The neck width at the nut for a classical guitar will be wider than that of a standard folk or electric guitar. The industry which manufactures these hangers solves for this by angling the tips up and making the post wider at the front and skinnier at the back. So the neck sort of slides back to find it’s own width comfortably.
Great vid! For any DIYers looking to make the same thing but lack some of the tools (especially a bandsaw). It's possible to make a guitar wall mount with those threaded "U-shaped" wall hooks they sell at the hardware store and a block of wood. All you need is a drill for the pilot holes and any tools necessary to make it look nice (e.g. sanding, routing, etc.). They make great easy gifts for friends with guitars.
I have several guitar hangers on my walls. I hate when the guitar bumps into the wall (both for the wall's sake and the guitar's), so I got a few of those free square carpet samples from my local Home Depot and stuck one on the wall underneath each hanger to protect the guitar from bumping the wall. Works great.
i've build a similar one a few years ago, for thiner necks you can use a hole saw and then cut one third of it off, it was easyer for me since i don't have a bandsaw, i also angled it up a bit to make sure the guitar does not fall off
You recognized that one? My mom bought it way back, never got too far with it. We let the kids play with it, but good to get it out of reach most of the time!
Nice! Did something similar on a “me do” list to hang my necked instruments from a wrought iron staircase…I wish I’d had the tools to do so nice a job. (Me do lists were when I was single.)
A while back I bought some of those cheapy plastic ones with the self closing gates on the front. They work well, but now wondering if those could've been replicated in wood somehow.
Hey, Matthias, or should I say hunny. Could you come to the States, to Indiana to be a bit more exact. And come to my tiny shop and help me improve the small space I'm working with? And maybe while your here you could help me build one of those belt Sanders? Huh? Huh? No, I'm just playing. However I must say, if I where loaded, rolling in the dough, stacked, you know what I mean.. if I had the money. I'd be trying to pay you to fly out here, and help me out for a couple days.... lol I digress. Just wanted to tell you that you're an inspiration. And I really truly appreciate your work. Keep up the great work. And the intelligent way that you do it my friend. Take care. - A viewer from Indiana.. lol
What is your rationale for using a post-it while drilling in a wall? I sometimes tape a sandwich bag to the wall directly under the hole to catch the (falling) dust, but airborne and flying dust mean you need to vacuum anyway.
at 2:35 you use a post-it glued to the wall. if you fold it in 2, from bottom to top, you could make a V shape one that would collect the dust that fells when you drill the holes.
Well, any new design should start with analysis of existing solutions. As many noticed, no guards against falling off, damage of finish or proper solution for different neck widths and detuning. Contact with wall surface is also a bad idea.
I would make something to support the body as well, I usually buy 2 neck holders per guitar, one for the neck . and one for under the but of the body at the back strap button , hanging them by just the neck can ruin the neck over time. you really should support the body too.
Problem with guitar hangers is to check the finish on the hanger (or the protection foam or in this case leather) does not react with the finish on the guitar, otherwise after some time, it can peel off the guitar. In a classical guitar probably will not be much of an issue, but in electric guitars also the weight is an issue.
That’s usually an issue with lacquer finished guitars, including nitrocellulose. But a stand/holder with a cured finish is not the problem: its the foam some manufacturers use
Ok, I have seen that so many times now, I have to ask, how can you route with such ease a full depth cut and not have the piece ripped out of your hands (or fingers rather)?? Edit: I'm talking about 1:30 specifically, but also about other videos. Especially such a small workpiece is impossible to round over on the router if I tried it at full depth. I've also seen on your older videos how you just route a full depth dado groove for shelves in one go with a handheld plunge router, without the wood burned or routerbit destroying itself. If I tried that, the bit wouldn't even cut as far as one bit diameter into the wood, it just wouldn't be able to get full depth chips, it would produce a very fine dusting and rub tiself and the wood hot. Aren't these just standard carbide tipped woodworking router bits you get at any hardware store?
@@gorak9000 I'm very well aware of it being a roundover bit, thanks. That's why I said "round over" in my comment. And yes, it is a full depth cut because he cuts the full depth of the cut in one pass.
It's actually the mice that come out at night and make all the projects, and Simpkin the cat goes to the store to get all the supplies, all while Matthias has a covid induced fever dream. When they run out of material, they leave a little note, "no more twist".
You had a post it note to mark the stud, if you fold up the bottom it catches the dust instead of having to vacuum it up. I forget where I first saw that tip. Then again it isn't that hard to vacuum either.
do you have to know the guitar show is on TV is an elder gentleman that builds guitars and mandolins you just spoke of you highly I hope they learn a lot from you also my friend is Rosa string works
I am unreasonably excited to see the pipe organ making an appearance again, even if being used as a step stool
Had to get a stand test in there, even if it's not on the item being made 😅😅

Mhm, the average being a two-inch nut width

Props to the homemade pipe organ cameo, even if it only functions as a stool in this video
2:10 The hot air for hot the glue is pretty smart
The Rachel’s Wishlist videos are my personal favorite!
Of all the channels I subscribe to, I look forward to watching your new videos, second to none. Thank you for taking the time to share.
Matthias, I'm so happy to see that you're up to more woodworking projects. I hope the elbow or shoulder (I can't remember which) has healed up.

