What size is your new shop? I'm getting ideas for mine. Looks good so far! Hope you can get walls up before winter hits.

Hello Brent, I was just curious as to why the cement pad wasn't made deeper, as you mentioned in the video?

Don't forget to have them come back and make relief cuts and then seal those back up. That'll remove a lot of the stress of the pad and prevent it from cracking in the long run with hot-cold cycles... Diesel Creek just recently had his dream shop cemented up and he went through the whole 9 yards of explaining why things needed to be the way they were and such, especially given you have pretty much the same in-floor heating setup he has with the pex tubing. Good luck with the rest of the construction, hopefully it's problem-free and you get the shop exactly how you want... and don't forget when it's time to choose lighting to see what the internet has to say about different fixtures since you're going to want something that doesn't flicker on camera.

I guess you don't realize that heated floor is way over cost, People aren't doing it anymore . Unless you have 1300 1400 dollars kicking around for heating. The smart ones are going to used oil furnaces , cheap to run and hardly no maintenance cost . So Brent what you spent on pipe and installing your underground heater less the parts you will need to finish ,you could probably heat the garage for a long time free.

Brent your new shop is going to be amazing love the size of it ,you have worked very hard in the past few months making all the videos since your fire with the help of Ester

Glad to see you are getting back what you had before. It is a shame all the crap you guys had to go through. You guys truly deserve to get back what you will. My thoughts are with you. You give so much enjoyment to others.

Yep thats what I was thinking $$$$$ the concrete as well as the gravel is like gold here as well.

The shop pad is very impressive, but what impressed me the most was the richness of the topsoil you stripped in preparation for the pad. Can’t believe how dark it is!

Manitoba is known for it's so called "rich black soil". It is not all that you might think. Look up on a search engine. Not a hater. I lived my first 35 years in MB.

@@ehguy3628Sounds like the blacksoil we have here in Western New south wales and Queensland. Not much good for anything and pity help anyone driving across it in the rain .

This is SO exciting!! I am so Happy for you and Ester. You two are great people and I always look forward to your videos.

That is looking fantastic Brent! I like the fact that on a hot humid day you can step out of the new shop, walk across the driveway and jump in the pond for a swim to cool off!

Hurrah! I know we're a few days in the future, but it is started - means by winter you should be enclosed and warm, with at least the basics for working in place. So happy for you both that this is happening. 😎

Concrete guys did a great job. Setting the floor at that elevation is good planning.

Having been a new construction plumber over 50 years I I'm very familiar with all the aspects of concrete .Love your new shop Brent . Thanks for all you share with us. God bless.

Concrete pumps are an engineering marvel. Crew doing amazing job screening to your drain rings. First time seeing your beachfront. Will be amazing shop.

Nice seeing a new shop being built, you deserve this ! 😎

I knew from day one that you're going to build better and bigger shop. I am confident that your new shop brings more good lucks. I will keep watching your videos!

I can't believe I watched those guys do that pour, I've been responsible for hundreds..... Almost felt like I was working. Great to see the new shop coming along.

Just fantastic! Amazing how the pumper can reach so far with all that weight. And the concrete guys, a very hard working bunch. Going to be an awesome shop when its done, i really hope the rest goes smoothly too. Can’t wait to see it closed in.

This is a nice patch of concret, great workers, did that in one day ! Pablo will be happy with that big place to hangout during the winters and the hot summers. Ester and Brent you makes a nice couple.

Pad looks great! It won't be long now until you'll be building all sorts of cool vehicles again. Hey to the pups!

Looks terrific. Nice to see the progress and the two of you so happy. You two definitely deserve this.

Man that shop is going to be nice! Thanks For sharing. We're all very happy for you and looking forward to seeing more awesome builds from your new shop.

Brent and Esther, the new shop floor is amazing!! Your coming right along with your new shop! Keep up the great work 👍. Really looking nice, you'll be in it before you know it. God bless you and your family, jim

Wow! Warms our hearts seeing you two walk around your new shop! Well at least the pad of the new shop. Things gigantic! Just happy for you now and excited to see what’s in store for the future. Keep on Trucking!

Glad to see you saved all that good prairie soil. My grandfather was a Ukrainian settler who broke virgin sod near Steinbeck.

You are a man of many talents Brent,keep it up!

Hello Brent, thanks for the update. Those fellows did a great job. 👍 Look forward to seeing more of this build as well. Be good and take care. 👍

Floor heat is going to be awesome, I had it in my last shop and I think I spent more time laying on the floor because it felt so good on the back lol Looking so sweet

Congratulations to you two. The shop will be fantastic. Pablo and Buddy will love it.

