The only video on RU-vid that explains clearly and uses regular tools. Also you didn't make me feel like you need 20 years in carpentry to manage this project. You deserve an award, seriously! 👏😘

@simsdiy 3 года назад

Thank you so much! So happy I could help 🥰xx

@rdavid7965 3 года назад

That truly is quite an incredible accomplishment to make your own shutters like that. I didn't know it was even possible, I thought they had to be done in a factory.

If you have the expertise of making window shutters then you should do a video and let us all see the results

@dannydee9919 24 дня назад

@johnkearns4790 it ain't an easy process. The recording and editing is an animal within itself let alone trying to describe the process. I actually thought of doing a diy but I don't have the patience and my end product would be taken down by youtube due to the number of "f" bombs I would be dropping. Hats of to this young lady .

Beautiful job! Instead of wooden dowels for the louvers I used 3/16 complete rivets. I put the nail side in the louvers and the larger end into the frame. Glue the small end. And leave the smaller end free to glide open/closed.

@forestfire234 3 года назад

Wow, this is ingenious. Using cladding for the louvres was the solution I've been looking for forever, thank you!

Fantastic video, very clear instructions. Just a tip for you re painting, a good sand of the bare wood, then a coat of premium undercoat/primer first before your 2 topcoats, will make your future projects even more professional looking. Great work, thanks for the informative video.

@ArgeeP 6 месяцев назад

I am FINALLY ready to do this and am SOOOOOO grateful I saw your video when I did and saved it. I'm really excited to construct these ESPECIALLY after getting estimates from professional installers! I don't know about anywhere else outside of the U S., but the prices are LUDICROUS!

@deenwilliams5173 3 года назад

I have never been more impressed by any other RU-vid video. In my country, South Africa, this cost about 500 USD per sq metre. R8000.00. I am most definitely going to attempt it. Just a bit concerned about the mechanics of it all. Well done. You'll get another 1000 views from me as I watch it over and over.

I think someone making these without a workshop with a host of big expensive machine tools. These are fantastic. Most people even are quite handy wouldn't even attempt them. I'd love to see what you could do if you did have some fancy tools. Operational ones of these cost a fortune and the fact you just knocked them up for under £50 without big fancy tools is very impressive.

@@simsdiy I'm definitely going to give it a bash. I am a woodworker but not this kind of thing. I've just moved into an old house with Victorian panelling around the windows.

I applaud her for an outstanding work. She has excellent measuring skills. I would be off if it wasn't for my jig. She drew around the dowel and then drilled the holes in the middle of both lines. In the United States, these shutters could cost around $300.00, $400.00 per window.
