Carpet in a woodworking shop looks cray cray.... unless you aren't doing any woodworking in there... you know cutting, sanding, spilling solvents, etc... Maybe it works, but please tell us how it's working out, with vacuuming wood residue and dust. I personally would have gotten with a floor that kept the dirt visible, and easy to clean... i.e. vacuum, mop, squeegee, etc.... but you are the expert so what do I know....
Another option is valspar porch and floor paint in your color choice. Base coat it, second coat throw a heavy broadcast of paint chips. Spray 2 to 3 coats of hardwood floor urethane on top to hold it all down. I did this in a 12x24 shed and it's holding up to abuse and looks just like an epoxy flake floor. Price wise it's massively cheaper than epoxy kits
A rich guy would have built an entire shop with all new stuff. Get your grind on, upgrade your career or trade. If you don't have either of those, I suggest getting an in demand skill. Blue collar jobs will make you a lot of money these days and have way less investment than some university degree from a bunch of professors that are or concerned about indoctrinating people then giving them good skills to go out and be a contributing member of society.
As a lady who uses her garage for about 10 different purposes, including a car space, gym, workshop and office, I loved the heck out of this. I did carpet tiles in my office area but just joined the corners with sticky corners. It's a superb space you've created. 👌🏻
Stumbled across your channel out of curiosity...never did I expect to see my favourite colour (lime green/sweet pea) splashed around with so much flair and artistry in a workshop. That alone got you another subscriber...well done sir. Mrs Haxman has a steady hand on the drone controls. Cheers from down under 🇦🇺
NO CARPET IN THE SHOP!!! I'm a retired local & long haul truck driver of 42 years. I've delivered to thousands of businesses, and homes. And one the worst deliveries were gun shops and exercise equipment stores. And they had one thing in common "CARPET"!!! Try rolling a pallet jack with a pallet with a gun safe or 500 lbs crate of weights across CARPET!!!
Wonder if old fashion tile would be a better choice? I am thinking of the black and grey squares. Anyone have experience with them? Especially if keeping a car in the Garage?
Good thing he isn't rolling a pallet jack with 500lbs on it around his shop. Its a Garage not a Commercial space, for what he needs to do it there it will be fine.
I don’t think I would use carpet in my garage either but if I did carpet tiles are the way to go. If there are stains or damage just pull up the bad tiles and replace them.
Watching your videos scratches an itch for me. I would love to be a perfectionist with these types of projects, but I get too tired to finish it well. Watching you mark everything and put it up exactly where it is marked just makes for a great video
I have used the early version of the Rigid Miter Saw stand for my Makita sliding miter saw for 20 years. It folds up and stores out of the way similar to yours. Same extended rollers for longer boards. Love it!
You are truly a craftsman. That mistake in the round table could have destroyed that project but you found a way to recover and finish it. You got street cred points as far as I’m concerned. Keep creating!
I'm not gonna lie, adding a TV and a PC with a wireless keyboard w/ trackpad has been the best thing I've done to my shop. no more leaning under the hood trying to watch a TH-cam video on my phone while trying to fix something new!
Sometimes you gotta completely destroy something to be able to make it better. When I was little I would be told to clean my room before playing outside...soooo I'd take everything completely out into the hallway and put it all back in piece by piece to perfect and better than ever every time. It helped to have a change of normalcy and also to see what things I actually had that I then had the choice to keep and rearrange or get rid of.
LOL... I needed that. Your solution to removing the mess could certainly be effective. Thanks for a great video and for sharing your experiences in a fun, effective way.
So great to see you are back and bringing A-Game humor and videos for us to enjoy and learn from. Can’t wait to see what you are going to accomplish. You are inspirational!
Like what you did with the shop/mancave/garrage. You know what I have not seen that would be cool is integrating a power station like BLUETTI, or EcoFlow into the workbench so that the power goes with the work bench when you roll it out into the driveway for cutting and other things. You could build a compartment on the side or back with filters to keep the dust down and mount a power strip on the outside so you could plug in tools like a saw. Mobile power for a mobile work bench. It would be super convenient to not have to roll out cords everywhere and then find a free outlet to plug it in every time. Now this would add some weight and you would have to recharge it when you put it away but it would be super cool.
