My website article: benchworks.be/... It was time to refinish my shop floor after about two years of use, full article about the floor in the link above.
Timothy, you are a proven maestro at every task undertake. You even scrape and refinish your shop floor like fine furniture. I have to say I've never seen a more beautifully inviting and inspiring shop anywhere.
L'efficacité et l'intelligence de l'installation, des meubles sur roulettes, du sol, du revêtement, etc. C'est tellement agréable à voir, tellement satisfaisant. Merci, Timothy. :)
I love your shop, and the excellent tools in it! I'm surprised you didn't install retracting casters under that heavy work bench. Any small chunks of hardwood or grit on the floor will make ugly gouges in that beautiful pine floor when you drag or push the bench.
It was wearing on some places with the most use, technically you're supposed to redo every year. It's all explained in the article in the video description link.
I was surprised on the original video by the basic floor nailing technique, but it seems to work. Would you do the same again? are small nails adequate? I'm asking 'cos I've got some flooring to and my Bostich finish nailer comes with a t&g noze.
Good video, Timothy, what model or brand are your headphones? I've searched for it a thousand times but I have not had success! What a great workshop you have !!
Absolutely fabulous videos and a workshop you have. Can just agree with a previous comment that you are an inspiration indeed. BTW, are there any special reasons why your website blocking an IP's from Russia? had you use VPN to access it.. =)
Just try to give your website host as an example my IP address: 109.167.137.57, they are filtering it somewhere.. I think it might be some firewall rules forgotten or too restrictive.. Thanks for an answer!
This time it was Blanchon hard wax, even more expensive than OSMO (€50/L), but the vendor said Osmo is a slightly inferior copy. Something to do with the proportion of solids. So far the only difference I notice is that the smell is far more bearable. Originally I used Ciranova hardwax on the floor, which may be my favourite.
FYI, I found this article comparing all the hardwax oils: www.peakoak.co.uk/guides/best-oak-floor-finishes-the-definitive-test/ Blanchon is ahead, as well as Fiddes. Good to know, thanks!
I know it doesn't fit in the same category, but I would like to refinish my pine decking outside. Used Sadolin decking, but it decayed massively in the last year and it's been one for just 2 years. Do this guys have something that I can use? even if I would have to strip down all the sadolin first...
Hello I've been watching your videos for a long time, and I have a doubt about the floor you have in your wood workshop, it would not have been better to put cement, because I've seen that in the wood you drain
Hello Jose, not sure if your comment is finished but there is a concrete floor underneath, but it wasn't flat or level, and walking all day on concrete was causing knee problems for me.
Great videos and awesome shop! QUESTION: Do you handle all of your miter needs on the sliding table saw? I have not seen you use a miter saw in any of your videos.
I pretty much never have to use the miter saw thanks to the panel saw, it's set up outside next to my wood supply, I mostly use it for rough length cuts.
Thanks for the reply - I am going to work to modify my workflow to remove miter saw since it takes up a lot of room and makes ALOT of dust in my small hobby shop that is hard to control.
Je trouvais plus dangereux mon sol en béton, il glissait aux endroits ou tombait de la sciure. Donc on était pris par surprise ce qui était dangereux, celui ci glisse tout le temps donc on ne tombe jamais étrangement.
It's a shame you didn't use a hardwood flooring as it would be more resilient to wear. Oak would have been an excellent choice. How come you cheaped out with softwood? Considering the rest of the workshop this is a false economy.
I chose it for cost and looks first, maybe oak would have been better but I don't mind that when I drop tools or work pieces, that it's the floor that takes the damage and not the opposite. There's about 4K of pine here which is already a luxury, in oak were talking about at least 10K which was out of the question.
I love that shop and all the equipment in it, a dream shop for sure......
Timothy, you are a proven maestro at every task undertake. You even scrape and refinish your shop floor like fine furniture. I have to say I've never seen a more beautifully inviting and inspiring shop anywhere.
Your shop looks better than my living room
Your shop, and tools are my favorite. I love the look of the whole shop, very beautiful and organized! Great job!
I admire you for applying high standards to your works as well as to your workspace. You *are* setting the bar high for your fellow woodworkers!
L'efficacité et l'intelligence de l'installation, des meubles sur roulettes, du sol, du revêtement, etc. C'est tellement agréable à voir, tellement satisfaisant. Merci, Timothy. :)
I just watched you wax a floor... I'm not even mad. Good job!
You are crazy.... :)) My respect for you... your shop is a dream for anybody, who likes to work with wood
Timothy, you are an inspiration.
Your threshold for when a floor in a workshop needs to be refinished, is vastly different from mine.
Congratulations on your work and the beautiful workshop :)
Probably the nicest floor i’ve seen...and it’s a workshop floor 😊
Amazing work (building shop) i love your shop, I rescpecrt and I admiring you Mr. Wilmots.
Nicest shop floor I've ever seen
Good video ! I like your shop!
Quel magnifique atelier c'est un rêve pour moi 😉
I love your shop, and the excellent tools in it!
I'm surprised you didn't install retracting casters under that heavy work bench. Any small chunks of hardwood or grit on the floor will make ugly gouges in that beautiful pine floor when you drag or push the bench.
I'm planning that for my next, but this one wasn't supposed to move as my previous shop was way smaller.
We need a video of just the shop dog, and the cat!!!!!
What, no festool sander with dust port!!!! Just kidding, another great video of your shop.
BEST SHOP !!
The floors look Great! How had it been since you finished them? Just curious how durable the wax was.

