One of the things i Love learning history, is how farmers made do with what they had. The contraptions they came up with to perform their duties is Amazing to behold. Similar to you. In watching your videos, you not only show what you build in the way of cars. You also include us to watch you MacGyver stuff together to make them functional for your purposes. Giving us a glimpse into how you adapt & reuse whats old, to make them new & use them to maintain your vehicles. Ty for taking us along as you move into your new shop
What ever content you put out is fine with me and I expect 99% of your subs... I'm just happy and grateful to see you in the new shop, happily working away. Of course I'll be glad when you get back to your builds,but I also know it's a process 😎👍
Brother, beautiful shop! One thing regarding the water table is If you cut aluminum with the plasma cutter make sure there is no air gap under the sheet. It can explode because you produce hydrogen. No bueno. I also grab an old speaker magnet and created a hook to fish out the peaces. When you maintenance and drain the water, the mag help you catch all the metal residue.
When I had my garage built I had an enclosed mezzanine similar to what you are doing. One of the smarter things I did was to have a double door access installed where I could load a pallet of heavy things and pass them through the doorway using my forklift. I was 50 years old when I did that and now that I'm in my 70's I am really glad I did that back then. Things get heavier with age!
You always seem to be in a good mood, but seeing you working in the new shop is a whole new level. This is like watching a new channel! Congratulations on the new shop 🎉🎉🎉
I used to be a removal man. I used to move people's homes every day of the week. I know how stressful it can be and it can just take a day to move but can take a few weeks to settle in. At least you are under one roof with everything and are doing great. It is great to see the shop coming along.
So much to do and still amazed with how big the shop is. Thanks for the video today. Watching a little Football and a little Brent, just another Sunday. Like, share and remember to tell your friends about Brent and Esther.
I’m so glad you are filming the shop videos . As a guy with a less than ideal shop and plans to upgrade . I thoroughly enjoy shop build/ organization setup videos . Great work as always Brent!
The "Phoenix" that rose from the ashes of your old shop is turning out to be your dream shop for sure! Not taking anything away from your old shop as no one wants that either! Keep on keeping on and looking forward to the new stuff that comes out of this one!
Your Shop looks GREAT Brent! No worries about the Content you always keep it interesting. We know that you just can’t walk into a New Shop and go Full Tilt right away! It’s Awesome to see you at this point! 😀
I’m always amazed at the tools you build. You are a man of many talents. Your new shop is going to be very effective when you get it finished. Can’t wait to see progress on the roadster again. 👍
It’s awesome that you’re getting the shop back in working order, it’s taken me a year and a half and I’m almost done now after having my roof collapse in my garage so I know how much work it is, great to be at the end of it and start working on cars more.
Brent, so glad you are finally in the new shop. So to you an Esther Merry Xmas, Happy New Year an may God Bless you both. Terry an Jeani Illinois, USA. 😊❤
The shop is looking great, makes me want a bigger shop. I can see your more relaxed, things will be back to normal soon. I like to fabricate stuff myself and enjoy your videos. Although my back gets sore looking at you move, as we grow older we appreciate when our back don’t hurt.
You say sorry for, if this content is boring, but I think most of us are just excited to see you get settled into your new shop. It's been a long time coming and I'm thrilled to see you using the new shop. The fun vehicle projects will not be far from being started again and are well worth the wait. Keep up the good content!
The ability to manufacture whatever you can dream up is a huge advantage, which is why a lot of us follow you. Your concept of your shop from beginning to end has been a "If this were my dream shop I'd...adventure." I'm living vicariously through you, so please don't mess it up.
A bit off topic maybe, but compared to the crap commercials that YT puts on (if annoyance is what they're trying to accomplish, they're succeeding), your music selection is a breath of fresh air. Thank you.
The new shop is amazing! You're going to move things around until you get it just right! I really like the set up you have , it is totally worth the time invested! It looks like you have more room over the old shop? Christmas came early, can't think of anybody more deserving than you and Esther! God bless you and your family, jim
