Buffalo. I am going through a purge myself. During the pandemic, I collected (hoarded) tons of tools and "projects." I was just telling a friend about putting a piece of painters tape on things and marking the date you last used it. It really holds me accountable for what I keep! Thanks as always for the great content.

I'm so tired of the click-bait titles of the videos. If I want to come back to reference something I saw in one of these, I can never find what I'm looking for because all of the titles are garbage.

BUFFALO, You really hit a lot of truth in this video. Over the years i have done a lot of different things in my shop layout and your absolutely right when it comes to being mobile and floor space being so important. I am still trying to find the right mix for myself but i am getting closer. I completely agree with your stance on tool boxes i have a bunch and when shopping in the used market you can get some amazing deals. One issue i have to address in my own shop is that if I cant find something I own what good is it? I have all my mechanics tools in its own toolbox and I spent a lot of time organizing it and that works awesome but a few other types of tools need that treatment. I also built a wood shed this summer so some of my lumber doesn't have to be in the shop.

Buffalo! I just started watching your channel, and it is refreshing to see someone who works in a small shop like many of us. Helping us make the choices needed to scale down and work within your limits is nice to see. Thanks!

Buffalo!!!! Nice psych with throwing away the Domino!😂

Thanks for this Eric, I have just received my 10’x10’ workshop and it has given me some great ideas including don’t keep crap. Merry Xmas

Hey Buffalo, I moved from a small garage to a big shop 1.5 years ago. I did exactly what you are talking about. Even having muuuuuch more space, I managed to fill it with lots of big machines a "real woodworker" has to have.....thanks Craigslist and Marketplace deals..... and suddenly your small garage tips apply to a place much bigger. Keep up the good work.

Hey, my home town is Buffalo! Thanks for all the great tips. I am envious of your organization skills. The hardest part for me when it comes to organizing is settling on what system I'm gonna use.

Bison Found your channel recently, and enjoying your videos! Thanks!

Buffalo-No wonder you don’t have the money to move up if you keep buying and pitching Festool tools!🤣

Buffalo. I started my purge a few months ago, but then life got in the way. This video definitely has inspired me to get back out there and finish. If only it would warm back up. Thank you for encouraging the "forget about flow" mindset. Part of what encourage my purge was I finally invested in a CNC. This has been a dream for several years and it's the direction I've wanted to take my work for sometime, but it does take up a good chunk of space in a small shop (18'x20'). I've watched a couple of other videos that say the same thing, so I'm also in the process of going back and putting wheels on everything. Hopefully I can get this done soon and get back to the fun part of making stuff.

Buffalo. Hold on so your telling me I don’t need 5 combo squares and every scrap piece of hardwood I ever cut.

BUFFALO...I just came across your videos on KZread. Want to say thank you for the advice and ideas. I have a two car garage which was converted to a half a car garage, (sons weight machines). Seen the setup of your small work space gave me a lot of ideas to redo mine. Again thank you and god bless

Buffalo...this is one of the best videos Ive seen on storage in a small shop. Your comments about maximizing space vs having every tool in order of when theyd be use is right on the money.

Hey Buffalo! I'm about to build a 12x16 shed dedicated to making and I'm going two extra feet taller than the norm (10' instead of the usual 8') for storage purposes. I've mocked it up in Sketchup and from the looks of it, I'll be VERY happy of "going vertical". Thanks for the wonderful videos, keep them coming!

fubalo. great job. I have moved from a large home with a small shop to a small home with a large shop. i am still unpacking as I still have that 50 hour a week engineering job and still getting the house in order. What a mind shock to remove the overstock tools. I had accumulated a family friend's left over tools and still have not cataloged that stuff as I am opening up boxes that were in storage for over a year. fubalo is a screwed up buffalo. Keep up the great work.

Can’t imagine a cold garage in Buffalo this weekend! Merry Christmas!

Buffalo. Very good advice. I also have a very small workshop, about the same size as yours. I have everything on castors and use the walls to store a lot of stuff. I too have purged tools and crap I don't need.

My garage shop is only a little larger than yours. But, I need to maintain a walkway through the shop since this is where we unload groceries and go in and out, etc. Putting everything on wheels is paramount to working in a small space. I built a heavy, solid bench and designed it with retractable wheels so it sits solidly on the floor until I need to move it. The stacked tool box is another great tool. Look around any old-timers shop and you will see one. Must be a reason. Also, have you seen the vertical clamp hanging system on Inspire Woodworking channel. It's genius. I have incorporated an 8 hole version into my bench legs for "often reached for" 4" and 6" clamps. Thanks for another great video.

