Here's an easy trick to get things level: Do one side at a time. Put it up roughly where you think it should go, mark the spot on one side, screw in a screw (or as us Europeans with brick or cement walls, drill a hole and use a "rawlplug") and boom, you got yourself a free hand. Simply hang up one side of whatever you need to mount, hold the other side with your hand, and mark the hole. As someone who just moved into my own house, I've done this probably 20 times thus far. Alternatively, stick some tape underneath the holes on the rack, mark the holes with a sharpie, and put the tape on the wall. Getting the flimsy 1 gram tape on the wall and getting it level is much, much easier than trying to mark some holes by lifting a rack up there.
Expertly done Quinn! If you want to get into weights, a power cage is the way to go, so it can catch the weights if you fail and can work out by yourself. To fit in your small space you could get a shorter "training" bar that can still hold a lot of weight for basic fitness.
The reason for the discrepancy in the hole size for the Ethernet cable is for a cable that does not have a RJ45 end already crimped. Crimping afterwards reduces air leak between conditioned and unconditioned environments.
I wear weights while playing vr. I even have quick swappable and machine washable facial interfaces. It is the best way to work out if you aren't doing manual labor that also pays well.
when he said having exposed networking equipment was "unsightly" I died. Idk about you, but I would be proud to show off stuff like that. Thats why r/homelab exists
because working out in VR is waaaaay better for increasing your metabolism. lol but my 2 cents, paint the switch box white with appropriate metal spray paint and always use banana plugs for audio, takes longer initially but it pays back dividends when something happens, and it always does. like a lightning strike blowing up your amp or your cheap amp just dying and you have swap it out in a year or two.

Funny timing my fellow Utahn, not too long ago I replaced a plebian normie wifi router with a 24 port PoE switch and Ubiquiti AP, and just this past week or so rebuilt my home theater to a neighbor-aggravating 7.2.4 setup with fancy 4k HDR tv. I too mounted the TV "too high" to clear 3 front tower speakers, so sue me.
I now base my dream of a smart home(or as I see it: simply my future home) off of your videos. You do it logically, and you make what matters just work. Bravo, and please keep making more content in this genre!
This installation stuff only works mostly hassle-free because in the US and Canada houses are built from cardboard. Imagine having concrete/brick walls and ceilings.
Great video of the process many thanks. Does anyone have any good videos to learn about wall work? How to identify studs, how to drill into brick vs. dry wall, etc?
Cool Gym.. and yet the most interesting part to me was those snap off raw plug things you put in the wall at around the 5 min mark ... never seen those before, i shall be searching those out ... :)
This is genuinely such a great video! Very informative, very nicely paced imo. Also, the shoutout for Silver Cup was a nice feel. I love their music and am always happy to see you plug their stuff. They deserve every bit of attention :D
"and this is a gym so im not super picky" he says after building an entire room running cable, electric, Ethernet switches, in ceiling surround speakers, AC, and building an entire VR dedicated PC rig. hahahahaha I think the most i did for my garage gym is buy some foam mats from harbor freight and a big fan lol! That is a sick set up dude. Throw in a Rogue RML-3W Fold Back wall mount Rack and youre good to go.
This is why you plan your network BEFORE you hand the drywall... could have saved yourself a TON of work by running all your cables before drywall, lol.
This was really cool. Since it’s a project with your wife you should look at working her into the video. My wife would love the tonal, maybe one day. We have a Peloton now which she loves. That point to point wireless option was cool, I wasn’t aware they were that reasonable.
Fun fact, i installed similar wifi kits inside the elevator shafts of a 20 story building, to retrofit IP security cameras (one in the top of the shaft, one on top of the cabin) Been working great for about 5 years now.

Lol. That is true to this day. Although have never been married.

What size of room you have there? I can't really use you for scale as you are even taller than I.
10x20 so pretty small. 8.5’ ceilings.
I counted 26 outfit changes, hbu? 😅
I edited it, and I don't even know. 😅
It says Quinn replied, but it’s not showing up.
@Rakshit Jain ah bet bet
This mad lad literally made a radio backhaul for his HOME network.
This is like a small version of how rural cellular networks work!
I live for Quinn's house renovations. I'll have another 30 minute video please
I love ceiling quinn. He's my favorite.
I appreciate you doing this as I'm sure that FILMING building a smart garage gym at least doubles the work of your renovation. Looks great, team!
The attic crawl is almost half of what I do as an electrician. Crawl spaces are just as fun.
That's cool, but where is the gym? So far all I see is a 30,000 gaming room.
There’s two pieces of gear already here. Rest is coming soon. Part 1 of 2.
@@snazzy ha, nice excuse, Quinn! First pretend to build a gym, then end up with a gaming room/man cave that your wife would've never approved! Genius!
He's got a Tonal, which I think is a pretty good start.

If he has a Tonal, he may not need free weights for a while. A Tonal can go up to 200 lbs.
The reason for the discrepancy in the hole size for the Ethernet cable is for a cable that does not have a RJ45 end already crimped. Crimping afterwards reduces air leak between conditioned and unconditioned environments.
Or just use a rubber boot around the wire after you've pulled it through.
You're a brave man for filming yourself doing DIY stuff, let alone posting it. Great job with this, looks fantastic!
Wait where's the gym part?
This is a part 1, Sullins! Once I get some gains like you, I’m making a part 2.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who jams out to the sound calibration of their receiver :)
Actually the best video in a while since I recently got my first house and is interested in what you are doing.👍
Oh Quinn! I couldn’t help laughing hysterically when you were in the attic! I’ve been there so many times my brother!!
Man, that vr cable management is genius. Completely jealousy inducing setup. Only one question, are those first gen lighthouses?
They are! Been reliable for me since day 1 of Vive!
@@snazzy That's awesome to hear, hopefully they've got plenty of life left too
Quinn, do you plan on using Fitness+ on an Apple TV hooked up to the main tv in the gym?
i was wondering that too! Would love to get a real review from Quinn.
Hmmm
Now that is a wicked gym.
I didn't knew you were interested in vr !! nice ! happy gaming in your new room !

5:42 nice Japanese variety show “wow” sound 😂
Tip, you can use VR in very small spaces. Just have your legs touching something (eg a bed) to orient you in the space
Love this type of content. Solves a real problem and all the pieces that went into it. Not just a here’s a device that does x…
Also… would be interested in the recessed lights- assume those are led panels?

Now that your garage is more livable space maybe add insulation in attic?
Definitely gonna happen. Just wanted to get everything in first because I think we're just gonna do blow-in.
Nice VR space you can sometimes use as a gym! But dude you really need to get banana plugs for the receiver so much easier and cleaner
Congrats on 1 mil, great video man!!
Your hand going though the hole for the light got me so hard
Hardest I've laughed at a tech vid in a while
Funny that this was released at the same time Linus released a vid with a more extreme version of the PtP ethernet
Awesome! Good handiwork too! You’ve build a nice looking gym so far
I prefer 4mm banana plugs to the spring loaded speaker connectors
damn, that's awesome... gimme part 2!

"I have a problem but I don't want to deal with it" - Said everybody who discovered/created a problem while home renovating.
Protip: Some cloth on the walls (and / or floor) goes a long way towards better sound by eliminating reverb.
Ya gotta Wang-jangle.
Nice job - though I've always felt uncomfortable in rooms without a window or at least some form of natural light.
That’s why we installed a skylight.
