I'd love to make a shelf like this, but I don't have a motorcycle. Nice photos in the shop and out on the road!
Possibly my favorite comment of all time.
@@MikeFarrington And you still didn't "like"/"thumbs up" it?
@@smattt Not sure where you got your info, but I did give it a thumbs up.
My bad then. Thought viewers could always see if the creator liked a comment cos if the red-heart icon showing up when liked. Guess that's not always true?
@@smattt lol, you policed him right? He commented under it saying that he loved it. It's good enough brother. You don't have to jump on him, it's all love.
This is like meditation for me - the calming shots from your motorcycle trip combined with your voiceover and editing style are appreciated. Oh, great floating shelf as well.
Thank you very much.
@@MikeFarrington Hey Mike! quick tip. It's a lot more handy if you position your piece sideways when doing scribers, in such a way that you can actually see what you're doing with your planer. Great video!
There is no such thing as bad lumber. Only inadequate plans. Great job.
I like that. Good one. Thank you.
One of the greatest woodworking quotes I have seen ever! Thank you Sir! Yesterday I was amazed at how water always finds a way around an obstacle, so too with wood if you give it time and thought
The shelf turned out beautiful! I'm amazed at how you were able to use those warped boards to make something so straight and nice. Looks like you had a fantastic bike trip......gorgeous scenery, thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much.
MIke, lovely work as always. Great to see you in Fine Woodworking, as well!
Thank you very much.
It's great to see this; for years I have been using warped wood to make straight constructions in various ways, forcing it into shape with clamps, screws or weights. This is something new to me though, as I never thought tape would be strong enough. So you taught me something useful in a field I thought was my own, well done sir!
Thank you. That is great to hear.
I like it when you state the obvious (like putting the knot to the top) because for beginners its not obvious until it's too late! So... Sending you a great big thanks! 💖🌞🌵😷
I think those might be my favorite tips cause anyone can use them.
How can anyone dislike your vids? The foresight to angle your drill when pre-drilling those holes ... brilliant. Love the (mostly) self-documenting landscape shots as well.
Thank you. Everyone has their own opinion.
I just finished a floating shelf project of my own for our family room - it is always reassuring to see some of the techniques and decisions I made validated by a pro like yourself! I do like your cleat design much more than the bracket I built, so I'll probably switch up my plans next time around.
Thank you.
Happy birthday, Mike! Lovely shelf. I'm sure that your wife will appreciate the sartorial elegance of beer steins and bowling pins. And, lovely shelf, by the way!
Thank you very much.
New Yank…”The Boardroom” 🙌🏻
Ha!
Amazing as usual. Beautiful joints especially considering the stock. Also, great pics from the ride. Gorgeous country. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
Great work and good work incorporating the Young Frankenstein & Goldmember references!
Ha! Thank you.
Awesome! Another video from Mike, an excellent way to start the weekend. 😁
Enjoy!
I hope you enjoyed you're time in the hills! SD is a beautiful place to live.
Thank you. It may be one of my favorite place. The thought of building a home up there has crossed my mind more than once.
Crooked wood made straight, then made crooked again to match the wall and turns out looking straight. Good job.
Thank you.
Whatever one's creed or faith, or lack thereof, an annual retreat is good for the soul and brings you closer to the divine. It's not about getting 'away', it's about getting closer. I always love watching you work and I enjoyed seeing your route as well. Very cool.
Well said. Thank you.
That really cool
Thank you.
Wonderfully done! Great craftsmanship!
Thank you.
Simple, elegant shelf, which looks beautiful. The perfect joint on the long mitres is no mean achievement!
Thank you.
Mighty fine job as usual! I love how you take your time with projects, and do them correctly!!
Thank you.
Nicely done Mike, especially with that warped lumber.... Enjoyed seeing the scenery from your trip as well! Best...
Glad you enjoyed it
Now I have even more respect for you knowing you ride a motorcycle! What a beautiful part of the country to explore on a ride. As usual a clean and tidy build and install! I wouldn't expect anything less! Happy birthday!
Thank you very much. I've been totally in love with motorcycles for 25 years now. It is a very neat area for sure.
Since I am doing a large floating shelf/mantle for a relative this video came in handy. I plan on the same beveled joints all around, and have been playing with how to attach to the wall. Dowels and a backer board into the studs, and some other types of floating shelf brackets. The genius of using a French cleat somehow escaped me, even though I've used that approach before for picture frames, including a wall of frames of various sizes in our family room. Perfect timing of this video, Mike. Can't believe I hadn't thought of that for a floating shelf. Thank you!!! BTW, beautiful shelf!
