Hey u should paint ur Light pull black out side ur shop ??
Good job with the ripped pants.
I might have waited a day or two to add the extra screws. Let the wood get acclimated to the a/c in the shop. Looks nice, definitely a big upgrade
How much did you have to spend in lumber to make the grumpy commenters go away?? Looks sharp bro, maybe black out the under sides of the lofts too, really do away with all the visible wood
@@clancy4freeswag562 it’s was like $550. To be honest it wasn’t even for the grumpy commenters. I just started looking at the load chart and realized that the wood limited us dramatically. Especially on the larger loft. And then on the large loft you could see it bow a bit when you stepped between the beams. Joint or not. So for my own confidence it was worth it. I was worried about things like shelves putting too much weight on the feet and punching a hole through.
As a contractor of 16 years… thank you for fixing the floor. Tongue and groove would eventually fail become funky in those spots and this will never happen now. It’s worth the money and the time for the piece of mind for sure brother
I was cringing when he was decking the loft. Glad he fixed it too.
Wasn't broken.how the instructions tell ya to do it.
It wasn't going anywhere.i have 4 of them.he did it by the instructions.i have 4 of them and mine are still up and they have alot of weight on them.
THANK YOU for fixing that floor Taylor You're one of my favorite youtubers I would hate to see you fall
@Itsthemlp nothing wrong with it did it how it's supposed to be done whole reason it comes with thick brackets.
Put your compressor outside in a small shed
Keeps the noise down in the shop and get extra room
Worked great in my shop
It’s been in a shed for 20+ years
Nice and quiet inside
I second this. He should also look into a dryer setup.
@@baconpop4388I came here to say both. Actually if you build a correct intercooler between the compressor head & the tank, a dryer is unnecessary. It’ll also make the tank last MUCH longer.
i believe he doesn't have it outside so that he's not bothering his neighbors.
I concur. Mines been outside for 14 years. I made a home build drier setup using a left over trans cooler.
@@sirmonkey1985if you build the shed right it wont bother the neighbors. Acoustic foam is dirt cheap online and is what i did
Intereting to see how much bigger the shop look's with those two sructures added. I think 75%of car people wants a settup similar to what you have done here Taylor, nice work
99% of middle class car guys want this setup.
Tip: Staple the edge of the carpet right in front of the stairs. The constant stepping (scuffing your shoes) will pull the carpet up from the glue.
I’m telling you. Hang a bunch of speed equipment banners everywhere. Put some neon signs up. And it’s gonna look just like a fast and furious shop. Straight Outta one of the movies. It’s already in Florida!
just so you know when he referenced wanting his garage to be kinda like fast and furious it was from Hahn's garage in Tokyo Drift aint nobody want anything to look like something from fast and furious 2.
+1 on neon signs!
@@Boga217you just did what you told him not to do lmao. Good job
@@eliweatherford4154 he deleted his comment and what the heck was he talking about telling someone what to do I was just saying in general nobody likes anything from that movie because its all about cheesy looks
Few suggestions. As somebody who has a bedroom/living room in my shop, get a cheapo cordless vacuum for your hangout, mine is carpet and it gets dusty quick. 2nd, insulate the floor below your hangout. Having a compressor roaring under you while chilling is annoying. 3rd, look on marketplace or check your local box store building supply for discount linoleum floor for your storage loft. Nothing worse than having a leaking trans/engine/diff upstairs and fluid staining the roof and dripping on your workspace.
i was just gonna say this
why would he chill with compressor on, also insulating an open loft wouldnt do anything at all since the sound would be echoing off every wall regardless. also linoleum would cause a chance of slipping while up there, we dont need him falling off the loft onto the floor below. It painted and double layered plywood not OSB, he would have to put a 55gal drum up there and stab a hole in it to have issues with leaking below
I like these suggestions. It sounds like something Taylor would be excited about. I'm sure that when hes done with the other important wiring with the shop he could fine-tune some of that stuff you suggested. Be great for content as well as fix his shop up. I love these kinds of videos where his shop gets better and better.
