Yes, I did the same, when I rebuilt my Toyota 22R, 4 cylinder motor. Bag and Tag, correct fasteners for every step. The Timing Cover uses a few different length bolts, so I made a simple cardboard template, and poked the bolts into their prospective marxhing holes. No left over fasteners, when rebuild is complete.. Keep up the awesome technical videos! ❤️ them! ~Aloha! 🤙🙂🤙
Hey Kevin! Good to see you're new shop up and running! Hope it's all good for you and with all this work, I hope you got a little time to do some fishing. Maybe, one day I'll own another bike. If I do, I'll do my best to get it to your shop and have it gone over, under, around and through! I really enjoy watching you work, It's always a learning experience for me. Peace!
Hi 👋, great raking, I used to have a clipboard that would hang on the shelving, So I would remember what I needed to, an order, and put in order to be renewed, And cleanliness is next to godliness from what I can remember, 😂, from a very old dude,
Your 100% correct…the biggest thing that has helped me is cleaning as you go instead of cleaning after each job is done….I’ve gotten to where I can tell if I had a busy day based on how many time I had to sweep the floor that day….
great video Kevin. i am diy'er and have torn down 4 bikes that i have owned, one thing that i do is have a big piece of cardboard that i can set the bolts, nuts on. i document what they are for, and even write the wrench size with it to help me putting stuff back together.. i will at times also write the torque specs since i am usually using the manual to take it apart. this approach makes sure that i have put all the necessary pieces back on the bike
@@KevinBaxter anytime. Us young techs have come to appreciate men like yourself who set a good example of quality. Your pursuit for perfection in this industry is refreshing to say the least. Your work is good, and I appreciate the opportunity to learn. God bless you and your family.
I love the bread rack idea... THe tool tips works I just started doing that of putting tools back and clean them is faster than searching for them in the long run..
Another great video, now if you only had one on organizing a garage and how to keep the members of the household out of it to maintain the organization
This video warms my heart! I admit to being quite anal about keeping tools and parts organized and where they “belong” when doing projects…on my bikes and otherwise!
great vid , Ive been around shops since 1987 and have had my own since 1999 .. I love the racks , I have 7 or 8 myself and 3 half racks.. full ones for the bikes like you use and half ones for Ls or small block engine builds ... I use to use the Uhaul blankes untill I realized how messy them fuzzy fckrs were , card board is the way to go..costco and sams is best to get them
Thank you sir! Can't hardly wait to see some tear downs, I truly learn more from that procedure because it's like every engine is different yet it's the same! The issues people have are all different thus the tear downs are different. If that makes any sense!😁👍✌️🇺🇲🏍
My pet peeve…you don’t know how many times I’ve been in a dealership’s service area and saw painted parts sitting on the floor. Can’t understand why a service manager would allow that. Glad to see your concern for customers’ bikes.
Good info. I like to do the same thing with tools. Clean them and put them away. Also I don’t mind getting dirty working on something but not from my tools. Take care and thanks.
Appreciate your time and effort to show us your organization. Definitely a over looked component of working on your projects for many folks. A future video idea if you have the time, could you show us your cleaning station and what you do. Back you were doing your shovelhead and demonstrating how much of that glass bead was still there, I was wondering how you would clean your cases. Thank you again Sir
Thx Kevin, good system reminded me of a propeller shop I used to work at. We kept a significant number of old canned food boxes to store the small parts. One box for each prop.
Love it, you're 15 hundred miles away. I found an Indy 2 hours away and went with them. Bottom line, I''ll buy you and yours, breakfast just to be able to visit with you. Love every bit of this, you get how it think. If you were only closer! Thank you for the drop, it makes perfect sense to me. Old codger that I am, I get it. Keep up the good work, take care of yours and the folks that make it happen there3!
Great Tutorial Kevin Thanks again , all ur organization make perfect sense for you & to me ..Parts yes & work flow ....but also tools is an biggie to me ....I do HVAC For a living & work on all my own bike also but after an job is complete i always try to put my tools back @ the end of the day where thy belong ..a place for everything & everything in its place ..don't move them somewhere special or ill forget where it is , maybe forever lol ....nothing worst than needing an tool right now but takes 5 - 20 mins to find that tool is the worst time waster that I shouldn't & don't bill My customer for my lack of organization
another tutorial Id love to see is how with so much work going on simultaneously . do you track & keep up with costs to each customer @ the end of each job ....labor esp & parts maybe easier to track w/ PO but labor ..time sheets work orders etc Thanks
I can remember being totally convinced my father had completely lost his mind when he opened up his first shop and stuck me with building shelves from reclaimed barn wood for two weeks. Of course ……. These weren’t normal “ book” shelves……. He was having me build shelves to hold heavy equipment parts & pieces. I asked him when we were going to start tearing down army tanks sarcastically…… He gave me the look…. And yelled “ Anybody willing to pay for it …. Now get back to work !!!” When he sold out fifteen years later, those shelves were still standing, and sold them at a nice profit. They held all the heavy parts from engine tear downs on big farm tractors, same deal. Everything removed from one unit had it’s own pair of shelves, with spaces in between for the new parts as they came in.
I'm with you. My blind spot isn't as big, but it's big enough to hide a 1/2'' box wrench out in the open for 2 1/2 laps around the lift. It was right where it should be, but I sure didn't see it at first. I'm looking into the bagg'r rack, I do not enjoy the folding set that keeps bags just off the floor. It's too much of a footprint down low and it just feels like I'm supposed to line up for a field goal... sometimes. The major selling points might be that there's a spot for the side covers and the bags are at a better working-height. If there were an invention to store painted parts in "the cloud" when they have to be removed, I'd be down. Apparently, a lot can get put in "the cloud"?
I purchased four chrome bread racks before 2019 to organize the basement in my home. I sure wish I purchased more back then because they have doubled in price. Great information Mr. B
Hey Kev great tips for us diyers out here. I’ve been using racks for awhile from when I did a couple of cars years back. Thanks for reminding me to use them for my bike👍🏻🤣
What you mentioned on min 4:30 to 5:00 just happend to me 3 months ago when I was worling on my bike and a blind hole that is were you tighten the rocker arms just blew away the blind hole and I had no idea why!? Well now I know why 👍🏼. Thanks for the video.
Crap... Looking at my bike thru the baker rack is really frustrating. During the video I so much hoped to get a closer look, even tho there's no motor in it. Getting excited to get a look at the finished product. Thanks for taking care of the bike and the methodical approach to organization, and thanks for the video.
Kevin, good video. I remember seeing those racks in Winders. Looks like you are getting some rest in between all the work you are doing. That's a good looking hat there. I don't know if you have one or have seen them "Let's Roll" stand for cleaning, moving or storing a bike. I was wondering what your thoughts are on this item. Like you when I had my shop, I was all about putting my tool up at the end of the day. Especially my calipers and micrometer. Made it all the the end! I am ready for the live!
Great video Kevin. As you mentioned in draining the tank completely, is there a chance of rust developing and would you store it with a little bit of stabilizer in it?
I fing hate muffin tins, im a zip lock bag or tupperware guy. I put all the hardware with the components or cases they belong to.I also work on a wide variaty of things, bikes, quads, snowmobile ect ect. like those bread racks though
Thanks for the video. I ordered the Bagg’r Rack. It’s way better than the flimsy Harley branded one.
Right on!
As usual Kevin you have been a excellent teacher for anyone.

