LEVELING UP my workshop! - Building a second story in my garage workshop
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 11. 2022
- Today we’ll build a mezzanine in my garage workshop. On the top we will build an office, and underneath will be the home of Neckbeard Laboratories, where any "tinker" activities will take place.
This is a "residential" mezzanine usually used in loft apartments to gain some extra space. It's a little over 155 square feet in area. I also carefully chose the height to strike a good balance between both levels. Curtis, who is 6’ 4”, can easily clear both the office and the laboratory, but the workshop has 13’+ ceilings.

Yep, we’re gonna need you to install a slide.
Not a slide. Way to much space requered. I would say a firepole
@@Nylander2004 yeah but Oscar can’t go down a fire pole 😂
@@Jamesfrancosdog then a pubvator
@@Nylander2004 need something his little one can have fun on. Slide and a zip-line to the bike work bench.

I love watching Seth go from his little place in Florida to this. Much deserved.
That is so true
yes, I was thinking about his little dark storage room with more than 11 bikes in it and he was trying to take one of them out, also remember he was dropping f bombs in every video, good old days.
from riding a fat bike in the water to see it float! haha
he's the reason I bought a diamondback mission pro. seeing him 360 it sold me
That is so freaking hilarious that Oscar has his own lab badge pass 😂😂 thanks Seth for cheering us up!!
Lol
No, that's not a lab pass, it's a frenchie pass.
@@LongPeter 🤣
He deliberately chose "bad" photos, too, in true photo ID fashion
@@ThexImperfectionist yeah the look on Oscar’s face in the id photo is priceless 😂😂
The amount of work this guy does single handedly is insane
I admire his discipline to stay on task
He's up at 5am
I feel like everyone getting a shop upgrade this week! Matt Jones, Colin furze, Seth!
Didn’t Matt jones delete that video?
@@charleshazen5779 got to love collin
Colins shop is on a whole other level at this point. well deserved though 👌🏼
Seth should have got Colin to come build his mezzanine, those steel girders could survive a nuclear holocaust! I'd be slightly concerned about this one though, judging by the skinny legs and the wobble at 3:01 😬 no hate, just an observation.
@@charleshazen5779 Probably wasn't a great idea to advertise the amount of insanely irreplaceable (to him) stuff was in a barn somewhere in the UK.
Love how Seth is following the step of any printer owner and find any excuse available to use it.
seeing Seth grow has been an honor to watch. i remember watching his first 3 minute videos and now we have almost professionally edited videos… it’s incredible
😊
goofy ah coment
Cool story
almost? lol
I remember the days when all your videos were voiceovers and you barely spoke on camera. It's been so cool to see your confidence grow in making videos as well as your skills.
Congrats old man!!! When exactly did you go full father of the bride? Hey success!
This by far is one of the most impressive channels in all of CZcams (imo).
Crazy to me how Seth only has 2.5MM subs.
I'ts great but by far not the best.(imho ;) )
@@yvesstocky9936 "one of"
I'll say it. Seth, you work hard. I feel like, in the world of CZcams, you've never rested on your laurels through anything...multiple injuries, weather, a pandemic, etc. Even your fellow CZcamsr friends always acknowledge that you're always working. The reason you've succeeded, is because you WORK HARD at it, and take it as a job, rather than an extension of a hobby that makes money. It never ceases to amaze me to see all of the things you've accomplished with your channel, and how you've impacted "the real world" as well. Your channel is not only the gold standard for MTB content, but most CZcams channels could benefit greatly from copying the quality of your content! That's not said to diminish anything other content creators are doing, but it's a testament to WHY you're the gold standard. You get out what you put in....and your commitment is obvious! I look back now and see your older videos and think, "WOW! Was it really THAT long ago when Seth did that?" Thanks for all of the years of entertainment!
Berm peak is the most wholesome CZcamsr but extremely entertaining to to watch
The entire time I was watching I was thinking "man that office would be better downstairs where you have some windows". Then, viola. So jealous of your shop.
Berm Peak's content Just keeps on getting better and better
The Drama tribute plate had me in tears. Well done for keeping him in ours, and your memory, while still giving Oscar the best life he can have.
Ive been watching since the fat bike in the ocean video and i am really glad to say what an experience it has to see Seths progression with building his own stuff.
It doesn't make sense how excited I am for you. Watching you grow these past few years has been an incredible journey. Love watching you put in the work and succeed.
I love how you're good at what you do but still honestly get to the "I'm in over my head!" point too: it helps to see other people struggle on their way to great heights! Thank you for your sharing and sincerity :)
“I thought they were gonna be made out of chilean sea bass!” - Seth. The best quote yet!
“Complete Shambles!” Florida on a deck was the best set up!
absolute honor and privelege following Seth's journey, watching him upgrade all the things in 2022 has been absolutely wild.
Proof that having nice things doesn't come without hard work! Very admirable, Seth!
