Just think fellas it took a 2+ hour video of him explaining this to us. Imagine how long he spent explaining and justifying all of this to his wife.
😂😂😂
Except here, things Can be repeated tirelessly...
I'm sure getting the vasectomy was a condition lolololololol😅
It’s his business so probably very little time!
As someone else mentioned, this is my job after all so my wife was very supportive. I've lucky to have her for sure, she helped keep me sane during this grueling project.
I don't sit down and watch a 2 hr youtube video on a whim all that often. Hell of a job you fellas have done here.
Yes, but I am curious as to why the block wall was not excavated on the outside and waterproofed, on the outside rather than the inside !
What a project!!! It’s amazing to see how much happened over the span of this video.
Hi I love your content
They are very professional with their work and tools.
Watching you show up on this channel is like seeing your teacher at the grocery store... But I enjoyed the video!
@@cakesmithinc WORD hah!
YEAHHHH BABYYYYY, A TWO HOUR LONG CRAFTED WORKSHOP VIDEO! 🎉
Enjoy!
At first I thought "2 hours?! no way I am watching all of this" but I gotta say it has been very entertaining and I did end up watching everything from start to finish. Best Regards from Germany, Daniel
That's awesome, thanks for watching!
i love the Perkins brothers! it's so cool that you're friends with them!! that means you've gotta be the real deal tbh
Such a huge, and hugely satisfying, project! The front porch really elevated this building up from chop shop to a professional woodworking space. Can wait to see what projects you’ll do in the coming year.
Thanks Trish, I can't wait to continue improving the building and building projects in the new space!
Having owned a Body Shop for 50 years, seeing that old Floor pull system was a memory from way back in time. I thoroughly enjoy watching the process and the Perkins at their work.
Thank you for filming the process of renovating your shop. I really appreciate all the work you put into showing viewers how hard you work and what all goes into a huge project like this. Can’t wait to see more content once you get your shop up and going.
Thanks! The shop is definitely ready to start pumping out projects, currently working on the cabinetry for the Mercedes camper van.
I really enjoyed the overview of your 1-year-7-month renovation on your new workshop!
Well done, Sir!
Glad you liked it!
I love how detailed this is. I don't know anything about ANY of this, but I was very interested to see how you and the different crews accomplished this. Very nice work! Always cool to see this kind of thing.
I have to agree. Definitely a very interesting video. What an amazing transformation! Enjoy!
2 hours of Johnny and crew, awesome series.
Thanks so much!
Wow!!! So much time, money and your knowledge and skills went into this. You have a great shop and my full respect.
Thanks a lot, definitely a labor of love but I'm so happy with how it turned out!
This is the first time I watched a TH-cam video, that was over an hour long, I actually enjoyed watching, I loved the attention to detail where it was needed.. Great job, Love the new shop so far.. Thank you for sharing..
There's nothing more rewarding than seeing something you worked tirelessly on yourself come out great. I'm too poor to ever do something like this, but the secondhand pride I get from this content inspires future ideas. You might not need to hear this, but this kind of content (long or shorter form) is what hooks new people in. Never forget that the challenges and the learning process is what a lot of people find enjoyable, because it makes us feel more apart of the ride. Keep it up lad
I pass by this shop almost every single day on my way to my grandmother's. I have watched this video before, I always thought this place looked so familiar when I watched it for the first time. Small world!
WOW, what an awesome achievement. I also think the porch has forever changed the look and intended purpose of the shop.
Can I also give solid props to Ray. The guy just has heart, he has been pushing shit uphill with his type 1 forever but still does everything with a smile.
Thanks, the porch massively improved the curb appeal for sure. Can't wait to get it painted and also add some windows on the second level to make the front pop even more. Also, Ray is such a hard worker, same with the rest of the crew. They do the work without complaining, even when the work sucks.
@@craftedworkshop yeah that will look awesome. Would you go modern or lean to the more vintage style windows?