I'm with You on the organizing. Never heard it explained in detail before Thankyou Kevin
Hey Kevin!

I’m ordering an extra shelf just like this! Thank you Kevin👍
Pretty good system for keeping "an eye" on everything.
Love the kitchen racks. And cardboard boxes can be cut to fit the racks. Love the muffin pan also.
great video Kevin. i am diy'er and have torn down 4 bikes that i have owned, one thing that i do is have a big piece of cardboard that i can set the bolts, nuts on. i document what they are for, and even write the wrench size with it to help me putting stuff back together.. i will at times also write the torque specs since i am usually using the manual to take it apart. this approach makes sure that i have put all the necessary pieces back on the bike
Have you ever made a video touching on properly aligning an engine in a frame? I'm a younger tech from Forsyth county Georgia.
I’d like to see that also
I havent yet but thats one ill add to the list. Thanks.

Hey Kevin, great subject, had one of my bikes tuned at Rob’s he had those racks on the wall of his Dyno, they are a nice design

Thats some good tips Kevin

Great video Kevin. As you mentioned in draining the tank completely, is there a chance of rust developing and would you store it with a little bit of stabilizer in it?
What kind of primer do you use on cleaned bolts before applying loctite?
how do you keep track of your 10mm sockets ? LOL
I didn’t see any protection for the bottom of the fuel tank
Looks like it’s just sitting on the metal rack
I fing hate muffin tins, im a zip lock bag or tupperware guy. I put all the hardware with the components or cases they belong to.I also work on a wide variaty of things, bikes, quads, snowmobile ect ect. like those bread racks though
✨
Shouldn’t you have something soft under the blue tank? Looks like it’s just sitting on a metal rack.
Muffin tins ?!?! LOL !! Up north here they’re Cupcake Pans. 😂
It’s only 100 pounds per rack when they’re on the casters it is way more when they are on the solid mount pedestals… Just so you know
Impeccable 🫡👍I've got muffin tops😂