You should have tried the floor buffer rodeo on that thing.
I was surprised on the original video by the basic floor nailing technique, but it seems to work. Would you do the same again? are small nails adequate? I'm asking 'cos I've got some flooring to and my Bostich finish nailer comes with a t&g noze.
Since it's holding up well I don't see a reason to do it differently. I doubt you could shoot larger nails in the tongue without splitting the boards.
Good video, Timothy, what model or brand are your headphones? I've searched for it a thousand times but I have not had success! What a great workshop you have !!
OH LOVE THE DOGGGGGGG
*uses the Force to levitate the Felder and sand underneath
Inspiring.
those floor buffers are not easy to control. but damn are they fun.
The more you resist, the more they win. The first times I used those was a nightmare.
Timothy Wilmots same here. i had to use them to clean the metal bed of a concrete form at a job i had.
Muito bacana, Brasil.
Gran bel laboratorio. Che tipo di olio hai usato?
"Hard wax" olio
Grazie, ma quale marca?
Blanchon

Thanks Yuri, my website host says there is no problem but you're not the first to mention this. It's annoying but I can't find the problem.
Just try to give your website host as an example my IP address: 109.167.137.57, they are filtering it somewhere.. I think it might be some firewall rules forgotten or too restrictive.. Thanks for an answer!
Thanks, I've given them a few Ip's before, they either unblock them or tell me they weren't blocked.
What kind of wax do you use ? Better/cheaper than OSMO hardwax oil?

4:50 the starting idea for a MFSC lifting system.
Haha - noticed that too

And I'm planning on bringing one back into my shop hehe, but in a way that it adds storage space instead of taking up space.
Beautiful job! Have you ever taken a fall , the floor being so slippery? Thanks for the video.
Slipped sometimes but never fallen, it keeps you aware as sawdust will make any floor slippery.
Good to hear, that would ruin your day should you slip, fall and break an arm. Thanks for the reply.
I got to know. What type headphones are you wearing? :)
It's nicer that my house floor 😂😂
I see that a washing machine have invaded your planned finishing room.
super
Isn't it a bit too slippy?
Votre travail n'est il pas un raclage de parquet?

Ne penses tu pas que qu'un sol aussi glissant n'est pas dangereux dans un atelier
Je trouvais plus dangereux mon sol en béton, il glissait aux endroits ou tombait de la sciure. Donc on était pris par surprise ce qui était dangereux, celui ci glisse tout le temps donc on ne tombe jamais étrangement.
Timothy Wilmots Oui on doit si habituer et puis ça sublime ton atelier. Merci de ta réponse rapide et très bonne vidéo
zo te zien kan je er een dansavond op organiseren lol

It is hard to believe any work going on in this shop. Everything looks like brand new, not a speckle of dust anywhere. Just saying.
