- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- 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.
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!
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.
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.
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
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!
This video has really made me think more about building a shelf like this myself. It was very helpful.
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
Straightforward execution of a handsome book-cased entertainment center with simple explanations on process! ♥️
No silly music or “fillers”.
This earned you another subscriber!
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.
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.
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!
Fantastic video. I built your bookshelf with my brother in two day, start to finished painting. Thanks!
Awesome!!! I love hearing that!
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!!!
Those 4" shelves could have made for some really cool hidden drawers. Great looking build.
totally! maybe something to add in the future! it wouldnt be a big deal to pop those faces off and make new ones with drawers... Thanks you!
@@MakeEverything I would love to see this, can we please have another video?
@@MakeEverything I agree the drawers would be a great for small items like remotes personal note books etc. But, didn't you use spacer/ supports in between the top and bottom of the shelves. Or would that only be necessary for the longest of the shelves.
Especially with the push to open drawers
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.
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?
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.
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!
It looks like a thick solid wood was used. Amazing!
I am a hobbyist. What I do not understand (like ever) is how these masters can be so sure of right angle corners without using any right angle clamps. Great build. The video was a little too fast for me but I will have to watch it again anyway. So no problem. Thanks, Regards,
Also as a hobbyist.... I have always managed with angled corners by knowing the dimensions needed (e.g. 5" inner/outer). Also helps to use stop-blocks on the saw like in this vid.
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
Hey guys, can confirm this works great, have made 3 of these in time it took me to watch this video!
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 .👍👍👍
I like this project it had a lot of information on how to out this together
You are awesome. Sharing this with my husband. God bless.
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!
Very Impressive Job! 5 stars for your smart comments and walkthrough!!
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.
Fabulous craftsmanship!!
You have exhibited some excellent techniques that are only available to peoples by innate capacity and practice. Kudos
Beautiful
thanks for your video
Excellent--you do a great job communicating!
Good job. You just gave me an idea for my entertainment system.
Very nice work you've done! 👍🏻
Thats a very professional work. Thanks for sharing the video.
Well done
OH YEAH... THATS DOPE.. KEEP COOKING!!
good job! First video i have seen from start to finish without skipping through!
Nice job!
wow now all I need is a mitre saw table saw a shop and skill
You do good job bro
Thanks so much! Very inspiring. I'm going to take a 30 foot wall and make a full bookcase of this design. First time --- I'll let you know how it turns out.
I feel so inspire that I am going for a replica
Wasn´t that simple... really fast work as flash does... but it needed a lot of planning and previous experience to make it as sover as it resulted...Thanks for sharing!!!... Greetings from Medellín, Colombia!!!!
Wow! That is a really good looking bookcase! You were right, seems complicated, but you made look super easy! Great job!
Excellent job for your client. More importantly for the rest of us, excellent explanation!
That's awesome it came out great
👍👍👍 amazing clear tutorial.
I love the word simple 😁 amazing to know how to build that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent project thoughtfully executed!
Who in the world would need something that big.
My wife is making me do this now. With opening in middle for our a.c. In the wall. Thanks a lot pal lol. Very nice job
Awesome build
Wonderful
Very nice! I would sill recommend wearing a mask or respirator while sanding - no matter how strong the vacuum's suction is, tiny particles will still float in the air, and over time, damage your lungs.
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.
You could nail a binder clip up behind the miter saw. That way you have a place to hang your cut list so you don't have to worry about it blowing/flying off while you're cutting.
I think its beautiful just like it is
Kick ass execution!!
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..
Thank you
This was a great video. Thank you
Great project. Going into my saved list so I can watch it again when I attempt something like this!!!
Really great job👏
Great work.
Something to be proud of.
Looking great man
excellent work and productivity!
Nice build, thanks for the video
Awesome work sir
Really nice work. Very much like all your attention to the smallest details.
GREAT JOB!!!!!!
Awesome work.
I really like your videos they're informative, helpful, and edited well. I just wanted to comment on a safety concern that I noticed. When your using the table saw you should always use a some type of push stick (yours was on the fence). I had a shop teacher in high school Mr. Lamb (I will never forget) that showed us the proper use of a push stick on the table saw, at the end of the demonstration he held up his right hand that was missing half of his thumb. He asked if anyone had any questions. I'm not criticizing you , just addressing a safety concern. I subscribed today, keep up the great work.
I just moved my upholstery business home and hope to make my garage look just like this!
AWESOME WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nice build thanks for sharing
Beautiful!
Thanks
Great economy build. Nice video, no BS, all business.
Amazing woodworking thank you i enjoy
Great job over all. You’re a PRO.....
Great job, Chris.
Well done.
Well of course you did this quickly, and maximized your shop time. I only wish I could work on fast forward speed too!
Nice job!
Nice work, the cabinet turned out beautiful.
No music! Love this.
Ottimo davvero bravo complimenti.
would've been interesting to see how you broke them down for portability. Very nice project.
Around 18:30 you can get a bit of an idea of the sections broken down as i delivered them into the clients house. they JUST barely fit into my truck! and were a bit big to bring down the stairs, but it was definitely the best way to do it, as opposed to doing it all on site. Thanks for watching!
On the horizontal cleats fastened to the vertical members for shelf supports, I've done those too, but one option that sometimes works as well and looks a bit nicer, is to make 2 thinner vertical cleats (front and back, usually 1" wide), fastened to the vertical member the same way. These support the shelf on the 4 corners, are self-leveling (being the same length), the front ones along with the vertical member make a nice 2 3/4" thickness front appearance, the back one blends into the back corner of the 'box' formed, and the layered surface of the end of the 'box' gives an interesting visual line.
Can you share a photo or sketch of what your describing?
"You can make with a few simple tools" lol. Let me get my table planar warmed up.
Really, really great job. Clean assembly, good site practice and real pride in your work.
looks great
Awesome!
Stunning work and very well illustrated!
AMEN re the removing trim nails. !! Great point .
Dude! You are a master! Great shelves! I wish you could build one for my house. :/
