    Hi Simone,
    It's me Will Pemble, the guy who built that roller coaster on Netflix. To celebrate the kicking of Brian's Unholy Ass, I'd be happy to come and build for you a cantilevered roller coaster around the walls of your shop. You can climb aboard at the top of your stairs, then circumnavigate the shop on your way down to the ground floor.
    Kindly,
    Will

    Build a giant foam model of GlaDOS to hang from the ceiling. This will absorb a lot of the echo, also if you could balance it and have it rotate on a servo to follow people, that would be awesome. The queen of robots and the robot queen together forever. And your double braid haircut showing off Brian's door is so cute. Makes you look like some super cool anime scientist. Have fun in your new shop.

    Congrats on the new space!!
    As someone who lives in his workshop, in a small Brooklyn NY apartment that I think was built on a dare because there's not one single 90 degree angle to be found amidst all its "pre-war charm", I would love to see your ideas for storing tools and components in very small or awkwardly formed spaces. I can tell your new workshop is a lot more room to work in than you're used to - for me, I think I would have spent time running in circles like a child for about two or three hours. Since working in a small space makes single tools with multiple functions a lot more attractive, maybe you have some ideas from your apartment/workshop days for multi-purpose, but still functional tools, and clever storage ideas to share with us who are still balancing the living and workshop situation.

    A thought on dividing walls - I have a similar shop space (not nearly as white!) The dividing walls I built (some time ago) served their purpose at the time but are now a pain. If I had my time again I'd make them of the same material (plywood sheet) but make them semi-portable / demountable. I'd also make a dedicated set with wheeled stands with one side finished in acoustic insulation / fabric wrap as giant baffles to reduce reverberation / noise when filming...

    A hammock under the stairs. A firepole on the right that can double as a stripper pole. A shelf that's so tall you need one of those slidey ladders like in a library to get stuff. That one might be too much work to be practical. Brick wall = climbing wall. The toilet should have a sound box, so instead of a flush it makes a random silly noise. An epic coffee/espresso maker. A good sound system for music while you work. Karaoke set up optional.

  • @therealpbristow
    @therealpbristow Pƙed 5 lety

    Hi SImone! Here's a boringly practical suggestion: Create a not-so-echoey corner or zone, for recording in. The high roof (and the walls leading up to it) is the main contributor to the echo, so try putting a pair of clothes rails up as high as they'll go, with a blanket suspended between them. (They'll probably need weighing down and anchoring to stop the blanket just pulling them over.) Do a couple of test recordings, one under the blanket and one outside this "sound tent": If it seems to be working then maybe build a more permanent frame (probably higher, too, so you don't have to worry about the "tent" getting into shot. Might lalso be wise to fire-proof the blanket, just in case of sparks flying about while you work. Just adding a few soft objects about the place will help break up the echo too. (How about nice squishy armchair for when you just want to take a quick break, or read a manual? If anyone asks why you need it, it's "highly cost effective acoustic treatment". =:o} )
    If you take up this suggestion (and if it works!), then I'll know *at last* that my 4 years studying acoustics were not *completely* wasted! =;o}

    +1 for the fire pole, although that'd interrupt either the kitchen location or the door to the editing suite. I'd say keep it as open as possible. Sub-divide it too much and it'll be like working at the bottom of a well.
    Get a decent bench in there (about the size of a bay of industrial racking) but make sure you can get a US truck sized vehicle between it and the roller shutter door.

    You probably have plans for This already, but check out some acoustic dampening plates for the ceiling, to start with. Just covering the ceiling with acoustic dampeners does soo much for the acoustics. It could get pretty tiring using heavy tools in that room without any dampening. Love your space!! Happy for you!

    My propositions for a clean and cool workshop :)
    - A toboggan because it is SO cool and you can go downstair fast and with class (but also because toboggan is such a funny word)
    - A homemade giant pendulum or a giant clock, it will matched with your giant hanger
    - A pool or a big aquarium with colorful lights and jellyfishs
    - Paints made by some robots
    - And a big screen where you can put your scripts on ;)

    Turn your stairs into a convertible slide. Put servos on your stair treads, so you could flip a switch and turn it into a slide! That way no microphone crunching, and pain sliding down the rail. Plus it would prevent people from coming up the stairs to bother you while you are in your office!

