This is what I consider the most efficient layout of my workshop for the work that I do. The main issue for me is storing and managing full sheets of plywood to turn into furniture. It is what I would consider a near perfect setup for me. Yes, it gets very messy very quick. And yes, it gets very cramped in here at times. But it forces me to be smart with my processes and be as efficient as possible.

Your video should be the gold standard for other CZcamsrs. Not only are u good at woodwork , but also making videos. No nonsense, no garbage, no silliness, no annoying music, . Plus I picked up great information, and great tips!. Thank you, and im looking forward to seeing your other videos. cheers from USA! ( San Diego , CA)
You're too kind! Thanks so much :D
This is a massive slap in the face to everyone saying they have no space. Incredible work.
Haha thank you!
When I say I have no space, I mean I live in an apartment building lol. Can't run a tablesaw in my bedroom with neighbors on all sides. Some people literally have no space for a woodshop. Hopefully will move into a place with a garage soon though! This video will come in handy then.
the table saw thing where you pull it out of the wall is genius ill build that
I am very very very new to woodworking, but i've loved CAD/3DS max and making things with those just because i personally enjoy doing it, and i've been second guessing that decent products could be made from plywood, but this really changed my mind about that completely. Its super cool to see whats possible with limited tools and limited space!
Wow, this is a very intelligent workshop.
"Narrower than most single car workshops". 3m wide is a luxury to me. My garage is only 2.5m x 4m. Thanks for the great tips in this video for a small shop.
Young man, you deserve a medal for your organisational skills, well done 👍 for all that you do from such a small workshop 👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
Coming to you via Scott Brown....Tim you are my new fave woodworking channel....will be binge watching!
Cheers Simon! Appreciate it!
Offcuts that will be useful later - I feel ya! So hard to throw away offcuts.
I also keep my rock climbing shoes (in a dusty backpack) in my shop.
I park my car in mine, so my tablesaw is my only workspace, and I work mainly in off cuts. Your off cuts are my gold mine 😂. Great use of space, lots of stuff in a small airea and nothing is too cluttered 👍
This is What I'm Talkin About...finally someone did one of "small" garage workshop similar to what I have...I need ideas!
Thanks for sharing!
always love your videos, you make things look all so simple! thanks
I work in a same-size single car garage and yours is just.. AMAZING!! Very talented. I'm learning a lot from your videos. Thanks!!
Awesome, thank you!
I love this!! it's brilliant! will definitely be inspiration for my future workshop.
Scott Brown suggested your channel. He was right. You have an excellent channel. I’m subscribed.
Awesome! Thank you!
I’m shock!! When I watch you pull the top of your table saw bench 😅. It’s really nice one!!
Awesome workshop and great work!
Nice set up. I have a small one car garage and I need to up my organization game seeing this.
Hey! Great to see another chapter from Off Cuts. Small space efficiency is an art unto itself. My shop is a small single car garage that I still park in when there's not a project underway. My solution was mobile shop stationary tool cabinets. They all nest against the walls. No space for material so I buy what I need for each build. Glad to see you've survived the zombie apocalypse!
Thank you! Everyone's needs and space is different so it's all about doing what works for you! I didn't think there would be much need for putting things on wheels because my shop is so small I got no where to wheel them to haha.
Incredible work done !!!
I like it .
Keep good work going on !
Nice tour. Workshop looks great. More over , you proved in this video that you don’t need fancy stuff to do great work. It’s the skill and passion that matter. Thanks for the tour and the video.
Amazing use of space!
Awesome vid. I too have a small shop. It's constantly getting updated so I can maximize the space I have for the projects I'm making.
Really inspiring stuff man! Just subscribed!
"It's never ending" and that's a good thing! Great ideas in your small shop. New sub.
Indeed! Thanks for the sub!
Thank you for sharing your awesome shop layout with us. Very nice. Stay safe happy and healthy, from Henrico County Virginia
Wonderful shop. Thank you.
So nice workshop! Thanks for showing us!
Thanks!
Thoroughly enjoyed this shop tour, I think that everyone can get something form this.
Great work and shop. Keep it up.😊
Very resourceful. You've given me some great ideas for my own small shop
Awesome! All the best for your shop!
Nice use of space... and good to see more of us Kiwi makers on CZcams.
