This week, I finally tackle the chaos inside my workshop, using scrap wood hacks, cheap fixes, and whatever I can find to create a storage system that actually works - because spending half an hour searching for tools before every DIY job was driving me mad. 🛠️ TOOLS & MATERIALS I USED *As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases made through links. ➡️ Stanley combi drill https://geni.us/fN8isKn (Amazon) ➡️ Stanley impact driver - https://geni.us/Rjo60E (Amazon) ➡️ Tape measure - https://geni.us/tpmeasure (Amazon) ➡️ Werner portable workbench platform - https://geni.us/3wx4a0K (Amazon) ➡️ OX Speed square - https://geni.us/oxraftersquare (Amazon) ➡️ DeWalt Protective sunglasses - https://geni.us/dewaltsunglass (Amazon) ➡️ Mixed drill bit set (masonry + wood) - https://geni.us/bitsetwoodmasonarymeta (Amazon) ➡️ Worx Mitre saw - https://geni.us/vBYVcX (Amazon) ➡️ Spirit level - https://geni.us/61TS3 (Amazon) ➡️ Einhell SDS Hammer drill https://geni.us/EgMCBBJ (Amazon) ➡️ Concrete screws - https://geni.us/Concretescrews (Amazon) ➡️ Twin Slot Wall Rail - https://geni.us/TwinSlotWallRail (Amazon) ➡️ Spectre wood screws https://geni.us/woodscrewassort ➡️ Rolson magnetic tool holder https://geni.us/magToolHolder (Amazon) ➡️ JSP Force 8 Half Mask Respirator Dust Mask https://geni.us/nBB1J (Amazon) 📹 FILMING EQUIPMENT ➡️ DJI mini 4 pro Drone https://geni.us/djimini4prodrone (Amazon) ➡️ Dji Osmo pocket 3 Camera https://geni.us/DJIosmopckt3 (Amazon) --------------------------------------------------------------- You can also find me at the following places: 🛒Shop in my Etsy Store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/CarpentersDaughterGB Support Me Via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thecarpentersdaughter The Carpenter's Daughter Blog: http://www.thecarpentersdaughter.co.uk/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecarpenters_daughter/ My Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/Carpenters-Daughter-1581968535377709 Pinterest: http://uk.pinterest.com/carpenterslass/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/carpenterslass --------------------------------------------------------------- FOOD: My Food Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/TastefullyVikkie My Food Blog: http://www.tastefullyvikkie.com My Food Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TastefullyVikkie Instagram: https://instagram.com/tastefullyvikkie/ Pinterest: https://uk.pinterest.com/tastefullyvik/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tastefullyvikki ---------------------------------------------------------------

Be honest… what’s the most out-of-control thing in your workshop/garage right now? 😅
That was ridiculously satisfying! Now I want to tackle my garage 😀
Well, that answered that question! 13 is the optimum number of tape measures! 😅😅😅 Looking a lot better! ❤❤
i have a idea if you let your land as allotments then you can have more money coming in just a idea
Very jealous - was getting concerned that Hans was not there at the start - he is the star ⭐ of the channel after all !!
Gotta love a woman who has her own favourite drills. What a bird!
I spent a couple of weekends racking/shelving and organising my garage/work space, got the label maker out and labelled up absolutely everything and what a difference it makes, everything is neatly away and everything at hand, it makes such a difference to finally be organised, but you don't realise how many duplicates you actually have.
My husband died 7 months ago. I have done quite a lot in that time. I am almost 72 and live with chronic pain but there is nothing like taking your mind of things by getting organised. The zone I never entered was the big double garage which sort of resembles your workshop. Can only get into it via house as the big old iron garage door is to heavy for me to lift. First job was to get my brother around to replace the striplights with LED lighting, so I can actually walk in there. It was very dark and scary. I have already decided to paint the grey breeze block, white. It's scary because stuff is packed to the ceiling. Another thing I did straight away was get some sturdy stepladders as the fuse box is mounted up near the ceiling. Duh? Anyway, your video was very inspirational for me. I think I will be revisiting it several times. I am an organised sort of lady but my husband wasn't unfortunately. It's got to be the next job as I need a new garage door before winter and access will be needed. Love all your videos. 😊
I didn't want your video to end. 👏 Excellent work. Thank you for sharing this fun adventure and especially the kindness you show to Hans and the 'girls' . 😂👏👏👏🖐😀🇭🇲
Painting the backboard was so the right decision, I think I might have skipped it, but that would have been a mistake. It makes everything so much easier to see.
You're all set now, next time you need 10 tape measures simultaneously you're ready.
You make me want to empty my garage and create proper storage. Very satisfying video . ❤
The tools on the plywood look great and using wall space is smart.
Well done Vikkie, you now have more space to accumulate more stuff😂. Well that's what happens in my workshop😮. Great edit, like the time lapses.👍
Having everything organised is a huge help in both time, not having to search for stuff, and cost, not having 500 tape measures
Get some Jam Jars and screw the lids to the underside of a shelf and then fill the jars with screws / nails and fasten the jars back into the lids. You can have a nice row of screws and nails easily accessible and visible.
Well done!
Enjoying the workshop organisation vlogs lately, very therapeutic. Do any of the outbuildings have a consumer unit or something to wire up a few plug sockets and lights to? Or would getting electrics sorted in your workshop be a bigger job?
How much WD40 😅
I’ve got to throw out my obsolete tools… old cordless drills
