I'd watch 10 of your favorite shelving designs and hardware
I would watch that over this video
I just visited the Edison's Menlo Park lab recreation at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. I highly recommend it to everyone. In his 80's Edison recreated his Menlo park lab at the museum to include all the shelved bottles of chemicals, elements, powders, etc into it. Probably 500+ jars and bottles!! It's very impressive, and it looks like Edison had the no stack, one-handed rule too. The lab was lined with shelves across every perimeter wall up to ceiling. It made me think of Casey's studio in NYC, Tom Sachs and of course Van Neistat's spaces.
I'd watch it AND give it a thumbs up
As others have said, a longer more in-depth video (or a series of videos) on your organizational thought process is much needed.
No, it’s not. Organisation of stuff must follow a few simple principles, that’s the whole point. After that, the only person who can really organise your things is you.
yaaaas bishhh
He's too busy organising to make another vid
Immediately clicked on this video wishing it was an hour long...
Same
Agreed.
Yess!!
Same
But it was too organised
My sixth one is: transparent containers! The PET, light, stackable, and free ones from Deli products are ideal to organize drawers.
I use it as tuber-ware (freezer food storage containers
@@nickdannunzio7683 you mean Tupperware right?
When at work and can’t find your chisel or whatever: don’t go look for it, but start cleaning up your mess. Takes less time, you’re guaranteed to find back your tool and a fresh start as a bonus.
Mama always said!
I can't stress just how effective this is. Don't know how I struck upon that habit, but it's a genuine time and sanity saver.
"Kit your Shit" is by far the best advice.
I like to use zip lock bags in my every day bag. Have my insuline and sweets and stuff in one, my Victorinox and such in one and my remote (to the iPhone) and microphone and some cables in one.
I think I broke my jaw.
It dropped so hard after seeing the engine compartment jumper cable box… So simple. So obvious. So practical.
Same. It’s genius haha it literally made me smile
It's honestly dumb as hell that it's not a built in feature on every car
NOCO Boost Plus GB40 ?
Yeah but don’t cut your jumper cables tho
I think you have to be careful about obstructing the free flow of air to your engine intake.
* Not a mechanic 😬
Love that you get right to it. No intro, no blabbing, no begging for likes and subscribes. So, I liked 👍
good lord what an absolute banger of a video. it's a true revelation to see someone take organisation to a next level while yet keeping things small, understandable and personal. absolutely agree on the talismans - espescially rubber bands are under-appreciated by society as far as i'm concerned. I always have a rubber band wrapped around my lighter, so by default i carry both a lighter and a thick rubber band.
I’d honestly pay for a skillshare type course on how you and Casey organize and customize
SAME.
Can you make about 47 more episodes of this exact subject please? Thank you.
I've just watched 10 bullets (again) and this video confirms how close to your heart those rules apply. Thanks for sharing!
10 Bullets, Plywood and Colo(u*)r: the holy trinity.
*I’m British, so the lack of a u in colour disturbs me 😅
An ode to all of us who spend more time organizing than working 😅
I have a torn rotator cuff (the real one). I restore architectural homes professionally and I have recently come to learn how difficult it is to work with one hand.
This video could not have come at a more perfect time. I'm about to completely redo my gear room and this will be the perfect method for it! Also, that jumper cable box in the hood is pure genius!
Same!
Or get a reliable battery?
I don't know how important it is, but affecting the free flow of air can be a problem. I know cars have shields that redirect the air intake to the engine, and I imagine obstructing the intake could harm engine performance.
@@mrc4910
Reliability of the battery is not always or even usually the issue. Any battery can be defective even when new. And anyone can accidentally leave the interior overhead light on overnight, draining the battery. And any vehicle can have an alternator issue that drains the battery. Among many other reasons for having a dead battery. Also, having jumper cables could save someone else in trouble, too.
@@grantcivyt
Yeah, I was wondering about that. I would be quizzing some experts of my car model's engine before I did something like that. I would also worry about starting a fire if it was close to something hot. Nevertheless, if a person knows what they are doing, I think it is genius, and I've long wondered why car manufacturers haven't done the same!!! They should also have convenient spots for tools to break the glass in case of falling into a river, a place for simple tools, a place for an emergency kit, etc.
These kinds of videos are my favorite of yours. I think you said it best in another video that the utility IS the art and that's what I love about your style. Keep'em coming!
