Building a Loft in my Dream Garage 

Well that was a hell of an ending. Lol. Garage is looking good

Awesome. Also, that i-beam, it is PERFECT to install a gantry hoist to help you guys like removing engines and move heavy equipment around.

Ethan has brought up something interesting today… I have been calling this garage 60 x 40 in all of the videos since the beginning and it is actually 60 x 30… sorry about that guys 🙈

Huge caterpillar is a Polyphemus Moth, I think. The adult is brown and pink, with a 6-inch wingspan.

For comfort in winter time, consider putting an another layer of insulation around the loft - floor, walls & ceiling. Extra cosy when it's snowing outside! ☺ Looks really great and if I had the money, land and time, I'd be doing the same thing! 👍👌

Looking fantastic guys, it’s such a temptation to move in straight away when a new shop is built, without doing Epoxy floors and all the finishing touches, which would otherwise probably never get finished, when it’s a working shop, awesome to see where your journey has brought you all to 💯👏

Great shop guys! I run the sales divisions at BendPak, do you guys have lifts picked out yet? I'm sure we could figure something out for your guys ; )

What a dream shop space! So stoked for y'all to have all this room for your projects.

Was the video meant to just cut off at the end after making the custom tool? 🤔 Just didnt seem like your usual way of ending a video 👊🏻

You should get someone to graffiti your roof with your logo that would be premium . especially with all the drone footage, you guys do

Good job on the shop build. Just lookout for places that flies/bees/wasps can nest in the metal corrugations are, if not already sealed.

I'm sure at this point, it's done, but if you didn't, you guys should add a large opening on the end of the loft where you can forklift large items/projects up there for fun, storage, or whatever else!

This is coming out really well, cant wait until the finished product (:

Ethan, shows us the progress of his new shop with his house still lacking siding in the background 😂. Mans got his priorities straight.

I have to say guys, your living my dream rn

The shop is so cool! You guys got to put the hexagon lights under the loft. It would look so cool. Keep up the good work guys!!

You need a firemen's pole, to egress that loft. That would be premium...

making the elevator specifically for when Will ends up in a wheelchair is nice of you *I said this before I heard Will make the same joke lol

Loving the dream garage videos. Keep them coming, it's premium content

So proud of how far you guys have come! You’re always going bigger and bigger! Shoot for the moon!

This is awesome! I can’t wait to see what comes from this shop!

Hi guys, It’s becoming a wonderful shop so I wish you lots of success with the first finishing and send you love from the Netherlands

Very very satisfying video! And the music was premium!

The shop is going to be awesome 👍 exciting things to come

Great looking shop with a loft to boot you guys are doing a great job probably some really cool things will come out of this building

For under the loft on that I beam. A chain block gantry would slide nicelly along the whole Lenght of the Garage. To lift what ever you like 👌 Looks cool as Grind hard team. I am loving the videos of seeing the garage come along. Very cool seeing it all go together. Look forward to the next one

i just want to say im so so excited to see this with all the tools in there!!!

stoked for more shop content!

See, I really admire bespoke tooling 👌 it warms my heart 💓 Most builders would block the entire span for the sheets to butt onto and cut the ply shorter because they know with dry wall, floating floor and skirting; that nobody would know any different? But Ethan would 😁

Shop update finally !!!!!!! Been waiting for this for so long !!! ❤

Nice big workshop guys!

You guys are so talented…. Nice new shop…. Keep going!

I'm not really afraid of hights, but Ethan standing on those pallets at 7:27 made be shiver.

Nice job gyes on the new shop looks great

I worked at a place that made those wooden ibeam floor joists. I figured it out once that if we ran wide open for 12 hours, without any stops, we could run 144 miles of that stuff! It’s a good product too!

great job editing thid video!!! song choice is awesome!!!

We use metal cutting blades in circular saws for sheet cutting. Super efficient, throws a lot of debris though

That's so awesome. Congrats, Ethan

What a sick shop this will be i already Love it =) cool stuff guys !

imagine the enjoyment that one of the grind hard kids would have with all the toys

Build a trolly hoist that rides on the beam!!!

You guys need to post more. You're so cool, love it.

Man, I kinda want to go there to play with their dogs, seeing their awesome toys they construct and talking to the guys would be a definitely premium bonus though :D

I said at once I'll say it again this was a dream come true you wanted a dream garage that he always wanted and now he has it you deserve it

I'm sure this has been figured out but are you relying on the shear strength of the bolts holding the Ibeam up? I always place posts under the ends of ibeams so the load is carried to the foundation.

I'm watching the podcast next. PERFECT TIMING BOYS

Nice job on the finish work

SO insanely happy for you guys!!!! SO well deserved. Can't wait to see what craziness comes out ot it. YYYEEEEEEWWWWWwwwwwww!!!

This garage is going to be SO SICK

I don't know how far along you are with the elevator idea, but here's another thought. I used to be in the ambulance service, amd we transported this woman home who recently had been confined to a wheelchair. Their house was 2 story, with the majority of the rooms in the second story. Her husband was an engineer of some type, and after looking for a professional fitment of a made to order elevator (and their incredible costs), decided to make his own. In the end, he located the lift portion of a forklift which matched his specifications (width/height), and bought one second hand, and got a deal on a set without tines that had a hydraulic leak. For him the leak was a fairly easy fix, amd he fabricated a floor that fit in where the tines attached, and build up a box on the new floor, with a door that latched for safety. It was a nice fit in their entry way, and the elevator fit next to their stairs, and only lost a couple square meters of floorspace, which wasn't utilized much anyway. And being a lift from a forklift, it's weight capacity was way more than they'll ever utilize. Was one of the neatest home made solutions I came across for home access for mobility impaired people. Just thought I'd share incase you can use it. Especially if you're going to be storing heavy things like engine blocks up there in the loft.

