While I love your shop I love everything about your story.You are truly blessed to be able to do what you like. You are a very rich man and I hope you know it. What is best is you are doing it while you are young and can enjoy it. I am afraid I waited too long. My wife and I always dreamed about living like you and have even bought a large amount of land in north Florida with plans to build there. The problem is, time passes faster then you think. I am afraid I spent too much time making money to enjoy it. Now I am old, in poor health with money to burn and what the F good is it. My biggest hope is you have inspired others to reach for a dream and do it, as time waits for no man. Thanks.
Sorry to hear about your poor health. To some degree I'd wager the grass is not greener on the other side. My shop is good enough. I'd rather pay a gunsmith to build me a rifle. Although I only have a couple of acres, it borders thousands and thousands of acres of state game lands and wildlife conservation territory that I do not have to pay taxes on-LMAO. Mr. Toobe engages in marketing and I'd wager he benefits from it. Enjoy your life and don't feel like you've missed out. Best wishes to you and your wife.

I hope you're not boomer. I hate to stereotype, but boomers will go down in history as generation that ruined America. Sorry to some of you boomers out there (my dad was one) but I feel like I inherited a world in decay.
Amazing space and design, not to mention true freedom living on acreage. Definitely inspired me to design and build something similar on my property, now that I’m in the country. Thx for all you do!!!
I've been watching you for a long time and I must say you are living the dream . I'm a lifelong outdoorsman brought up in a machine shop my dad was a machinist which led me into that career. To accuracy gunsmithing target shooting competitor several different disciplines. Kind of wondered about you at first but you really got it together looks good. keep up the good work
Sweet set up. You made mention about your shop air. Let me make a couple suggestions. First, do not use PVC pipe for a couple reasons, first being safety. If and I hope this never happens to anyone, you were to have a fire, the PVC will naturally melt which is opening the flow of air, which is going to help fuel the fire until your tank is empty, and if you didn’t shut the compressor off, you now have a pump sending air. Part 2, is fitting joints failing which can blow the joint apart and could injure someone. I gave this exact advice to one of my associates when he built his shop a few years ago. Just recently he told me that he has to replace the piping do to clue joints are popping apart. Use Black pipe and do a loop system to minimize pressure drop. Again sweet set up, thanks for sharing.
What an inspirational experience its been to watch the videos, the informative tips, and above all, the earnest and dedicated passion. Very best wishes Gavin, for making a burgeoning success of it all. John Weigel - Australia
Sweet tour of the shop, ty... side note: I once saw a passive solar hot water set up with a south facing fence, manifold , black garden hose encased behind acrylic, hot water quantity depends on length of hose after initial cost it runs free spring, summer, & fall.
Thanks for sharing all of your content Gavin. I’ve been new to reloading this year and seriously appreciate how much you nerd out on this stuff. Very helpful for the rest of us.
Great area, great workshop, friendly owner.... Wow! If I ever travel to the USA, I would love to stop there. Many greetings from Germany and happy reloading, Dennis
One of two things will happen in time when you rewatch this. You’ll laugh at yourself for having something where it was or you will be surprised that something hasn’t moved since haha. What a great looking shop you have there man. Definitely inspiring, thanks for the tour hopefully I can make it up sometime!
My favorite thing is your grandfather's work bench. You are surrounded by great beauty and a lot of really nice machinery, but your grandfather's work bench to me, is something that is priceless and you have stewardship of it. The Chevrolet truck is cool too. I am happy for you. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. Really cool tour.
A small electric on demand water heater could supply enough warm/hot water for your sink; it only uses juice when heating water and to prevent freezing.
Absolutely blown away by your setup. Seeing “behind the curtain” I can now see your passion and obsession with the details. I’m glad you get to do what really drives you.
love the shop but you need a metal shaper( cut dovetails- inside keyways- t-slots)- die filer- keyseater ( cut raceways to make rifle actions)-and a vertical slotting machine (make ar-15 barrel extensions)
This was a great video. Thank you for giving us a window into your life. You have an amazing shop with so much potential ( which you already know). I frequent your channel for inspiration. Keep up the hard work.
@@Ultimatereloader I'm not as 'far out' from the world as you seem to be cuz I still have to work and have fast internet at home, but I have some land, some privacy and almost verbatim share your words about liberty. I need to go ahead and get some suppressors now .... then my three neighbors wouldn't know a thing :-)
I have had this same idea for building a garage for awhile now, only difference is I was thinking of using 4 shipping containers, and Burying two of them then stacking the other two on top of those then digging out the dirt between them to create a kind of in ground garage that Extends out of the ground, it would allow you to have a pretty tall garage that doesn’t stick to far up off the ground
Awesome set up there Gavin . I’m sure I speak for everyone of your subscribers when I say that we love your passion and enthusiasm and admire your machining skills , your technical knowledge of all things firearms and reloading related that you share with us . Keep up the great content.