Thank you very much.
The shelf turned out great! And beautiful footage from your road trip! My favorite Beastie Boys tune is Sabotage! The video is awesome!
Thank you. Thats a great tune as well.
Mike, as always a great presentation and and a great example of your woodworking skills!
Thank you.
Happy birthday, Mike! You're super talented!
Thank you.
"Abby Normal"! I do believe that was the name.... Classic! New level of respect for you for dropping that line!

@@williammoore4101 lol! I know what I'm watching tonight!
Haha! Such a great movie.
You did very well sir. Thanks for sharing your tips, tricks and knowledge.
My pleasure
I definitely want to get into doing floating shelves as I get better at the basics. This one is something to strive for...
Thank you. They really add something nice to a room.
@@MikeFarrington The possibilities seem endless with floating shelves, including different install methods. I have some black poplar slabs drying (so far it's been 9 months - not quite there yet) and one of them is a bit narrow. I will be ripping it down the middle and turning it into floating shelves.
@@RobDucharme Agreed. Sounds like it will make a nice shelf.
I used the folding glue trick with blue tape for clamping to make a musical instrument called a rain stick. It was six sided, made from 1/4” red oak. Like your boards, my oak was really non-flat. This method made a flawless join and really made the rainstick look store bought.
Thats great to hear. It really is a neat trick.
Wow!!! Beautiful work….and nature shots!
Thank you so much 😀
Very nice. Beautiful scenery.
Thank you.
Excellent trade craft and video. Need to place on shelf a picture of “The Dude” from the movie “The Big Lebowski” 🙃
Thank you. That would be a nice addition to this shelf for sure.
Really nice, Mike. Good pro tips and a seemingly straightforward hobbyist project.
Glad you enjoyed it
I laughed at the "tight like a tiger" comment way too much 😂
Ha! Thank you.
without a doubt the best woodworker on the Tube. Thanks for another great project and song recommendation
Thank you very much.
The majesty of blue tape? who is this guy?
I'm me.
Beautiful work Mike!
Thank you very much!
I believe Arbor Day is the day you set aside to change your table saw arbor bearings
Thats probably a good idea Scott.
I like the gold pin & the beat up USBC pin in the beginning. Once I get my shelves done, I've got one wall dedicated to my collection of pins, awards & bowling related pictures. BTW, good instruction, thanks
Thank you. That was the 4 pin from my first 299 game.
@@MikeFarrington after I commented, I thought it was from a 299 but thinking a stone 10 lol
Very Nice work.. Loved the road trip shots.. some beautiful country.
Thank you.
Love the video and narration. Quality workmanship. 👌
Thank you.
Well done Master Farrington, you had the force with you to straighten the wood....
Ha! Thank you.
Happy birthday Mike! Love the videos and you crack me up man!
Thanks 👍
Mike no Project is too small I love watching all yours and your entertaining comentary and humor along the way brightens my day in and out of my shop Keep making videos ans Sawdust .
Thank you Jonathan.
Wow this was a great floating shelf video. Thanks for the techniques on the little details that made it a finer piece of work.
And way to use those HF clamps.
👍🏾👍🏾
Glad you enjoyed it!
Superb! And what a calming and fun video. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
As always, Mike, very well organized video, great narrative, excellent shots, expert craftsmanship, and nice project. Always great to hear the tunes suggestion, and the sidebar shots. I really like the idea of setting the bevel angle slightly more than 45 so help close up the joint edge. Worth the price of admission right there!
Wow, thanks!
Fantastic..scribing is a must on these!
Definitely!
It looks as if you just dragged a volume of wood into the corner. Gives it a contemporary-modern style.
I like seeing the monster jointer machine in the background holding the heavy frame boxes to the big bench.
Thank you. I bought that jointer with the idea that I would restore it. I got it working, and I don't like it. It has a smooth grind on the table which creates more friction than I can to push against. My current jointer has planed tables, they are a joy to work with. So eventually I will sell the project.
Good idea with the power feed!
Thank you. Its a helpful tool.
Great build, extremely shallow cleat angle, glad you reinforced with screws
Thank you. Yeah, thats normally about half what I do.
