Best statement I've heard in awhile, "... the key to being organized in the workshop is ... having a dedicated home for absolutely everything." Well done!
The part I love the most about watching your video is your Brit accent. We watch nothing but Brit tv here and I've gotten to where I can understand it just as much as our native language. U.S. English.
Great save on the dowel being too big for the drills you have. I would have considered buying a bigger drill bit immediately after I had made a custom drill bit holder. Then I would have needed to make a new bit holder. Both of these would have required another trip to the store where I would have bought more tools that I don't have room for in my shop. Sometimes the obvious and easiest solutions are the hardest ones to see in the moment.
Nice vid Keith. You make me humbled watching because you aren’t the best but you’re practical and logical, and that’s what we all can relate with ☺️You make a very nice cinematic UA-cam vid. Well done that man 👏👍
Good video. Everything should have a home is a good tip. Been working at that one for 40 years and garage is still a bit of a tip so need to spend some time on storage solutions like this.
Used my Sunday afternoon to make my own horizontal blue roll holder and tape rack- mounted to a beam that runs just above head-height across my workshop. Cheers for the inspiration Keith!
Great video, I personally prefer your original drill bit holder, which I plan to make for my workshop. The paper towel holder is genius, I now have to make one. With regard to shop tours, I personally think showing us your shop at different stages is a big plus, including plans for the future, what is and isn't working and any recent upgrades that you are proud of. I am sure your shop will never be finished, as I am sure you will be tweaking it until you stop wooding in many years time.
Workshop's looking tidy and glad to see the drawers are now living their best life! When I've needed to put a shoulder on a dowel, I put it on my crosscut sled, set the blade to the shoulder depth and rolled it carefully. I'm sure it was very dangerous but the result was tidy (for a man without a lathe).
Hi Keith good projects , another way of protecting the wires from sharp edges is to slice a plastic tube/pipe and work it over the sharp edges it will even hold round the corners with some persuasion maybe using hot water ,G
Tis those tedious little jobs we like to keep putting off, til there is no more horizontal free space left! Time to get organised... Nice little projects, mate👍🏽
agree with using a hacksaw instead of band saw ,,,, nearly lost a finger yesterday when the blade caught the pvc ,,switched to the hack saw straight away !!
Hi Keith, some good ideas, thank you. If you have a mitre fence for your bandsaw, you could use it to feed the conduit, and keep it square. Well, as square as a bandsaw mitre fence will allow.
Very well timed video Keith, as my next workshop organisation project is a tape holder! I’ve also used the 20mm conduit for some quick cheap bench dogs 😉.
I find using auger & speed bits in reverse first with a bit of pressure leaves a much cleaner finish, once you’ve gone through the surface, obviously switch to forwards again...hope that makes sense
If only I could find some 0.25mm, 0.75mm, 1.25mm drills etc. I'd send you a set just to throw a spanner in the works :-) This has given me an idea to organise my tools on my solder station bench though, good video!
Keith, what drill bit do you use on the tape storage rack (7:22 into the video). I think this bit drills the hole and also countersinks the hole. I’ve not been able to find one. Great workshop videos you produce. I’m just starting mine and your series of videos will be a great help. Thank you. Peter
Can I ask why you don't use a French cleat system? I would have thought this would have been better as you can take stuff over to the work bench then put it back on the wall. I'm from the UK too but seem to only see a lot of US workshops use this and like the idea of adding it myself. Also great channel and loving all of the content.
I'd much rather just screw things to the wall personally, french cleats are a lot of effort and I'd rather put my effort in to making furniture and things like that rather than on workshop stuff personally
Nice pan pipe solo! I'm may be wrong but did you just include a Gosforth Handyman tape measure in your "random rubbish?" I won't tell Andy... Truly shocking!!! LOL I'd love to see a shop tour no matter what the state! Check out Matthias Wandel's recent unique take on a shop tour. Cheers!
Hey man, I've noticed in the last 6 months you using stubby auger bits over fozzy (forstener?) bits. Just wondering your opinions on the difference, and then to spade bits? Maybe a video idea on the differences between approaches like this, along with hacksaw Vs bandsaw, pull Vs western, poly Vs shellac, etc. But primarily, the stubby augers Vs fozzy bits!
back to projects/restorations now ? these are just filler content. top 10 things i did to my band saw. 8 tips to not get a splinter. 6 life hacks that will save the day.
@@RagnBoneBrown Don't take this the wrong way. it's probably cos you stopped doing the restorations. Tool talk is not your style. Just commit to what you like don't produce cos what you think youtube likes. Mathias Wandel does his stuff . other wood workers do theirs .. If you try to cater to every niche it not gunna work. yes you get a lot of your fellow youtubers saying you are so awesome in the comments . but yr not building a base. if you like vintage 50's/60's furniture.. go for it make it your thing !!!
I know you Quit yr job / half time to make youtube. but thats the tipping point.. you have to commit to what has brought you your first success. restoration and those one of a kind builds you did. anyway just my 2 cents.

Lovely little video and love the comment 5:02 "just because everything is better when it's green". Made me smile.
Nice vid Keith. You make me humbled watching because you aren’t the best but you’re practical and logical, and that’s what we all can relate with ☺️You make a very nice cinematic UA-cam vid. Well done that man 👏👍
Workshop looking great I like your remodel videos I still rewatch the original shed build and fit out videos from the beginning
Good video. Everything should have a home is a good tip. Been working at that one for 40 years and garage is still a bit of a tip so need to spend some time on storage solutions like this.