I love the one handed rule and practice it with many things, not just items on a shelf. I also have a "no-handed" rule when travelling. Whenever possible, I use a backpack that allows me to travel freeing up both hands for getting out passport, hold phone, hold drink, operate iPod, etc. I also don't own an umbrella...in the rare occurrence that it rains, I just accept wet clothes as the penalty for not needing to hold one up, carry one, store one, and dry one out. I think of it as an outdoor shower. I hate carrying things.
One handed rule makes for a professional kitchen where it is a pleasure to cook in.
@@YaH_Gives_Wisdom I can see that. Many professions can make use of the rule.
MORE OF THIS PLEASE VAN :) - about to move to a new home, and all I was thinking PRIOR to this video was, "how would a Neistat do it" - this was gold.
Your ability to make anything into a story and video is so inspiring for me ...just inspires me to keep making more vids... Thanks Van🔥💯
I don't know what it is but something in these videos has such a different vibe to it than all other things on youtube. Van talking about any subject is so on brand and authentic that it makes me think this platform is not just full of people making life seem easy or trying to sell me something. This just feels like a genuine and honest approach to all these subjects with so much work put into them that I feel blessed every time a new video is uploaded. Thank you Van for these awesome videos and please never change your style for anything. :)
This is honestly my favorite video. It speaks to all of my obsessions and desires for organization. Wish Van made more of this.
As someone who makes an effort to remain organized…I am thoroughly impressed by all your organization philosophies. Nice!
No stacks/one-handed, YES! Now if only I can get hubs on board. My life is so happy everywhere I have implemented this. Can’t wait to hear more, just had to chime in with enthusiasm at number one.
This fulfilled man was always amazed with how the spirited man and his artistic brother have always been organized. Van’s approach to organization is very streamlined which is satisfying. Appreciate the look into your way of thinking in organizing items Van!
Love this video. Not many people making videos in this style in this day and age. And your style is unique, practical & aesthetic without trying to be all insta-polished. Your videos are timeless Van, they remind of 'Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen'. Thankyou for creating in this life !
I love when I find videos that just “make sense” to my brain. Thankfully, a lot of your videos do. Especially this one. Thank you.
Awesome video.
I find "rolling shelved racks" (I got at Costoco) are great as can compact them all together in a corner of garage when not using, keep them labelled and just roll out the rack you need, when needed.
I also use clear plastic multipocket pocket hanging organisers on the ends of the shelf/racks.
This needs a part 2, and is also one of my favorites
That jumper cable hack is one of the best I've seen in a while.
Me too! I immediately wondered if there is a space in my engine compartment I could house a closed container like this. Keeping the cables next to the intended spot you will need them is practical and genius.
My organizational talismans include but are not limited to.
Zip ties
Hooks
Bungee cords
Coffee cans
Peanut butter jars
This is truly brilliant and useful. This video is as beautiful and entertaining as it is practical. Thank you.
Omg, the jumper cable modification/storage in the truck is genius!!! Always at the ready, I love it!
If the algorithm gives me this, I love the algorithm.
The organization is all about a Lean environment, in which waste has no room for all work to flow sustainably. I love this guy.
Your voice is so calming. I'm going to use your videos for chill time when I'm feeling overwhelmed!
Stumbled on this while scrolling, glad I did. Like your style, direct, to the point, simple ideas, all practical and not a long video. I must say the storage of jumper cables under the hood, brilliant!
I love your advice, I love even more the visual and audio vibes.
Totally agree. Have to learn all this on my own
This video is it. If you really look there is so much to learn and receive. Thank you.
This is the most effective video on organization i have seen on youtube! short, concise and most importantly brilliant. Thank you!
Minimalism is the best organization tool I’ve ever adopted. 👍🏼
I prefer fire 🔥 but it's kinda the same as minimalism
@@reed6514 Ha! Torch it all.
Maximalism is the best set of tools I’ve ever adopted 👍
@@ChickenNutz69 😄🤣
@@ChickenNutz69 How so?
Van this is just awesome. I was always awed by how you and Casey arrange everything so neatly! If you make this a series I’d watch.
Btw after your kit video on bike tools I fished out a dewalt too bag and put tools for my bicycle repair in that and it’s so useful.
Note that your messages are impacting peoples lives in a positive way. Keep it up
Hmmm, Says 80 grit while turning over a sheet of 100? Couldn’t be a mistake. To much thought and effort was put into this masterpiece.
Have read only only a minute's worth of comments and feel obliged to offer kudos on the sound art cavorting as music that is under your narration and the in situ sounds. Inspiration!
Love this video! And your voice and delivery
Very calming, i enjoy
I will apply what i can from this
I haven't even finished the video yet because I'm too excited and happy for finding it at this time exactly what I needed it. Seek and you shall find. But wow thank you I'm so grateful for this today and now I have everything that I need right now
What on the hell did I click on!!?? This is FREAKING AWESOME!!
