dogs. I'm here for it.

This is awesome I’ve got limited space and a 4’ x 8’ CNC and I need a Office so I think I’m gonna use this and store the CNC underneath bring it out to set it up and push it back in whilst running. I think the only thing I do different due to the timber prices at the moment it’ll be using plasterboard

Great job

Great video! Thanks a lot for sharing all the process and "technical difficulties". Still don't know how you didn't have any of the dogs running over fresh paint, hahaha...

Interesting idea. Appears tightly built. But ... claustrophobic for me. Namaste Jay

guys, he doesn’t need air because he’s young and agile and does stunts for a living!

Suspended floor always helps with soundproofing. Ideally lay the floor on top of Rockwool. Also decoupling the inner skin of the wall from the outer skin.

Great video! I’m curious about heating, cooling, and ventilation though...

Excellent ninja style. - Great work

Love your work mate, really creative and clean lines. I wondered if you had thought about making the spot above the guest room more storage? Chers and keep up the good work.

Nice. I like the idea even I wouldnt fit in there at all :D Anyway. I always wonder how Americans can afford all that stuff. Having a crazy car, even a garage - most likeley with a house, doggs, all those tools etc.. Im working since im 18 and now with 30 I still life in a shared flat and barely can afford my metro ticket :D

Great idea....I am jealous as my shop is not large enough to include a dedicated office. One piece of advice....attach the support legs to the floor in some fashion. Moving heavy carts under there, or moving materials in/out with your truck may spell disaster if you hit a support. Maybe some blocks with cement anchors?

Your comment about hte more air tight the room is the more sound proof it is.. You are 100% correct. That is why they call acoustic sealant acoustic sealant it stops the movement of air, sound requires air movement :)

congrats on 100k subscribers

Looking at my other comments on this video, maybe I have been watching too many engineering disaster videos. I still can't shake the feeling that climbing in and out of that a few hundred times it going to loosen the joints. Add a few hundred Lbs. of load and something like that lumber rack dumping it's load on the side and I just see it pulling part way off the wall and twisting the base. I think the 4x4's should have gone all the way up into the rafters and be attached to the floor somehow and it needs more triangulation than just plywood screwed to the front and side. I am sure it looks solid enough to a non-engineer, but that just has my engineering and mechanical senses tingling. I am sure it works, but I am sure it is not as safe and solid as it looks.

you should put two 4x4's at the back also against the wall, I cant imagine those screws are rated to take the sheer load you are putting on them by themselves.

100K subscribers...Well done man...;-)

Soundproofing is primarily about decoupling surfaces. Sound is going to hit your sheathing, transfer through the studs and through the MDF. The caulking might help reduce some treble frequencies but bassier frequencies are going to travel through that without any problem.

way to carry that load!!! Good idea, a user that understands that screws are not structural, structure is!! or some nice beefy leg bolts

Congrats on 100K subs!

I like the storage system underneath. Make sure you don't work too long without letting some fresh air in. The CO2 levels will rise quickly. O2 levels will drop too. You will probably have to add ventilation to keep it cool and bring in fresh air. A large diameter fan running at a slow speed will be nearly silent. A baffle system will drop noise transmission from the outside.

Your inspectors are adorable!

Dude you’re the free hand straight line saw king. No track saw needed here.

One trick used in recording studios is to install rubber bushings between the floor foundation and the structure on top. You can also make the walls at an angle greater than 90 degrees, to prevent sound waves reflecting back and forth and building up resonate frequencies.

You do good work. And you can use the outside of the walls to hold all the stuff (jigs, tools, etc.) that a shop requires.

Good Lord. A ball of energy, he is.

Its so great

Interesting solution.

I love how your doggies are always being "helpful".

why was this recomennded to me? Well, not complaining, I liked it :)