Bardzo inspirujące doświadczenie. Masz świetne warunki. Faktycznie tak można wyobrazić sobie prawdziwą wolność. Trzymaj się, i rób dalej swoje. Jesteś niesamowity! Pozdrowienia z Polski! 🇵🇱
Cool shop! When we built our house we built a 3 car garage and closed one 'bay' in as my reloading room. It's my Oasis. Heated and air conditioned (mini split) with 3 walls covered in bench space with cabinets. I like it being attached to the house so it's not like I'm leaving the family to go 'work in the shop'. Been a subscriber for a loooong time. Keep up the good work!
Awesome shop/residential paradise! You do an amazing job on all of you're videos. I'm just starting to get my feet wet in reloading and enjoying your reviews and information passed on to us. One other plus after watching the walk threw of you're amazing shop is you keep it real for people starting out to the more experienced reloader's.
I will be giving some serious thought to building a container-based shop now that I have seen yours. I now have a shop with a parts washer, bench grinder, inspection/layout area, a 14 1/2 "x 72" South Bend lathe, a 9" by 30" S.B. lathe, same size Clausing lathe, an Enco bench mill, welding area with gas, stick, MIG, and TIG, all in a 12'x 26 ' shed. Can't keep it clean or organized. Have to move a bunch of crap whenever I do anything. Love your ideas.
Hey Gavin! Enjoyed your video. As a young child back East I have always wanted wide open spaces and like yourself I always associated it FREEDOM! Stay healthy.
Love your setup! As John below indicated, you are blessed to have your youth along with your dream setup and be able to enjoy it. I am middle aged and have a few years yet, God willing. It is my dream, as I am sure most others, to have the land and facilities to do what you do. I am very into firearms and building them. I am loosely an "amateur machinist" with very little formal training but like to dabble and try stuff. My wife and I are trying to work towards a larger land purchase in the woods to either build or fix up a fixer upper and where I can shoot without any worries. Both of our priority is to have an outbuilding for my collection of tools, pew pews, and hobby stuff. :) Always good to have the blessings from my better half on that part. The shipping container method you used seems to be a very good affordable option, thank you for showing us that. Thank you for all your content and I look forward to more videos.
btw my grandfather was a chief tool and die forman for general motors for around 40 yrs and i also have his oak tool chest on my bench. i use it for small reloading tools. love the nostalgia
Love the shop! Unfortunately I possess none of the 3 "T's" - time tools, or talent, lol. I'll have to continue to live vicariously. Keep up the great work!
Gavin, my Dad sent me a link to one of your videos and I just think you are awesome! Thank you for your time and effort in doing this. You are doing a really good job.
Awesome. One day when I grow up I to shall have a shop like this one. So nice to see someone being able to do what they want when they want and how they want. Thank you for sharing. Waiting for more vids.
I'm new to your channel and learning a lot- I know this is one of your older videos but what a shop absolutely incredible, thank you for being there for us and teaching
Gavin - I coach people how to live their best lives and you are a PRIME example. I’d love to interview you at some point for our upcoming podcast. God bless. You’re a real inspiration.
I definitely need to build a small reloading/work shop. Currently have a small desk in my closet with my press set up. Confined, and sketchy at best. lol Scared I'm going to end up burning down my house. Lots of good ideas here. Thanks for the tour.
Gavin is really well educated in terms of engineering, scientific research and gunsmithing. He has combined it all to the betterment of all the rest of us. Thanks Gavin!
Seeing the shop brought back some good memories; I was living in Montana doing stock finishing for Cooper Arms when I was sent up to Stevensville to pick up a pallet of ammo. The place was on a farm and there was a huge old sagging barn with obvious add-ons over the years. I walked in and immediately noticed the worn out wooden floors and alfalfa dust everywhere but the equipment was spotless. There were cartridge reloading machines from hell to breakfast and ALL were humming right along. I spoke with the owner about the pickup and while we waited he was going on and on about his new CIA contract he'd been awarded. "This is going to be our big break!" he said. Well, he was right. I didn't care for the yellow boxes and neon orange labels, but customers didn't seem to care. Hunt Shack Missoula (HSM) started in an old dairy barn--now look at them! :)
Oh wow, thanks for the story. I always wondered what HSM name was from on the shelves at Sportsmans Warehouse. They load Berger bullets for hu ting and Bear loads i n 10mm.
To keep the heat from going through the roof in the winter we use perforated radiant barrier in the attic... same thing in the summer except it keeps heat in the attic from radiating into the house. My guess is you have the rafters insulated above R19 and that great but standard insulation won't stop radiation heat transfer like pure alluminum perforated radiant barrier. You should be able to find it and the science behind it on the www.
I am supremely jealous of this space.
Thanks- you guys need to come and visit... :)
