Yes agreed! Also the build out of the property, new house, inside trim detail, etc… you could almost make a second channel dedicated to just this property
When you make labels, make 2. Put one on the container and one on a business card that you put in the container. When you're checking stock, pull the labeled business cards for everything you need to order and you've already got your list. Replace the card when you restock. You can also leave the cards towards the bottom of the pile at your restock point. When you reach the card, pull it, and place them in a set location nearby for when you need to reorder. It helps to use a brightly colored card; maybe even a plastic one. You could get fancier with adding the mfg or a QR code to the place you buy them from. Toyota calls this a kanban system.
Another good place to look for nuts/bolts is an industrial fastener supplier. fastenal is the big one around but I use a local one that has way better pricing than anywhere else, even online.
Nothing worse than having to buy something you have but can’t find. My old shop was 10k sqft. Really try to figure out steps, walking steps, The further you step the less efficient you are. Looking great Spencer!
8/21/23..much enjoy your channel, your new shop, your up-beat 'let's work' attitude & most often (on a job) your great teaching ability. All great stuff! Stay safe & carry on!💪👍😊
Spencer have you seen Festool's new miter saw with the moving fence that collapses to whatever angle you trace? You basically use it in tandem with a manual angle gauge (the type that you lock with the wing nut) and then take the angle gauge over to the miter saw. The blade stays planted and you do not move it. The fence unlocks and both fences move evenly to the angle around the planted blade. You then lock the fence and then you're good to cut. Since the fence is whats moving to conform to the angle you traced, you don't rotate the blade. If you're doing a double miter (2 pieces joining together to make the angle of what you traced), you can cut both pieces and not have to rotate the blade or flip the workpiece over to cut the 2nd piece. Probably gonna be the future of miter saw fences b/c it keeps people from having to figure out what angle the miter saw blade has to set on. There's a lot of guys that just do not understand that stuff and this kind of saw will make it dummy proof.
Spencer what you really need are drawer cabinets like Lista cabinets. You can store fasteners deep in draws than those small parts organizers. You can just build your own drawers. For mine, I just use 1x4 & 1x6 for the drawer walls and 3/8 plywood for the drawer bottoms. The drawers were 36" wide by 24" deep. You can store a lot of fasteners & other parts. Schaller corporation sells various side drawer bins to store small parts. Another option for shop storage are roller cabinets that you can move around in your shop. for instance you could set up a roller cabinet with routers, router bits & jigs, or another roller cabinet for pocket hole jigs, fasteners, self centering drills, hole saws, etc. Another cabinet with biscuit\domino cutters & inserts. This way you can pull out the roller cabinet with everything you need for a task, and when your done, you just put the roller cabinet back & out of the way.
There is working hard and working smart, I’m glad to see a person working smart, making such great videos. Best finish carpentry videos on TH-cam. Thanks
The space behind your organizers could be used for overstock. When you get a box that would over fill the bin, you could store the box behind in the space. Just have to put a reminder in the bin to let you know it is back there. Really looking forward to the shop buildout. I can only imagine how excited you must be to fill the space. ***(Should have watched to the end when you told us how you buy your fasteners.) My bad.
How do u thing he would get to that space ? When the bins are full that thing would be heavy even when a few are empty. If u tip it a little the bins would slide out making a mess. Ben there. I joined the carpenters union when I was !9 still there at 86. Great chanel'
Congratulations on the new shop. I started watching your videos 5 years ago. They gave me a decent chunk of the inspiration I needed to start my own company. I've been in business 4 years now. Wishing you the best. Andy
I have done something similar with Pack-out. That way I can wheel them around and also fill a Packout "day box" with the individual containers as needed.
When I was about 12 (6+ decades ago) my dad gave me a smaller version of those drawer organizers. I loved it then, and I'm gonna love these larger versions now! Thanks for reminding me, and thank you for the Amazon links. And I do use my Brothers labeler often. It must be very efficient because the batteries last for years! Lawrence
I'd love to see how you label your Systains and Packout cases. That's what I really struggle with. This was a great video too, always nice to see a clean, well organized shop. A guy who cares for his tools, cares about his work!
Great content and tips! Would like to see more as you build out your shop. Do not forget to also include your new home as you plan and build it. Hope to see more soon! I know it takes time to build out a new shop and it is great that you are taking the time to bring us along with you.
Sorry Spencer, I hate to be Comment Connie today. Consider painting that OSB plywood before you get that storage room gets packed. White walls will help with your light diffusion.
I wish I was the one that said "Organization comes through visibility", regardless it rings true. The Akro-Mils company has been around since 1946, same as me😁. Anyway, thanks for posting this! Don't be surprised if you call several more audibles while doing this.
Not only am I seriously jealous I am truly happy for you. One thought that I just added to my shop and house is solar panels. It looks like that building can use a ton of energy.
You should pimp your Amazon quick product review videos more - they are awesome and I kinda found them by mistake. Thanks for taking the time to video and post those reviews - super super helpful.
