It’s a lot easier to sand the slats if you clamp them together like a board (think butcher block). Then using the orbital sander running On a wide flat surface and you don’t feel near as much vibration because of the heavy mass of the “board”. Drum sander is a lot less work and faster but most don’t have access to one.
I just use PVA, let if go slightly tacky then sand the wood meaning the sawdust is a perfect match for every hole being filled. In the UK as you cant nail to internal walls as most are block work (except cheaply made new builds, they have thin timber internal walls) I would just mount the slats onto thin ply from behind then just mount the full board to the wall. Im really not a fan of using adhesive when it can be avoided and it means this panel can simply be unscrewed in the future. The end result is really good here and way better attention to detail than alot of other DIY vids!
My boyfriend and I are working on our first house. It was built in 1940 and the walls are all constructed of horizontal wood boards. Unfortunately it was never insulated or weather proofed. So much of the wood has been damaged. We are keeping it wherever it's not damaged, bathroom, living room ceiling, and I'm looking for something that would compliment the shiplap look and create more depth. I'm now leaning towards this! It looks beautiful.
Looks nice. Just a tip if you ever want to do another wall. Use the level only on the first board to get the reference square. Then you just cut a spacer block to stick between the first and next board and nail it is. No need to reset the level. Likely you could have knocked that wall out in 20 minutes once the reference is set.
Sanders - Buy Festo. I've owned one for 30 years - it doesn't fatigue the hands because it is balanced. The hardware store sanders vibrate, causing fatigue and RSI damage to joints.
I LOVE THIS !!! i thinking of a media wall but wasnt sure i would be in love. I think this gives me the look i am going for without being too cumbersome.
my fav tool for most projects is my oscilating cordless dewalt. until you have one you just dont realize what you are missing, cut screws, drywall, notches, glue/caulking etc... it always has a battery in it ready to do.
Love the results. May I ask why didn't you use the saw dust and mix that with wood glue to fill the holes. That way you have the exact colour, I think 😊
For days I've been thinking and wondering what I could do in my home office to finish giving it that "original" and distinguished look, taking into account that it's only a section within an open-concept floor plan, so I wish that differentiates itself in some way from the rest of the other areas. I just added a Protractor Desk from Manhattan Home Design, and after watching your tutorial I think I know exactly what I'm going to do to get what I want ;). Thanks for sharing it with us!
one question, are you drilling the TV to studs? Do you want to figure out where those are before you put the slats on? I can't imagine securing the TV just to the slats would be strong enough?
Oh Yesss. Great job. Is there a way to do this without the first machine you were using in the video? I don't know what it was called...lol. But I know I don't have one. Please help. I need this wall in my life..!!!!!
Looking good! Bet you’ll never sand by hand again. Definitely better paying extra for lumber that is already cut and sanded u just need to hand pick the straight pieces
Nice video. Watching you struggle inspired me to look up bolt on slat walls. Hurts to think about, but there are comparable products out there to what you did for $250 dollars.
We just finished interior work in our apartment, and this kind of surface is a no no in India. The amount of cleaning it will require with ample dust in the city makes it impractical.
The book provides clear illustrations ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO diagrams that cover many of the essential topics. The projects at the end of the book are valuable for enhancing your skills and creating your own furniture. A digital platform linked to the book that could offer the plans for other woodworking projects with the cut sheets would have been a nice addition, but overall, the book is excellent.
I did saw mine a little wider and then planed all 4 sides. Then you don't have to sand so much anymore. For placing the slats set the first with the laser and the following using 2 spacer blocks. That would've been so much faster. But in the end it's the final result that counts.
I'm going to plane all mine to the smooth mill glazing, then route the edges or maybe use a sanding block or chamfer plane then leave it unfinished. I'll prob end up painting it anyway.
nice work , looks good, however, im very surprised to see a woodworker with a known safety hazard dangling off of their head and swinging very dangerously close to their power tools. Be safe and keep up the good work.
@@garybecker4490 Yeah I agree but it is misleading…… Found this. - The actual hardness of a wood varies from tree to tree. Oak and Walnut are considered hard hardwood. However, Balsa wood is classified as a hardwood but is so soft and lightweight that it is used for model airplanes. On the other hand, Douglas Fir is classified as a softwood. But it's hard and durable enough to be used as flooring and siding….. I stand corrected (sort of). Poplar is a soft hardwood. Yikes
well atleast they tried even though it looks bad..,maybe next time take a picture of the wall first and try the decor out in paint or photoshop first :)
The circular saw and the dangling headphone wire...I did the same thing with a power sander and almost kissed the thing never ever wear headphones while using power tools unless it is under your shirt.
I like what the other poster Charles said, attach slats to 2-3 rails and attach the entire piece to wall. Then you can take with you if you move or change decor later.
In the first place: Why a vertical slat wall. In the second: Why not assemble the slats on a triplet of horizontal rails, and then attach the entire unit to the main wall, so that it can be dismounted, relocated, etc.

