WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.640 Brian is an all-around cool guy. He runs a non-profit summer camp, 00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:07.440 raises three kids with his wife, and just look at him, wholesome. 00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:12.320 But spending all that time on other people means he hasn't had any time to work on himself. 00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.400 And because of that, his setup is bad. 00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:18.680 Except what? This looks great. Are you lying to me? 00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:26.000 No, no, the other setup's over there. Oh, oh my God, what happened here? 00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:29.280 It's not that bad. It's pretty bad, man. 00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:34.440 Don't worry, Brian. I'm sure that the setup doctor has a plan. 00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:39.800 I'm sure he does. Sorry, guys, I'd be there if I could. 00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:48.520 No worries. Reese and I were super competent and I'm sure that nothing will go wrong. 00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:51.840 I'm like stressed out. I didn't know that I would have such a visceral emotional reaction. 00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.080 Some stuff might go wrong, but the gain will be worth the pain. 00:00:56.080 --> 00:01:02.240 We got big plans. Bad cable management. It's disease and someone's gotta cure it. 00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:05.800 That's why Linus became the setup doctor. 00:01:05.800 --> 00:01:08.920 Brought to you by Yougreen. Hi, my name is Brian. 00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:12.200 I am one of the directors at a summer camp 00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:18.240 and I've been doing this for 12 years or so. We have three kids who are under the age of eight 00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:22.440 and we have busy lives. So that's my space that I go to work on things 00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:26.160 and not a lot else. I go in there and I tinker and I leave 00:01:26.160 --> 00:01:29.120 and I don't spend a lot of time making it look nice. 00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.360 I do want to know like what is this? This is my first computer. How old is this thing? 00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:37.480 This computer is like... Age yourself. Yeah, age yourself. 00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:41.560 This computer is probably like 20 something years old. I mean, it looks it. 00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:45.760 No, no, no, not at all. It looks young and spry, capable. 00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:50.160 But enough about your old computer. What is this new computer? 00:01:50.160 --> 00:01:54.320 This is 10 years newer than that one is. Okay, new to you, I guess. 00:01:54.320 --> 00:01:59.160 This is like our home server, a.k.a. This is your server of backup hard drive. 00:01:59.160 --> 00:02:02.880 I don't know if you'd follow the channel too much, but you know that like we have servers, 00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:06.680 Linus has servers and they break all the time and they're closed. 00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.680 But this way if it breaks, I can fix it. The camp I work at is non-profit 00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:15.240 so we can never ever afford tech. So we just inherit people's old computers 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:19.320 and then put them in our office and use them. But less than 10 years old? 00:02:19.320 --> 00:02:22.960 Less than 15? Some of them are less than 10 years old. That's pretty good. 00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:28.680 It seems like you got a lot of stuff. You got like a power supply, was that an oscilloscope? 00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:32.640 That's a multimeter, yeah, the oscilloscope's over here, but I don't know how to use it. They're like handheld now. 00:02:32.640 --> 00:02:35.720 How old is this stuff? Very old, my dad gave me this. 00:02:35.720 --> 00:02:40.200 He's an electrician. Oh, okay. He built and designed this from scratch for me. 00:02:40.200 --> 00:02:43.720 Wait, what? Yeah. He built, he made that? See, look, it's Brian. 00:02:43.720 --> 00:02:44.840 That's so cool. 00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:52.000 Just looking at this place, one thing I think that you lack is small organization. 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:58.960 We've got lots of big shelves. Yeah, absolutely. But you also just have like a CPU, just out and about. 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:03.160 When it's organized, I come in and I go, I don't know what to do now. Okay, well, we're gonna fix that. 00:03:03.160 --> 00:03:06.580 We're gonna teach you how to be organized. Many have tried and many have failed. 00:03:06.580 --> 00:03:10.960 This series is all about failing. And learning from that failure. 00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:17.040 I'm worried because there's so many, 00:03:18.320 --> 00:03:21.400 I'm like stressed out. I didn't know that I would have such a visceral emotional reaction. 00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:27.000 One keyboard, ah, ah, ah. Two keyboards, ah, ah, ah. 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:30.880 I put the third one in there. Three keyboards, ah, ah, ah. 00:03:30.880 --> 00:03:36.640 That's RAM, it's DDR. It's not DDR2, it's just DDR. 00:03:36.640 --> 00:03:40.440 Would you like a Pentium? Oh my God, how old is that? 00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.560 Logically, this doesn't really make sense to me, but now that we've removed the stuff from it, 00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.520 it looks smaller. It does actually look way smaller. 