I know this is a "mountain biking" channel but man do I enjoy watch Seth build stuff
This pre-fab mezzanine is pretty awesome. Could actually be a potential solution for a project I had in mind. Did you anchor it to the wall? If not, I'm curious to hear how stable it is just standing on 4 legs with no cross beam supports on the sides for rigidity? Like, I understand it's anchored to the floor but I'm wondering how much it flexes with all that weight sitting on just 4 poles of vertical tubing with no cross bracing (especially since the vertical tubes AND the floor "joists" are actually two pieces bolted together for adjustability).
If you watch close when they’re doing the railing you can spot what look like wooden spacers between the mezzanine and the wall. My guess is that he did tie it in via those.
I was wondering how stable that thing is, too. If I were to design this there would definitely be a cross cable or two, which you tension to make the structure stable.
As a structural engineer, that thing absolutely needs some form of lateral bracing or else wobbling is inevitable. The joist splices also make me pretty uneasy but I’m sure they rate it for a certain imposed live load (weight of furniture and anything else). And we all know that we’ve never seen Seth push something to it’s limits. 😂
The fact that you did not find some way to dangerously session that mezzanine without the railing AND you solved the railing right away instead of leaving it shows real growth lol. I'm not sure how to feel about that but it looks great!
Your the reason im so into mtb now so thanks seth
wow seth really put all his heart and soul into this one, I love these kinds of videos sometimes I even look back on old videos where he used to design and arrange his workshop in berm creek ... good times
Definitely look into the 3D-printed "Gridfinity" organizing system for the lab below! There's tons of opportunity to give every little tool its own dedicated spot in each drawer, or on any of the work surfaces. It was started by Zack Freedman, and tons of people have added their own custom holders for pretty much anything, and if you can't find one for something you need to organize, make one!
Gridfinity seems like something Seth would absolutely love haha. The bike stuff, rc stuff, camera stuff, an excuse to do hundreds of hours of printing to satisfy ocd levels of organization and efficiency... Perfect
I was about to suggest the same thing!
I never thought Seth's garage would ever look like this. From a back patio, to a garage, and to a dream mansion of a garage 🤙
Seth, you consistently impress me with how hard you work. Huge project, beautifully executed.
Fairy Tale workshop/lab/office. A dream come true!
Man as much as I love the mountain bike videos, I secretly love shop builds more coming from a carpentry background. I would definitely put some plywood shielding in the corner where the smasher is to protect the wall. Maybe wainscoting or some nice bead board. Excellent job!
Thats a cool looking deck . Its a lil different but kind of the same
Seth, you're incredible. Never change.
I remember watching this channel back when Seth lived in Florida, and now has his he and his channel grown so much. It's really nice to see how high quality his content is, and how entertaining, yet informative the videos usually are.
Great build video. Love it how Seth delays big projects until the last minute and then gets it all done in a day. This would be a week-long project for any other human being. The result looks great, too!
I found your content a week ago and have binged loads and rewatched the garage builds. Good stuff!
Garage looks great! Excited to see more of your videos pop-up. I know it’s been a busy year with the park opening and we’re very happy for the success of that but I honestly miss seeing you work on and ride your trails there at Berm Peak. I don’t think I’ve even seen you ride the last jump feature you built yet. Always a supporter of your channel!
The new standard for workshops everywhere 🫡
I literally hate riding bikes, but I love this channel to death and have watched almost every single video. Keep up the great work, cheers
The 90s science/technology video soundtrack at the end was a nice touch.
man i didnt think the shop could get any better than it already was but this is absolutely amazing
To look back and see what the garage was when you first bought this house, to the ramps, the "stairs," all the additions and now this transformation, I'm always impressed to see what you keep coming up with, Seth!
I've been away from the world of cycling for a while, and i've gotta say it's nice to see you walking seemingly without problems.
I hope you're all healed up and doing great!
That was an incredible amount of work to do (predominantly) alone. Well done! It looks fantastic!
what a dream setup in that garage. one day, I will have my own garage like this.
Me too...one day...
Anxiously awaiting the ride down the stairs !!
I greatly appreciate this mans dedication to detail and OCD.
If you don't get inspired from Seth you're crazy. No matter if you mountain bike. The amount of creativity this guy holds is absolutely nutty. Makes me want to buy / do stuff I have no business doing. Love it!
Seth your a legend mate,seriously love how you can do so many cool things so well.That is an amazing new work space.
Hope the heat isn't too bad in the office area in the summer, being now elevated where all the hot air gets trapped. Amazing video!
Seth's cable management is on point!
Love these building videos the most! So inspiring
Nothing better than a workshop cleaning montage. Looks great!
The music selection on this episode is probably then best I’ve ever seen
I had to stop at the 0:38 mark and comment. Seth, you make some phenomenal content brother. The way you put clips together and the level of detail! It does not go un-noticed. Keep up the great work! Always a pleasure watching your videos.
seth doing all this together proofs his dedication and love for us love u bro
I have to admit that Seth has amazing creativity and space management skills to pull this off.