Wow. This is a great video or what I wish you had put it up about 6 months ago. I have been building cabinets and drawers from palette lumber and scrap wood for all my screws, bolts, and nails. They take forever to build. Additionally. every shelf and partition is routed with a dado. I work on a cabinet an hour here and an hour there. Still, they are not perfect. I should have just bought those cabinets you have. They use space much more efficiently. I may still. Basically, I have no system and needed one badly. Sometimes I would look for an hour for a screw that I needed. Congratulations on your shop. It looks like it will be a well oiled machine. I think you could call it a Super Shop.
As you can see, the 64 drawer organizers start to sag when you load them up with enough bolts, nuts and washers. For my electronics components I use the 64-drawer organizers in similar shelving to you. But for my workshop, I went with the smaller 16-drawer organizers which don't tend to sag as much. You can also alleviate a bit of the sag in the middle by grinding off the little legs that make the cabinet lean backwards, or adding in some shims in the middle if you don't want to modify the cabinet. Also, if you've got a 3D printer, there's some STL files you can download from the usual places that will sub-divide those drawers rather than using the dreadful divider tab that Akro supplies. And you can also print custom drawers, then take a pair of side snips and cut out some of the vertical supports to get in large drawers, though if you are storing heavy bits of metal, I am not sure how that will work. Slick storage system on those larger bins for the dry wall screws. I don't use that many screws in my builds, but I stared at that enormous bulk box and thought "It comes in pints?!?" Lord of the Rings moment.
I agree with your using wall space for storage of supplies and materials and hand power and unpower tools and walkways this changed my workshop over night by putting all power fixed tools in center/middle areas. Utilities were centralized elec, air, vacuum, etc. infeed and outfeed was maximized access to these power tools was enhanced for service cleaning and set ups. Dust removal was also enhanced as a single large line was run with seperate smaller lines gated for each tool. It started when I moved my mitre station to center of my shop. Of course a larger shop started the process for me as I finally had the space to use for maximum work efficiency of use and not maximizing for square feet utilization. Ray Stormont
This is soooo awesome. Thank you for letting us know how you're doing all of these things. So smart and so organized. Thank you. Cheers from Wisconsin.
I install roughly 36 cabinet sets per year, from a custom shop. Typical set is at least 2 or more colors. We use Sashco's "exact color match" caulking . Nothing worse than 7 similar green colored caulk tubes,and not knowing which one you need. 3years prior I bought the P-touch labeler ,and couldn't be happier. It gets used primarily for above reason, but also many other uses as well. I do recommend eneloop rechargeable batteries, to keep the green electronics killer away. Running after fastners,plumbing fittings is the #1 time killer...whether at home or on-site. If you can see or find it,if you have everything you need,if its readily accessible ...it will get done faster at work,and a higher chance of it being completed at home lol.
Great video, so happy for you that you have the building of your dreams! Label makers are the best 👊 Going to buy the Phomemo (I've got a brother P-Touch).
Love your channel and videos! I've learned a ton from you. When I lived out west I exclusively used Big Timber brand construction screws. I recently moved to Alabama and was disappointed when I couldn't find them and had to settle for GRK. So much so that didn't even finish using the GRK's I had purchased and ordered the Big Timber online. In my opinion they are that much better. They have cabinet head and flat (bugle) head. I buy 5 lb containers but you can get them in a large box too. They're worth a look. Thanks for what you do!
Really like what your doing to organize your shop. I like it so much I've saved this video to come back to once my new house is completed (in about 4 weeks) and my new 14'x32.5' woodworking shop is ready to move into. I'm sure I'll be using some of these techniques to get my shop up and organized. What's your technique for managing all those odds and end fasteners we accumulate from extra bolts, nuts and screws you get around the house? I just toss them all into a junk bin and sort through them when I need some odd part that I might just have a fastener for, interested in learning what others do.
When it comes to nut, bolt, washers stuff like 6-32 thru 1/2" I find it easier to stack those pieces in the same column of pull outs. So 6-32 bolt, below that is 6-32 nut, below that is 6-32 washer.
Great content; wonderful descriptions and suggestions. I use the Brother Cube Plus (there's an app for your PC/Mac) to label back sides of Electrical Cover Plates and various wiring/cables. I'm now a subscriber, and will go back and view previous episodes. Thanks!
It is an exciting time for your business, Spenser. Great video. Are you using spreadsheets to track the shop setup expenses? I know you used QB in the past. Your balance sheet is growing every day!
I don’t know that it would help you because you are labeled so well. I have some clear trays like yours with a light behind the tray container to help light the trays. Great video!
Hi Spencer, I’ve always been curious about how you organize your various nail gun fasteners for taking to the job site. I’ve not come across any commercially available organizers that seemed well suited for this particular purpose. Thanks, David
Spencer, I have a question about mitering panel molding style picture frames for a coffered ceiling. I was using CA glue and the joints seem to be snapping as I was nailing them to the 1x6 on the ceiling. Is that something where I should be using hyper glue? I’m just afraid that the joints will now separate after I paint, or do you suggest I pull them off and glue them again with hyper? I love your channel!