I seriously clicked on this channel to see about these organizational hacks. But the humor in this is beyond anything I could see on stage! Definitely subscribing.
Totally agree.
This is insanely well done. my goodness
Finally i found someone like me. I thought I am the only. Organizing so precisely is mentally pretty hard sometimes. But really cool to see these simiarities. Keep doing!
There are hundreds of channels dedicated to organising.
This is exactly what I needed! Organizing my parents house with 50 plus years of items.
Had to pause the video to say that jumper cable storage compartment is genius. Mind blown. You do customization like nobody else.
The jumper cables box in the LC is awesome
Very well done. One-handed...so easy to remember this rule for organization!
Beautiful my man! Great timing. I’m organising the shop today, but I’m totally overwhelmed and don’t know what to start.
This video changed my life. Thanks Van.
I've been doing these things all my life and getting teased for it. This piece is now my social proof.
Creators need a creative space, and, for the uncreative support tasks to take less time thru simplicity and clarity. Did l miss something about this season's shades and tints are...
Agree. Creative people need an organised space to create.
ha! I've been using #64 rubber bands since my high school days of working at Office Max. They're the best!
Absolutely brilliant .
super cool, love the jumper cable storage solution

This might be the most impactful video you've made. Thank you for the tips!
this and the gift-giving ones. I love where he boils down big lists into simple categories and principles.
Thank you for making these videos. I've never been a DIYer but these inspire me to get into it and have some fun! I built a rack for wood today. Out of wood.
Love this. Need this! Always wanted to learn more about your process.
Great content! I'm loving your videos.
Solid rules! I've been trying out pencil cases like you have there and its been going well.
I got this video as a suggestion, and all the sudden, I see a fellow old Land Cruiser fanatic three-quarters in.. that made an already great video even more awesome!!!
I had started doing this intuitively!!!!
After 40 years of construction (from tools to management) I knew what I was "in for" when I would look into a subcontractors truck...
Thank you for this video!
That jumper cable box is now in my top 5 things I've ever seen on CZcams.
Thanks Van
Aways great to come across another creative organizer
I love your video man, you're a zen master, that's great advice style
Van - this was once again fantastic! Not only entertaining, but both inspirational and informative - now I gotta get to organizing...
Absolutely brilliant 😊👍🏼
The jumper cables in the Engine bay is such a good idea! great video Always loved how some shelves transform a space or at least how useful it is .
This is perfect for ADHD folks who strive for organization, but lack of project focus makes chaos of an organized shop. It’s also perfect for movie nerds. The sound effects were giving me heavy Kubrick vibes, even though you ended with a Scorcese clip.
I feel so much better about my quirks after seeing this. Thank you
Thanks to your patrons and you for providing such awesome video
Your organisation philosophy is amazing lots of love from India
I feel like I've been invoked into some alternate dimension while watching this video, and it is a nice place to be.
Proud member of the binder clip club and im always encouraging recruits
Great timing!
I went to hit the like button, but realized I had already hit it after one of the other dozen times that I watched this video. The fact that the algorithm keeps dropping this into my feed is a good indicator that I must be watching the proper amount of useful content on a regular basis. 😂
This video was strangely calming. If you don’t have shelf brackets but have 1x2’s and a kreg jig you can make your own super sturdy shelves.
thank you for making this.
👏 I enjoyed every second!
Fantastic, love the bit about junk drawers!
This video is gold. Thanks Van
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in a while.
Amazingly awesome video, artistically wonderful. If I may propose my personal #6: Sort shelves similar to the way they are sorted on the shelf at your favorite store. This not only optimizes my organization but also my time spent in stores.
amazing storytelling, and even better content. i love this channel :)
need more like this man. i'm about to hit reset and this was just needed.
I (amongst other things!), loved your 'customise' dictum. Yes : really speaks to me! Also, great, measured voice. Subscribed right after video.
I'm observing and trying for a long while and I have adopted many of the things said here
Okay, this was my favorite video. Hands down.
ive been fiollowing these principles before this video came out, glad to see some like minded individuals out there
Storing the jumper cables in the engine compartment has blown my mind. Subscribed.
Thank you for this so very much
So good!
Dude, are you me? Somehow CZcams recommended this video today and I realized I already do all the things you recommended. Great work with the edition btw! And great content! Subscribed!
I love this one so much. 💕
This video came at a good time. Im trying to get more organized
Same
This video was truly amazing! Love your style!