FEI, when re-identifying white or grey neutrals as hot wires, you need to do it everywhere the wire is accessible or visible, not just the load center. So at both ends and every j-box or pull point it runs through you need to wrap it with black or red tape, paint it, use a Sharpie, etc. That also only applies to the white or gray conductor in a cable. When you're pulling individual conductors, you can't re-identify a white or gray conductor and use it as a hot. In that case, buy more black or red THHN.
That curved wall is perfect for some nice graffiti artwork, and i am excited to see what could be done with the attic and the exterior look of the building!
I can see myself ( because I'm a lefty, too ) in many of the scenes where things were done contrary to the norm. Usually this is a more well thought-out process, sometimes not, the section of plywood scaffolding falling and almost breaking a leg comes to mind as being one! Thank God! Somebody must be living right or just extremely lucky. Now you have an excellent place to create masterpieces, as soon as you replace the Dewalt tools with Bosch!
This is one of the best made trade videos I’ve seen. Great quality videos, excellent explanations and even though I already know what it is you spell everything out and explain it concisely. This should be the golden standard for these types of videos very well done sir
This was the first time I came across one of your videos, and you earned my subscription at the part when you mentioned because you plan on giving classes later, you wanted to be sure the space was fully accessible for wheelchair users.
I love how you did the quad outlets, splitting the outlets on two separate circuits. When we renovated one of our kitchens, (I own a two family home) I have two quads at the kitchen counter, and they are both split like that.
Absolutely love what you did with the building, and truly appreciated at the end you told us how long it all took.
I started construction 38 years ago, before joist hangers were really a thing. We always used bond timber and I just never really trusted the joist hangers as much. Guess I’m old school and like the tried and true. 😂
And you’ve never seen cut nails? I never used a 2 pound hammer, all I used a 22 ounce east wing.
You have a mega space and I got some shop envy. Even though you finished about 8 months ago, just flip it and find another shop to renovate....lol. Great job!
The upside is that he can keep the Perkins crew (who I also follow) employed between jobs, that way.
@@tetedur377 😂 too true!
Hah, I think I'm good! Still have a ton left to do in the space, most notably finishing the attic space so I can start hosting classes here!
@@craftedworkshop I am sure it will be super rewarding teaching people! Good luck with everything bruh! Be well and Happy New Year!
You put a lot of effort into this video Johnny. Excellent content.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just spent 2 hrs + of my life watching this fascinating video of your shop renovation while waiting for a 4 hr 3D print of a fume extraction hose connector for the wifes fibre laser to get done and I enjoyed every minute of it. What I'd love to see is a video of your dust extraction system install. Great job to you and all the guys who helped make it happen!
First and foremost, I just want to say that this was an incredibly great video! We've seen the entire workshop transform from a dilapidated storage space into a dream workshop for us hobby carpenters. I'm really looking forward to seeing cool projects being made here!
I'm studying to become a civil engineer and I was just wondering about something; why didn't you choose to have a moisture barrier behind the studs on the east side of the building, since this was a wall with moisture issues? Another thing; if you notice that the CNC room gets a bit noisy, you might consider adding EPS/XPS insulation to reduce flanking transmission through the floor.
Anyway, I just want to say that the workshop looks fantastic and the video was informative and fun to watch!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! The closed cell spray foam acted as the moisture barrier there. That combined with the Drylok and PT lumber should mean no long term issues with moisture. I still haven't built the doors for the CNC room but good tip!
