    Man I'm so jealous of your workshop! I work out of a storage unit so obviously no painting, no electricity, no air, and tons of prep to do any work that can even possibly make a mess but I keep working. I'm hoping when I own my own property someday I can build a garage like this on it!
    So I'm going to use your build as inspiration for ideas because I love what you've done!
    Edit: I have an Instagram (with basically no followers) that I use to show the few friends I have that are interested the work I've done. If you're curious it's jeromeygreen and it's all motorcycle restorations and upgrades as well as some maintenance. It also features me working on my truck occasionally.

Your determination, passion, willingness to learn from mistakes and from others, and the sheer amount of hard work you put into this colossal project of yours, are truly inspiration for others like me to follow and to strive for. Thank you for bringing us along this journey, and I wish for a brighter future for you and your channel. Can't wait for your next video! Cheers.

    how exciting. where i live, we call that adding value to your house. the nit-pick: the air hose going through the wall, if you are adamant about no contamination in the air lines, you could run the line through a little bigger than you need, then cut the pipe, once it's in the wall, to size. then the dry wall particles wont make it to your filters.

  • @RedDragonDS
    @RedDragonDS 4 роки тому

    Having a lathe (or any precision machine with sliding ways) next to a set of grinders might not be the best option, at least in a long run. Particles from grinding materials stick to oil on machine's ways and make sort of a grinding/lapping paste, which accelerates wear. If it can't go anywhere else, at least covering it well while grinding/polishing will help a lot ;) If you do so, just ignore my comment, although it still may help somebody else :)
    Your videos have been a great inspiration to me while working on my E36 Compact, some videos are even more helpful as they share some parts with E30. Keep up the great work!

    I personally don't mind the tools not being bolted down, so long as you have a secure temporary mounting system they should work fine. It's only really a problem if you have to spent time and effort keeping the tool in place while you are using it. Still, it's probably a good thing that you bolted them down, if only to cut down on the comments about it. :P