Brent, for me, your appeal is that you are so humble. A real down to earth man. Confident in everything you do, but also confident enough to share and own your mistakes. (Which, by the way, most of us wouldn't catch). Loved seeing you rely on Esther to help with the wiring. Not sure if you have OSHA in Canada, but Esther is definitely certified now. You are so deserving of everything that is the new shop. Never got to see you set up the old one. The new adventures will mean more to me seeing it all come together. Merry Christmas to you, Esther and family.
It’s a job after a tragedy. You did amazing things in the small shop. And finally after all this. Got the new shop put together. It’s going to be great as you are. And keeping a positive attitude throughout all this had to be hard. But, got to have your shop where you lay your hands on the tools and things you need. A big job in itself. Yet you’re still positive and laughing, about what you do. Love y’all to death. And a forever fan of you and Esther. Merry Christmas 🎄
Never apologize Brent I'm excited to see everything take shape and seeing you happy in your new shop is awesome, I find it interesting watching you build different bits and pieces for your equipment and tools.
Looks great! I find the shop videos just as interesting because I always pick up something new I could do to make my shop more efficient. Thanks for plowing ahead and keeping us along the way!
All things considered, this was a pretty quick turnaround on the shop. It is looking great! I do have a couple of suggestions though. First: Between the 1st and second roll-up doors, you should put a mini-Starbucks, you know a little jump start on your day when you first come into the shop. Second: Maybe a small McDonald's over in the corner by the refrigerator for a little snack when you need one, when you are working late and haven't made it into the house for dinner, when you have the kids out to help you. Just a couple of thoughts. Looking good. We can talk about the playground later. 😃
I know that you must still be thinking about all the tools used in shaping stuff, like the different anvils and hand tool dollies that are used so many ways. I know it looks like a ton of space yet somehow its always never enough for everything we use in building stuff. Your just a work in progress, the memories will make themselves. New memories and good things yet to happen
That fork lift has to be the best buy ever ! You certainly got your money worth there. It's been a great help ! And I just can't be the only jealous guy here looking at your new shop ! Best of luck to you, your smile says it all !!!!
No apologies on your progression . Some don't see the work you have done. I know how hard you've been working. I'm taking a nap now just watching you. My wife got up and cleaned her pantry because of you. Brian and Debi Washington state
I just watched your shop fire video. What a difference in 7 months. Great job Brent. I know what setting a shop up is a pain. And I'm a body man for 30 plus years
Hello friend from Argentina, I told you that in your country taenias the possibility to recover but quick and let us don't make a mistake, now you have a shop much better than the one that taenias and I see that you recovered as I told you several tools of the old shop. I congratulate you friend and I am happy of seeing that these better than before, this serious Halfass Kustoms 2.0
Setting up a new shop is always a time-consuming affair. Trial-and-error is usually the best way to get it right. You can see countless examples of 'how to set up your shop' out there. But in the end it's gotta work for you and your way of doing things. I still mess around with my shop and I've been in that space over 20 years. Be safe and stay well.
Can’t believe how hard you work! The shop is looking grand. You are fortunate to have the big tools to help you move things around! Happy holidays to you and Esther.
Super collective production. It's great to also see and watch the behind the scenes going-on's. I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this go get it done guy. Many thanks.
I know for me organizing my little shop is always one of the hardest things to do. I can't imagine how you feel. I always feel I'm putting things in the right place then come to find it's better over here or wait maybe here or here. Looking great so far.
I'm Happy for you ! watching you figure things out in the new shop Gives me all kinds of ideas! You've come a long way in a short period of time so I Salute you Brent UDAMAN!
I know what you mean , you can never have enough air outlets and receptacles.... long time ago i worked at Hurst Yamaha & Marine in Houston TeXas , there were air hook ups every 8 to 10 feet it was nice to not chasing down a plug in when you needed it , one of the best shops i was a technician at with full machine tools for rebuilding engines ....... your shop is lookkng great especially the new lathe you judt got, getting a good collection of machine tools. They always come in handy in a pinch .
You have your stride is back, going back to the old you made it work because you had to. I think you need a space big enough to support and reflex your work to go forward. Shop is looking good.