I'm not completely sure that I understand what you're suggesting for sound iso (the floor above or below?) but, I'll proffer this info. Closed cell foam board isn't usually helpful for sound. It doesn't 'absorb' sound like a fibrous or porous material does (fiberglass etc). And it has virtually no mass so it doesn't help in reflecting sound back except at high frequencies which is usually not the issue between rooms. But you're right on target wrt flanking paths. This is why sound isolation is so hard. One little gap somewhere can undermine a huge amount of cost and effort. I can almost guarantee that his doors are going to be the weak point. Any door that will not be the weak point will cost him an incredible amount of money and will not be easy to open and close. Lastly, it's not clear to me where his dust collector is going to live. With a real spindle on the CNC, the primary noise source is the DC, especially low frequency noise that is hard to isolate.
best way to mediate noise is to stop it at the board by floating the board on the studding on top of thickening. Zoning and segregating always beats just money into material to try and create utter barrier by way of force. like heck why not just go outside and start loading clay into the cavity :P
The sight of that split double topplate transition (by the capped gas line) from 2x4 to 2x6 that is unstrapped will haunt my dreams for ever.
Bro, you have some AWESOME FRIENDS!
Hey! @22:00 you lay out the green vapor barrier. That is made by Stego Industries, and is manufactured in Yakima, Washington, and I shipped them!! It's always fun to see products I recognize in the wild :D
😮 simply said, A true professional. Thanks for taking us on the ride and for sharing your knowledge as you were working on each transition.
Worth the time to watch.
Wow. That cost you 10x less than I thought it would, what an amazing project!
nice edit, great project! glad you could find a job for all essential tools, like the post level and the cutting attachment for the impact gun 😉
one remark on the drainage outside: being you I would use the excavator to dig out around the wall and add an insulation layer.
Loved watching the process and seeing the building really come together. Looks like a cool building to own and excited to see what you make in it. Nice work!
I love the long-form content!
Thanks, more to come for sure! I'm going to start editing the tiny house series soon.
Congratulations on your new shop. It was so satisfying to see the progress you made. And you also seemed to be so enthusiastic about every step!
What a fabulous build! Thanks for sharing. This gave me lots of ideas for my shop (one day)
Thanks for watching, good luck on your shop build!
My son has a 4000 plus sq ft cabinet shop here in Florida.
It is a production type shop, where he produces cabinets primarily, but also custom trim for his customers.
I cant even imagine him operating in a shop finished to the degree that this shop is.
Im assuming it will be used as a class room more so than a production type shop ?
None the less you did a very nice job on it.
I watch quite a few of the Perkins Bros. videos as well.
They are good mechanics, and that shows up in their work.
I was a home builder as well before retiring to Florida.
Yea, this is really more of a woodworking "studio" if you will, since I film my videos in the space. I will also be doing classes at some point in the future. I personally love having a well lit and clean shop though, makes me want to work in the space even more.
@@craftedworkshop Well, all the best with your new venture.
From my observations, id say that a great many of the shops on TH-cam are more of a hobby variety than they are a working variety.
All the nice tools and such showcased on the walls do make a nice backdrop.
But they arent very practical in a real world production shop.
Aside from a charging station and some type of a proper cutting setup, there isnt much else to showcase.
As production increases, and more large machinery is added in order to meet the demands, the shop layout is apt to be changed anyway.
Lumber storage also eventually becomes an issue.
First off, in order to be competitive, it needs to be bought in bulk lots, not just job lots.
That means multiple pallets of lumber and plywood being bought and stored.
That also means that most even large variety lumber racks become obsolete.
It also means that a forklift is necessary for off loading and moving lumber from place to place.
How many youtube videos show or even talk about any of that?
Congrats on the new shop, I drove by it daily for decades and it was always sad to see it in disrepair. I moved out of the area early 2020 but glad to see it being a nice useful space again.
Great video. Fantastic shop. A lot of work involved. Your going to have to build your own sign for the front of the shop now. All the best.
That's definitely on the agenda, just trying to figure out what I want to use as the material. I have a sheet of waterproof MDF that I've never had a use for, might be perfect for the sign.
Johnny: phenomenal! Top-notch content: technique, editing, materials, tools, products - incredibly impressive work.
One bit of feedback: "super". 49 times in this video: super bright, super clean cut, super consistent, 2 x super cools, super dangerous, super detail oriented, super DIY friendly, super dusty, 4 x super easys, super excited, 2 x super excitings, super fast, super fun, super funky, super handy, super hard, 2 x super heavys, super helpful, super high, 2 x super longs, 4 x super quicks, super secure, 5 x super simples, 2 x super smooths, super smoothly, super super quiet, 3 x super super simples, and a super wavy.
