    That's not a nasty disgusting basement! It's a slice of heaven where dreams come true! First yours in creating, then your customers who enjoy the beautiful creations!

      Working spaces like this are meant to be dirty IMO. It reminds me of repairing typewriters for my dad. Tools and bits of stuff everywhere along with rows of typewriter carcasses for those parts you can't order anymore. Then there's the front sales area that customers see that's nice and clean.

    I’m definitely going to have to get something for my wife from you, we’re fans of your channel and first discovered your channel from watching your moms channel and we’ve been hooked! I actually have a uncle out in Asheville and was recently down there to help restore his 1970 Chevelle SS and I’ll tell you what I fell in love with the south and I would love to move my wife and I down that way so until then we just watch y’all’s videos and just dream a little. May the Lord bless and keep you all always!

    I love work shop tours like that! I hand build stuff too myself in my free-time after work... I specialize in stereo and lighting work on vehicles, and I hand build LED 'NEON' Tag frames for cars/trucks/motorcycles here in the Hickory, N.C. area... I've hand built and sold over 247 of my LED 'NEON' Tag frames now that light up at night time around your tag...
    3 years ago, I hand built myself a 12' by 16' building on our property at my mom and dad's house, and I started my own little work shop inside it too for building things. I can respect all the little hand-tools, electric power tools, and work stations so to speak we both setup to our specific needs for what all we do and make...
    Some of the coolest stuff you'll ever see is hand-made ourselfs using our own God given talents God gave us! I absolutely LOVE the stuff I build and sell, and you sure do get some satisfaction from knowing all the hard work and tedious work that goes into building everything from start to finish 100% yourself. You can really smile and take a lot of pride in what you create when you're done making something... And people absolutely will love it too, and will always admire your passion and skills, and and the amount of time and work that goes into everything you do and are able to create!...
    I always used to love making Facebook Live videos of me out in my shop building my led 'neon' tag frames live on camera for friends & customers to watch along live, and get to enjoy seeing me do the work first-hand...
    I always felt like I should film it and kinda document the whole process, so that years and years from now I'll have something to go back on and rewatch it all again, and so people can watch how beautifully skilled the work is... There's almost something therapeutic about watching someone who is really skilled at doing something, and listing to them explaining it as they work to those watching, and seeing them take enjoyment in doing their job!

    My dad was a watchmaker years and years ago. He had a desk similar to yours. The flat drawer on his was a frame with a square cloth in the center to catch small watch parts that dropped. His glasses had magnifying pieces that came down. He did most everything with tweezers.
    So long ago, he is no longer living, but this made me remember. Love your channel.

I'd love to send you some of the unique and beautiful rocks we find here on our 150 year old ranch, which has an interesting history full of great settlers. I hope to find out how to get them to you. You are doing God's work and it comes thru your hands and fingertips. Beautiful pieces. Peace and love

    Thanks for the tour Katie. You're very blessed to be able to do what you do and to be so good at it. They always said if you're doing what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. Perhaps a little over-stated, but there is a lot of truth in it.

    Cool shop! You have to expect some clutter when you are being creative!! I used to work on crafts (sewing). I always had my very large desk where my sewing machine sat, fabric and of course different shears, pins/needles, etc. What a mess, but then again, I was being creative. Thank you for the tour of your shop. I think it is great.❣️I love rocks. Always collected them when I was younger and still if I see one that's different or pretty I save them in my plants...they are pretty. LOL.😊 God bless you.
    Keep creating all your lovely jewelry and collecting your creek stones/rocks.

    You made us earings for our grandaughters......beautiful. Nice to see your....simular to mine in many ways. I have lots off antique tools, love them. They just feel right in your hand. Your shop is awesome. I use the old 'Jelly Jar' shelf for smalls. Just a wood shelf, use small jelly jars, screw the lid (2 screws) to the underside of shelf, screw the jar to the lid. I use this alot. Stay safe now and God bless.

    What a great video! I LOVE to see people, especially young people, who learn early how to actually MAKE things! When I was very little my parents made some sort of jewelry for a project our church had for fund raising for the church. My dad was a telephone man who taught me to solder and use tools well before I was ten years old. I went to college and became an engineer in the early 1960's, but was shocked that many of my instructors didn't know how to make the things or even use the tools that they were teaching us about. They knew and taught the theory, but as we both know that is NOT the same as actually doing it! I am 75 going on 76 and I can not imagine not having some sort of workshop. Yours is FAR better Organized than mine. Thanks again and keep it up. Art and engineering share the same roots -- think of Leonardo da vinci! He was both. My late wife was also an artist first but also became a geologist too.

I lost mine 13 and 12 years ago and miss them every day. You girls seem to love yours as much as I loved mine and I cherished the time I had with them.
    You are extremely talented and I too have a love of “rocks” .

    That right there was a splendid tour of your shop, thank you for sharing. It reminded me of a thousand years ago when I used to do some gunsmithing. I used checker and refinish stocks, blue and etch, and gold plate a little, on top of everyday everything. Your bench and tooling brought those memories flooding back to me. True handmade craftsmanship seems to be so rare these days that anyone good at it should be valued all the more. I FIEND on quality tooling, and that little ole pair of round nosed Swiss pliers that you showed just really made me happy. You can see the metal handles are the equivalent of an old wooden floor that's been walk on so much it's got a path wore in it. Remember these times, because in my opinion they're the best. I'll almost guarantee you that when you do get your own shop, maybe even an employee or two working with you, you'll look back on these humble and simpler times with fondness. You make beautiful jewelry and keep at it. God Bless from the Pacific Northwest.

    Nice set up. I love that table. Yeah, that rock dust or swarf is so messy but really your work area is not bad. When I first started learning CNC Machining I was grinding cast iron compressor shafts. Two of my machines were huge centerless grinders with 900mm stones about 200mm wide spinning at 3600mm/min.
    I really enjoyed seeing your setup. I just got a 30"x1" belt sander with a 5" disc for various sharpening tasks.
    Good job on the table Nick!