I used to make swiveling hangers from large dowels. Wasn't the most elegant thing, but it worked. Was based on the string swing guitar holders.
i've build a similar one a few years ago, for thiner necks you can use a hole saw and then cut one third of it off, it was easyer for me since i don't have a bandsaw, i also angled it up a bit to make sure the guitar does not fall off
I love it all. The hangers and the guitars.
I created a similar hanging station for our worship team but utilized a french cleat system, works great!
Wait a minute... is Matthias making a career out of knocking out his "honey-do" list??
Hello, welcome to his youtube channel. I recommend his most popular videos and the video of him marking a bookshelf where he loses his temper.
@@spinningchurro I don't remember that one. Which one was that?
Just trying to get laid
@@tonispiip8054 maybe he means "Pantry closet shelves"
I like how every piece of furniture in Matthias' house also doubles as step stool...cause you know he built it his way
I need to make a ukulele holder. Thanks for the inspiration!
Would be cool to come up with a wooden version of the hangers that close with the weight of the guitar. I have a Hercules stand that does this.
Hey hey! A Bavarian made Framus, with a set-neck, no less! Mid to late '50s, I'd imagine- I had no idea Rachel was such a collector
You recognized that one? My mom bought it way back, never got too far with it. We let the kids play with it, but good to get it out of reach most of the time!
Sorry off topic... Just stopping in to say you're AWESOME!! Take care Bill
Was hoping for a little classical picking closing music. Nice work, thanks for the quick project video.
I don't play the guitar. Plus, that sort of thing would make the video do even worse.
@@matthiaswandel you're probably right.
For my guitar is a coloured package cord (permanetly on the top of the guitar) and a nail in the wall enough.
Wow nice! Who all plays guitar 🎸 in the family? 🤔
Love the leather strip as scuff pad.
No sleeping on the couch for you!! 😉
Good work!!
Neat little project. Wonderful as always
Great idea with the leather lining!
Nice! Did something similar on a “me do” list to hang my necked instruments from a wrought iron staircase…I wish I’d had the tools to do so nice a job. (Me do lists were when I was single.)
I also made a wooden hanger similar to this, only I used rubber instead of leather. I think overtime the leather is better and will last longer.
Be carefull with the rubber if you are using it with nitro, it can depending on the rubber melt the laquor.
Damn Wandel you seem to have a lot of faith in your drywall and drywall screws.
A while back I bought some of those cheapy plastic ones with the self closing gates on the front. They work well, but now wondering if those could've been replicated in wood somehow.

