In Tip 4, there's a thumbnail for a video in addition to the image I'm referencing. That thumbnail isn't supposed to be shown until Tip 5. Sorry!

Bringing tools to work piece - that’s actually a great tip that I think is often overlooked. Great video & love the dog !

Great video Nick, thanks for sharing your experienced point of view, it is really helpful to those of us that are trying to maximize a smaller space and get it right the first time..! Give Walter a high 5 for me, he's a cool looking dog.

I liked the video and would like to see more ideas like this. I have a 22x 12 shop and sometimes it gets crowded the more I advance my skills. I recently did some reorganization but ideas like this really help.

Really good points about the myths of mobility and how much wall space French cleats devour. Good luck with your channel.

Walter is one handsome boy! Take those pics as they sure grow fast....

Great job Nick! Pretty cool seeing how your shop has come together! 👍🏼Something I have learned when trying to find space is to “build up, instead of building out.”
Things like cabinets or utilizing that space near the ceiling(especially in corners)

I'm trying to improve my section at work as my old supervisor has retired and I've taken over. Only problem is it's a complete mess and there is little room to expand. These tips will be useful in trying to bring some order to the chaos!
First thing I wanna do is put shadow boards up on the walls and shelving on the roof beams.

for my table saw i made a platform with locking rubber wheels for it to sit in and a removable plywood top, so when not in use can be used as a extra work bench and not damage the top

Check out the french cleat system! *points at the only french cleat in the shop* :D