Buffalo. I've been looking at getting a tool chest/cabinet soon for exactly that reason. I currently have tool boxes or the small items sit near the machines I use them with most. But that eats up time searching for what I need which could better be used WORKING. So I've been wanting to save up for that to really just bring all of the smaller items together in a permanent home, so then it just gets put up every time I use it (instead of a temp home by what I use it most, some exceptions with dedicated spots for wrenches or keys for tool changes right by the power equipment, but that is a dedicated tool for another tool so doesn't count). I have a lot of dead space in the garage due to storage of non-tool/woodworking/yard tools. That will be cleaned out soon enough. In any case, love your videos and your great work. You have helped me get more organized and get deeper into this hobby (I'm in it for the making speaker cabinets, so I like crossing multiple of my hobbies together which helps me never get bored, soon to come a YT channel over audio, which I still have to learn how to make intros, thumbnails, etc., but I've got the PC power, mostly, and the lights for a home filming studio, although I'll be starting with my phone for the camera). Once again, keep up the great work!

Buffalo, you always have the best ideas for small shop spaces. Thanks for sharing!

Buffalo. I really thought you where going to throw the Domino away 😂😂 great humor. You are correct on all your points, I have a small shop and keep as much organized as I can and flow doesn’t matter. Two steps here and three extra steps there matter not. Same goes for the tool chest vs building drawers. Too time consuming Jajaja. Great job man.

I'm not nearly as keen on the clickbait titles and thumnails, Buffalo. I prefer honesty to cheap humour.

Buffalo: Working backwards in a 12x24 'bard' roof shed I share with a riding mower and lawn equipment....Going vertical - and up - was the best thought ever! Cover the studs with OSB (sort of expensive this year) but put 1/2" foam board inside for cheap insulation. I tried Fench cleats and covered all the available wall space but, in the end, built more drawer storage into French cleat-hung, movable small cabinets. All stationary tools are on 3" locking wheels; I can get a broom under each without having to move anything. Inside tool stands are shelves and more storage, including a 1 gallon compressor. (I lined to inside to absorb noise.) At 8 feet there is loft storage accessible with a 10-foot ladder that hangs horizontally on hooks on a ceiling joist. Lumber storage is around the room about 18 inches from the ceiling joists. There's more, but it's good to see other people working in small spaces. Thanks!

Buffalo! Nice video Eric. I have a bit more than 1/2 of a 2 car garage and managed to accumulate a lot of CRAP whether it was poor purchase decisions, old tools, inherited tools, etc. You video was helpful in getting me moving to get rid of that clutter.

I always wonder about folks that keep several brands of battery operated tools --battery inventory must be a pain

Thanks for the video!

Buffalo. I'm amazed at what you accomplish in a small workspace. My workspace is a two car attached garage. I have plenty of room, but I've always had a problem purging stuff I don't use (like my 2009 Harley that I haven't ridden in YEARS!) My brother-in-law is also a woodworker (with a perfect shop) and he hands me down his old tools when he upgrades. Maybe in 2023 I'll learn to purge. Thank for the video, Merry Christmas. :)

Really good advice! It's so easy to just push stuff around and clutter up a space, regardless of size, that it becomes a problem later. Awesome to see such an efficient use of space!

Buffalo. Thank you for singing the tool chest's praises. I have a big Husky rolling tool chest / workbench deal (I can't roll it because of the curb in my garage though), and I LOVE the amount of storage I get. My french cleat wall is great, but I much prefer putting the majority of my smaller tools (from a trim router to wrenches) in the various drawers and leave the wall storage for things that do not store in a drawer well (like saw blades or clamps). Also, agreed on the wheels. I too work out of a garage and my miter saw and table saw are both on their own rolling stands. And you are 1000% right about forgetting "flow" in a small shop. Space is precious, so cherish it.

Hi. I just wanted to say thank you. I am a van lifer and the ONLY way to get anything done is customization. There is no choice. So at an advanced age I am having to learn a whole bunch of new skills. Like table saws and routers, especially routers. I'll be honest I make a mess. I cover stuff up well but I really need to learn and improve my skills. I also do not have an income so no money for expensive tools that I might only use once. Harbor Freight is my friend!! I am hooked on your down to earth honest approach. A confined space and a lot of ingenuity to overcome not being an eccentric millionaire. I totally relate. So you have helped me with the woodworking angle. I still wrestle with the 8020 profile stuff and everything from electrics to caulking. I get it done though. Thank you very much and I am ploughing through your complete library. You are the best and I shall follow you forever.