I could watch a full video just of your ‘reconstructions’ 😂😂.. love them 👍🏼👍🏼

Great video nice and tidy... I'm well into clean workshops my old boss years ago maintained the jobs not done till you clean up
I like the roll holder 👍

Time to get organised...
Nice little projects, mate👍🏽
These are the videos I like, building things.
I love the metal box upcycling!
thanks Keith. Very useful. I am going to make something similar for my drill bits after watching this!
agree with using a hacksaw instead of band saw ,,,, nearly lost a finger yesterday when the blade caught the pvc ,,switched to the hack saw straight away !!
Nice work on the drill bit storage and charging station Keith! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP
Great Video Keith.

Cheers Barry!
These videos are quite funny!
Really enjoy these videos about the workshop! The tips will all come in handy when I finally get my own shed/workshop space, thanks!
Hi Keith, some good ideas, thank you. If you have a mitre fence for your bandsaw, you could use it to feed the conduit, and keep it square. Well, as square as a bandsaw mitre fence will allow.
Brilliant thanks Keith
You look knackered mate. Take it easy and get some kip. Cheers for the ideas.
Cheers 🙂
LOL @ the pan flute solo!
Great pan pipe playing Keith and great storage ideas 👍👍👍
Finally gettin round to sorting my workshop some handy tips here that I will be utilising thanks again for sharing 👍👍
Havnt even begun to organise my small workshop. Workshops coming along nicely
Thanks. Liked these
"Things will just keep evolving" ... My life...organization never seems to keep a close tab on evolution.
Another good video!!
This is a really good video!
Lots of ideas and useful knowledge shared.
Thanks Mr. Brown, great work as always!
The PVC flute was hilarious ! 😂
You can use a ratcheting pvc cutter for the pipes, not expensive, way faster and cleaner than a handsaw and safer than the bandsaw🙂
Great projects Keith, like the tape holder
Cool little projects 👍
Nice 😊 .
Very well timed video Keith, as my next workshop organisation project is a tape holder! I’ve also used the 20mm conduit for some quick cheap bench dogs 😉.
Love from Nepal🇳🇵
Great job 👍🏼
Reconstruction was on point 😆
Great ideas, I need to have another purge on these kind of projects.
I find using auger & speed bits in reverse first with a bit of pressure leaves a much cleaner finish, once you’ve gone through the surface, obviously switch to forwards again...hope that makes sense
I'll try and remember that tip! 👍
Everything is better when it’s green? All I hear is we both been huge Mathias fans for yearsssssssss 😂
Love the “reconstruction” !! Nice video 👍, some good ideas in there for my woodshed 😃
If only I could find some 0.25mm, 0.75mm, 1.25mm drills etc. I'd send you a set just to throw a spanner in the works :-)
This has given me an idea to organise my tools on my solder station bench though, good video!
Absolutely love the ideas, inspiration for me.
Great video!
Gheorghe Zamfir would be proud of your pan flute skills ;-)
Great vid, nice little projects.
No issues watching btw
Thank you!
Nice job Keith. I didn't know you played the Pan Flute! :)
😂
For your charging station, you could get a USB fan in the back and run it off a phone charger to keep everything cool.
Best and most realistic reproduction ever!
Awesome video buddy, some great ideas. I do think you misspoke when you said green, I’m sure you mean everything’s better when it’s orange!!
Minute 2:08 hahahahaha
Awesome!!
where is the place for Dylan?
nice idea for tapes and towel
Keith, what drill bit do you use on the tape storage rack (7:22 into the video). I think this bit drills the hole and also countersinks the hole. I’ve not been able to find one. Great workshop videos you produce. I’m just starting mine and your series of videos will be a great help. Thank you. Peter
Lot of microplastic - hope disposed off thoughtfully. Love your work 😀
Plumber’s ratchet cutter works well for plastic
Can I ask why you don't use a French cleat system? I would have thought this would have been better as you can take stuff over to the work bench then put it back on the wall.

I'd much rather just screw things to the wall personally, french cleats are a lot of effort and I'd rather put my effort in to making furniture and things like that rather than on workshop stuff personally
cutting cylinders use a v block
Pot noodle storage?
Great job Kieth, hope you don’t mind if I borrow a couple of your ideas, have a great weekend
Nice pan pipe solo! I'm may be wrong but did you just include a Gosforth Handyman tape measure in your "random rubbish?" I won't tell Andy... Truly shocking!!! LOL I'd love to see a shop tour no matter what the state! Check out Matthias Wandel's recent unique take on a shop tour. Cheers!
Oops!! 🥺
Nice one mate!
Or should it be nice four mate....

Augers cut really fast, that's why I like them - maybe I'll do a video on it some day 👍cheers
👍
👍👍👍
3:57 surely you didn't mean Andy Mac's tape measure is random rubbish, or did you... ,😂
Oops!!! 🥺
Rubberwood? What happened to the oak coat stands?
Still got a couple
Was that the toilet pan pipes you were playing there?🤣
WHAT no French Cleats ?????????? LOL 👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Keith, don't know what happened with this video but it had very bad production issues. Regards James (White Wolf)
i just watched and don’t see any issues (via youtube iOS)
Hi James, can you give more detail? I can't see any issues...?
No issues on my end either. Must be your own device
No issues on my iPhone 👍🏼
The quality was bad on my end but it was on auto rather than 1080p
back to projects/restorations now ? these are just filler content.
top 10 things i did to my band saw. 8 tips to not get a splinter. 6 life hacks that will save the day.
I've explained my reasons for diversifying in a recent vlog. Build videos don't get hardly any views unfortunately

Trying to please everybody and get clickbait might work for you in the short run. but it won';t bring you the persistent views you want.
I started watching yr channel when your we;'re building yr back yard shed. and doing vintage restorations.
