Building A Simple Book Case! Woodworking How To
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 мар 2019
- In this video I build a bookcase for a local clients media room. This project might look complicated but the assembly of this is very simple and easy.
Follow along to see how I use this 1 x 12 primed pine, a brad nailer and miter saw to make this 80" x 120" built in.

Fits well into my space, I painted the back green. It's very easy to customize just the back if that's something you want to do. I would suggest sanding it first before painting, I got a little impatient. The shelves ruclips.net/user/postUgkxM8H4CjCb79vzeyvgaFMdzmLm88oVFPMkare pretty small so keep that in mind if you're going to have it horizontal that some books won't fit. I like the snug look that it has. Good small shelf if you don't have much space, but not too small. Simple to put together, though you'll need your own tools, a screwdriver and a mallet/hammer, it's easiest to do with another person.
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
Now THIS is how to make an effective RUclips video - no annoying music, clearly articulated instruction, great video angles and clarity. Well done, Sir. As to the bookshelf; beautiful indeed. Looks way more 'expensive' with the wide vertical pillars. Would have loved to have seen it once installed and items on the shelves in your customers house. As to a comment below, yes, a bit of lighting would really add some dynamics to this unit. WELL DONE! Cheers from Canada......
Thank you!
He did post the finished version on instagram: instagram.com/p/BwFPXJYAzTc/
Do you have plans that I can download for this unit? Thank you. Absolutely beautiful
Winner of a video, I have been researching "build your furniture" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Venoffison Wooden Exploration - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cousin got excellent success with it.
You said it well, Rob Haskell!
what i have noticed is that everyone complimented you on the craftsmanship and the tutorial. although those are wonderful and make the video enjoyable to watch, the thing that caught my attention was how you kept saying that you were making everything easier for the painter, as well as the extra details you paid attention to so that the customer was happy with the final product. in a world where customer service is practically obsolete, its nice to see someone who understands the value of it. well done, sir. well done.
Thank you very much for watching! The only way to stay in business and maintain a reputation is to always be looking to over deliver!
Love it when someone says these types of shelves are really simple so anyone can build them; no they're not. It's only your good work ethic and attention to detail that makes it look easy. The hardest things to make and really look good are the simplest things, with no fancy molding to hide gaps and flaws. Great project. Total respect.
totally agree; he knows what he is doing and is very meticulous as you need to be for everything to line up. He makes it look simple, but until you try to make the cuts fit as his does, it is difficult to appreciate how challenging this can be.