00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.680 That was my problem, the desk was just too small. 00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:57.320 Okay, I'm gonna be real with you, Brian. That is not the only problem. 00:03:57.320 --> 00:04:00.720 Here's what I see. You have a lot of stuff, 00:04:00.720 --> 00:04:04.760 but no suitable place to put it all. Which is why it's all over your desk. 00:04:04.760 --> 00:04:09.720 So to remedy this, we're gonna build storage into as many parts of the setup as possible. 00:04:09.720 --> 00:04:12.800 New desk, with drawers, walls. 00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.920 Those are gonna get pegboards. We're gonna move your floating shelf over 00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:19.320 to make room for, get this, bigger shelf. 00:04:19.320 --> 00:04:23.080 And this table on the left is gonna turn into a rollable black space, 00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:26.120 with, get this, storage. 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.240 Oh, and we also threw in a ton of extra goodies for you. 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:33.360 All right, boys, let's get to it. Or rather, you guys are gonna get to it. 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:38.680 Oh. That's very heavy, by the way. 00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.720 Yeah, nothing's too heavy for me. 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:43.040 Ah, okay. 00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.240 We're good, I only scraped the top layer of skin. 00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:54.880 Oh, I have these drawers here. And then, oh yeah, we got all the space we need. 00:04:54.880 --> 00:04:58.200 Now that we know that everything fits, we're gonna start doing some drilling. 00:04:58.200 --> 00:05:02.000 Great. Is this shelf only held up with like two screws or something? Three. 00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:05.160 Okay. All right. Hi. 00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:12.760 I put a level on top to level it, and never took it off. 00:05:12.760 --> 00:05:15.800 All right, we're done with the cable management. Thank you so much, Brian. 00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:19.960 Your cable management upgrade is done. It's amazing. So much better in here. 00:05:19.960 --> 00:05:23.160 You good? You can tell from the cinder blocks how level the floor is. 00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:27.720 Yeah, this is, just don't look at the corner. Don't look at the lines. 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:31.200 Brian, can you explain this networking situation to me? 00:05:31.200 --> 00:05:35.800 This is our router. The brown line comes from a building over there, 00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:40.360 which the internet comes from outside of that. And then the blue line goes into our house, 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:44.760 and then there's a Wi-Fi router and a switch in our house. And that goes to the places. 00:05:44.760 --> 00:05:49.880 The plan is we're gonna leave this kind of, as it is, we might just wanna purty it up a little bit. 00:05:49.880 --> 00:05:53.280 And we can leave this up there. Yeah. You don't have good Wi-Fi in here though, 00:05:53.280 --> 00:05:57.160 because your actual wireless router is on the other side of this concrete brick. 00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:01.040 Okay. So I think we can deal with that, because I think we can get you a small router 00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:05.200 for like, they'll just put on the same network. That big old power bar, is that gonna go under? 00:06:05.200 --> 00:06:10.400 That depends on what you wanna do, because I also understand that like, you wanna have easy access to just unplug and plug stuff. 00:06:10.400 --> 00:06:14.200 And if that plug is there, then I think we could put the power under and then. 00:06:14.200 --> 00:06:17.520 And then that can be like your modular, your permanent plugs are under here. 00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:20.880 And then when you need an extra thing, you can just put it in the top. Yeah, let's do that. 00:06:20.880 --> 00:06:24.960 Sounds great. Scatis. That's the Ikea peg boards. The reason I went with these is because 00:06:24.960 --> 00:06:30.120 on like, Thingiverse or printables, there's just tons and tons of custom 3D printed stuff 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.840 that works exactly with this. So if you have to hang like anything 00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:38.520 that you ever could imagine, somebody's probably made a plan and you've already got that 3D printer on your desk. 00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:41.920 You'll be able to easily print some stuff. Didn't you actually do any print any stuff for it? 00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.440 I did. Oh. It's probably gonna have been out there. 00:06:45.080 --> 00:06:50.960 It's almost like we planned this. I'm not gonna say the thing I was about to say. I'm just gonna say, let's get pigging. 00:06:50.960 --> 00:06:54.560 I definitely drilled the holes for where the... For where those things are not to... 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:59.720 So I've watched all the videos where Elijah puts extra holes in. But I now let the homeowners drill holes in their wall. 00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:03.280 Is this part of this? No, this is a computer test bench 00:07:03.280 --> 00:07:08.080 that we just grabbed for you. So instead of having to swap parts in and out of a chassis, 00:07:08.080 --> 00:07:12.720 you can just have functioning parts on here. Take whatever you want out of the computer, 00:07:12.760 --> 00:07:17.360 test on here or plug anything in, and it'll save you a lot of time. And it'll look a little bit cleaner. 