Good job on the shelf. Always like your videos.
Thank you.
Hi Mike, great project and perfectly done. And thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures from South Dakota
Nice! Always a pleasure to watch. Thanks
Thank you.
Beautiful work Mike!! And happy belated birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 it sure looks like you enjoyed the trip and the scenery is stunning 🤩
Thanks so much!
Probably the best 15 minutes of my life 👍
Wow, thank you.
AWESOME JOB MIKE!!!
Thanks!!
Wow. The fact that you have great technique, the best dad jokes on the internet, and have responded to almost, if not, every comment under this video... subscribed.
Thank you. Great to have you onboard. I do my best to respond to all comments.
Looks great! South Dakota is beautiful with so much to see and do.
Thank you. I agree.
Excellent work as always. I always seem to pick up some tidbit from each of your videos.
Thanks Paul.
Exceptionally well don Mike! Very nice shelf indeed.
Thank you.
Good work, Mike.
Thank you.
I appreciate any reference to Young Frankenstein.
Great movie.
You Sir are a Master Craftsmen!
Thank you.
Blue tape! Genius! I never knew there is such a thing as a power feeder…awesome. I just bought an 8” jointer hoping to get good 45’s on long runs, but that power feeder seems to work great.
Thank you. Power feeders are the best.
Lovely work as always
Thank you! Cheers!
The blue tape on the compass scriber....Genius!!!
Thank you. Thats a good tip for sure.
You telling yourself to shut up after the celebration of draining the tape ball from downtown, absolutely classic
Great work mate!
Ha! Thank you.
Mike, Best floating shelf vid on the tube !! And done correct "thumbs up"
Thank you.
Mike another woodworking video masterpiece !
Thank you.
Great Project. I enjoyed the shots around the country.
Thank you.
Lovely as always. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice gaps on those bevels! Those are always tricky!
Thank you.
LOOKS GREAT!!
Thank you.
Another awesome Mike Farrington video. As always your music selections are on point and some cool Dad shirts...and I learned a thing or two along the way. Thanks!
Thank you very much.
Good example of a finish project with less than stellar lumber.
Thank you.
Great job Mike!!!!
Thank you.
Great video and the humor is a good addition. The pix were a great addition too. I’ve yet to get out to the Dakota’s so you’re inspiring me to get that planned. Thanks!
You should!
Oh, like the LACK from IKEA. Nice job Mike. And Beastie Boys never gets old.
Thank you.
Happy Belated Birthday Mike!
Thank you Nate.
this shelf looks sick
Thank you.
I had my doubts when I saw that lumber, but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the finished product. I quite enjoy a well made floating shelf
Thank you.
Thanks Mike for another great video. Nice to see French cleats don’t have to be 45 degrees and still work.
Thank you. No they certainly don't need to be 45, but as I mentioned in the video, this angle was a little shallow, due to the broken bandsaw handle.
excellent narration once again! nice shelf too!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice job and very jealous of the cycle ride!!
Thank you. Its a very nice ride up there.
Well done project and video!
Thank you! Cheers!
Really great, especially the treatment of the warped lumber, the scribing, etc. P.S. Went to the Black Hills and Badlands last month. Great trip.
Thank you. Next time I'm up there I'll make the trip out to the badlands. Looks like a neat place.
Nice fixed (floating) shelf Mike! 😁👍🏻
Thanks.
Looking good Mike 👍
Thanks 👍
Great and entertaining video. I learned a few tricks and had a few laughs. Thanks for sharing your expertise with us.
Glad you enjoyed it
A nice clean design for important memorabilia, Mike.
Thanks Phil.
Again great Mike! Very nice
Thank you.
Nicely done
Thank you.
Looks great! Also, my wife and I go to Deadwood every other year for our anniversary! Best place to ride motorcycles!
Thank you. Its such a great motorcycle place.
10/10. The only negative I can think of is if a burglar broke in they might think it has a hidden drop down compartment and tear the shelf off the wall. Yes it is a bit of a stretch but I have a mind that never shuts off.
Thank you.
Nice work - 9/10. Thanks for the video and all the tips / lessons. Especially good to learn you CAN make a silk purse out of a sow's ear! Happy birthday. Cheers, David.
Thanks for watching!
Great work and demonstration. Will try out using your method. Cheers Atin
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful work.
Thank you for the video.
Thank you! Cheers!
