This week on Horders!
After 8 years my shop looks about the same. If I need something, I start to find it by trying to remember the last time I saw it. That will give me a hint how deep under a pile it will be.
The only way I got rid of crap is by downsizing. A 4-bedroom house with a 2-car garage, to a 2-bedroom 2-bath apartment, to a 35ft toy hauler. It took 6 years, but I have 10% less clutter now.
@@ronjones-6977 I just bought a farm with a big machine shed and a big shop 4 car garage with 4 53 ft semi trailers with the axles removed I have plenty of storage
Finally a really smart woman that isn't afraid to work. Well done!
WE ALL Have the same situation! But in the middle of cleaning I sent my Carb out to be reconditioned ( Yup Ethanol strikes again ), installed a dual stage fuel pressure regulator ( A cool Aeromotive unit ) on the 68 Camaro,and changed the clutch in her. Oh yes a new pinion seal in the Camaros 9". But I have to tell you guys that I love this vid. EVERYBODY go's through this cleaning chaos thing but your the only people that share the everyday Hot Rodders dilemas in real life. I talked with you two at the last Power tour about how real and down to earth your channel is and most of us identify with all the challenges we face . For example the stuff that "Bolts right on ". Used engines that are puked and the list goes on. So PLEASE stay with your hearts and put up what you think is interesting. Because we identify with it and love it .

I pulled the fuel tank out of my 1980 Toyota Pickup Project, cleaned the frame and painted the frame axles and fuel tank with POR15 This was rewarding to watch!
It's gonna happen, a little dirt won't hurt. It adds Character and better than a picture you'll always remember that day!
Great job ! As a mechanic my self I know how it is to decide what to keep and what not to keep, and how nice it is to have a clean work area! Keep up the awesome videos!
If I throw something out I need it a couple weeks later
Productive work right there. It is a good feeling to have a clean and organized shop. I'm working on a 1987 Jeep XJ. A 30 day road trip/adventure travel is planned as soon as we can travel. :)
You guys are one of my favorites couples. Out of all the people I know, CZcams or real life, the best. 😂🤣👌🏼💯💘
I have same problem, I go in my shop and I'm like, ok, I'm gonna pitch anything I don't need...2 hours later; "hey, I can use this for xx project..thats still good, just need to rebuild it... I'll need those used lifters.... At the end of the day, I walk out ashamed of my lack of will power with my ridiculously small bag of trash...😔😒
Got a good laugh from that. Sounds familiar.
This was so satisfying to watch, now I need to go clean out my garage.
helped my mate clean up his workshop 2 weeks ago, was hard work, but, geez we felt so happy after it was done !!
Your ambition got my mojo going - cleaned my shop, EASTER morning during an April snow storm (4" ) ... Lakeville MN
Hi from UK, I’m still working as I am considered a “key worker” but spare time stuck at home is going to a last push on the rebuild of my 1973 Triumph Stag. In the last 18 months I’ve stripped it, put it on a jig, spent hours welding in new floors and making panels then given it a full respray. It’s now all back together bar the engine which I am just rebuilding now, so never know when the lockdown eases I may be able to drive it again!
God bless you and keep you all safe at this difficult time.
Awesome clean up ..chuffed you got that sorted........remember...... "A clean workshop is a safe work shop"have a great clean day folks
I've adjusted the clutch on my new to me 1969 Triumph Trident, third time is a charm! Installed bar end mirrors which are needed for inspection, then tags!
I have a shop that is like that also...my son told me that I have more projects than I have time left in my life! Had to think about that. Love your channel.
That's alright, tell him he can take over. He does help out though right?
I work in facilities management at the Ohio University Southern here in Ohio, 25 years on midnight's I know when to start heavy disinfecting, the summer quarter is slow, fall heavy/more students, yadayada, point being is I am a supervisor and I started making my team disinfect on a regular basis thru the flu and cold season, I like to think that this has kept confidence in my Dean, our techs n engineers and the office staff safe, I (we) don't get the pat on the back, but I see it now, i'm not here to wear a cape, it's going to take all of us to recover. stay safe an God bless.