@@MMORPG87 Because sound is not only audible but also emits vibrations if you didn’t know. He’s not going to be the only one in his shop and even if he is, me shutting off my compressor when I take a break is the last thing on my mind. If Josue is there or his girlfriend is there, somebody is going to be in the loft if he’s in the shop. And if you’re bling enough to not see oil/trans fluid on a Linoleum floor you probably shouldn’t have climbed up there. It’s there to catch a leak before it ruins the floor or anything under it while you’re not watching. You clean it up before you try to see if you can walk through it. If you think it would take 55 gallons you’ve never had a leak inside a house with a basement, very little makes a big mess.
@@Beardest_Fishing all great suggestions! Insulation wise not really an issue just because the compressor is only ever turned on if I’m mounting tires or blowing stuff off. So it’s rare that it runs and it’s pretty quiet. But everything else is a great idea!
Starting a petition for Taylor to paint R2 blue so that it actually looks like R2 😂
r2 is white
Whatever nerd you know what they meant! 😊😊@StanleyKubick1
I like your leather work boots, what are they??
R2 wrap would be sick
the powers that be woulld probably sue him and take it and put it in the next trash movie
Watching you build your house and shop is probably more exciting then the cars to be honest man keep growing keep making the dreams come true 💪 been here since you was sharing a house
would have looked really sick if you painted the wood on the bottom as well before putting up the lights! Dont think the black would be too dark but it would make everything looks more like one unit
I agree it stands out a lot
I was just coming here to say the same thing
Awesome.... paint the underside of the floor the same grey as the shop ceilings....
I'm glad you took the time to go out on the jet boat. You work hard all the time, you gotta get some play time in too! Shop looks great, can't wait to see it all finished!
Thank you for saving my Sunday afternoon Taylor. I just love the way you re-purposed the old shop lights. It’s interesting how the space below the lofts actually looks bigger now that they’re lit. I can’t wait for the next video.
Nice work guys , should throw a 2x4 on the front edge of the storage loft to protect the edge of the plywood during loading and unloading , easily replaceable if damaged and will prevent r2 from making direct contact with the metal frame . Really glad you fixed the floor also
Metal Angle Iron would look good
might be cool to add motion sensors so the under loft lights turn on automatically as you walked under the loft
At 0:06: pants rip or am I not seeing that right? Lol
Yes hahaha
Taco bell sponsored video
Skinny jean problems 😅
My boy T.Ray gotta donk! Ass too fat for them skinny boy jeans!
Make sure when you build over the roll up door keep in mind the door grows a few inches when open. So I would space it up with a 2x4 on its side or something. Just a thought.
Firepole to slide down the storage-side would be neat and small footprint haha
I would have painted the bottom of that plywood. But it still looks great.
i would paint the underneath of the wood black
The lights do give great illumination, but personally I'd add a smoked glass/plastic shield in front of them to soften the light a bit
Crazy idea for the lighting, and I'm not sure how possible it is, but for the underlighting of the lofts could you fit a diffusion panel between the beams that have lights? It could rest on the lip of the beams. So, effectively, it will look like one giant light fixture akin to something you'd find in a kitchen, the diffusion panel will make the lighting less harsh on the eyes/camera, the light will be more evenly distributed than it already is, and it would look clean as hell.
edit: just saw you test the lights, ignore my idea, they look great as they are lol
What a transformation with this project, not only with the total transformation of you and everything you’ve done since the single car garage you worked out of at the shared house in Orlando, then to Ben’s, now your forever dream home and garage.
You don't have to get rid of the outlet, just add a metal box on top and add a light switch
You should make a boom arm and bolt it to loft, then mount an extra light to it and you can use it to flood light over your main workbench and retract when not in use.
A pull down ladder would be pretty cool on the right side loft.
He could weld a small extension from the edge and put an attic door with pull cord.
Firefighter pole
@@TheOnlyKontrol how to get up there with that..that's only an exit he needs up and down.
you place a sacrificial cutoff piece into the groove of the board you're trying to fit and knock it into position with a persuader, to get a perfect fit
I was going to comment this too
I have to say the grass in the beginning looks super lushes and green
Shop is looking GREAT! Take a break and let 'er rip!!!
I'm so happy to see the beef'ed up floor. Nice work Taylor. Now pack it out!
Hyped to see both sides filled up now!
Joint wise it's fine for light walking loads. We all just want you and your crew to be safe when loading up those lofts with gear!