    Upgrades i can think of immediately are
    -Make as many benches as possible on wheels. There's never enough bench space, and modularity is key.
    -Dust collector. The bigger the shop the harder to keep clean. Upgrade from the little festool ASAP.
    -Ventilation. If you don't have an exhaust system already get one. Especially when you start to getting into paints, epoxys, burning circuitry, etc.
    -STORAGE, STORAGE, STORAGE. keep your tabletops clear, and your stuff organised.
    -Extension cord reels from the ceiling have been a godsend for me. Might want to think about it.
    -Use your vertical space. My shop has 15' ceilings so i built Racking up high for long term/low use items and material. Still accessible but out of my work area.
    Hope this helps.

    Just hang rugs and tapestries on the wall... it will help insulate in an easy/quick and non permanent way. Less echo, and might also help with outdoor noise and even the heat and cooling bill. You can also mist your windows windows plain water and line the glass with bubble wrap. The water sticks the plastic to the window and the air bubbles insulate but the clear plastic still lets in light. Also quick/easy and non permanent.

  • @inkno701

    You could build a rock climbing wall up to the second floor or like others have said a fireman's pole or a slide. And going with the pigeon idea you could put a sting or cable going from the second floor down to the other side with a fake pigeon with a clamp for feet to deliver messages across the shop with maybe a little propeller to power it back up the string. With those awesome high ceilings you can do all kinds of drone stuff and maybe with some preprogramed ones to move smalls things or baskets around the shop or up high on the wall on a hook for storage.
    Glad to see you happy and well! Thanks for all the amazing videos!

    • @SPECTR_Eternal

      Honestly, considering that she just got out of a hospital, I'd suggest a "smart" fireman's pole.
      Make a pole, make a wooden "stair" that goes around the pole and is connected via hard ropes at the top of the pole with a gear system, so when you slide down the pole the system counter-weights you (yes, there will be some kind of counter-weight there somewhere) and doesn't allow you to just fall down if your grip shakes or shit. It'd be a fancy-ass elevator, basically, that you'll need to rope back up after you take the stairs up there.
      It's both fun, 'cause it's a fucking fireman's pole, safe, 'cause there's a fucking counter-weight system, and fitness-y, 'cause you'll need to rope that fucking shit up everytime you wanna use it to get down.
      Also, I'd honestly make the staircase railings a bit... Sturdier, really. And would probably make some kind of staircase support underneath. That shit looks way too insecure and easily breakable.

Women are very under-represented in the cubing community (Yes that is a thing and I am part of it) You inspire so many people and by you learning to solve it would inspire many others to finally learn to solve it instead of just peeling the stickers off or just giving up.

    Its definitely healthier to separate your own homespace and workspace. When you are overwhelmed by work you at least have a home to go back to, recharge and go again instead of trapping yourself within the same space with the mix of work and home. Some might prefer to combine it but at least have it separated with a wall or different room.

      Hey Steve Little. I meant my comment to be a fun light hearted thing. No ill intent at all. Simone is known for making shitty robots and with her struggling to remember a few lines a bit like an actor does sometimes. They call off to someone else "Line?" And someone shouts it. I was just thinking it would be funny if Simeone had a shitty robot drone that could do that only instead of giving her the line. It makes the situation worse by not working right in some way or just making it harder to do the scene because of its sound. Isn't that exactly how all her shitty robots work? They try do a thing like feed you popcorn but end up just being hilariously bad at that thing but of course within that you can see all the engineering skill that went into it. Ho hum you didn't see the fun of it and instead saw it as something mean or bad in some way. I don't know because your dig at me wasn't specific so I'm over explaining it here and of course killing any humour the comment had. At least a few people seem to get it was all in good fun from the likes.