There is nothing wrong with piles of stuff as long as you know what is in the piles and where the part you need is. It's called an organized mess. LOL. Now if you can't find what you know you have, or have something and don't even know it, well then it's organizing time. Love you vids. Be safe!
During the shutdown, I am slowly working on my old Chevy truck. Since I don't have a garage to use, it's been a challenge, but I will keep at it.
If you place those engines and transmissions on pallets, and make a box of pallets around it. You will hace a pallet bench at no cost to u. There is a lot of wasted space in there. Love u guys😉😅
Ok I'm motivated now gonna put yall's channel on the shop screen and clean organise and build my shelves that have been sitting , everyone have a great day !!!
I'd love a flat enough garage/driveway for more roller racks/cases. Got an 8x16ft shed with two those metal racks, and parts from EVERY car inside. Inventory is the best though :)
Just looked at my in home shop and now I feel it needs cleaned too, very badly. I build lawn mower and go kart engines in a room in my house converted to a small engine build and repair shop and I been so busy over the winter that things got a lot messy. I got a 20+hp over-sized forged pistons, a forged crankshaft with dual 26mm Mikuni carbs and nos that I can't wait to try out. Stay safe.
I’ve been cleaning my mechanics and contractors tools during the shutdown. After 25-30 hours I think I have refurbished, cleaned and sorted half of my stash. You just have to push on in these projects. Remember, the hardest part is starting...
gr8 job guys! just been workin on the boat! Finishing up a major trailer and boat remodel to make it easier for this old geezer to use! :)
Building shop cabinets, rebuilding carbs on trail bikes, uhf radio install, lumber racks, a million and one jobs around the house that I’ve been meaning to get to for five years
I'm working. Grocery distribution centers rely on forklifts to move product to stores. Gotta keep our techs and theirs in parts to keep the fleets moving. The supply chain will not be stopped. Not if I have any say in the matter.
Get a conex box for your backyard for storage If you get 2 you can put rafters and a roof on and have a carport
Don't worry, I think alot of peoples shops look like that...it happens...it's easy to turn out the lights and shut the door and say you'll do it tomorrow. I am cleaning up mine now too, probably in similar shape to yours. I like Aaron's comment about hardware getting zinged off the wire wheel never to be found again... Hilarious!!!....I have the same issue in that area of my garage!
Great episode you two the shop looks great nice job !
I had to go to the store today for the first time in 8 days. I must be the only person on lockdown. I saw more people out than normal. I really dig the new Ford, stay safe guys!
Garage sale and swap meet in the future. Just put a oil pump in my Silverado that's what I did for the weekend and clean up junk I had piled up over the winter. Always awesome work and videos you two make. 👍🤘
Hey y'all, please be careful around mice droppings. Dust form mice droppings can make you very sick, I was cleaning out my storage shed in my yard a couple years ago, I ended up with a respiratory infection from the mice droppings. Please wear a respirator when dealing with meeces feces. Stay safe y'all.
I doing final prep on my '64 Corvair Monza Convertible getting it ready for paint, hope to squirt it within the next 2 weeks.
I've been in my garage mounting a electric cut off valve.. electric fuel pump... and a secondary fuel filter to install a 65gal. for my in-bed diesel tank for new f250
Don't store tires vertically. They will flat spot. Store them flat with cardboard below and between each one.
I've personally never had a problem with radials but had bias shake for a few days I imagine weather conditions could vary results
I'm a bit concerned many people don't seem to be taking social distancing very seriously!
So glad y'all are taking it seriously! So many others aren't................
I am very worried about my American friends, and the scary and huge USA pandemic numbers!
Please take care, my friends!
Way to keep it real! Ready for another year of projects.
The garage nicely tidy and everything is labeled so that you will find something in future. Now I have to clean up my garage, the biggest obstacle is my health, not enough energy. And there is always an emergency job in between, that does not help to start the cleanup.