Orange and lime green belong in a garage. Well done Sir! I declare that is thee most pristine gairodge east of the Mississippi. May your shop neva again be sullied by unnecessary clutta!
After six month's of use, how practical have the carpet tiles been? Is cleaning an issue? By the way, I seriously love the green contrast with the black. Great combination.
Dude! I love the content you put out-super instructional and inspirational, all while keeping it fun. You make these projects feel totally achievable for a regular guy like me. Keep it coming!
I created a dream garage w $3,200. $1,500 for Epoxy flooring. $500 for Track system and $1,000 for Craftsman Stanley cabinets and a Craftsman stainless steel bench (discontinued), and $200 for paint. Took me 2 months from start to finish.
Ohhhh the satisfaction of woodworking without actually being the one that does the work!!!! Just need to work out the smell a vision so the audience can smell the fresh cut wood. Ohhh wait, I have a scented candle for that lol.
In the 2+ years I've been watching your channel I've seen you reorganize/clearout your garage a few times. Glad to know it's not just me that does it only to have it become a catch-all later! 😅 BTW - how high is your garage ceiling? This has definitely given me some ideas, especially that lighting!
My favorite makeover video even though its a little rich for what i want to do. However it gives you ideas on what you can do with what you have! Great job man! It looks great!
I don't understand you said you wanted. It brighter, but you covered up white paint. Which is the brightest you could have with Gray doesn't make sense. I'm the ceiling you could have used crumpled up.Aluminum foil straightened it out.And glue it to the ceiling and put lights over top of that.That would be pretty cool.
hey buddy, i don't know how your video came up on my youtube homepage 😂, and i love all your content. greetings from Indonesia and btw the color combination between (green, gray and black) is really perfect all over the room and the stuff. moreover green and gray are my favorite colors. I'll press your subscribe button, friend 💪🏻 😉
I love my miter saw collapsible saw stand. I forget the brand but my son called me one day saying mom go get this stand. $99.00 well spent many years ago. It now has a wheel that the bearing needs to be replaced yesterday….
Man, when you talked about making things too tight, I had like PTSD from working with my father. That man is like .. "126 feet, 9 and 1/16th inches" and it must be EXACT. And, you woodworkers sure do have it easy. Us fab guys have 10x the materials, 10x the mess and need 10x the space.
I would never even dream of attempting to build the stuff you build; that's just not in my wheelhouse. I'm just watching your channel because these videos are so much fun. Again, the Bigfoot cameo. And the doppelgänger. LMAO
I'm brand new to this site - ok ok - the gasoline/ fire segment was a bit much, the eating glue got me to chuckle but damit, the French's mustard bit got me laughing out loud. New fan here
Love the makeover... I need to do something similar... but I've got a '66 mustang in my garage and tools I need to organize. Really good looking makeover man!
I’m here from the hanging cabinets video. I’m glad you finally cleaned up your garage… also, I could have sworn I was subscribed to you before, but just had to resubscribe for some odd reason
I just built my own kitchen cabinets. Why is it everything is always too tight. Grab a 2x4, a piece of pine and that sledgehammer will get that upper cabinet in place. Thanks for sharing with us 🙏
love the project, love the gas even more. Still gonna do Race Deck in my garage though. Wait a minute! I park my cars in my garage. You need a shop, so you can park your cars in your garage. Garages are for cars…or man caves! Work is not done in a man cave, so don’t even go there.
Epic game changer! 😂I didn't know how much I missed seeing you and your fun character and cool projects. OH can't for get... Love Love Love Love the family 😅😂😅❤😊
Absolutely unreal. I can appreciate just how big of a project that is. If that was my garage build I'd camp out in it the first night. You are quite the craftsman excited to see more of your skills. Stumpy nubs has used carpet in his woodshop and he's good with it. I'll be doing the same. Adobe Premier has some new ai tools that look pretty sick when you catch your breath check them out. Nice work Adam.
Thanks Jacob! Yes, when I first thought about using carpet I looked to see if anyone had a video on it and found his. That's what made me feel it was good to go. I'm always slow to update Adobe to try and prevent bugs. 😂
I have been wondering what colour to use in my garage and the green you have is pretty similar to the colour of my Engine tin ( Air Cooled Porsche). A buddy of mine painted my tin. bright Green when I was away on business. He had helped me build the motor. Well here I am years later. I love the colour as crazy as it is and then I see your garage! Your place looks fantastic and I really like the lights! Thanks so much for posting!