Man, if nobody says it, even though we're all here for the car stuff, it's good to see this stuff sometime. "Learn something new every day" they say.
Oh boy, 30 sec in and I see a bed full of 3/4 sheets of tounge and groove lol
Im so glad you went with the carpet, it looks AMAZING!!!! I hope it starts together well!
A next cool project could be building a compressor house outside to reduce the noise in the shop from it. Love the videos
You could put a dimmer switch on those lights, which might help when video taping.
Taylor flexing with an R2 workbench. I love it.
As a carpenter we use 3/4 OSB plywood for our subfloors. Tounge n groove along the 8ft side of course. And roofs we use 7/16-5/8 OSB plywood non tounge n groove. Maybe more glue in the OSB whats making stronger? Lol
Shop is looking better every time I see it
Feels so good to see the progress. We've been waiting for this since the start!!
Toss some sound deadener on the underside of the metal stairs, makes it WAY more luxury feeling and sounding
The lofts are looking badass! Can't wait to see them filled up on storage and hanging out like a champ!
just had a nice evening steaks lobsters beer wine whiskey and to say goodbye to everyone and watch Taylor ray video at 1am on the patio under the "full" moon . thanks man for the AAA content i wouldn't trade this for cable tv ever !
I think some lights running side to side on the car stacker would look nice and highlight the cars.
Your friends are cool always willing to help and they always work hard and do a good job!
Taylor - you created a narrow pinch point with the stairs. The stairs should be out ont the building wall with the other equipment.
You should paint underside plywood of the loft black, so it doesn't stand out so much.
Whenever you put down double layers of plywood , there should be glue in between the layers . That would make it like you had inch and a half plywood instead of two layers of 3/4 . And make it so that all of your bottom joints are completely connected .
No need for conduit between the lights but I would switch out that. Sj wire for Mc wire. It’s armored cable.
Looks fantastic 👍
I dig the carpet look. looks like a checkered flag, which is a good design decision considering. The black portion can be the stand that holds it.
I think a cool project would be outfitting R2 with a control panel on the fork part so you can operate It like a boom now that you’ll be using it to go up and down a lot more
Taylor is about to setup a house in his shop and put his main house up on airbnb and just sleep in the shop when its rented out haha.
Taylor always does it the right way!
Throw some staples in that carpet seams. One misstep and they'll start peeling up . Also get some 2 x 2 1/8th aluminum angle and cover that facia on the floor
You mentioned shelf light looks good, you could grab some of the white led ribbon lights and put them in the shelves pointing down and that would give you even more light for the shelves.
Also I would recommend grabbing you some of the aluminum jacketed romex for your lights, just a thought. Loving the new upgrades
Grass is looking great 😎 lofts are looking sick! It’s all coming together
With the under lofts can I suggest that you paint them black and the lights surroundings black as well and that way it all blends in. Only a thought but you all have done amazing work
Looks so good Taylor. So satisfying! Can't wait to see more!
You should cut a hole through the siding and make a deck on the lean too roof in the back. That would increase the floor space a ton and be a sick hang out area
Once it’s complete… new shirt idea.
Picture of the lofts/back of the shop and the lettering reads: do it once do it right
Hell of job man.
I bet you were great at StarCraft lol
I absolutely love these videos! Of course the cars and drifting is what brings the majority of people here but I’ve been here for years! And I love seeing how far you, the cars, and the shop have come! Super happy for you bro!
We called our lift platform the "man cage" definitely recommend adding a railing to it, not just for safety but we had hooks on the back rail so we could hang tools and not have to step around tools on a small platform. One of those simple game changers when it comes to working in the air
I’m with you on that I just added a 2x4 railing to mine when I had to build one.
you should paint the underside of the loft wood black as well!
Better to paint it a lighter color for lighting.
What kind of paint did you use
Should paint the under side of the floor black too
Have you thought about putting up some melamine paneling in the chillout side of the loft, something to cover up the spray foam on the walls, and maybe let you hang some banners or artwork or something? That might be really cool. I'm super impressed with how this build is coming together, keep up all the hard work man!
The extra flooring is also good insurance for future use. Now you can use them for anything!
