    Very neat solution to a common problem. I love the simplicity combined with the design aesthetics -- this could easily be an affordable commercial kit product. I also really enjoyed you taking us through the process and the the problem-solving.

    Turned out great I really like the foot idea you added to help with the angle cause it will let you play with and see what works best and if you move it you can make sure it's stable

    Oh, I love the efficiency of your space. I don't enough room for my tools, so they're spread out among a storage room, carport, garden shed, and attic. Certainly not conducive to making something like this. Good on you for your most excellent build!

    Love it! Could also have V notches on the back of each shelf (on the top of each shelf) to make them more level.

    Very nice. Love your approach, your wood shop and that beautiful smile of yours. This would look very cool with mahogany edge banding and some nice dark stain with a stain finish.

    Like that, I spend too much time in the working week sitting at my desk. I think I will go and try this one out, or use it as a basis of something more specific for my needs (twin monitors) , thank you , great idea, made to look so simple

    If you add a v-groove on the top of the tongue(s) where it meets the back (after it goes through the upright), it will drop the angle as well.

  • @jimheom3788
    @jimheom3788 7 месяцев назад

    a notch on the top side of the tongue could also be used to bring the shelves to level

    Something to look into if you ever do more of these angled type jobs, but if you had a vertical tilting router table then you could set the angle for each slot to be at the angle you needed the shelf to be and gotten a tighter fit... Some lifts offer the option to tilt, just like a table saw. While some tables can be tilted or you could make a jig to set the work piece at the angle...

    Not sure if I would need a standing laptop stand personally. But I can see many people sucking up your design or at least wanting to purchase one from you. I love your design and the process you went through to build that uber clean stand. Very well done.

  • @margildejesusfloresmartine1982

    I enjoy your videos and your Work so Clean and neat. It seems that is made up to the presentation video but I am pretty sure that is your workstyle and this is awesome I am learini this from you also to be clean when working the wood.

    @johndoe6032 Год назад

    Great design! Reminds me of my daughter?s adjustable Tripp Trapp chair.
    Would the angle have been better if you made wider slots? Maybe 1 1/4”?

  • @Thrift-T_Treasures
    @Thrift-T_Treasures Год назад

    What kind of angle finder is that? I've never seen one like that. Looks like something I need.

    Router feed direction: a good way to remember is grab your hand held router with your right hand, your thumb should point toward the workpiece edge, your pointer finger points the direction to move the router.

  • @opalko67

    Cool build but is it wobbly? In the last 10 seconds or so of the video it seems to have a fair amount of shakiness to it when you are using it.

    Rien d’interessant à dire, juste un commentaire pour le referencement, mais en Français est-ce que cela marche ?

  • @thomasbrovarone7136
    @thomasbrovarone7136 Год назад

    Shelf Sizes: is the usable size of the shelves 32x14 and 14x14? If so, the blank needs to be bigger to accommodate the tongue, correct ?
    I think I found the answer based on measuring a laptop and keyboard. sizes in the blog are the overall size and you cut out the tongues

    You mention both counter clockwise and clockwise on inside edges in this video; which is a bit confusing. Otherwise great build!