Nice little project!
I love these Honeydew list videos.
These looks great, I’d like wall hangers but my basses would rip them out the wall unfortunately.
I could probably hang my weight off one before it comes out of the wall. I screwed them to the studs.
@@matthiaswandel Oh cool, even then in my house I’m not sure 🤦♂️
Tip: fold the sticky note (like |/ viewed from the side) to catch the drywall dust.
I do this all the time 👍 no mess
Yoghurt to seal plywood. Works every time! 👍
Sturdy pipe organ console.
What was that thing you stood on at the end?
Edit: Home made pipe organ!
Wonder if you could make a holder for your ukulele with the off-cuts?!
Thank you for the simple design and brilliant idea. I have had 3 guitars I’ve been lugging around for years and damaging.
Is this Really a human comment?
I've heard of milk paint, but yoghurt?
Lol he always repurposes those yogurt cups haha
Weldwood contact cement works well with leather to wood.
And hot glue isn't as stinky, bonds straight away, and doesn't go bad
Oleeee , para cuando el concierto 😁😁
My guitar hanger only had to fit one guitar, so I used a couple pegs that fit in the tuning screw slots.
Nice, Why did you select Ply for the neck?
cause it needs to be strong in every direction to not split apart
Nice solution.
What is your rationale for using a post-it while drilling in a wall?
I sometimes tape a sandwich bag to the wall directly under the hole to catch the (falling) dust, but airborne and flying dust mean you need to vacuum anyway.
needed something for the camera to focus on
Cool! Waitaminute...what's that piano-looking-thing you stood on at the end of the video?!
Don't worry, it's a load rated piano.
Pipe organ. If you search his website, you can find it.
with this look & finish, i would have to sleep on the couch
A block of wood with some leather/felt at the bottom of the guitar will keep them from getting scratched along the bottom bout.
at 2:35 you use a post-it glued to the wall. if you fold it in 2, from bottom to top, you could make a V shape one that would collect the dust that fells when you drill the holes.
I think it was the initial purpose but Matthias forgot to fold it ^_^
@@lomicwind He said in anoher comment that is was to get the camera to focus.
Does your belt sander ever act a bit like a van de graff generator?
Another one off the list? Hahaha. Satisfying! But there’s always room for more.
That's next level trolling with that post-it-note, right?
Nicely done! Ah yes, the never ending "Honey Do" list! 😂😂🎸🎸
Right, it's a FIFO
@@CraigHollabaugh For me it's a priority queue w/ the ordering shifting around on a daily basis :P
Nice job!
Fold that sticky-note to catch the dust when drilling drywall
I have guitars myself. I did have a band & a recording set up. Did you consder a cleat setup for instrument holders etc to keep things flexible.
I'm not that into music
yogurt is the best wood finish
What's the story on with that piano you were using as a step stool?
Hey you should put leather on those so you don't damage the....uhhh, nevermind. Great as always Matthias!
Well, any new design should start with analysis of existing solutions. As many noticed, no guards against falling off, damage of finish or proper solution for different neck widths and detuning. Contact with wall surface is also a bad idea.
Nice as usual. Since they're made from plywood, I would have painted them...black probably.
I would make something to support the body as well, I usually buy 2 neck holders per guitar, one for the neck . and one for under the but of the body at the back strap button , hanging them by just the neck can ruin the neck over time. you really should support the body too.
So the thousands of guitars hanging in Guitar store are all destined to be junk? You're overthinking a problem that doesn't exist.
@@KipdoesStuff Sit down "kip".

Thats why he wrapped it in leather at the end, I guess 🙂
This happened to my guitars too, what I've done was to place a small cutout wax paper in between the guitar and the hangers, and that worked.
That’s usually an issue with lacquer finished guitars, including nitrocellulose. But a stand/holder with a cured finish is not the problem: its the foam some manufacturers use
1 down, 3 added.
Another "one" off the list while two new ones were added in the meantime? Seems to be how it works for me anyway :)
As they are bespoke one off.why didn't you make different sizes ?
cause I figured it's best if each guitar fits in every one of them

1:30 isn't a full depth cut - that's a roundover bit just knocking the corners down

The power of editing (it seems sped up). Or he's better craftsman? I didn't see anything unusual.
hey matthais you should check out New Yorkshire Workshop
he makes some beautiful stuff
You have a special leather cutter right there 🤣
Your pencil drawing sound is almost the exact same sound the mice make when going through the mazes eating the peanut butter.
It's actually the mice that come out at night and make all the projects, and Simpkin the cat goes to the store to get all the supplies, all while Matthias has a covid induced fever dream. When they run out of material, they leave a little note, "no more twist".
What a man...
Well done.
Tell us, Matthias - who will be playing the guitars?
rachel is into it a bit.
Don’t play guitar but watched it anyway!
Very nice and useful video
great Post-It hack
@2:35, put a 90 degree fold in that post-it to catch the drywall dust...
good idea. It was there primarily for the camera to have something to focus on :)
@@matthiaswandel I thought is was for marking where the stud is.
What would men do without those lists?😊
Was also excited to make some like those and then... found them in a clearance bin at the guitarcenter for a 1.99 out of walnut 😐
👍
Murderface: What are those wooden things? Chairs?
Barkeep: They are acoustic instruments.
Toki: What is acoustic? Oh, you mean a grandpa's guitars?
😀👍😎🤘
Matthias, I'd love to see your content on Odysee!
Great job. I add felt to mine.
In a world of waste it is refreshing to see you use materials so efficiently.
👍🏻😀
Ahhh the never ending list..... :-)
Happy wife, happy life😃
OK, 1 item off the honey due list, 499 to go!
plywood? Walnut would make those pop
I thought, "Surely a case for pocket screws!" :-)
You had a post it note to mark the stud, if you fold up the bottom it catches the dust instead of having to vacuum it up. I forget where I first saw that tip. Then again it isn't that hard to vacuum either.
Yes! I usually use envelopes for this trick 👍
In the next video we will expect some Pickin and Grinnin.
So how much time does your wife give you to complete a honey-do list item? I have a 10 minute maximum and all projects must start a minute ago. :)
Really nice work, Matthias! 😃
That's a pretty good idea!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
GooD)))))))
do you have to know the guitar show is on TV is an elder gentleman that builds guitars and mandolins you just spoke of you highly I hope they learn a lot from you also my friend is Rosa string works
Let's see you play your guitars a bit!