My shop is a basement with house piles that I dance around ... (hmmm I should actually do a video of dancing around the house piles... oh it's a love hate thing) lol
Great video, thanks for making it. Quite inspiring really.
Genius! Thanks for the tour 👏🌹🇦🇺✌️
Dude, can't believe youtube has only shown me your channel now, you're a bloody LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha Cheers!
Great job!
Impressive! Efficient! Thank you for a great video that inspires us all. Good luck with your business.
I take a similar approach to my work ute, I’m a one man band sparky and work out of 1800x1800 tool box canopy. You just have to use the space wisely and carry/order what you need at the time for the next job. I find the smaller the space the more organised you are and time management is improved.
Way to make the most of your space. 👍🏻 I’m doing a similar setup in a 16’ cube van, which isn’t all that much smaller.
Dude I always love your videos. Keep it up
Thanks!!
awesome work, keep it up!
Well done!! Great ideias, thanks for sharing.
Also, I love the coffee table. Love the design, and functionality. I will be buying the plans. I like that it has magazine storage, and clean lines.
Thanks John! Appreciate it!
Such a well thought out and simple layout. The portable bench looks like it makes a big difference too.
Definitely does! I didn’t think I would use it this much
Great use of space. I'm watching this with Scott and I think I just saw him drool.
Were you watching this while eating burgers again? Thanks Jess!
@@TheOffcut haha no it was steak, but sadly I don't think my cooking can compete with a sweet workshop! 😆
@@dressjess Haha. Try season the food with sawdust?
So cool. I like how you made your workshop and put your clamps and tools in good use and the cabinets and table and portable workbench
Thank you very much!
Sweet shop!
Impressive work 👍
Well done!
Wonderful organization 👏👏👏👍🏼
You are one crafty fellow my friend👍
Kudos for making such great use of so little space. It's inspirational, especially as you're proof again that it's skill the matter most of all, not a big, fancy workshop or hundreds of tools : )
Thank you so much!
Just creativity…at its maximum exponential…congrats ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much!
I have watch you building your shop for a while and it really is laid out well. I would like to give you one suggestion that will make cutting full sheets of plywood very easy in your small shop. I built a panel saw cutting system that hold the sheet at 12 degrees to allow me to cut it easily in any direction. I built the detachable pieces to mount (in under 2 minutes) to my garage door (when down) and also modified it to mount to my 52" tablesaw (several videos). If you watch the first one ("cutting plywood in a small shop"), I think you will be able to take the idea and modify a system to work in your shop as well. Cutting plywood sheets is so easy now for me, I think you will find it can work for you too. Keep up the great videos and stay safe :>)
Thanks for this, it is very inspiring as my shop is similar in size. Now I can scrap the frustration and move forward. The table saw idea is very practical and the quality of your work indicates that you don't have a wobbling issue as previously stated by sad...
Thanks! Its probably my shaky hands holding the camera haha. I've jumped and climbed on the table saw with it pulled out and it has no issues. All the best for your shop!
Wow I'm impressed. First time on your channel so of course I subscribed. Going to check out more of your videos now. So much for sleeping :)
Good video, thanks !!
Beautiful 👍
Hell yes. Love it!
Abs brilliant mate
Cheers!
So cool to see a fellow nzer doing this. I have subbed hello from the Wairarapa.
Awesome! Cheers!
Impressive how you work with a lot of stuff in that space. I have a shop a bit bigger at 4 x 6.5 meters
Mate, this is nothing short of inspiring.
Appreciate it!
bumped into this channel as you do wandering about on youtube! Some great ideas. My garage workshop is almost identical to yours being a small 1950's house in the UK. I have to have a full walk through as no side access to garden (dim 1950's builders) I have replaced the up and over garage door with an electric shutter and have installed a 2.5 metre electric awning outside that allows a bit more rain free cover. Will explore your other videos….. oh yes like your idea for a temp saw horse workbench, ive pencilled a make for one of these as I have 1/2 doz of these cheap gizmos.
Hey thanks! I also have a back door to access the back garden. But have blocked it off with the plywood cart. But easy enough to wheel it out of the way if I ever need to get to it. The awning sounds great. Unfortunately my driveway is on a slope so it's not that practical to work on it.
Thanks for replying - sucks about that hardware not being available outside Newzealand. I’ll keep looking.
