Howdy! Join me for a quick discussion on shop layouts and what I found to be the best methods for keeping it flexible. We go through a couple of different ways of organizing and moving around toolboxes, workbenches, and desks.
Check out this quick video on how I keep my tools clean, dry, and protected in my shop for almost free! I have been doing it this way for about a decade and it works really well.
My Secret to Super Cheap Tool Storage
Check out this video on the system I came up with for hanging anything around the shop and move them without having to make any holes.

Continuing the adventure on finishing out the shop. We painted the house to match, started hanging insulation, added more drainage, an inadequate portable air conditioner and spotted one (tiny) wild animal.

I got a 2015 Ford Expedition EL about 6 months ago. I absolutely love it but ever since I got it, I have had nowhere to put my tools that I usually carry with me. Most of the solutions I found were either really expensive or not practical for what […]

Despite being on the struggle bus this year, I have actually made a lot of progress! Just about finished framing, plowed some giant snow drifts, broke some things, fixed some things, and got the exterior lighting finished.

Death by 1,000 details. We have reached the point where I am doing a lot but it doesn’t look like much. Check out the progress for updates on framing, dirt work, and finishing up a couple of projects.