Buffalo. Great suggestions. I’ve got a section of my shed dedicated to woodworking and have everything on wheels has really helped the flexibility and usability of the space. I’ve got a small tool caddy on wheels that I use for the tools that I need at that time. Love the channel

Small space? You mean like my 8'x10' metal garden shed? Yeah, my husband bought it for me for Christmas. I built the floor (there's not a flat spot on the property) and put the thing together. Dealt with a major leakage issue (still trying to resolve the last little bit, almost there), and moving all my tools scattered all over (in the barn, in the house, on the back porch) into one place and organize them. Maybe now I'll know what I have and what I need? And maybe, just maybe, I can actually get stuff built, AND finished! Thankfully, most of what I need to build is small stuff.

Buffalo. As a hoarder it's impossible to get rid of anything! During the recent cold spell, I did burn some small useless scraps of wood that I kept for no good reason.....

Buffalo. Looks like you know me LOL. I find it tough to get rid of stuff, but I don't think I'm alone. Nice Job Thanks

Wheels wheel wheel. Gotta pull this that and the other thing into the driveway but the driveway is where I do my cutting and sanding. Thanks so much!

Bufalo . One of the best advice on YT on how to organise your shop. I totaly understand the problem of buying toooooooo many tools

Buffalo. Thank you for your video about getting rid of accumulated items. I've spend years saving screws and bolts but I can't find the right size when I need them. I even have drills that haven't worked in years thinking I'm going to fix them. I also have two table saws and two compound miters saws. Each type I have a 7 1/2" and a 10" blade version. Thank you for reminding me how much clutter I have. I'll thin out some of my "stuff".

Buffalo! All I can hear is the slot machine in Las Vegas. 🤣 Its so easy to accumulate stuff. Had a 2-1/2 car garage/shop for 20+ years and I accumulated so much stuff. We moved 1500+ miles and I purged a ton. Now back into a 3 car garage and just need to keep from acquiring a ton of stuff I don't need. Its going to be a fun build to get into shape.

Buffalo - great tips. Thank You. I work in my garage also but we still park in there so I have to be able to move everything out of the way when not working on projects. Getting creative with the available space is always a challenge

I have a 10x12 shed I want to work in and that shed also has all my lawn and garden stuff in it. I’m building a small workbench soon (on wheels). I’ll have a much better idea about organization after that’s done. Also, Buffalo

Buffalo. The tool chest tip is great. Another thing to watch out for is old cabinets that people tear out for remodels. I was able to re-purpose a long set of cabinets that originally hung above a stove into an 8 foot long miter saw station with cabinets. To build something like that would have cost me a tremendous amount of money in wood and hardware. I just cut some plywood for the top and now it's a great work space and miter saw station. I also took another piece from that same kitchen remodel and made a rolling cart with it....and the best thing about it is that the only cost was a few screws, caster wheels, and a bit of plywood for the top! The best part about all of that? The cabinets are all made from a mix of solid oak and baltic birch from the 1990s. It looks amazing!!!

Well, those points really buffalloed me over. Seeing as I have to re design an old model T carriage house for my family's property into a small workshop, I'm thinking these points will come in handy.

I never see people say specialize in using tools that fit in small shops. You don't need to build furniture and cabinets which take a lot of money, room and equipment. You can build an entire career using a scroll saw in just a few square feet. Same with a lathe, or a router. A small versatile piece of equipment can pay for its self quickly and make beautiful projects and as much money as you choose. You will never run out if projects or learn everything there is to know about any of those three tools even if you work in one closet of your apartment. Specializing lets you become a master at something rather than just good at lots of things.

Great tips, purging regularly is a huge one. I built tool chest-like storage instead of buying, because to buy a tool chest that holds heavy tools is really, really, really expensive. And, it's really hard to find one with drawer slides that easily hold my (quite) sharpening kit. Otherwise, I do have one auto-repair shop chest that I use as you suggest, and it works very well.

BUFFALO I have a small basement workshop and workflow goes out the window often. I also have a huge problem getting rid of cutoff pieces of wood that clutter up my area and make certain parts inaccessible. I have a huge workbench against a wall that just holds stuff so I can't really use it. Thank you for the decluttering video. I hope to use some of your suggestions in the future.