The shop looks great! I wish I could get motivated to do that in mine and get my 70 mach 1 done and my 71 455 lemans done too. But I lost my dad on March 1st and just don't have it in me right now. I have a wonderful wife but she doesn't have the interest to work on cars. Oh well. You two work so great together and are such a cute couple.
Loved the video! I have been spending my time finishing up this semester in school and also finishing up all the metalwork on my 280z. Zen is a big inspiration and I am trying to have mine drivable for this summer!
Y’all Will Never Ever Never Find ANYTHING Again,Experience Talking Here ,Great videos !!! Thank You !!!

Working on my 1977 Kawasaki KZ650!
Thanks for opening your home and lives for us.
That new chrome wire shelf you bought-they are great, but be careful how much weight you put on them with casters that thread into the bottom. ALL the load is on those threaded studs and they are prone to breaking if they aren't REALLY heavy duty. Otherwise the shelves themselves hold a lot of weight
encore recyclers in Garland off of Shiloh and Forest is still open for business and the owners are awesome. Its Family owned.
i would offer to help but i live in az. it is fun to clean up garages find stuff that you had lost keep healthy for tires build shelves on the wall great job you both get gold stars where dust masks
My garage is as bad as your shop, if not worse. Love the video! Staying at home, playing with trains!
Hell yeah, messy shelves. I build a new shed with concrete floor. Day 1 it was empty , 3months later it was full of crap. I had to throw junk away, but it's hard, every piece of junk is kept because maybe you'll use it one day. Be ruthless. If you throw it away and find you need it a week later (I have done this) then meh go get new stuff. But it will always be hard to throw stuff away.
COLD START ROXY , you have to go on garages sort of like cribs love you guys looking for work
I subscribed yesterday and now I wanna clean my garage......I can’t stop🤣
Still milking cows morning and night here in Aus. Slowly working/saving up to getting the tune properly done on my cammed 5.4 modular ford. At least these restrictions are helping me save money to get it running properly! Not spending 400 bucks a week on fuel helps! 👍
I spent a few hours this morning tidying my my garage. Lots of the same issues, as well as stuff from about three projects still not put away. It felt good to get the space all cleaned up. :)
On the Audi, I would have painted the spoiler and side-view mirrors black, as that would have complimented the wheels and grill.
I wondered where all of the brakeclean in the world went to. Now we know it’s in Texas. HOARDERS! HOARDERS!
Ok well we STILL need more Finley!!!! Rock on u two awesomeness folks!!!!
I call mine organized chaos. Sadly all the cleaning & still no 10mm
Super le rangement,on devrait faire cela plus souvent !! à bientôt salut Jeannot 🛠😉
Yep, getting a lot done in my garage and working on my friends interior since we’re all home now. All our events have been canceled until June. This Sucks, hope y’all are doing good. ❤️ from Kansas City MO
The shop looks good. Can't wait to get mine in good working order. I'm in Southwest Missouri still working during the stay home order driving a truck to bring live chickens to Tyson's for Walmart and staying safe.
I feel your pain sister.... i had to move 1 motor block and 2 transmissions and a whole pile of this and that just to get to the motor i built for my mustang sitting on the motor stand .. i love spring time but it sure is a whole bunch of work ..lol

I am at home with my wife, doing home improvement projects, stacking firewood, and enjoying each other's company.
One thing that i noticed is that you should be storing Paints and flammable chemical in a proper flammables cabinet. Things happen and that is how shops burn. I know this is months after the video but my two cents worth. Love the content
I work in the telecom world, phone systems in medical clinics, hospitals, offices etc. I’m currently building an 84 GMC for the wife just fired up the 4.8 LS today!! Yea!! I have a channel, ( the rusty Mark) I haven’t done a video in years but I want to start doing some. Love your videos!!
I straightened out my shop in my basement and did some cleaning in my garage but still have a long way to go.
Fantastic video guys, shop organization is such a pain but so necessary. New fan here
paw patrol
Such a fine weekend for cleaning the shop. I need to send you my Zen Shop Rules one day!
Looks like a shop to me. A bit of organization's not a bad thing, but super neat and tidy would be strange...