I really think your work is amazing - I'm a huge fan. I hope the feedback about "super" is taken positively.
Super feedback! 😂 It is funny to see my speech patterns thrown into focus when editing these all back to back with any filler removed.
Thank you for putting this all in one video! I love a full project build.
I love the long form and detailed videos, good to see the actual amount of work that goes into remodeling a house. The HGTV stuff is nuts and gives people unrealistic expectations. Keep up the good work
Congratulations 🎉So happy for you to get your dream shop! You make seriously hard work look easy. Love to see all you guys razz each other too.
Congratulations on this amazing achievement and thanks to you that inspired others by explaining simple to more complex projects and of course sharing the tool links.
Happy new year!!
Thanks, one of my big goals with this channel is to give people the courage to do things themselves. I didn't know how to do any of this when I started the channel, I've learned it all along the way. It's amazing what research and working with other talented people can teach you.
@@craftedworkshop but I think without a doubt not only what you teach is how you do it in a calm, relaxed, and kind way that makes the whole thing enjoyable. Thanks again Jonny for this.
im so glad theres a supercut! I've been trying to watch the whole series for a while but I keep dropping it halfway through, but now I'm committed
I've watched this series as it progressed, and then I watched this monster overview.
And I'm still impressed and jealous.
Great work!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
52:59 put both line wires on the same side huh...
Looks great man good job.
French drain the outer wall and replace soil with gravel, that building will never be dry unless you sort out the external issues.
Awesome video, and even more so awesome shop rebuild. Love the longer format. Cheers
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Dude, I'm exhausted just watching this video! What a lot of work!
No kidding, I realized why I'm always so tired when I was editing this video, hah!
That's a fantastic demolition and construction team you have put together. The volume cleared and redeveloped is huge. A superb build.
What a great workshop and it was great to see the Perkins Crew helping out. There a great set of lads. Thanks for sharing this journey.
You need to add some drip flashing on the sides of your porch so that water isn't running off the short flashing on to the rafters ❤
Yeeoow I screamed when the rack fell down and aboout got you. I have enjoyed your rehab videos and I wish I had a team of guys like yours. Looking forward to more videos.
Fantastic video! Loved the detail you went into
Thanks a lot!
You renovated the old factory into a wonderful store
Thanks!
Thank you for filming the process of renovating your shop.
I have an old 5k sq ft cinder block building that was an auto body business, and it was in terrible shape. It's still pretty rough but my partner has put in a ton of work to get it in a way that has allowed him to start a small woodshop and some table top CNC stuff. The first order of business for me was arranging the local electric company to get the electrical NEC compliant. It's been a really positive experience and my passion only grows as we make progress.
Your video covers so many things that we are dealing with! Thank you!! I also really appreciate everyone's use of PPE. Our electrical panel had old screw in fuses! Even a old solid copper or two in place of the first 🙄
The front porch roof did wonders to improve the look of the building.
Visually the reverse TACO is beautiful to look at
All You Guys Are Professional And Awesome Sharing Your Craft. I Wish I Could Hire Them.
Glad to see everyone wearing respirators - that was duuusssssssstttttttttttyyyyyyy!
No kidding!
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
Thanks!
Took 2 days but watched it all…I did watch the other videos you posted but watching it twice all in one video was nice!!! Really enjoyed this shop renovation series and it looks so nice man!!! Happy new year 🤙
That’s awesome, thanks for watching the whole thing! Happy New Year to you too!
Amazing restoration and video. So great to watch it take shape and see all the talented people doing it. If I may, I would only suggest adding some first aid boxes and fire suppression/extinguishers here and there for safety. Thanks for sharing all of this with us and congratulations!
oh no way perkins brothers they're so cool i watch their builds every night i go to bed lul
it looks like a cool shop, you did a great job with all the work. always good to see the perkins crew working, too.