Look's like its done right, Its actually a smart move to have the shop floor a little high above elevation so you don't have water intrusion into your shop smart call. Especially, after winter thaw and spring run off and such. Should be a nice nice shop by the end of it all. And you'll be able to have a much more convenient set up then before. Excited for you Brent, you and Ester will have a great shop to entertain us all for years to come. Sometimes, in life after trials and hardships and pain result in good things for us, when it's all said and done.

That looks like a really well designed pad that will stand u to whatever you put on it. Nice job!

You deserve the best my friend! I'm glad you are getting progress made and I'm excited for you to move in and build in the new shop!

Its Great to see you getting on with the new shop and looking forward to seeing the progress of the rest of the build you and Ester take care

It looks like a great slab. I like that it going to be high enough so you should never have a water problem. I've seen many built way too low. Thanks for the video 👍

Glad to see progress and can't wait to see the next "New Shop" update.

Don't skimp on anything as you go. Spoil yourself now and enjoy later. Can't wait to see it all up hopefully before the snow comes.

Congratulations on thisnew step , having the concrete done really helps you see the building shape

Thanks Brent for taking us along with this journey, a fantastic perspective seeing it from the drone. This new shop is really going to be great. Maybe not the memories of the old one but progress makes new ones. ,,,,,take care don

So awesome to see progress on the new shop! Looks like a good size as well when there's people there for scale 👍

Great concrete workers! Congratulations!

Where some people see tragedy, others see opportunity. I hope your new shop is everything you hope for and more.

There's nothing like running equipment to get your mind off your troubles. It's good to see you making progress.

So stoked for you Brent. Looks like an amazing shop already. You and Ester have definitely made lemonade from all those lemons the fire produced.

I hope someone local can come and get a lot of use out of that nice dark top soil! Nice start. You get around that 45 minute mark and just love seeing it nearly done.

Great form and deck work to the KLR Construction guys ...This is gonna be one massive mancave for sure..Thank you for the update...we the subscribers are just as excited as you guys are...make sure Pablo and Buddy have there hangout area too

Brent wow I honestly think your a legend ,that shop is going to be sooo awesome ,and easier access for your babies ,Austin has great taste in cars that Buick I'd give an arm and leg for lol.well done brother !love and respect to you and fam

One step closer to your awesome shop, Brent. 😎 Looks great. Now for Construction.

Glad to see your new shop coming together it will be a nice shop when finished

It was amazing to see all the content you created without a real garage.There is no quit in you.

Congrats on the new construction start. Great to see some happiness coming back to you.

Really happy to see 👀 you getting a proper shop and you guys rebuilding your lives !!! It awesome 👌

Brent, Congratulations on the start of the new shop!! Gonna be a nice one buddy 👍, Thanks for taking us along the journey!!

This new shop is going to be amazing. So happy for you guys.

Hi Brent, this was a great update. Those concertos work hard when the pour is on. The aerial view shows the value of a good working team, their anticipation of what is needed where and their coordination was good to see. That power screed was also a great tool. I can only imagine the level of anticipation and excitement you must feel as these initial steps get done. I had not seen a ride on concreting helicopter till this vid. Thanks for sharing.

Man those concrete pumpers are an engineering anomaly .Best of luck in new shop Brent..Thanks for the entertainment!!

That is really a nice slab Brent. It won't be long now! Oh, and the tunes are always great too!

Effin awesome Brent. It should just keep getting better from now on. A couple hickups here and there but mostly progress. It's great watching it, thanks for the take along.

Always great to see you sharing your positive attitude Brent. Thank you.

Yeah that's looking really good. That'll be one heck of a garage heat in the floor like you had before. That'll be really nice. Looking forward to the rest. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦🐕

Never realized you did that much work yourself Brent. And you find out who are your true blue friends for sure. Looking great. The foundation looks really solid. Thank you ❤️🙏🏻

What an incredible process to watch unfold ‼️ Thanks for sharing this 🙏 Glad too see your getting your life back together , Brent

Congratulations on the first step back. Looking forward to seeing the final build.

You’re going to be much happier with the layout once’s it put up. Love the update video, keep them coming!

You Deserve it Brother, can’t wait for content and memories that will come out from the new shop. Congratulations 🎉

Congratulations on the new shop floor completion. Looks like you had good weather for it. Looking forward to seeing the building go up.

Well that’s coming along quite nice! You’re very much like me when it comes to a visual plan. Looking good bud!

Brent, it’s great to see the new shop taking shape.

Brett I was a regional manager of floor covering distributor before I retired. There are free 3D building( warehouse ) programs you can use for building and utilitize placement of wall doors racking etc

So very happy that you’re new shop is becoming a reality. You must feel like a kid in a candy store!! We’re all very excited for what’s next in your future.