I am doing similar, setting up a new shed to move all out of the old one. Aaron looks great sans beard, you, Emily, gorgeous as always. Once the old shed is empty there will be a bonfire. You guys should fly the 172 to Mena for that! (Sorry, forgot her name). Ellie? Rental storage is bad, buy sheds for that. Yes, Roxy sounds badass!
The shop looks great! I really need to do that myself. I'm still working, but things have slowed way down. So I've spent all the extra time installing a twin turbo kit on my Silverado, with a couple little honey dos thrown in for good measure. :-)
new subscriber here, I cleaned up my shop. Ordered several things that needed to be fixed. Built a new storage shelves. MAN it look GREAT! I dont wanna do any work in it...I may mess it all up again... Love your Videos......thanks
Excellent job...no more toe stubs for ya'll.
it's true .. the bigger the shop the bigger mess it gets into .. i think you guys need a 20 foot container in the back yard.. but shelf it out & don't just dump stuff in it
ya'll need a larger shop. that would be a fantastic episode series
I use those wire "metro racks" to display my collection of diecast cars. I lined each shelf with plastic sign material so the wheels wouldn't fall through the wires!!
Love the videos! Just rebuilt a 1600cc vw engine to install in a 65 beetle tomorrow.
It never stops, your just prepping for the next collection.
Same here trying to sort through the tools and parts lol
Watching this reminds of a column Peter Egan wrote in Road & Track, years ago. He, too, had to clean up his garage so he could be interviewed for a program about motorcycles. He said it took him about 12 hours to get his shop in shape.
This Pandemic has been both a blessing and a curse. In southern Alabama, thousands of families spent much of the time to spring clean in a major way. Us included. In addition, I took my old wooden Bosarge Skiff and gave it an overhaul. It was long overdue. I'm sure you guys are glad you gotter done as well.
Bass fishing a lot..!! And that's what I do....(retired 15 yrs...)
aim having the same problems in my garage.its so easy to save parts and things,but difficult to find things when you need it.😂
What you can find when cleaning up. Nice video as always. Greetings from Germany. Jürgen
Always love to see your videos. I'm up here in MN trying to keep the big rigs rolling everyday to get food and necessities on the shelves. Stay safe.
yep, You gonna need a bigger boat (shelf)
need some fans blow air out, that will help reduce dust
tired? my "shop" looks worse - try cleaning with another 30 years on the "engine"
Awesome Job guys wish you the best !
Look at it this way. You can tell when someone doesnt get anything done in their shop.
Its clean!
You are lucky to have a garage/shop I have to work in the open driveway.
Nice job with the cleanup! I will echo what some others here have said: Why scrap those engines? Surely someone else could put them to use if they have any life left in them.
My shop looks like a small nucular devise explobed in there. But what's really weird is . I still know where stuff is. Dreading the day of cleaning. Gotta do it
Great video Aaron and Emily
Haha what time. I home school kids with my wife in the morning, then I go to work on CINTAS and fedex trks in the afternoons.
I assumed it was normal. Lol. Our garages end up being a catch all. 🤷🏼♀️ I know for a fact the messes in my garage drive me crazy. Lol
You two are geared up for the many future swap meets, with all the stuff going to storage.
Learning to tune, correcting my wheel speed for tire size. Maybe rewiring the center console
Good plan
I'll bet Aaron grateful he's not isolated from u ya gorgeous thing. Stay safe guys
Oh no! Roxy has an engine light on! Shop looks great...but now you won't be able to find anything! lol
Gotta have stuff☣, mines a mess at the moment, started spring cleaning but weathers kinda weird up here in Ohio 70 one day snowy the next, been watching a lotta CZcams lol, wife's still working at retail grocery so its kinda scary having an essential job especially when the pay isn't the greatest 😒,anyways can't wait until it's over
Hey if you guys come to Australia can you clean my shed please. We live in the Hunter Valley we have some world class wines...more than happy to show you around!
And the wine's good too!
Keep up the great vids I like how u both are just killing it ..off to do my honey todo list.lol
