I’ve been watching Finish Carpentry TV for awhile now and I think that this has been a great collaboration and really shows. I’m definitely going to subscribe Brent Hull, you seem like a smart individual and enthusiastic about millwork and historical wood work. I’m very interested for videos to come! Thank you
It's nice to see Richard evolve into what he is becoming due to him hanging around Brent. I love his content more and more on his channel now. Keep it coming, the both of you guys.
You are a really cool guy to do this video.....it's kind of ironic....you have a multimillion dollar shop and 10 thousand subscribers....he has a several thousand dollar shop and lots more subs. Great that we get to benefit from your relationship. Looking forward to more collabs.
These 2 guys inspire me so much to keep expanding my knowledge as I get into the trades of millwork and carpentry..Funny part is My knowledge is expanding on its own and I am not forcing myself to grow..it is just happening out of passion
Interesting that I come across this because even though I have no crossover in my career to trim carpentry I routinely watch and am impressed by Richard's videos and was curious how close to "ideal" his choices are having since received quite the education from binging Brett Hull vids.
Always great to see you guys together!! I found you through Richard's Channel & have learned so much watching you Brent!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Hey Brent. I came from Richards channel. Ive seen u on his channel several times but i wasnt subbed. I am now though. Both u guys are very talented and can tell that u love what u do. Seems like Richard really looks up to you and what u do. Good stuff
This is awesome. I have a lot of respect for you both for different reasons. I've been running my own finishing business; I come from the luxury/custom work environment, but am trying to bring a higher value product to more "ordinary" people. Still trying to figure my niche, and how to develop my own business skills, and yours, Richard's, Spencer Lewis', and Scott Wadsworth's channels are invaluable assets to me. Thank you, gents.
I began watching Richard when he had less than 10K subs. He's as particular as an Ole Maid. We'll see if you measure up.😉 In middle school when we breezed through the history of architecture I would have loved to go on a deep dive. If only we'd had computers. I had Encyclopedia Britannica at home. It was better than nothing. In 1982 I bought the most tricked out "Georgian" 1957 ranch style house in the county. I have a love-hate relationship with her to this day.
I love how Richard thought about every square foot of his garage. That's a perfect setup for a small garage. And to have Brent come to his house, that's a dream come true.
I’m just getting started woodworking, but I’m blessed to have the ability to set up a small garage shop in my parents’ rental that I help them manage. It’s not far from where I live (in a condo). It’s a small 1 car garage, probably same age as the house (1918). The garage is actually a split garage where the other bay belongs to the next door neighbors! And the young tenants there are artistic and one has a screen-printing space in the garage now. On the other side, we have a small addition with a “bedroom” and en-suite (not very well done), and my sister currently uses that as her professional sewing studio. The electric needs to be redone to our garage/addition for sure, and upgraded so I can run some stuff like small dust collection, as well as buy some more serious tools. Right now, I have a Jet mini lathe and a small bench-top Delta drill press, because turning is something I can do entirely at home and get a finished product! Building a small cabinet from scraps to hold the drill press right now that will be on locking casters. For milling and big tools, right now I have access during my classes to my school’s massive, awesome shop spaces, where I am currently taking furniture making and cabinetry programs. The next tools on my list, once we have the electric rerun from the house and upgrade, will hopefully be a decent bandsaw, router table, and if I have room, I’d love a Saw Stop table saw, planer, and jointer. But I also really enjoy using handtools so far, so a very small but heavy workbench with good vises and versatile clamping spots will come first! Don’t need to wait for the electrics for that, either. My dad would love to keep the ability to squeeze a small car in there, so the goal will be to have every shop fixture able to roll out of the way and tuck into each other. This garage also serves as storage for the home, and as the garden “shed”, though that hopefully won’t always be fully necessary as we slowly optimize every bit of the small house and lot! In addition to the electrics and any necessary cabinets and shelves, I have big ideas of not just cleaning up space above the rafters, but painting everything inside including the underside of the roof white, air sealing the addition next to it in a way that is up to code for bedrooms, and removing some very old low-quality windows (maybe 90s era vinyl?) that need to come out, closing up the garage one and building new wood ones for my sister to enjoy in the addition (where we would also like to take out the low ceiling, and instead finish the vault up to the roof).
If you are starting out and have not yet gone down the route of buying thousands in machines and equipment start with hand tool woodworking. While it may appear more daunting as an endeavor it will make your skills and understanding of wood far deeper. All you need to start out in craft woodworking is a set of chisels, hand plane (no 3 or 4) and a saw. You can make absolutely anything with just that. You can also learn to make your own wooden tools as well. Then your first project will be to make a joinery work bench. Save your money for later when you master the basics. You still use what machines you have bought. Too many people think you need a table saw, jointer, band saw, router table, spindle molder, sanding machine, mortise machine and so on.
I could have been a very happy camper if I had had a father with that shop. I would have worked my way up and then taken over after him. On the other hand, I wouldn't have gotten all the education and degrees that I have that gave me a lot of self assurance that I lacked as a young man.
Awesome collaboration guys. Been following and enjoying Richard’s videos and now introduced to Brent. Fascinating to see different perspectives of men at different points in their careers. Projecting out a few years, someday Richard will be visiting a young buck’s garage and then showing off his mega woodworking factory. Brent - I’d be curious what your favorite point in your journey has been? Was it more fun when your company was smaller, or are you happier where it has grown to today? Respect and a hat tip to both Richard and Brent. Keep inspiring.
Thanks for watching. It's been great building a friendship with Richard. He's a great craftsman. I suppose the current size of my business allows me to focus on my passions. Building the business had a lot of bumps along the way. I still love building and crafting, trim work, that is the best.
I Just Subscribed. Thank you for this video. I’m trying to organize my garage into a small workshop and this is very helpful. I’m in need of a new table saw. Do you have any recommendations? Thank you.
Thanks for the sub! I bought a table saw recently, I went with an old school Powermatic. I like machines from the 60's. They are well built, they have heavy castings and are solid to use. I find new machines can be poorly made. Good luck!
We have a working wood shop. The problem with that is everything get in there specially my garden stuff. No Bueno for him. Can't wait until he gets everything organized.
I would get rid of the miter saw and get a 1950's solid accurate workhorse Dewalt or Delta radial arm saw. EDIT: I would keep the miter saw but add a radial arm saw in the line
You can really tell that Richard looks up to Brent and Brent is a great mentor. Keep up the good work both of you guys.
Thanks for watching!
Brent looks like a good guy, and great father!
Found you through Richard!