The issue you need to tackle is inventory control for your consumables. If you start off with 100 nuts, bolts, washers, etc.... and use 3 here, 4 there and 6 somewhere else, it's only a matter of time before you open the tray to get 6 more for a project and you find it only has 3 in the drawer. Need to have... and USE, some type of inventory control process. 🙂
I never have screws that are close in size next to each other. Be it in storage or in my job site boxes. I've had a couple instances where a slightly larger screw dropped into the wrong bin and I didn't notice and ended up putting a screw through the face of my millwork😯😩😡.
I used to totally be into these for storage and organization back in the day. For me they became a spot for hardware to die or disappear or dropped one to many drawers on the ground, so I moved on to many different things over the years. Sadly none that are as cheap as this option was. Will be interesting to see if in the future you are still using or not. Turning around and pulling them out of the cabinet behind you is a lot different than going to a completely different room to get them. Although I am sick in the head with OCD so I dig what you are doing here with this setup regardless of my thoughts on them. LOL
Please, can you provide me with the brand of your knee pad?? It's not related to this video, but I can't find the one that you spoke about it. I urgently need a new good one
Where do you order your grk from? I've been buying the 10lb boxes from the big box stores but I buy probably 150lbs a year between the different sizes I use
Mostly either Home Depot or Amazon depending on who has the better price. Unfortunately there isn't one place that always seems to have a fair price, so I always price check before ordering the big bulk boxes.
I know this is hyper anal, but my buddy is a cabinet maker and has a similar set up with barcodes, scanner and inventory software so he knows exactly what he has on hand and how much by simply glancing at his phone. May not work for you but it works for him. Cheers
I started doing a dedicated fastener “area” in my shop… I got overwhelmed about 50% of the way through and lost motivation and now there are stacks of empty organizers sitting on the floor in front of it 😂🤣😂
Dam! U had me fooled!!! Here I thought you were using masking tape and your penmanship was as good as your carpentry! All this time u had a label maker! 😂😂😂 I have the one from HD for small labels but they aren’t near large enough for the packouts. OY! Now I have to buy one of those… I write like a dam doctor 🤦♂️
I hope this turns into a 100 part series, I’m here for every episode!
Yes agreed! Also the build out of the property, new house, inside trim detail, etc… you could almost make a second channel dedicated to just this property
I'm super excited for him and his family. What a beautiful property with so much potential.

Another good place to look for nuts/bolts is an industrial fastener supplier. fastenal is the big one around but I use a local one that has way better pricing than anywhere else, even online.
I should have mentioned Fastenal. I just orders some stuff from them that I couldn't find locally.
On the smaller plastic storage drawers consider hot gluing a sample screw to the face of the drawer for faster reference.
Dude this is an awesome tip! Thanks you sir!

Am I the only one that prefers Spax over GRK. Especially for cabinet screws (pan head wall cabinet type). They have much better thread.
It's one of those things where I just started using all GRK and never got off that wagon. They seem a little more readily available near me than spax.
What do you do for all the hardware you keep stocked in the trucks?
Most of that is in the large bins that we pull from to restock.
Please, can you provide me with the brand of your knee pad?? It's not related to this video, but I can't find the one that you spoke about it. I urgently need a new good one

Where do you get the giant GRK boxes???????
Amazon and Home Depot
Where do you order your grk from? I've been buying the 10lb boxes from the big box stores but I buy probably 150lbs a year between the different sizes I use
Mostly either Home Depot or Amazon depending on who has the better price. Unfortunately there isn't one place that always seems to have a fair price, so I always price check before ordering the big bulk boxes.
Maybe ask R&R the pole barn guy.
Have to look out for an farm supply store😂
3:19 Question. What is your plan for open space behind the organizer pods? Can you double stack one in front of another?
Sadly it will probably be dead space.
I know this is hyper anal, but my buddy is a cabinet maker and has a similar set up with barcodes, scanner and inventory software so he knows exactly what he has on hand and how much by simply glancing at his phone. May not work for you but it works for him. Cheers
I started doing a dedicated fastener “area” in my shop… I got overwhelmed about 50% of the way through and lost motivation and now there are stacks of empty organizers sitting on the floor in front of it 😂🤣😂
Where are you buying GRK fasteners in bulk?
HD and amazon.
Dam! U had me fooled!!! Here I thought you were using masking tape and your penmanship was as good as your carpentry! All this time u had a label maker! 😂😂😂
I have the one from HD for small labels but they aren’t near large enough for the packouts. OY! Now I have to buy one of those… I write like a dam doctor 🤦♂️
You should go to your local county and have them change the the name of the street that your shop is on to spencerville road.
Do you ever have issues with your labels peeling off? That seems to be something I fight.
Not so far.
Try cleaning the mounting surface with isopropyl, and apply as much pressure as you can with a roller or putty knife.