I understand doing the grip tape on each step but I'd alternate the gray and black check down the spiral staircase as well after cleaning and prepping the steel steps with alcohol. Itd be an easy enough thing. Wrap it down the front lip of the step for clean finish.
Shop is looking great btw 👍🏼👍🏼
Cutting wood generate tons of sawdust which gets EVERYWHERE. So sometime
ago I hit upon a plan-I do all my cutting outside. Let the sawdust lie wherever it
may fall. The wind will drive it onto the lawn which LOVES sawdust. I dont have to
sweep up at all.
!
Looking good, bet you're getting excited about the possibilities
Get a pallet jack to keep up top on the storage side. Lets you put heavy stuff at the back and create more room
Now this shop is pretty well set up, but imagine a built in speaker system underneath the lofts and all around the shop so you can jam to some tunes.
I like hearing the banter between the two of you my work mate of 35 years and I give each other shit all day it makes the day fly by
You should find a grand caravan to park on the top of the stacker to use as a club house 😂
Watching Taylor pace around looking at how much every inch is lit reminded me of Step Brothers when they built the bunk beds 😂. Looks awesome man!
@Taylor Ray, Love the content man the new shop upgrades are looking awesome! A fire extinguisher mounted on both sides of your shop would be a safety thing that home shops or even all shops should have!
Keep up the good work man! 🤙🤙
Looks awesome! I would install the compressor outside of the shop in a shed or smt. Gets rid of the noise and its free realestate :)
You are incredible, keep making videos!
That checker board is what I would looks cool
Can’t wait for the “I Love Boatin!” merch drop!!!!
Noting more permanent than temporary. I'm talking about the wiring job for the lights! I would have also painted the underside white. Also done in before laying down the wood from the start. Paint it before putting it up and screwing it down. Now you have a second layer, so that is ruled out. Some Cheapo linoleum flooring would have been better for the storage area. It would stop any leaks from getting onto the wood.
Yeah Ok now. I stand corrected. You have fixed your floor so now you are a great driver and an OK builder.
Make sure you open the back roller door before you build the bridge so that you leave enough room for it to open.
When building your bridge behind the lift keep the yellow fold down ramps in mind. I could see myself building a bridge that hits those ramps and not realizing it until after done. lol
You could do some sort of defuser below the lower lights as well. May smith things out and be easier on the eyes.
I think you should buy a little stick vacuum (most come with a wall mount) and mount it up on the carpet side cause eventually its going to start showing general shop dust up there 👍🏻
Great use for the old lights 👍🏻
Surprised you didnt paint the bottom side of the wood floor black, it would make it blend in so nice because your shop really has no bare wood anywhere or anything even remotely close to wood color and all the whole structure is black. But thats just a small detail, other than that i think you guys have killed it with these. I said it last video and ill say it again this mezzanine kit is so awesome and better then anything i could of imagined you building, i cant wait to see the hang out side finalized and decked out and then on the other side how you use all the new space and see the shop all put back together afterwards 👌👌
30:53 oh, Taylor finally got one of those ergonomic desks with variable height 😀
I know its minor, but put some L angle around the outer edges of both lofts. Will help protect the carpet from edge peeling (and from getting caught when sliding things up), but also protect the wood edge from chipping. Plus if you paint it black, it will hide the edge of the wood flooring.
surprised Taylor didn't screw, and "glue" the second layer of plywood... lol He reminds me of myself sometimes with "overkilling" projects!
lofts look great! now go rip the jet boat, you earned it haha
next week on Taylor upgrades his 30x50 shop: we're testing the loft by putting the turbo ls chevy on it.
Living the dream brother. Love to see it!
Glad you doubled up the floor. Well worth the peace of mind. Carpet and lights looks great. Your shop is amazing.
That lawn is looking really good again. The rain has helped a lot, but all that work previously did the trick.
should of put light grey for the quarter. but love the new lofts. loved this series man! God bless
I can't tell you how badly my vertigo is triggered every time Taylor is on the edge of either loft without the railings looking down at the shop, but especially when he's on the edge facing the back of the lofts 😵💫😱
R2 The adjustable height workbench for the win!!! And the lawn is looking great BTW!!!
Very satisfying episodes. Love the shop build.
Paint the underside of your loft floors White and it will really brighten up those areas.