Glad the shop is coming along. I'll watch whatever you make but I'm enjoying the truck build. As an Old body man I love the fab work because it's different from collision work I do
Brent your only one man mate! Your doing a great job in the shop, it’s going to take a good year to have it to where you want it buddy! Don’t burn yourself out ! 🤙🤙🤙
It's a great shop with the equipment you have the opportunity to create is endless. Just make sure you look after yourselves and don't burn out it would be a waste of good talent best wishes for the future cheers Ian 👍
Looking good that stuff you cut to add to ur tool cart is pretty sweet! I still can't get over that lift that you can move around either. It's awesome seeing what you can just come up with on the fly
Ah Brent everything looks great! I really like the portable tool chest and tool holder! Yeah everything looks swell! So happy for you and Esther♥ Love from us in Tennessee!!
Hey Brent Shop looks Great. I built a new shop about 2 years ago and it seems like there is always things to improve on don't get discouraged its just a process. I know you love the new shop. Can't wait to see all the new projects you tackle.
Like a phoenix from the flames I would not wish what you’ve been through on anyone but I’m loving the new shop and enjoying you getting it straight. All the best Jon (Uk)
No you are not building anything right now but i sure do enjoy watching you get your shop in order Brent. I like seeing you make all the different things to hold all your tools. I'm sure you are itching to get back on your truck and it will be interesting to see what's next.. Always a joy to see Pablo in the shop with you and it was too cute to see him get excited about going in the house. 🙂
It looks awesome, you guys are doing great, so fun and so happy for you. Really Like all your work, gives me ideas to organize my little shop. Thanks for sharing, Dennis
Yo Hi again Halfass Costoms Brent and Ester from the D Michigan 😁 thanks for sharing another update on the progress your property 👍 hey 👋 it's looking good like a Shop 🎉😅🤩
Man I could watch you paint,then watch it dry and learn something. So do what you do I'll be here learning a new trick to get the job done. Love the new shop. Can't imagine what you can get done in there🎉
Seeing those fire extinguishers mounted all over the shop made my heart happy.
One of the things i Love learning history, is how farmers made do with what they had. The contraptions they came up with to perform their duties is Amazing to behold. Similar to you. In watching your videos, you not only show what you build in the way of cars. You also include us to watch you MacGyver stuff together to make them functional for your purposes. Giving us a glimpse into how you adapt & reuse whats old, to make them new & use them to maintain your vehicles. Ty for taking us along as you move into your new shop
What ever content you put out is fine with me and I expect 99% of your subs... I'm just happy and grateful to see you in the new shop, happily working away.
Of course I'll be glad when you get back to your builds,but I also know it's a process 😎👍
Ditto❤
I love watching stuff like this as much as building cars there is always something we can take and use in our own stuff everyone does things different
I’m in that 99% for sure. 👍👍
It is always better to watch you organize a new shop vs sift through charred remnants of your old shop. Enjoy and have fun. You guys deserve it
You kept saying sorry about this video. No need for that, I enjoyed watching you fixing up the shop. I enjoyed this episode. Cheers Stew.
Brother, beautiful shop! One thing regarding the water table is If you cut aluminum with the plasma cutter make sure there is no air gap under the sheet. It can explode because you produce hydrogen. No bueno. I also grab an old speaker magnet and created a hook to fish out the peaces. When you maintenance and drain the water, the mag help you catch all the metal residue.
I don't cut much aluminum but that is good to know
When I had my garage built I had an enclosed mezzanine similar to what you are doing. One of the smarter things I did was to have a double door access installed where I could load a pallet of heavy things and pass them through the doorway using my forklift. I was 50 years old when I did that and now that I'm in my 70's I am really glad I did that back then. Things get heavier with age!
You always seem to be in a good mood, but seeing you working in the new shop is a whole new level. This is like watching a new channel! Congratulations on the new shop 🎉🎉🎉
Congrats 🎉😎👍
I really enjoy watching you set up the shop giving me ideas
I used to be a removal man. I used to move people's homes every day of the week. I know how stressful it can be and it can just take a day to move but can take a few weeks to settle in. At least you are under one roof with everything and are doing great.
It is great to see the shop coming along.
So much to do and still amazed with how big the shop is. Thanks for the video today. Watching a little Football and a little Brent, just another Sunday.