I have a third car garage to use! I have been putting all equipment on wheels! My dad always mounts all his tool and screw cabinets on the wall! So times you just got to use what you have and make it work😊. If you wait till you have a perfect shop you will never make anything or build something.

Buffalo and thanks great video. We’re in the process of moving to Oklahoma near Tulsa my new shop is about 600 sq. ft cooled and heated 100 amp service. Moving a shop is very hard, setting back up is going to take months. And I was thinking I need more space all of my tools will be on wheels.

buffalo... thanks for all the tips. I'm actually getting my new (22'x30') workshop ready for my retirement and i'll be woodwoking for fun...and a little $.... but i needed some tips and ideas for all my tools and you gave me a lot of great ideas.... thanks again and keep up the good videos...

Buffalo. Just retired and wood is my hobby. I am looking forward to this. Thanks.

Buffalo. I went through my workspace and got rid of a lot of old scrap wood cutoffs that I would never use for a project by using them for campfires. I try to put everything on wheels and elevate them as well so I'm working at a proper height (useful for the planer, router table and workbench hand tools), which makes a difference. I try very hard not to get into GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome), as it's very easy to overbuy tools. I let the projects I work on dictate whether I **reallly** need that tool or not.

First i will be coming to your house and checking your trash for tools thanks. I have a small building a 1 car garage I just built into a work shop . I used cleat walls on two sides amazing how much space I gained .I will be going to the fleamarket with all the extra tools I found organizing my new space.Great advise about purging and using the rafters .

Buffalo. I am going through the purge and I did try making the perfect layout for my single car garage on sketchup. Which worked or all of one month until I replaced a tool and got a new one so yeah, just finding good places to store things when not in use and rolling them around is the best bet. I am very envious of your tall vertical space, my bedroom is above our garage so I have only about 7 feet of vertical space depending on where you are standing.

BUFFALO!! Great video man, actually some good advice for people with almos no space! Keep it up! Greetings from Mexico!

Buffalo. Get rid of tools !!! Don't you know, the guy that has most tools the day he goes to the final workshop, is the winner. 8-))

Buffalo. Some great tips, I'm in the UK and my space is 10x10ft. Agree with you so much on flow and ignoring it in a small space. Flow also really only makes sense commercially

Buffalo. Putting the workbench on wheels was a game changer for me (still in a garage I need to move the car out of to work, but that's minor). Sometimes you can find brackets at the dollar store that screw into roof joists that you can then store wood in (great for longer pieces and doesn't require as tall a ladder (just need to have the garage space)

BUFFALO 🤣🤣 I noticed on the opening link there were three Festool drills in the trash, but in the video you tossed two Festool tools in the trash separately... That would have been me, there is no way I would throw one after the other of my festool tools in the trash smashing into each other. I love my Festool drill too much (plus they cost way too much). I might have done it with my Ryobi tools. 😂😂

Buffalo... My first workshop as it were, was the back patio of my apartment. I had a Craftsman rolling tool cabinet to hold my tools. The only place I could put that was my kitchen.. it was a start

Buffalo - thanks for another thought provoking video. I don't think it matters what size space you have to work in. We all buy tools and aids that we soon discover we don't really need. I often question whether I'm a woodworker or a tool collector. I'm certainly taking a serious look at what I can dispose of so thanks for the extra push.

Buffalo. Thank you. I needed that, I almost went down that rabbit hole of buying tools I don't need.

BUFFALO... I'm a new sub & have been binge watching all your videos today 😊 I'm a beginner wood worker. Love to repurpose things & use pallets, etc. Being a beginner leaves little money for tools, so that's a problem, but I figure once I get moving, that'll work out. I have a large toolbox and 'some' tools that I've got mainly off FB Market Place. I'm gonna take your suggestions from your Free Tools video. Anyway, great channel - especially for those of us just starting out with limited room to work in. ~Peace✌🏽

Buffalo. I am blessed with a heated (thank goodness today lol) 24 by 36 dedicated shop, and I have been working on cleaning it up for a year (there are some poorly done videos posted on this project) and still have things to get rid of. Even with my progress, work flow can’t be my first priority. I’ve found I just do too wide a variety of projects that require different workflows to make this priority 1. Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing what you do in the new year!

the more stuff you have the more of that stuff you lose or lose track of.

Buffalo. And I'll never grow up lol! These are some great ideas!

Buffalo, from South Africa... I also work in a single garage. I am about to put wheels on my table saw which is the only 'large' item I have requiring moving around.
