Tested: Just because Adam is under lockdown, doesn't mean he's stopped building! In fact, quite the contrary: Adam is busier than ever working on new builds and shop improvement projects. This is the first in a series of One Day Builds that Adam has filmed himself from the cave, upgrading the infrastructure around his lathe by organizing his many chucks and live centers.

Ok, here is my weekly Adam Savage comment in the Green Page. He posts such a wide variety of videos that I truly am able to comment on something different each week. This video was especially interesting because he shows some of how he organizes his personal shops. I have seen some pictures during this quarantine of people working on their at home shops, so I am sure that people are watching videos like this to gain some better understanding of ways to make your workspace more efficient and conducive to your projects. Seeing how he builds this infrastructure around his lathe is really beneficial information because, while not everyone has one of these machines, they could build similarly structured devices to help organize around other machines that they might have in their shops. I really look forward to all of Adam’s videos that are posted here each week. I cannot wait to see what he shares for next week.
And here's to another Adam Savage's Tested comment. Like I have said in the past, I have always been a huge fan of Adam Savage. This video is just another example of how he thinks outside the box and creates solutions to problems in ways I probably just wouldn't have thought of. While I wouldn't call Adam Savage's shop small, I would not call it big in any sense of the word. On top of that, he has crammed so much material, so many tools, and still given himself plenty of space to work in his "medium" sized shop. This project is a great example of how he has managed to do this. He observed a problem, that he didn't have a good place to store many pieces for his lathe, and he set boundaries for himself. He did not want to make the footprint of his lathe setup larger. With this, he found a small corner, and designed a shelf to both fit all the parts and fit the corner.