Wow, the new shop is looking great! Can’t believe it’s done already!

I'm just as entertained with the new shop videos, but it will be nice to see your builds again!
You are unstoppable Brent! Excellent progress!
I’m always amazed at the tools you build. You are a man of many talents. Your new shop is going to be very effective when you get it finished. Can’t wait to see progress on the roadster again. 👍
I can't get over how nice and portable that lift is. Awesome , great job on the new garage . You deserve it!!
Sometimes I think you move it just because you can
A balance of the new shop and you wrenching is perfect.No one gets bored that way.
It’s awesome that you’re getting the shop back in working order, it’s taken me a year and a half and I’m almost done now after having my roof collapse in my garage so I know how much work it is, great to be at the end of it and start working on cars more.

Don't worry. It's quite interesting to see you get the workshop in order too.
Being able to plasma cut your own tool holders is gold.
Really enjoying seeing what you have and how you are getting it all organized. Every bit as entertaining as watching a build.
From horrible sad Disaster to recovery. Good going . What a admirable attitude . Bravo !
It’s a job after a tragedy. You did amazing things in the small shop. And finally after all this. Got the new shop put together. It’s going to be great as you are.

Pablo seems at home in his new workshop, and luckily so do you. So glad to see you moved in and almost ready to rock and roll again.
It's really not slow. It takes time to set up a new shop. I think you are doing a great job. That water table is working nicely. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Never apologize Brent I'm excited to see everything take shape and seeing you happy in your new shop is awesome, I find it interesting watching you build different bits and pieces for your equipment and tools.

The evaluation of the workshop is beyond expectations 👍 As Always Thumbs Up !
That fork lift has to be the best buy ever ! You certainly got your money worth there. It's been a great help ! And I just can't be the only jealous guy here looking at your new shop ! Best of luck to you, your smile says it all !!!!
Yeah that thing is so awesome
It is great to watch you sorting out your workshop, reorganising until you get it to your needs.
No apologies on your progression . Some don't see the work you have done. I know how hard you've been working. I'm taking a nap now just watching you. My wife got up and cleaned her pantry because of you. Brian and Debi Washington state

the amount of utubers fitting out sheds over the last year or so is incredible . living the dream . im loving this kind of content
Just a suggestion, before you shorten the frame, do the cut on the tailgate. I personally think your proportions are spot on as is👍🏻
Can’t believe how hard you work! The shop is looking grand. You are fortunate to have the big tools to help you move things around! Happy holidays to you and Esther.
Yeah it would definitely be a struggle without the equipment
Wow Brent and Ester you have done alot of sorting stuff out in the new shop with Pablo just watching you. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Super collective production. It's great to also see and watch the behind the scenes going-on's. I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this go get it done guy. Many thanks.
Take your time and organize your shop, you deserve it, the electric forklift is a terrific labor saver
Yeah man that thinks the bomb
i am so happy for you getting moved in the new shop. now we can see more of your builds. thanks for showing your shop

Best channel on TH-cam!

Hardware bins = win! Shop will be AWESOME, it's well on it's way, great job man.
Looking good that stuff you cut to add to ur tool cart is pretty sweet! I still can't get over that lift that you can move around either. It's awesome seeing what you can just come up with on the fly
It must pretty overwhelming to try and plan everything that has to be done. I like to watch how it's all coming together. Good Job.
Ah Brent everything looks great! I really like the portable tool chest and tool holder! Yeah everything looks swell! So happy for you and Esther♥ Love from us in Tennessee!!
To you an Esther Merry Xmas, Happy New Year and may God Bless
Watching you Brent do these tasks, makes me feel like i am there with you even though im in california.the shop is looking so great and functional.
Hey Brent Shop looks Great. I built a new shop about 2 years ago and it seems like there is always things to improve on don't get discouraged its just a process. I know you love the new shop. Can't wait to see all the new projects you tackle.
Great to see you settling into new shop,,,that wee forklift is sure turning out to be a handy companion round the place
For that little extra platform for u made, you can use it as a spot to film from over head to display a large area while you work.
Ah! You have the best helper for that lift, one that loves and encourages!
Thanks for taking us along........and the music is kickass
Like a phoenix from the flames I would not wish what you’ve been through on anyone but I’m loving the new shop and enjoying you getting it straight.
All the best Jon (Uk)

Yo Hi again Halfass Costoms Brent and Ester from the D Michigan 😁 thanks for sharing another update on the progress your property 👍 hey 👋 it's looking good like a Shop 🎉😅🤩
I enjoy the building of your shop and the setup as much as I do the working on the cars trucks variety is the spice of life😊
New shop is really standing tall! Getting everything like you want it will take a while. Take care.
Love it😂😂 use a vice to bend brackets and then grinds and uses a folder as a paint table. Brilliant!!
Shops looking absolutely magnificent
Coming together. Loved the tool box modifications.
Man I could watch you paint,then watch it dry and learn something. So do what you do I'll be here learning a new trick to get the job done. Love the new shop. Can't imagine what you can get done in there🎉
Congratulations on the new shop, Brent.😊😊😊😊.Big enough to most around
Any content you give is greatly appreciated. The shop is really shaping up nice.