00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:24.080 While Reese is gonna keep working in the workshop, I'm gonna come in here and help cable manage this setup. 00:07:24.080 --> 00:07:27.400 Now it looks pretty clean on the top, so good job. 00:07:27.400 --> 00:07:31.080 Thank you. Underneath though. You don't look under the desk. 00:07:31.080 --> 00:07:36.040 We could use a little bit of work, you know? So we're gonna just tidy some things up for ya 00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:41.240 and make sure that works. Using our handy-dandy magnetic cable management arches. 00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.960 Have you seen this stuff? I haven't seen it. You're a big fan. You're a big fan. 00:07:44.960 --> 00:07:48.720 You watched the first set of Dr. Video too. I did. Feel free to look through it. This is our big, huge supply chest. 00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:53.960 We brought more than we'd ever need.

Yeah, those are my headphones, yes. 00:08:14.880 --> 00:08:19.720 How do they... They work fine. They don't even... Well, they don't work when they don't play music through them. 00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:23.400 Oh, I see. I mean, like they don't even sit on your ears. 00:08:23.400 --> 00:08:26.760 They like... They sit on my ears. Do they? Probably. 00:08:28.200 --> 00:08:31.800 Basically, we just made a big, massive tool kit 00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:36.640 full of every possible length of like every type of cable. 00:08:36.640 --> 00:08:40.880 Cause a lot of what solves your cable management problems 00:08:40.920 --> 00:08:44.880 is just having the right length of cable. It's not necessary. A lot of times you just want to do what you can 00:08:44.880 --> 00:08:50.160 with what you got, but having the right length makes your life a lot easier. 00:08:50.160 --> 00:08:53.320 We just took the paper off of the magnetic plate that we're going to put on here. 00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:57.920 That's about where we want it to be. Now it's held in there. Now we're going to just quickly take our screws 00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:02.080 and put them into the back of the desk. Don't worry, Brian said that this is okay. 00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:06.240 Just like that. We'll take all of our cables, put them in and boom. 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.760 Oh, it's so nice. And then because they're not like Velcroed or tied down or anything, 00:09:09.800 --> 00:09:13.840 if he wants to adjust his monitor or move it, these will just pull through nicely. 00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:17.600 Should probably vacuum under there, but outside of that it'll be really easy 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:22.000 cause there's no cables in the way. What's funny is I did vacuum up to the cables. 00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:25.480 Yeah. Oh wow. Hey, look at that. 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:29.440 That's up safe and secure. It's absolutely 100% permanent deployment. 00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:33.000 Never going to fall. This is amazing. This looks so much better already. It actually really does. 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:37.760 I'm so excited for you. And just like that, we chose a white table top. 00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:41.520 It only comes in that size in white, but that doesn't matter 00:09:41.520 --> 00:09:44.920 because we have an LTT mod mat 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.320 that's gonna be nice and cover most of the top. 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:55.120 Got everything you'd ever want to know about computers. I will never wonder what size a fan is ever again. 00:09:55.120 --> 00:10:00.320 That's great. I will say that we don't go so far back as to have this Vex for DDR, 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:04.400 but we do have three onwards. Yeah, that's good. Get it where you want it. 00:10:04.400 --> 00:10:07.400 I don't know if this is where I want it. So it's okay where it is? 00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:11.120 Yeah, I think it's gonna come up, Reese. We'll move it later if we want. Thank God. 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.600 So I guess it's kind of time to start putting stuff back. Getting your setup organized. 00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:19.360 So you can take your screwdrivers. That's an LTT screwdriver, specific one. 00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:22.600 It's designed exactly for us. And then we've got a bunch of extra hooks. 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.600 So if you ever need one more thing to hang, 00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:30.880 you can just go print them off for like five, 10 cents each. 00:10:30.880 --> 00:10:34.960 Like they're changed there. Perfect. We're gonna try and use the power bar keys 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:39.520 that we normally use for power bars, but these keys are a bit too thick. 00:10:39.520 --> 00:10:44.920 So we decided to use the power brick holders, strapped them to the bottom and they're good to go. 00:10:44.920 --> 00:10:47.960 It's actually a bigger power bar. So the bigger magnets will actually kind of 00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:51.680 work in our favor. I got you a new router, like a little, if you wanted a Wi-Fi out here, 00:10:51.680 --> 00:10:54.800 that's just plugged into your router. Sweet. So I figured we could just toss it up here, 00:10:54.800 --> 00:10:57.960 tidy this area up a little bit, make it a little bit less Ugo, 00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.840 or hide it behind the Ugreen NAS or something. Yeah, I just don't see how this is a good place 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.880 to put this in this exact scenario. 