 Winter is coming! It is about 35 degrees Fahrenheit or about 4 degrees Celsius out in the shop today. And I didn't quite beat the cold weather but I've been making a lot of progress on the new workspace. So let me show you what I've done and give you an update. I'll get to the new wall in just a minute but let me show you some of the other updates I've been making. If you'll remember from my last garage tour, this wall over here and the one over there were unfinished and since then they have been properly finished with drywall and insulation. I still need to insulate the bottom blocks but that's on the list. This wall over here has also been refinished but the best part is probably this new window and I'm pretty excited about the new window because one I'm going to be able to open it which I couldn't do that before so I'll be able to get fresh air in the summertime and the winter it's much more energy efficient than the previous one so it's going to keep the warm air in and also it's a little bit bigger than the previous one which is going to let in a little bit more light and it looks pretty good. Moving on to the ceiling you can see now that there's OSP screwed to the ceiling and I've just screwed to the rafters and that's going to allow me to put insulation above the ceiling which is going to have the biggest impact for keeping this a little bit warmer in the wintertime. I'm planning on putting a drop ceiling on here to help finish it off, make it look a little bit nicer. I'm going to harvest that from the basement and bring all that stuff out here to put in the shot. For electrical I've got a few more outlets now. Every outlet box is a double gang box and the outlet on the left is on a different circuit than the outlet on the right and that's going to allow me to run two tools at once probably a dust collector or a shot vac and maybe a saw and not have to worry about tripping the circuit breaker. In addition I've also got a dedicated outlet for the table saw and an outlet up high for possible future use as maybe an air cleaner or an extension relic plug-in up there. For the lights in the ceiling I plan on having the fixtures that fit into the drop ceiling and I'm going to retrofit those with LEDs and I'll have four fixtures, two on each end of the shop and with the LEDs I think that'll help illuminate this area pretty well. The lights are also going to be on their own circuit so they won't be bothered by any of the other tools and that brings us to this main feature and the coolest part about the shop so far and that is this wall and this massive doorway. Since this shop is going to be fairly small and it's going to fill up pretty quickly once I put a table saw and a couple work benches in here so I want to be able to use the parking spot behind here as an extension of the workshop and that's where this door is going to come into play. For the door here I plan on repurposing some patio door panels and mounting them barn door style. Having them slide open means I don't have to worry about keeping the floor space clear and having them bite part like this allows for a really big opening. By top hanging the panels from rollers that means I can keep the floor and the threshold either low profile or movable or not have one at all and that'll allow me to roll the table saw or a workbench out and not have to worry about going over a large sill. With these features for the door and good weather I can use this as an extension of the workshop to build larger projects that I wouldn't maybe otherwise be able to do in the smaller space. If you take a look at the wall here it starts out as two by six construction and then it steps down to two by four construction and this space here is going to allow the panels to slide open in a pocket. This outside wall will be finished and insulated. The panels will slide in a pocket and then there will be a thin finish wall on the interior. I'm looking forward to building this door. I think it's going to make this shop pretty unique and I haven't seen something like this in any other workshop so once I get this wall finished and sheeted and insulated to where there's just the doorway left I will bring you guys along and do a build video showing you how I finish off this door. Well that's pretty much everything I've done so far with that I'd better get back to work. Thanks for watching. Oh you can see me. No window. No okay. Did you see you before? The regular drop lights that fit into uh not drop lights. Regular fixtures that go in a drop ceiling. Gotta get back to work.