The pad for the shop looks like a hockey rink from the drone shot . You will have room enough to have a project on the go and storage and hoists , I'm over the moon with joy for you , words cannot express and I know it must be ten fold for you . Can't wait to see the next stage , congratulations from Stuart in Ontario .

Can't wait to see you creating new hotrods in the new shop!

Best video I have seen in a while. Your on your way now, Brent. It looks big, but in time you will run out of room. That is life. Thanks, Ronnie.

Brent , thank you for the shop video . Being an old retired building contractor any being built is interesting to me . Floor looks great and it looks like it will be warm for your dogs . I understand about how it helps if you have outer walls up that it makes it moor easy to see how you want the interior walls . In all the 35 years I built there were very few jobs I done that changes were done after starting . Even a couple of houses I built for myself there were plan changes the day we would start and all though out the time I built it . The worst part was to build a wall then decide to relocate it that would cost me more ripping it out .

Great video! Glad you are getting things back together, I am enjoying watching you create.

Exciting to see an incoming dream shop after that nightmare. Couldn't be happier to see a nice person having good things go their way

WOW!!! I love videos like this. Honestly, you could set up a few cameras and let them feed to a computer and I'd watch the build night and day!!!!! So many of us wish we could build something like this, but we are all sooooooo happy for you two and hope you'll be totally happy with the new shop... One thing though, I'd TITLE videos with NEW SHOP BUILD. BUILDING FROM THE GROUND UP.. Titles bring in new viewers and that should help down the road....

WOW very good looking pad ,Good on you sir Brent very well deserved .Great to see you and Miss Esther happy ,Great video thank you for sharing looking forward to another update on this build well done

Looks awesome! Being a visual guy myself I know what you mean about the ideas in your head and getting that to become real! Hopefully no more winter freeze ups!!? Nice all the way around! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️☕️

I know we'd had sneaky peeks already but this was awesome to watch. Happy for you.

So glad to see the new shop is on its way happy for you guys....

So happy for you guys it is all coming together for you sort of a phoenix rising out of the ashes so to speak looking forward to all the adventures in your new shop

I’ve been around buildings of all types. In Maine and Virginia. I’ve seen Jack legs cut corners, just slip shod and I’ve seen the best! Your boys are at the top of the list. Yes indeed, they did your foundation in what I call “DID IT ALL GREAT”. Nice to watch great work. I used to order stuff for the houses I built and the owner would say, down here they just nail it or they use minimum stuff. I live to overbuild. Yeah, your shop is being built GREAT! 👍👍👍👍👍. Just nice to see great work. In my 75 years I’m impressed!!!!😊

Outstanding! So stoked for the new shop. Y'all are an inspiration.

Awesome stuff Brent looking forward to the walls going up

I'm glad you didn't get burnt out by the wild fire

Looks great , that is going to be a great shop glad to see every thing working out for you guys , GOD BLESS.

Super happy to see this starting to take shape

Nice to see tubing in cement for heating in winter time.

So happy for you both, this is a big step moving forward. Cannot wait to see the walls and roof going up. Pretty soon we’ll be getting new build going on in your dream shop. Many Blessings to you both, and the puppers.

Thanks for sharing this,Brent...im so happy for you and Esther...the concrete guys did a great job and I was glad to see Pablo keeping an eye on things😎👍

Great start, Brent and Esther! It'll be awsome when it's done.

This is great….I’m excited to see the entire build.

You 2 deserve a nice shop, I can see many new things happening in there😊

So happy for you and your wife. This will be a wonderful new chapter in your life. You deserve all good things from now on. Congrats!

Wow that’s awesome. Can’t wait to see the building go up. I’m sooo excited for you guys. Great video thanks for sharing

One thing I learned about a big shop is to put the rolling up doos one on each end of it, will give it a good in cool breezeway for those slightly warm days. It also saves on the electricity light bill

Awesome progress mate can’t wait to see the finished shed ya worked hard for it 👌👌👌

Cool😮. Now you need to seal it ,so it's easier for clean up

Good to see you have turned your problem into the opportunity. Enjoy moving in.

Absolutely fantastic I’m jealous I want a shop that size. I’m really excited for you guys and glad you’re able to be able to recover from such a tragedy

Canada must be running low on concrete now...looks great! Congratulations! Can't wait to see it finished and you working on projects!

Huge progress, love the update, take care of your self!

The new world headquarters of the Half-ass Kostoms. I love it man. I am so happy for you guys. Nothing is ever too Big for God!!!! It gives me great joy to see him work. You are so deserving of this.