You both are awesome.
Thanks!!
@@BrentHull No, thank you sir. You are an amazing resource.

Good video!! I built and outdoor station at my shop and thats where I do 99% of my sanding. I've got a fan set up so the dust blows away while I work.
Sounds great!
I built a bay window style bumbout without a window for my sliding miter saw in my 12'x20' garage.
Yep, that Makita is a good solution.
I have the Bosch slide an glide 12 miter saw
Thanks for sharing.
Hi I found ya both from “let’s get it going” guy.
LOL! I'll let him know. Thanks for coming over.
I have the same size garage. My dream is to buy the same machines as you. Maybe this year if my stock goes up, which it isfinally is doing.
Fingers crossed! Good luck

Love it 😍
Thank you! 😊
Hello Brent, Thanks for this video. Great insight. How far do you travel for a job? I'm in Atlanta.
Millwork and consulting across the country. Let me know if we can help. You can send ideas to info@brenthull.com. Thanks
My garage shop, everything is on wheels to take outside when I need. I can only work in fair weather. I would love to have that much space.
Yep, he has a great set up
Cool
THanks
We have a working wood shop. The problem with that is everything get in there specially my garden stuff. No Bueno for him. Can't wait until he gets everything organized.
Thanks!
I would get rid of the miter saw and get a 1950's solid accurate workhorse Dewalt or Delta radial arm saw. EDIT: I would keep the miter saw but add a radial arm saw in the line
Noted, we ultimately have moved to a undercut cross-cut saw for cutting things to length. I love the old Dewalt radial arm saws. Thanks!
In heaven you get 25 to life for painting over mahogany. What a great door!
Lol. I agree.
Do you know how to get ahold of Richard. I mite have a business opportunity for him. If he's interested
I would just reach out to him on his UA-cam channel. Good luck.
I didnt know Richard was your apprentice
Haha, funny.
🕶🇺🇸
Thanks
Richard looks super stoned.
Haha