00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:09.320 Do you just put it against the wall? Like with the double-sided magnet part? 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:12.920 You know what I'm saying? That might be it. I do want to give it some slack. 00:11:12.920 --> 00:11:17.920 So that if you need to like pull the NAS a little bit, otherwise it has a, I mean, it has a barrel jack, is it? 00:11:17.920 --> 00:11:22.000 Yeah, yeah, that's no problem. Then we'll do that. We'll magnet it to the wall. 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:26.360 I also got you speakers. Seriously? Yeah. Oh, that's awesome. 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.760 So that you can listen to tunes. Yeah, these are amazing. And a Fire R1280 DBs. 00:11:30.760 --> 00:11:34.720 They are great, simple budget speakers, bookshelf. 00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:38.320 They're powered. The phones have Bluetooth, so you can connect it to your phone or whatever. 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:43.360 If you have it with your laptop, however you want to do that, as well as it has speaker wire and just RCA. 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:45.440 They're great, great budget speakers. 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:50.280 There. Wow. 00:11:50.280 --> 00:11:53.880 That's fun. Is that all the slack we got? How much more do you need? 00:11:53.880 --> 00:11:57.240 Like literally like an inch. Oh, I don't know if I can give you that. 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:01.720 Oh, oh, oh, they were in. That wasn't at the cost of a hideous wire, 00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:03.800 just on the wall up there, was it? 00:12:04.800 --> 00:12:08.240 No. Are you saying that because it's true 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:10.600 or because that's what you think I want to hear? No. 00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:12.960 Do the dance. 00:12:18.680 --> 00:12:22.160 Sounds great. It sounds amazing. Oh, this is going to be so perfect on your desk 00:12:22.160 --> 00:12:26.880 when we have a little, like, to talk to a cute little guy. 00:12:26.880 --> 00:12:30.280 We can have a little charger in your desk and place your phone. But if you're on the go, 00:12:30.280 --> 00:12:34.320 there's also a magnetic battery pack. Does the same thing, but also can be a kickstand. 00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:43.640 All right, it was a long day, but we're finally done. And holy cow, does it look so much better. 00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:48.760 All right, I can't wait to see how this turned out. 00:12:55.960 --> 00:13:00.240 Wow. Dude, you guys do your best work 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:13.360 when I'm not around to supervise. Look at this, there's barely any cables under there, 00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:17.280 but everything's nicely managed. If you need to, like, hook up your computer, just pull those out. 00:13:17.280 --> 00:13:23.880 We've got the new desks, tons of storage, that pegboard, he's got our new mod mat, 00:13:23.880 --> 00:13:27.000 got the MagSafe charger there. We've got your new speakers 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.800 so you can jam out while you're in here and this new shelf that holds all of your computers 00:13:30.800 --> 00:13:36.320 so neat and tidy. Yes. If you do, and I know it's easy to fall into old habits, 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:40.600 you're not going to, right? No, no. Everything's gonna be clean. Forever, everything will be like this. 00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:44.800 At least in here, I don't care what you do any other room, but this one needs to stay clean. 00:13:44.800 --> 00:13:48.680 For you? I won't even use it. That's perfect, that's what we want. 00:13:48.680 --> 00:13:53.400 And if you do decide to use it and make it messy eventually, you have this nice little extra movable table 00:13:53.400 --> 00:13:57.000 that you can bring on over if you need a little bit of extra workspace or for anything else. 00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.040 And it's got even more storage in there. 00:14:00.040 --> 00:14:03.400 I mean, it's still obviously a functional space, you know? 00:14:03.400 --> 00:14:08.940 Like there's a lot of kind of stuff on the shelves, but at least he's got enough shelves to put everything on. 00:14:08.940 --> 00:14:13.120 It's amazing what a difference maker, a little bit of organized storage can be. 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.280 This is great. Yeah, great job, you guys. 00:14:16.280 --> 00:14:20.520 Doesn't it feel good? It feels great. This is amazing, thank you. Oh yeah, and also we've got your Ugreen NAS. 00:14:20.520 --> 00:14:23.600 How can we forget about them? Thanks again, Ugreen, for sponsoring this video, 00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:27.960 whether it's a NAS or a portable battery bank or just a cute little charger. 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:32.480 They got something for all of your charging needs. Check them out in the link in the description, 00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:35.960 especially the NAS. The NAS is really, really cool. I'm very excited about it. 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.440 Thanks for watching. If you liked this video, why don't you watch a previous episode of The Set Up Doctor? 00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.920 It's just as fun and it's pretty dang cool. And Reese is in it and everyone loves Reese. 00:14:43.920 --> 00:14:47.120 Look at him. Hi, hi. And thank you, Brian, for having us out here. 00:14:47.120 --> 00:14:50.640 Yeah, thanks for coming and doing this for me. I really appreciate it. Bye. Bye. 00:14:50.640 --> 00:14:52.000 Thank you, thanks, Ugreen.