I wondered what you would do with all that blank ultra modern wall space, this is a great tie in with the poplar features.
You've made our products very beautiful. It's great
The walls look absolutely great. You are such a talented and gifted lady.
I was also looking for a hardwood slat wall. The ones from the shelf or so low quality. Thanks for sharing looks great and provides a cohesive design.
my fav tool for most projects is my oscilating cordless dewalt. until you have one you just dont realize what you are missing, cut screws, drywall, notches, glue/caulking etc... it always has a battery in it ready to do.
Nice work! I love all your finishing touches you’re adding to your beautiful home.
In cases like this wood veneer is your best friend. This is madness.
That project turned out amazing! I’m planning on adding some slats to my master bedroom and bathroom renovation I’m doing right now.
Love the results. May I ask why didn't you use the saw dust and mix that with wood glue to fill the holes. That way you have the exact colour, I think 😊
Beautiful work! The TV should be much lower, what you think?
A great look, however dusting and painting in between in the future?
Intensive project compared with just buying premade slats, but the end product is worth it; great video as always
heyyy.. please what app do you make use of for your 3d model?
Looks great. Nice addition.
Bill
It’s really nice but the work and tools it entails is a bit costly for an average DIY beginner. Thank you for sharing.
Love the detail it adds to the house!
Great Video!! thank you!! what program did you use to 3d your project before you started?

Hi there. What was the size of the gaps? 7:26
Good I'm happy to watching your videos thank you
one question, are you drilling the TV to studs? Do you want to figure out where those are before you put the slats on? I can't imagine securing the TV just to the slats would be strong enough?
OK blue I'm an instant fan
First time watching your videos, love your shop and the project. Well done, thanks for sharing
Great video!
Great job guys, the house looks amazing!!!!
Amazing video! Thank you for sharing. What was the program you used to plan out your wall prior to starting?
Great job! It looks amazing!
Hello, Congratulations Cool 👍👏👏👏
Greta job! What adhesive did you use?
Nice work.
Great work, thanks for sharing. Coincidentally I was thinking about your projects yesterday, wondering when the next one was going to come.
looks great. what software did you use for the 3dmodels ?
I really like the look of the poplar. I wonder how much the stripes changed the sound in your living room and your kitchen.
DOER? I barely know ER!
Pssst, why fuzz out the daps?
Oh, this looks fabulous and your timing is good as I'm working on something similar.
First I like so much your hair cut and hair color great taste 👍and very stylish
cool. these give me an idea to make solid wood + resin slat.
hello a question is your wall in wood? my wall is in concrete the nail gun is not good? thanks
Excellent video 👍 appreciate your hard work and accuracy. Mine won't be quite as polished 😂
Oh Yesss. Great job. Is there a way to do this without the first machine you were using in the video? I don't know what it was called...lol. But I know I don't have one. Please help. I need this wall in my life..!!!!!
Oooo I really like this! Great Job Love! 😍
I would love to do things like this... Buuut need a house first! Lol 😅
Could you install and mount something vertical in my bedroom too?
Looking good! Bet you’ll never sand by hand again. Definitely better paying extra for lumber that is already cut and sanded u just need to hand pick the straight pieces
which software you used to get 3D view. I am building a similar TV wall in my living room, hence i need to preview it
It looks pretty cool at the end really awesome great smart work 😊👍
This is absolutely awesome. Great work and so inspiring !
My drywall is not installed until the concrete slab. There is a 1” gap between vinyl floor and drywall. Do you think i should remove the baseboard?
Looks fantastic!!!
amazing work 👌🏻💯
the aunty has done a great job....
흥미로운 영상 잘 보았습니다!
감사합니다!👍
Love this touch! Easy to do. Great video!! 💛
إبداع !
عمل يستحق الإعجاب !
مشاء الله .
This is a fantastic project, and now my wife wants this in our bedroom. What lumber store did you use?
I went to Timber Hardwood in Mesa
Good job
Beautiful 💣
Pretty beautiful work! The walls look amazing! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
What is the width and depth of each slat? And how much is distance between each slat?
Can I just use wood glue to hold them??
Nice video. Watching you struggle inspired me to look up bolt on slat walls. Hurts to think about, but there are comparable products out there to what you did for $250 dollars.
This is bad ass I like it awesoME job
What is the wood workers group name in Arizona?

i like your hair colour maam... more than the brown wooden slat wall
Goodd Ideaa...!!...Gracias por Compartir Lindaaa....!!!...ji ji ji
nice work , looks good, however, im very surprised to see a woodworker with a known safety hazard dangling off of their head and swinging very dangerously close to their power tools. Be safe and keep up the good work.
Тоже хочу часть стены в санузле отделать деревянными рейками.
1st here! Killed it young Lady!
I find you so attractive... great skill, talent and a beauty
Poplar is a hardwood in name only. If it’s a hardwood these days it’s the softest hardwood.
Balsa is a hardwood too!

With all the reflective surfaces in the building (concrete floor, etc), curious if the slat wall helps break up echo and other sounds.
🤔
Nice
BGZ?
Looks fantastic, but that's a lot of work!
Boy this really was diy
Like your hair color
Muito bonito 🥇
WoW
Looks great, but I bet its a bugger to clean.
well atleast they tried even though it looks bad..,maybe next time take a picture of the wall first and try the decor out in paint or photoshop first :)
The circular saw and the dangling headphone wire...I did the same thing with a power sander and almost kissed the thing never ever wear headphones while using power tools unless it is under your shirt.
What happens when I don't like it any more? They are glued to the wall..
you take it off...? what you are willing to put up you need to except that you'll probably take it down at some point lol
Take it off and redo the Sheetrock. Easier than doing what she did too.
Why would you not like it anymore?? 🤷♀
I like what the other poster Charles said, attach slats to 2-3 rails and attach the entire piece to wall. Then you can take with you if you move or change decor later.
By the time you don’t like it you should be moving lol
First thing you need to make this cheaper is a carpentry shop...
Some wood and several thousand dollars worth of equipment. Just buy it cut and planed to size.
Im Im love ❤️😍😍😍 😳😳😳😳😍😍
What? I powered caulking gun? My arthritis thanks you.