Good on repurposing the lumber ! Prices today are absolutely insane !
I know this is old, but gutter guards are worth their weight in gold.
I watched most of the videos originally but I am home for break and was doing some drawing and just relaxing and had this playing in the background.
Yeah, this is really huge and it's very impressive.
I also did the same with my 50 year old workshop which was build 1970, so I totally know that feeling. Keep it up 👍👍
You have made a fantastic job., and now you have a beautiful workshop . I dream of a workshop like you have
Thanks!
I don't know why, but I spent more than two hours to watch ALL the video until the end as It was a thriller to see the final result! Congrat and greetings from Florence Italy 😍 Thanks for sharing all this big job!
Awesome to see the Perkins brothers in this project. They seem like knowledgeable good dudes
I ❤❤ the long form....so much great information. Also, I enjoy live talking. I'm a little tired of voiceovers & time lapse😊 yes I know that's easier, but there's nothing like tool noises in live taking while it's going on. Thanks🏆 BTW we watched the 2:10:34 seconds. It's many great moments...saw dust slow-mo..👌. Sorry, I'm shutting up.
I am so glad to see that you were careful with any deconstruction so you could re-use material. Most DYI shows on TV drive me crazy when they get out their sledge hammers and wreck perfectly good wood and send it to the landfill.
Looking great chaps I always like watching people make their new workshops a special you guys in states 🇺🇸 as we do a few things different over here in the uk 🇬🇧 l really enjoy your video can’t wait to see more 😊👍👏👏
Personally i love these long videos
Thanks for sharing the process!
So happy for you!!! Congrats on a job well done and enjoy your new space!!
Great job, will be a really nice shop
Thanks!
... I can't believe I just stumbled across this feature-length YT video and watched the entire thing.
Excellent project and great crew. Great job keeping this whole project interesting. Subscribed.
Haven't finished it, might later, but I swear watching this vid put dust in my eye lol.
Well that was 2 hours of my time.... well spend :D awesome project!
Loved seeing your birds. The colours were so vivid. I look forward to the day when you can have a fire in the fireplace to keep you warm. One more thing: we have really cold weather here in Canada. It is -15°C without the windchill.
Phew the way I was screaming at my phone, watch out! When that pallet rack started tipping at you. Close call wow. Great video love it all
I cannot stop watching this video it’s so amazing to see the whole process of rebuilding
Wow! You gotz some energy!! Great video. Well done shop!
This project took a tremendous amount of coordination and skill.
My questions are
1 Where is the bathroom and water source.
2 food? Who cooked all the food that these men needed to keep themselves fueled.
It certainly did! There is an interior space with two bathrooms and a kitchen, the previous owner of the building lived here.
Beyond amazing. Enjoy the space!
Nicely done, an german electrician here, we have here 230V for normal household devices and 400V 3-Phase power for heavier machinery, then you swap the external conductor they ar running in the wrong direction. Normally we have clockwise rotating field so then you swap 2 wires, you have couterclockwise rotating field, so have fun with that
Really Great video! Really cool to see the Process. Thanks! God bless 🙏
Watched the entire thing.... way cool dude. Congratulations on the completion of the dream shop.
Sheesh even down to the craftsmanship of the welds! Quality team professional teamwork. Glad I was able to watch and learn how it was done!
Tip from someone installing those types of drop ceiling tile quite often, use Mr.Clean magic earaser and rub it dry on the stain...itll make most of them go away. If not, sprinkle some baby powder onto a dry paint brush and dab it on the tile. It should hide it and blend nicely with the rest of the tile. Great job non the less !!!
Great tip! Thanks for that.
@@craftedworkshop my pleasure mate, i love what you do !
I actually gasped out loud when that shelf end fell towards you! ❤️🇨🇦
That looks amazing, gentlemen ! Love the rustic wood look 😊
I don’t know what he’s talking about but I see things happening and I love it😂