It is still simple work that is very well made.
Probably the best "floating shelves" video I've seen. Thank you for using tools the rest of us can also use, instead of tools and setups that cost thousands of dollars. 4:43
my wife wants something similar to this, so thank you for showing how you did it. instead of middle shelving, we're going to get one of those electric heaters (*because they look cool*) with a TV above it. so this is very helpful!
Not only am I impressed with the work done, but I am also equally impressed with your workbench. That's what I'm talking about! Semper Fi
I’m a novice maker and I am so glad I found this video. I’ve been wanting to do built-ins in our den. Thank you for breaking down the steps and making an easy to follow video!
You and everyone in the world knows no novice built this. But great story.
Im so glad this exists. I am the same way when it comes to building. I make sure everything I need is clearly detailed and measured a dozen tomes over so I cut the minimum amount, conserve materials and save myself time. Thank you for the CRYSTAL CLEAR instruction
Straightforward execution of a handsome book-cased entertainment center with simple explanations on process! ♥️
No silly music or “fillers”.
This earned you another subscriber!
This video has really made me think more about building a shelf like this myself. It was very helpful.
Outstanding build, you continued to show that your project was obtainable by many of us. It was a pleasure to see you using a common brand of equipment that wasn't necessary on the higher end of the price tag. You are definitely a Journeyman with your craftsmanship and your willingness to share your talents with us.
Thank you! I appreciate the comment! I learned with the basic of basic tools and I hope to show other people that building something that looks complex isn’t that difficult when you break it down into pieces. Happy new year!
Thank you so much for this video, it has given me the confidence to attempt a "build-in" in my own home that I have wanted to do for some time.
Great job Chris! The whole finished room looks awesome!
Excellent--you do a great job communicating!
I love the word simple 😁 amazing to know how to build that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great project. Going into my saved list so I can watch it again when I attempt something like this!!!
Made me happy to see this, I made my first bookshelf this way just with a facade. Defo wanna try another one with a facade just looking for a pocket hole jig.
Well made video. And I really appreciate seeing someone who does professional quality work. By that I mean the entire process, not just the end product. There are way too many "hillbilly" carpenters out there.
good job! First video i have seen from start to finish without skipping through!
Wow! That is a really good looking bookcase! You were right, seems complicated, but you made look super easy! Great job!
I like your methodology when building, I've learned the same sort of things from my boss at our small cabinet shop. The last 5% is where most get lazy but its the most important.
Great efficient building and great video, you just made another subscriber
It is finish that decides how it looks. A good finish such filling spaces, getting good registration and being square makes all the difference.
It can make a simple project look very high quality.
Nice looking unit. I love the high speed video, makes the project look so easy if only all projects could go that smooth.. Keep up the good work..
Still early but I signed up for for your channel that is turning out to be the best so far and I’ve been viewing. Thanks
Very nice work, Sir. I dabble in custom shelving and cabinetry also and you've given me lots of good ideas that will save time! Much appreciated, keep up the good work!
Awesome work.
Sir, that has to be the best done video I have ever watched. To the point, no stupid music and no excessive rambling. Beautiful shelving unit. New subscriber here. I am excited to start my unit. GREAT JOB!!!
Great job and thank you. One of my clients wants me to build a bookcase and you gave me a great way to build one.
Dude, you did a really good job. Simple, stylish and modern. Congratulations
Awesome job mate.. 👏 I made something similar that took about 7 working days but I sprayed it also and had bottom cabinets on each side with shaker glass doors. One thing I do with making shelves look thick is use 1/2 plywood for top and bottom and flush up a block to fill the void of whatever size shelf I'm making and edge band it. Comes out super clean no miter breaking and it's pretty quick and gives the appearance of one solid piece.
Fantastic video. I built your bookshelf with my brother in two day, start to finished painting. Thanks!
Awesome!!! I love hearing that!
Excellent job for your client. More importantly for the rest of us, excellent explanation!
Really, really great job. Clean assembly, good site practice and real pride in your work.
Great job man, thanks for explaining so well
You are awesome. Sharing this with my husband. God bless.
Man your an absolute beauty. Awesome video to watch. Glad to see someone else takes pride and care so much in what they do. Keep it up!!
This is such a great skill to have.
I am not qualified to do this, but I might try something smaller to start. It's a really amazing & beautiful result.
Great job, Chris.
Great job over all. You’re a PRO.....
This is an awesome build! Very sharp and clean looking!
This was an awesome build! thank you for sharing!
Superbbbbb.!!!!!!
Haré uno.
You make it look so easy. Wish I had a workshop that big.
It definitely makes like easier when doing something this large, i am very thankful for it. Usually I would do a project like this on site if I had the time. If you pick your dimensional lumber right you could basically do this with just a miter saw and brad nailer.
Beautiful work!
Nice work, great detail in your video. I have several shelving units to do in a new house and this gave me some great pointers! Thank you!
Man, the story pole trick is just simply amazing, simple and time saver.. Kudos..!! :-)
Thank you! Its a great one itll help you all over the shop!
You really nailed it! Nice job!
Very nice, real clean. Thanks for the great work.
Nice work. You make it look easy. Keep the videos coming.
Very Impressive Job! 5 stars for your smart comments and walkthrough!!
Nice work, the cabinet turned out beautiful.
Super nice .i love the illusion of thickness of the shelves .it makes a huge difference as opposed to a 3/4 " face .
The video is also excellent your narration perfectly follows what is being seen without a bunch or pointless rambling .also good lighting .👍👍👍
Looks awesome! Great video! I'm thinking of doing a built in for my wife in out bonus room. No where near as tall but some of your methods here will be quite useful for that project! Great job!
Stunning work and very well illustrated!
I made a wall-to-wall bookcase in my office/library. I used a Kreg jig and it made it so much easier to attach the shelves to the vertical panels. I was very happy with it considering I had never made a bookcase before. I really enjoyed your video. You showed all the steps and no annoying high-pitched woman singing in the background. You inspired me to make a similar unit for my living room to surround our TV!
It looks like a thick solid wood was used. Amazing!
That Bosch saw is sick
Love it! Thanks for showing the process! My wife wants me to build something like this and I want to use my new table saw!
Love the work on top of the table, Chris. You do very good work. Wish you were in my area.
Great economy build. Nice video, no BS, all business.
Excellent project thoughtfully executed!
Nice job!
I love this. Been wanting to do built in shelving around my fireplace with a cavity to run lighting, and audio..
Great work.
Something to be proud of.
Nice job, you knocked that 1 out of the park.
Well done! Thx for posting
At our shop here in Austin Texas, we use a woodworking app called Woodmaster to calculate all the shelving spacing for us when we build custom units like these. Very handy tool to have on hand.
Can you make something like this for a customer in the Austin area?
I like this project it had a lot of information on how to out this together
Thats a very professional work. Thanks for sharing the video.
Great build! Thanks.
Fabulous craftsmanship!!
Good job. You just gave me an idea for my entertainment system.
Really nice work. Very much like all your attention to the smallest details.
You inspired me sir!!! Thank you!!
Great job! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾📐🔨

Great video. Love the cabinet. And I fully agree with what @Rob Haskell says below about no annoying music.

Hey guys, can confirm this works great, have made 3 of these in time it took me to watch this video!

Who in the world would need something that big.
Cool video. I appreciate quality craftsmanship. :)
Wow. Amazing Job.
