Welcome to Denver! Can’t wait to see the final set up.
Like a bare canvas to an artist, and like Bob Ross used to say "it’s your little world" lol
Good luck. this will be fun to watch!
Andy, just wondering what prompted the move and from where? Can’t wait to see the shop come together, green with envy for a space like that and enough head room where I wouldn’t have to duck going thru my doorways. AHHH maybe someday, lol
Love to see the new shop started not many chances people get to start over from scratch. Looking grad to the rest of the setup
nice work keep them comming!
Dude…NOW THATS A SHOP! Hey Drew, If U ever start feelin’ overwhelmed, try 2 remember this: How do u eat an elephant?…..ONE BITE AT A TIME! Have A Super Blessed Week!…..Gus
As someone who is woodworking out of a one car garage, I’m incredibly jealous of your soon to be basement shop. Good luck
Hope you don’t have bentonite clay issues which are very common to Denver or that is an older house where the floor has been sitting 10+ years.

I hope you are seriously looking into LED lighting for your new shop and not just fluorescent lighting. There are so many great benefits with LEDs !!!!
PS: The prices for LEDs has come way down into the affordable range now, i.e.: Home Depot has a 2 pack of 60 watt Phillips LED bulbs for $4.97 (special buy) and the quality of LED bulbs has increased greatly too !!!!!
Good to see a video from you again, quite the monumental task you have there. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it. 🙂
WHere is your respirator?
Awesome Age of Empires music.
Wow, I’d kill for that much shop space. It’s almost as big as my whole house.
You must have a very understanding wife. When we moved into our present house it also had an unfinished basement and I planned to take exactly half of it for my shop. She had other ideas and I wound up with one quarter of it. Still larger than I had previously had in my other 4 shops. Good video and good luck to you. If you want to drool even more over a new shop look at the Woodpecker’s Taj Mahal shop in Canada.
Woah! That’s a huge man cave shop 🙂

So incredibly jealous. Good for you .
So if you build anything big you have to walk it up the steps or is it a walk out basement
That looks like it’s going to be a great space for the new shop.
Great Shop update, Great meeting you at W.I.A. Good luck in the future with the new shop, I will be following your shop set up videos and thanks for your valuable advice! Jim (aka) Texas Buckeye Workshop
Nothing better than getting to set a shop up from scratch. Congrats!
Great space. Grats on move.
Good luck with the new space. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!
Andrew, how are things going now? Is your shop finally set up and good to go?
Peace!
Please upgrade your dust collector for that space. The one you have is terrible for air quality in a shop. When you get to my age, you’ll be sorry for not having a good dust collector and so will your family and your bank account. You pay for poor health choices beginning in your later 40’s. Its accumulative, believe me! Once you reach the "tipping" point, you can’t go back and your body will not be able to repair itself.
Great start and welcome to Denver!
Keep us posted on how the expansion joints fair over time. I am curious to see if the epoxy filler gets pushed up/out, and if the slabs push against the basement walls.
Yeah you’ve got a lot of work to get set up but WOW, 1200 square feet!! I am so jealous.
The Elasti Poxy looks like pretty cool stuff. Does that or the etching compound off gas very much?
Congrats on the great space Andrew! Looking forward to the progress
That’s going to be a lot of fun work. Be interesting to see how you select lighting for the shop. I think T8 is cheapest. Of course if your blade works out you can go for LED.
I am so envious! it’s so unusual to have the chance to arrange a new shop like this.
It’s a great space.

Nice job! Any updates/announcements on your mitre blade?
Dude…. I am dying to see a new video after this new shop video….. we miss you! Or atleast I miss your content. lol Lets see some more shop progress and hows the saw blade product coming along?
I have found that if you use a devise to vibrate the floor while filling with sand it goes in really easy and you can fill even hairline crack really easily. I just used a hammer drill with a large flathead bit made from round stock.
Congratulations on the new house. Love the basement. Cannot imagine a house without one. Enjoy the space.
Looks like you have quite a bit to do to get the shop how you want it. Does everything have to come down those stairs, or is there another entrance?
Andrew, I was wondering how the manufacturing of your box joint blade is progressing? I’m interested in purchasing one when they come available. Your new shop looks to become a real show place congrads and hope you produce many more videos as I really enjoy them. Thanks again Larry
Great space mate, Im just getting into the 2 car garage lol.
Looks awesome! I sure hope you continue coming the entire process! Looking forward to how you will set everything up 🙂
Could have saved a lot of time using a hose and a wet vac to rinse after the etch. Also. POUR the epoxy on the floor and move it around with the roller.
Welcome to Denver.
I think your videos r good n I subscribed to your channel. It would be
great to have you aboard with the other great woodworkers I have
subscribed to my channel. Thank u 🙂
Looking forward to see your new shop and ideas! Greetings from Brazil! (By the way, you sound exactly like Jimmy Kimmel!)
Welcome to Denver. Does your basement have a sump pump? I know a lot of people that have had water issues in their basements the past few years, me included, and it’s not cheap to put it in after all the drywall and other things are done. Just something to consider.
Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together.
I dont know if you lived around mountains before? Now that you defiantly do, I have some secrete advice for you because I like you. "No mountain too big for a stepper." Welcome, Im sure you will find Gold in this magical place. No more secretes for awhile. I will probably get in trouble for letting this one out.
Did anyone get Hyezmar’s Woodworking Bible yet? I think he’s still looking for proof readers. At least that’s what read in a blog after googling him.
Congrats on the new shop! Can’t wait to see the finished space. How do you plan to handle the noise? Will that be an issue for your family upstairs?
Greatfull.
Soooo jealous… 🙂 Looks like it’s gonna be awesome down there. And you get sunlight, too!
