    My dad didn’t let us kids in the shop with him. He’d say weren’t old enough. We never got to find out how old we needed to be. He died when we were 9 & 12. Both of us ended up with woodworking as a hobby, self taught, of course. So, you let those kids in the shop all you want and as long as they want to continue going out there. You’re making more than projects, you’re making memories.

    Both my son and my daughter helped me in the shop and other places. When I started my business my son at 11 worked with me on jobs on weekends or holidays. He became a great, very knowledgeable technician highly in demand by our customers. It's sad that today too few children have the opportunity my son and I had. My daughter decided it really wasn't for her so we went and raced microds and micros sprints for many years.

    Great idea regardless of whose it is. My friend you know how I feel about our children in the shop. It doesn't get any better than making memories with our children. When you think about how much time we spend in the shop we would miss a great deal of time with them if we didn't include them in our world. I can tell you for sure, when you get older you will be glad you did. I smile many times a day because I kept her in my world no matter where it was, but especially the shop. Thank you my friend for sharing your world with me.

  • @robertharris8106

    A great video as usual. One thing with the two magnets sticking together though, before mounting them stick them together and mark the faces that mate together so you know which way round they should go. It would be more than a bit annoying to find that, instead of clicking together nicely, they repel each other.
    As for Kids in the shop? Mine (2 boys one girl) are now all grown but when they were smaller I encouraged them to make things with hand tools and as they got older introduced them to power tools. Two years ago (almost to the day) they helped me build my workshop at the end of my garden. All Wood construction and it took about a week to complete, that was a really great feeling. Teach them to respect the tools (and the damage they can do to themselves if they make a mistake) and they will hopefully grow to make and repair things instead of making do with shop bought items & throwing everything away as soon as it doesn't work quite right.

    Good job Chris. That's a GREAT solution for that door. As for the hindsite being 2020, one could always put some PVC pipes along the walls for any future wire pulls etc. prior to spraying. The spray foam is the way to go ESPECIALLY when you get a $1K savings. Look at all the tools you can buy for a grand. Thanks for the video! !! !!!

    That was a great solution to a real problem on that door. Another question I have is: are (did) you install any ceiling fans to circulate the air? Not talking air filtration, just moving the air inside. FYI, This video reminds me about the time, when I was about your age, I built a large building (60'x100') for my shop. It was auto repair not woodworking back then. cant wait to see your next improvement. I may not always comment, but I do always watch. Keep it up.

  • @lewiscrocker938

    it's funny how I came across this video while looking for brush seals for the top and sides of my roll up doors. My shop is 30 ft x 50 ft x 16 ft walls and is metal as yours (Butler). When it was built I had 3 inch insulation installed on walls and roof, and I also framed the walls and paneled them. I have 3 roll up doors and skylights. The doors are some what insulated but doesn't seem to do much. Living in the mountains in Northern California it gets upwards of 115 degrees during the summer and 20 degrees in the winter. The roll up doors are the big problem. I have a 10 x 12, 10 x 10, and 10 x 8 set of doors. It seems I have a very similar idea to what you did. The 10 wide by 12 high is a bit of a problem. I will be using this door a lot. So my idea is I am going to use 2 inch hard foam panels with aluminum on one side and as you did cut 3 pieces of equal width 5 ft. high and use bolt on magnets (Ace Hardware) to attach to the door at the lower portion of the door. These will stay on the door all the time. On the top I will build a 7 ft x 5 ft frame work to attach the top pieces (to seal the top of the door) in a 2 door hinged set up (5 ft wide each) so when I need to open the door all I do is swing the top 2 foam framed doors open on each side and roll up the door. This will allow me to roll the door up 7 ft. and not have to remove any panels. If I have to go higher I just remove the lower panels off the door. I hope this works LOL P. S. I too installed 2 two ton mini splits for heating and cooling in the shop. I wish I could figure out how to put curtains or shields on the skylights when it's direct sunlight, a lot of heat comes through these panels. Great job and it's great to get the kids involved in the shop activities. Have a great day.........

    I do a majority of my work after my kids are in bed, but if during the day they like being out there. I'll typically invite them out when I'm doing assembly or glue ups or finish, something that's not cut-intensive. They loooove playing with the scraps and using the dust collector. I let em join in on cutting board finishing, too - they think it's finger painting ;) It's tough to teach them to not distract dad while making a cut, but they've gotten better at it, and I typically only do short, quick cuts with them there (5 and 3 yo right now).