Great work and proof you do not need wildly expensive tools to turn out excellent results Very impressive
Thanks!
Ok so just found this channel and was so amazed how well documented I think is the correct word to use it is and your content is amazing and so high quality I love to watch your videos and hope I can make a youtube channel just half as good would be incredible. Even though I live in the uk and am a teen woodwork enthusiast I would love to meet you one day so just make sure to keep the superb content up
Thanks for the comment! I really appreciate it. Good luck with your woodworking journey! Maybe we will meet one day!
Very nice
Great video
Thank you. Over these years I also trained myself to move away from videos broadcasting bigger shops and more expensive/fancier tools (like festoons etc)
Subscribed - great walk around, I work in my own single garage (UK based) so will definitely be adopting some of these
Thanks!
Shapr3D is legendary!
Talk about making the most of what you have! It's funny how we live in this spacious, relatively sparsely populated country yet so many of us have small workshops. Having said that I think you've proven that 6 x 3 is enough to make it work - and making a living off it at that! 👍
Thanks Rob! Efficiency is a big factor in a workshop or any work environment for me. I've seen huge workshops that were so badly laid out that there was so much dead space that made the shop seem half the size. But I think bigger spaces can be a bit of a trap in thinking that you have lots of space so you can just put stuff anywhere and eventually lose half of your workshop haha.
@@TheOffcut Yeah and I think being tidy (or not) is a big factor in efficiency and that's where bigger spaces can start to seem much smaller and become quite dysfunctional. Layout, flow, and process are probably more important to success than anything. (success = ability to output to standard within time constraint in this case)
Wow good lad.
Nice video. Great shop. Cool custom organizers. Mahalo for sharing! 🐒🙂
Thank you very much!
Some really good ideas. Cheers.
Thanks!
对于业余爱好者来说这个木工房配置很完备了，而且非常整洁舒适，不错！
Nice workshop
Thanks 👍
Great video
Thanks!
Awesome workshop, man. I too have a small workshop and though its sometimes a lot of work, it can be done!
Thanks! It sure can!
I would love to have a work shop as big as yours is.
I live in an apartment, and have to run up and down stairs, to take my table saw out side to make cuts.
I think this is the first time I've heard you speak. Excellent layout for efficiency.
Haha, yes, voice over's is harder than I thought. Still need more practise to speak clearly and naturally for recording
@@TheOffcut your speaking was just fine. Keep up the good work.
Nice video :) very efficient use of your space. Subbed. I really like the the idea of hanging the clamps on the side of the worksbench. I will try to copy that hehe. I have them all piled up in a big drawer now.
Thanks! I like having everything at arms reach and easy to access, especially when I quickly need an extra clamp or 2
Damn this is amazing
Fantastic video 🤘
Thank you!
Very n8ce workshop and nice work. Could you please make a video about how you make kitchens ? Thank you.
Great video. Could you do a couple on Shapr 3D. Be very useful to see the basic functions. Thanks
Lesson learned - drawer runners are super handy for small spaces!
With that thumbnail I was thinking ooohh nice a new scott brown vid. Still clicked out of curiosity😆
Hahaha sorry to disappoint :P. Wish I was as good looking as that man.
That portable bench is a great idea! Need to figure out if I can hide one in my garage.
Haha its definitely handy to have!
Muito legal a oficina, estou trabalhando para esse sonho.
3 meters wide... what a luxury! i have a 2x7 size shop, but i lose some of it due to bike storage (i have several bikes)
NICE
Hi mate. Thank you for the video. Great job)))) Could you please write where you usually by an Oak plywood? Cheers, V
thank you for your video good ideas.
my daer could you please tell me what is the program you are used for designing a table on the tablet and where l can get it . mybe there are some mistake because my English is not good so I'm apologize
I have the same tracksaw.
31 dislikers have never had a pile of offcuts getting out of control
Scott brown sent me and I’m glad I came. Love your work, I’m a carpenter in Australia who wants to get into cabinet and furniture making. Your stuff looks great
Thanks! And thanks Scott Brown! haha
Great job sir..what's app u used draw plans. Sketch??
i love your videos and i just want to know how did transition or start your business. I'm a furniture maker too but im a welder and wanna get my hands on some plywood but i dont have a ute and i'm at work 6 days a week how would you work around getting material delivered to your house but not being there to unload it
