    Realistically I am looking to build a wall to attach some ikea furniture so I just need the plywood and tools. But as a art historian I love the craftsmanship in this project and your attention to detail! Also if you ever decide to change the green color, you can always use a light pink or red to tone the green down on that panel. The beauty of being an art historian is I had to learn color theory. So you do not have to repaint the whole wall you can just switch the led colors around on that green panel to red or pink to tone the brightness of the green down and soften it so it is less harsh on the eyes and it will blend the two colors but the led light will make the wall still pop out.

  • @mikedrop4421
    @mikedrop4421 3 года назад +6

    Love that neon/lime green color. It pairs very well with light to medium grey (think battleship grey) and dark blues. For anyone building this at home you can cut about an inch off the width of the 2x4s to lighten them up. Instead of plywood cheap wall paneling is even thinner and very light but not as strong so the wood glue is a good idea. Don't skip it. Also if you wire in electrical box and outlet to an extension cord running outside the wall before you close off the wall would give you a point to add additional lights later or to be able to use the wall to power your devices.
    This is a great project idea he had

    Might I suggest wiring the wall for power, with a cord to plug it into house power? Either actual wiring or an outlet strip near the bottom. That would make life easier trying to plug stuff in, especially if the wall ends up covering the normal outlets or blocking the rest of the room.

      I don’t buy fasteners at home depot anywhere unless it is an emergency . I and my family in the Philadelphia and harisburgh area have had rotten luck with the quality of their fasteners. Mounting a large power transformer into concrete the lag bolts sheared had to unbolt the installed bolts and hammer drill new anchors. Same thing happened to my nephew going into wood. I use my local True Value store or another hardware store for fasteners.

    This is awesome!! Question for you. I really want to make one of these as a backdrop for a faux kitchen setup that I am trying to build. My question is I would love to add some floating shelves onto the side where you attached the mismatch planks. If I were to do that, what additional processes would you suggest to attach them without worrying about them falling off. I would plan to stage jars of ingredients, herbs, etc. nothing too heavy, but things to make it look like a real kitchen. thank you for the video, it was great and awesome inspiration.

    "The wall is done but it's 2020 and I feel like dat ain't gonna cut it so I'ma add some LEDs" What a time to be alive, when you can touch up absolutely anything with LEDs

    Damnit Glen! You just keep adding project to my backlog!! lol Looks amazing!!
    I thought of a cool idea with it too!
    Make one side a green screen and one with green panels
    Have a web cam on the side with panels and impose images/videos/Gifs on those panels
    Then you sit in front of the green screen and put the other side of the panel as your background.
    Boom! Your background now has infinitely changeable posters, or portals into other worlds etc.
    This is why I shouldn't watch your channel... because now I'm trying to figure out if I can justify this build.....
    Amazing work!