    I want to insulate my roll up door but have the insulation attached to the door so I don't have to deal with the extra step of putting it in place.
    Within the next year I am going to remove the felt strips and adhere a layer of Reflectix double bubble insulation to the inside. Is there any reason you think that won't work? I was thinking the thickness of the double bubble is about the same as the felt so the diameter of the roll won't grow by too much when it is rolled up. Fingers crossed...

    I pride myself on being very much an "outside the box" kind of thinker when it comes to problem solving - I am an electronics engineer so I guess I need to be. HOWEVER, that is THE BEST idea I have seen for using magnets & foam board ... EVER.
    Also, I am literally just about to replace my space consuming (can't fit wall cupboards!!) up and over garage door with a roller door and as I live above 54°N in North Yorkshire it gets BLOODY COLD in winter! So, guess what I'll be doing as soon as it's swapped? 🤔😁😁 Only 7 x 7 for me too! Think I'll use some Celotex though (PIR board, R-7, or R-10 per inch with stabilised 3/4 airgap!!). 25 mm should do it and currently on offer at £15 per 8x4 ... Yay! I'll only need 2 panels, RESULT!!
    Thanks for the great idea!

    Chris, great job along with your shop assistant. I am glad to see how you make this a family affair, getting your artistic wife involved. Before you said anything about her putting her handy work in, I was thinking you could simply paint the panels a preferrable color. Perhaps semi-gloss or satin white, so it brightens the space for filming. Either way, you always make it fun, entertaining and you conduct yourself in a wholesome manner. That is always enjoyable to watch. Keep it up!

    Sprayed foam in a pole barn and insulated doors are great in northern latitudes too. Professionally applied, it stops air infiltration. With a slab-on-grade floor and the doors and windows kept closed, the shop stays cool until late July. Then, with screened windows open at the top of 12' walls at night, the warmest air rises to escape and cool air cascades into the work area so that typical shop temperatures at 7 AM are in the mid 70s, never more than the low 80s. With the windows kept closed throughout periods of 95 to 105 degree days, the inside temperature rises no more than to the mid 80s. At this location in Wyoming, nighttime temperatures in the summer typically fall into the 70s or even 60s. Work station fans keep the hottest periods comfortable. Keeping the doors closed and the windows screened keeps out the birds and neighborhood cats both of which had previously caused problems. During periods of wintertime temperatures averaging 10 degrees, it takes less than a cord of wood to keep a 1,800 square foot shop's temperatures from falling below the mid 40s.

I use the 2" when I need to break down plywood and had thought that they would be great, but keeping them up there what my question - magnets!!! Going to order some tonight. What do you do about the air gap at the top of the door, or is yours so small it does not matter? Keep up with the videos and have fun this children. They are cute. I am at the grandchild stage and have many memories of mine.

    You can use the 12x12 inch foam squares that are used in studios for sound they work great and you can still roll the door up and down and they don't come off if you use spray heavy duty glue and if one does u just spray and put if back up and u don't have to take it on and off

    If you spray it with paint, make sure it's intumescent paint. It will cost you about double what regular latex paint does. It will protect it from fire and sparks though. I learned the hard way that when adding latex paint to the foam and you take fire to it, it will go up in flames. I had to go back and respray everything. And believe me when you slop latex on the foam it will burn. I had a fire marshal show me. We cut out a 1' square and lit it on fire. It was a costly mistake for me in a 7,000 sq building.

    This is good stuff and I can relate to the dilemma. I live in Southeast Louisiana, I don't have AC in my shop yet, and my shop door is a single-car width un-insulated metal door. I insulated it with a kit that includes pre cut insulation bats that fit in each panel. It made a huge difference but the bat's keep falling out. I could tape them in but I'm thinking of using foam board instead. The magnet trick might be the way to go.
    Regarding the asthetic of the purple foam. That foam easily takes latex paint. Also, you could cover the inside face of each panel with 1/4" Luan plywood and leave it bare or paint it. Heck, if you did that, it would make one bodacious sticker wall!

    Sorry Chris, may have missed it... The few times you do open the door you simply remove the insulation first?