Not only does it make the workshop look better aesthetically, but also builds an improved working environment. This is every cyclist's dream workshop.
Would be awesome if you had a berm peak flag mounted somewhere💯
He does. Up high above the woodworking area, to the left of the bikes on the wall
Wow! That's an amazing transformation. What an ingenious use of that tall space. The sky-lights are the classiest, but the wooden rails match with the workbench; it's picturesque. Fantastic handy work, Seth. 'Hats off to you.
Remember the days this garage was a big empty space? Now it needs a mezanine! Great job, Seth!
I would be so paranoid that those 4 thin support pars would just snap
I love the SD/microSD card holder with "imported" "needs to imported" tagged on it. Is that an open file?
I really like the 3d printed screw driver holders
Look at how far you've come! Awesome!
Anyone else worried about racking or shear forces on those 4 legs? I think I would sleep better seeing some cross bracing or something.
I was wondering the same thing since it was moving a little when Seth was on top of it. Although it’s made out of steel I would feel a lot more comfortable if it was braced to the wall or cross braced to each column
most ambitious project yet! i freakin love your stuff seth!
I feel like maybe building an entire bike park was more ambitious but this is pretty cool, too.
You creativity always inspires me, thank you!
Bloody heck, Seth! That is amazing! Fantastic job! Absolutely fantastic.
Excellent upgrade to the Berm Peak shop! Thanks for sharing the new space and build. I am very curious in the light panels you installed to the underside of the mezzanine, are you able to share where you sourced those? Thanks - ES (Seattle)
The only problem is how are you going to get up there once you hurt yourself again…
Gotta say ive been here since the beggining from florida to berm creek to berm peak as well as the newly founded berm park, and i ust say through seeing his acomplishments it has given me the confidence to start riding mtb's and to start a small buisness of building them. The work hes put into his career and life are truly mesmerizing and i give him my upmost respect. Thank you for touching so manies lifes through our freetime or our question and i hop for only the best with your daughter, your family, and your youtube channel and im glad ive been here adn will continue to be here for all of it. Thank you Seth Alvo.
600!
Great to see you grow since the beginning. Such an awesome shop, space, mindset and culture you are forging. ❤️
This video is unlisted and in the playlist lol
Lmao
What about the recording booth?
Wow. That's awesome. Good job 👍. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Love how organised and practical you are, can you call my wife? 🤣🤘
Great stuff Seth, have a great 2023!
Oh man…..I get it, but I so loved the old office! When I closed my eyes, sometimes I beamed myself to that couch!
Can’t believe how far this channel has come since fat bike surfing the cruise ship wave.
Now the shop is Seth up for doing everything.
So much more room for activities, and the skylights are an amazing touch!
It looks awesome! I can't believe how much energy you have!👍👍👍👍
Seth you are the best youtube in the world and I am Oslo a mountainbiker and l love it I started biking with my mom and l love jumping and I live in Michigan
I just noticed the park tool sticker on the wooden stool. Amazing
Loving the PilotWings Muzak during the build!
I never comment on anything, but I am obsessed with your workshops/Garage builds
It has been an awesome ride with you from the back yard in Florida, to Berm Creek and then Berm peak! Then we got to see your dream realized in Berm Park. It is so monumental to get the next iteration of the Berm Peak garage! Always amazing! Thanks Seth!🤘
I've been watching your videos for about six years, and now that I don't like biking that much, I still love your videos.
I was already jealous of the garage setup - now it's on a whole new level (pun intended).
Hello Seth. I am a very old fellow from BC Canada. I bought my only mountain bike in 1982. I sold it just last year to a fellow my age but much less arthritic. I now ride a fat-tire step through electric bike. It is literally one small step above a mobility scooter which will likely be my next purchase. I just stumbled upon your channel 2 weeks ago and I have been binge watching your content on here and your other channel. You seem like a really decent guy and you love dogs. So all thumbs up. Cheers from the left edge of Canada. ~ulrich
That cable management! Chef's kiss!
What a satisfying video!
It's so nice to watch, you're a real doer!
By far one of the coolest shops in youtube
This is brilliant! It looks amazing! Way to go on the evolution of the shop! Hopefully this setup will treat you well!
Simply wow, you are not only a handy man but you are a great story teller as well
I started my channel because of you Seth. You’re very inspirational and always make me smile. Love the build. Wish I could do that to my garage.
I'm seriously impressed. Fantastic use of the space. Blessing to you bud.
I love the kinda builds. Always very interesting to see what’s next. The changes and the upgrades keep it interesting
Very enjoyable watching the evolution of this space!
It seems you have everything under control 🙌
This guys OCD to tidiness is my life in a nutshell. Gorgeous setup dude!!! 😊