I don’t know how this would work out in Idaho with the cold but you guys could do a gutter on the back of that that goes into a water bin that wud give u guys water to a sink to wash hands etc fed by gravity

Place is gonna be a beast to heat compared to the other shop. Watch that will be the summer shop!😂 but being cut into the hill that will some for sure.

Finally! I’ve been looking forward to this video😁

It makes my soul happy to see you guys having this, i love it. But ive noticed lately the videos have been ending pretty abruptly in the middle of stuff. I thought i like, lost connection but it turns out it was just over lol.

Классный гараж! Мне нравится ❤!!!! Классные старые станки ❤ Хороший гусеничный погрузчик ❤ Какая-то ядовитая гусеница!😮 Отличные полы! Классное видео получилось Круто Круто!!!❤❤❤

That catterpillar in "Bugs life" - "Mmmmm, boysenberry!" 😂😂 iykyk

I personally am very jealous of this incredible building. I wish it was mine!

Curious what you’re planning to do about drainage off the back of the roof. Worried about water infiltrating the back wall?

DUDE! I was so excited for this video and it was so good, and then an actual cliff hanger??? This feels like a proper T.V show now. As always you guys are doing amazing thank you for the entertainment. 👍

Love your guy's podcast and hope to see you guys build a 1992Miata mazda mx5 and take it places and post videos

The caterpillar is a Polyphemus moth. Really beautiful when they mature

A mag drill would be awesome right now for you guys

How you do those corner caps is to leave little tabs for the underside so they overlap at the seams, and then you add a few strategically placed rivets.. Done. The package should have came with some painted rivets to match the screws. You want to overlap things just like shingles so everything stays waterproof. Silicone is your friend.

You will need a window up top of this mesanine... nice work guys! Or another garage door to put big stuffs form the outside...

The first build in there's gotta be epic. Something outrageous. 👀

What is the weight rating of the bolts holding in the Loft beam? I too was thinking of the chain lift for removing engines. Dad used to lift them off wood beam in his 2nd garage. 8"x 12" beam. Maybe put some end beams to support loft beam. Or weld it to the side beams?

Finally a new bigger shop!

Lol Ethan has finished this new shop better than his own house! 😂😂😂 Not shit talking, I would probably do the same in his position.

Even the dog is confused with the new shop, lol. Na in the end it will be the dogs shop, they will just be working in it haha. U guys are awesome. Thanks, Steve from dirty Jersey.

i built my dream shop. within 5 years i grew out it.. lol. but i made previsions to the building so later if i grew out of space, i could add more by tying into it. keep making them memories boys.

❤ the music y'all have is awesome, ❤it!!!!

Cool shop. Should have put glue down under those sheets of plywood flooring to prevent having a very squeaky. If you haven't already covered it, it would still be worth unscrewing and doing it over with glue on the joists IMHO. Used to frame and projects always mandates that we did that.

I used all the 6 foot TJI cutoffs to make a nicw metal storage rack. Keeps the different types of metal separated.

Love the way you just stop at the end 😂😂😂😂, not, did the tool work? Did you make it right the first time ? Did someone get hurt? Stay tuned to next episode 😊

Bjorn and your other pup are so sweet!

Actual tons of snow, my goodness!

Man, imagine waking up, and seeing a fricking excursion limo, lifted golfcart, and 4 or 5 powerwheels with engines. Every day.

Coming from someone who designs wheelchairs, GHPC being accessible is awesome!

i was off hwy 11 in south Carolina and there was a caterpillar like that but smaller that fail off a limb and before it could hit the top of the water I saw a beautiful rainbow trout snatch it. it was amazing to say the least i fished right there for quite some time Hah

you should do just one big door for the loft so you can get things up there with the forklift this has been a premium progress.

The track @ 12:29 is so sick!!!! Dammmm!

corners are to be snipped about 1/4 inch apart and then folded over the other corner piece with Silicon to seal it.

Now you can build a "Trolley Crane" to hang off the beam.Put chain-falls on,and electric winches as needed.The Loft will be nice to see you customize.I'm still wondering if you guys are going to build a block shed/woodburner to heat the garages?

Excellent cliffhanger

Puedo ir a vivir con ustedes jajaja .. terrible taller genios!!! 🇦🇷

What an epic space.

So much more room for your activities!

Absolutely fantastic content as usual! Keep it up, have you ever thought about moving to flatter land or an even bigger property?

was that down hill mig i spotted? AND on structural components? very brave of you. but for real love watching you guys every week

8:19 Trim is all about tabbing. You need to cut the parent material to get as many tabs as possible. They're most certainly not supposed to float in air, hence why it's difficult and fiddlesome.

Id live in this.. You guys are living the dream

You could get a gantry or winch that hooks onto and rolls across the bottom of the I beam for lifting and moving engines and stuff

For an elevator, I would use an upright I-beam, with wheels running up the inside and outside of it as a track for stabilisation.

Is there any chance you guys would do a cost / time breakdown of what it took to make the shop after it's done? This looks a seriously awesome workspace.

love the podcast vids with will so funny

That's pretty cool guys I'm a quadriplegic I use a manual wheelchair so to see the lift going in, neat

Well deserved brothers 😊

they only had like 160k subs when i remember, when they started senderella, now they have the support to make the things they couldnt have dreamed of before, very satisfying to have seen

hard ending, good stuff