5:20 wants to paint ceiling to brighten things up. Proceeds to paint a dark color. 😂
That made me laugh too
Came to the comments to say this.. 😅
But it looks cool lol
Even his bright green would have been better, but you can't beat semi-gloss white! Helps repel dust too! :)
What brand are the lights? I’m interested now

My mom put linoleum in her garage. This was back in the 70’s. It was super durable. She parked and drove on it, which lasted years.
The biggest problem with linoleum is you have to seal it, generally annually.
"I got so sick of it I just started stapling it..." -- laughed till it hurt. Thank you!

The anger in my body when he painted the outlet
As an electrician this killed me internally.
Use scotch bright pads to scuff metal for paint. Tip of the day! Would be much better on the diamond plate.

The black and green are STUNNING!
Honey mustard is more adhesive than the classic French's yellow mustard.
I'll try to remember that.
Spicy brown will also work in a pinch but I found that it is a much better hole filler than an adhesive.
But at least French's yellow mustard is good for *something*.
I thought you were talking about condiments.😅
@@Antisympathy Everything I say is G-rated on TH-cam. I don't know what others are on about. Adios.
Love it, we use both the plastic tiles and the hexagon lights at work, and I still think the carpet tiles love well....

I lost it at high performance European imports and it flashes to his FREAKING ADORABLE dogs
Hey we all built it as tight as we can. Its a default failsafe to keep perfection the light that guides us.
Love that Vago green was used. Now I want to do my garage like that
This video has so many funny add-ons Im impressed!
Love all the overhaul. Put the mobile bases on all my equipment. So much easier to move around and get out of the way.
My dad got a big dewalt saw and the same rigid stand for 250 best deal ever and it folds out of our way when not in use!

I AM SO JEALOUS!!!! OH MY GOD !!!! My garage where I work on different projects is a DISASTER AREA 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️. I need a GARAGE MAKEOVER 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I use the same brand of wood glue. Has worked quite well compared to the gallon size bottle I was using.
Ohhhh the satisfaction of woodworking without actually being the one that does the work!!!! Just need to work out the smell a vision so the audience can smell the fresh cut wood. Ohhh wait, I have a scented candle for that lol.

It will probably happen again. 😄 My ceiling is 9' tall.
Good to see you back brother!!!
Thanks! I'm going to try and get the videos out quicker.
Wow, you did an amazing job with this project. I'm a little skeptical of the flooring but time will tell on that.
The light cover dying had me cracking up😂
Rip light cover.
Fantastic makeover! That is a real inspiration for my shop when I build one.
Less than 60 seconds in and I’m super impressed by production value! Subbed!
My favorite makeover video even though its a little rich for what i want to do. However it gives you ideas on what you can do with what you have! Great job man! It looks great!
He does a great job. He's a craftsman. The large bulk of viewers can't do any of this.
Nah uhhhh i can definitely paint over an outlet cover! 😂
I've always wanted to ask. Why not paint the boards before you put the boxes together? Seems like it would be a lot easier.
It would take longer because you can only paint one side at a time and then you couldn't glue them.
I don't understand you said you wanted. It brighter, but you covered up white paint. Which is the brightest you could have with Gray doesn't make sense. I'm the ceiling you could have used crumpled up.Aluminum foil straightened it out.And glue it to the ceiling and put lights over top of that.That would be pretty cool.
