Building a workshop has been a life long dream for me. Now, back in the UK. I'm building a new workspace from the ground up from scratch. For those with questions watch this Q&A too get more info: https://youtu.be/o20i5UIxPC0 Any Questions you have please leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to get back to them plus I'll add them to and tips video that will come in the future. Tool & Material List: https://bit.ly/35P8Rg0 Airtable: https://bit.ly/35RQ1ok Blender Precision Series: https://bit.ly/37WyGNB Questions: How much was it and how big is it? So keeping tools our of the pricing In total it came to around £1200 But this includes extra wood to make workbenches too. It's 2.9m by 2.9m . Has a close to 7-degree pitch and highest point is 2.49m. Keep in mind that I have completely over-engineered this workshop for 3 reasons. 1. I'm in Scotland and I get a lot of rain so I had to have a pitch on my roof. 2. I'm close to the sea and there is a field with an unobstructed prevailing wind so I get gusts of wind up to gale force 9 pretty regularly. I had to keep room for 100mm rockwool to make sure I could stay warm and more importantly that I would not bug the neighbours too much. Where is the power? All electrics are now in using office conduit. I got a pro for this as I'm not going to take responsibility for electrical work till I've got some real training. I'm sure you can see the conduit in some of my other videos. It goes right around the workspace. Your Door is upside down... Funny story really... Yup that is pretty much how I got the door plus I only really had one option to mount it as I wanted it to open outward to give me a little bit more room for larger projects in the future. Thanks for the heads up thou. I did spend about 20 minutes just looking at the door to think of which way round I should mount the freaking thing.... but oh well it works and it only cost me £5 so beggars can't be choosers. 🛠 Subscribe!

Here I go about cutting and explaining the system that the large laser cut desk is going to have. The easiest way of explaining it is a horizontal peg-board that is attached with risers under the desk.

A first of many to come. I thought I would give it a go and modelled my living room and created a scale 1:1 of the desk I'm wanting to fit in as it's such a big project and I just wanted to know if it will look good in the space. I am happy to say that it all paid off.

First step/test of many to come. Getting a model in Virtual Reality and laser cutting. In a nutshell VR to laser. This time we are making a fruit bowl. There is much to be improved here but I'll slowly learn the limitations and be able to create and user VR as an extra tool in my arsenal.

Taking a look at Masterpiece VR and seeing just quick how good it is for VR modelling.

One of the many things I was needing in the flat was a coat rack. I had seen a Piano key coat rack a while back and really wanted to see if it would be able to build one from 99% laser cut materials. Well here is my first attempt. It's made out of 20mm plywood along with a little metal bar and a few little magnets. It turned out really sleek and modern looking and does its function beautifully.

Part of the set build that I did last week I made these super simple hanging shelves. It came out really nice and I'm really impressed with the amount of weight it can handle. I have not upgraded the OSB to use a 20mm plywood as I found the longer beams would bend but the majority of the build is in the video and shows you just how simple it is to build this elegant, modern and minimal shelving system.

This is how I went about building a Photography / Video Set. This was a very interesting project as I had a strict budget and tight deadlines. One thing that is not apparent when watching this video is that these walls are removable as they are on a hooking system. Meaning that In the future once I get bigger sheets of wood you could literally change the background just by unhooking it and hooking on a different one.

So I thought I would share a small project of how I made my first pegboard shelf. This is my first version and there are a few little changes to be made but I'm really happy with the final outcome and I'm really surprised by the weight it can handle.

I have been needing a new belt for a while as I have been using a skater belt for the past 6 months. I found myself tightening and pulling up my trousers every 10 minutes. SO I go a hold of some vegetable dyed leather and made my first hand made laser cut leather belts.
