You did a great job. I need a mantel so I am going to make one. I am 67 yrs old woman and you made it easy to me to understand. Next buying my wood. I have some old planks I want to use and will use finishing nails.
Thank you for this! I’m looking at floating shelves for $250 and up and none are quite what i want, measurements or stain. Now I can make my own for a quarter of the price!
I'm DEFINITELY going to do this project this weekend. I'm waiting for a fireplace insert to arrive next week and I want to have the mantle completed before delivery. I feel like I can do this based on your instructions. Thanks!
Bro, jsut a comment. You are using the sliding miter saw backwards...look at the direction the blade is spinning. Just sore the top as you drag it back and plundge into the wood and push forward. You cuts will be clean and more accurate as you are also pushing the stock inot the fence....
Amazing and Beautiful video.. Great work. Very interesting and useful information👍 Thanks for sharing Do keep posting👌🆕 Warm regards and Best wishes The UnknownManCub 👍😎👨🏭
Turned out well, and simple to build. Thanks for sharing. I have one question on mounting. Is it strong enough to handle additional weight? Would using a French cleat mounting be stronger?
Hi Amar, thanks for commenting! Yes it's fairly strong for additional weight. I've had no problem. You could use a French cleat for extra strength but I wanted to make this as simple as possible.
Looks great! Definitely recommend though that you not post videos if you is power tool incorrectly😬 the way you used the sliding miter saw was incorrect and not safe.
When cutting anything with a sliding miter saw first pull the saw directly towards you then down then straight back all the way then once the cut is complete then let the saw back up. Going with your cut from the backside of the board you are cutting and pulling it towards you can cause the saw to “kick” and that can be bad my man. Hope that was easy to understand.
Overall, This is a good looking product. It works as advertised. My only issue is when i put my finger on the front glass switch, It doesn't come on. I have to use the remote.

The simplicity of this video is everything!!! Thank you!
I had my doubts, the finished product turned out well. Good job.
Thank you! Finally a tutorial without a table saw. I was thinking there has to be a way to do this without beveling with a table saw. 😊
Hardware stores will cut the wood to size. I plan to just take my measurements and have them cut. No saw necessary!
Thank you for making this look simple! No overly complicated cuts, easy talk through
Wow that turned out really nice,I like it 👍
Outstanding. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
This is possibly the most simplistic way I've seen..

I'm glad I could help! Have fun on your project!
Initial thought was uh oh…finished product looks amazing
Piece turned out beautifully! You probably could use the same technique to make ceiling beams 😃
Thanks! Yes, that would look very nice
Wow that is very impressive good job
Great editing turned put pretty nice! I'm looking to doing this with my fireplace

I'm glad, my video could help. I hope your project went well!

Amazing! This was awesome and easy to follow! Thank you!
Looks good
That looks dope good job
This is exactly what I was looking for
Thank you for such an easy tutorial.
Badass. You did a good job!
Absolutely gorgeous!
You can use wood veneer to eliminate the seams too. All you need is a clothes iron.
Good tip!

We did ours similar....but I think urs need to go up a bit higher
great job,,
Thanks!
Love it!! What guage brads did you use and where did you get your gun? I love it!
Hey! Thanks for the comment. I used an 18 gauge gun. I bought it from Canadian Tire (I'm in Canada)
Beautiful!
Nice video, thanks
It always cracks me up when people wear flip flops while doing carpentry.
Love this!
Thank you this awesome
Looks beautiful! Thank you for the video. When you used the white paint, was semi-gloss or no gloss?
No gloss, I believe it was eggshell
Looks great! Definitely recommend though that you not post videos if you is power tool incorrectly😬 the way you used the sliding miter saw was incorrect and not safe.
I am learning. Would appreciate if you could please point out what was wrong with miter saw, and how to correct it. Thanks.

Going with your cut from the backside of the board you are cutting and pulling it towards you can cause the saw to “kick” and that can be bad my man. Hope that was easy to understand.
Thank you ❤
Never seen someone use a slider like that.
Overall, This is a good looking product. It works as advertised. My only issue is when i put my finger on the front glass switch, It doesn't come on. I have to use the remote.
I hope I don’t mess this up 🤦🏾♀️
Good luck!
Beautiful!!!
