hey guys it's Adam from tested welcome
today's one day build is a shop
infrastructure bill yes I know I build a
lot of props and cool stuff here but
probably twenty twenty-five percent of
what I do in this job is just builds
that support the shop and that means I'm
always watching and monitoring my
processes to see ways in which this
space could be made more efficient and
today's face that we are making more
efficient is a space that you have not
yet seen because we've never filmed a
segment in my cave bathroom don't worry
it's not like it's a disgusting bathroom
or anything it's actually got a ton of
crap in it that you've never seen and it
has never been properly laid out and I
think you could be laid out much more
efficiently so that is gonna be today's
one-day build all right here we go into
my bathroom there's a lot of like
important artifacts to me in here you'll
see them as the camera pans across but
one of my all-time favorites is my 8 by
10 when I was 15 years old
look it's sensitive poetry man
[Music]
I know what you're wondering you're
wondering why is there such a really
nice marble bathroom in your cave well
it's because my landlord actually is a
master marble cutter yeah so he put in a
really swanky marble shower again I
don't need it but his gorgeous I don't
want to have to deal with shelving
around this and storing stuff around the
shelves and the faucet and a showerhead
so I'm gonna box this in I'm gonna take
some plywood and I'm going to wall it
off so it's no man's land and I can't
accidentally activate the shower I'm
actually gonna box in with plywood this
whole upper portion of the shower so I
can use the most amount of it but here
is the thing I can make some careful
measurements but honestly I'm gonna have
to build this box in place in sits you
here in the shower so I'm gonna go get
some towels
[Music]
starting to look like something huh some
lovely shelves or some stuff here and
there I'm very pleased with those they
look great I like a little lip I have a
little bendy board and I know this isn't
the neatest job like I had to redo this
one but I'm actually gonna paint this
all with white latex paint boom
vacuum fits right there now where do I
go from here well clearly I'm going to
this there and do a backing and do a
second piece here so that I can start to
build some shelves here yeah pretty much
that's the next step just say how much I
love the idea of a cordless circular saw
that is badass
[Music]
that's what I'm talking about
yep
[Music]
I'm pretty happy with how this is going
it's not magnificent it's not gorgeous
but it's completely functional I like
that
[Music]
here is the problem I'm dealing with the
sides of my shower are not perfectly
straight this is not bad craftsmanship
this is all houses in San Francisco all
of the mood and nothing is quite square
and perpendicular or parallel and so I
have all of my sheets that are 24 by 48
and 18 by 48
but there's one sheet where I have to
accommodate for the off camber or
off-kilter sides of my shower and that's
what I'm cutting right now let's see how
I did
dude I've made me a useful part of my
shop I'm very psyched about this things
can't get too lost in here I can hear
again I have to add some front stringers
to each of these shelves because as you
can see they're a little soft but once I
do that and they will be rock-solid and
I'll store toilet paper paper products
up here party supplies first aid kit all
that stuff will be accessible to me when
I need it
all right I'm really pleased with how
this looks so far the next step is to
finish it off with a little house paint
I'm using a semi-gloss interior latex
paint it should dry pretty quickly
because I've got a mad heater in this
bathroom but once I turn it on should
make this paint set like a splint
[Music]
so there it is I have built wooden
shelves in my bathroom and it really
seriously feels like I have doubled the
size of my bathroom this is also a
noteworthy one-day build in that it
happened in less than one day that
pretty much almost never happens
ah this bathroom is so much better now
and if you'll excuse me I have to use it
