This looks like a 1-piece solution for something that 2 pieces would do much more efficiently and cheaply. Laminating 1/4 inch cleat strips onto 1/4 inch plywood would do the exact same job. I do like the channels on the back if you needed to run wires behind the cleat wall though.

@psychoboyaw Год назад

How plumb and flat do our studs need to be for these things? One could theoretically make these panels out of their own quarter inch plywood, but I would be afraid they would be wavy once they got screwed to the studs. Do these have the ability to twist, bend, or warp? Or does the 1/2” thick sections of the cleats keep them fairly rigid?

@christianperi Год назад

Chris - Post these videos on Facebook too and you can eventually monetize them on there as well! Great work

Most definitely a good idea Facebook following is not nearly enough to monetize. Yeah I think you need to have 10,000 followers or so. I may be wrong but I believe that’s what I heard. I recently eclipse 19,000 on Instagram and those have been paying out a little bit but not much.

@mikecoughlin4128 5 месяцев назад

@scottmorris4914 Год назад

Interesting idea. so the thickness of the cleat is only 1/4”?

@psychoboyaw Год назад

I thought the same thing, “dang that’s not a very deep cleat, how strong can it be?“ But thinking about it, if you glue three-quarter plywood to the backer panel to make your cleat you’re still relying on the glue between the pieces. That’s really not any different than relying on the glue inside the plywood. The internal plywood and glue may even be stronger. Then, once you run screws into the backer, studs, those cleats are probably up there for life.

@Max-kn9yi Год назад

@forestbirdoriginals4917 8 месяцев назад

I love all of you involved and appreciate your work With that said… the whole point of a French cleat is that it’s a low waste, easy, customizable DIY solution. If you take out the DIY, I don’t see the point. If I’m buying a solution and not making it from scratch, I’d just buy aluminum z-clips for cheap. So, I guess I don’t see the market value personally.

@@AGlimpseInside First of all its not a criticism about this product. But I was taken back by the cost, I was envisioning to fill the entire wal above my 20ft workbench about 36” high it would require about 30 panels or $2970! You know best about your workflow and capabilities of your shop. From my limited perspective it seems waist-full to me to remove that much material in material and machine time. Perhaps a combination of pre cut French cleats with the pre drilled holes that can be glued and screwed agains the wal or plywood. Just a thought.

Whereas this is $99 for less than 12sf... What am I missing here? Throw stones if you must... I'm currently reconfiguring my 2-car garage (my wood shop) into french cleats wall-to-wall. I just finished my back wall...18' x 8' (but only cleated 12' because of tankless water heater in the back corner) using 3 sheets of 3/4" ply for the panels, and 2 sheets of 3/4" ply for the cleats at a total cost of about $200 (and would even be about $40 cheaper if I went with 1/2"). it would cost me over $800 using these...and thats just for the smaller back wall.

@b3arwithm3 Год назад

Besides being much thinner, is there any other advantage compared to whatever we used to see? I might have missed the point of this system

@AGlimpseInside Год назад

The main difference is that with typical Fred’s cleats I would really never install them over drywall finding the studs every 16 inches. I would always put a backer board up first and then put the French cleat on that backer board. With this system you don’t need to do that. You have pre-drilled holes every 4 inches to allow you to find studs wherever they are , and also one other main reason is purely aesthetic as well. These panels would group together in a large setting look really great and sometimes walking into a maker space that is just decked out with something that looks awesome really does enhance the creativity.

At the time, you were actually making projects but it appears you're no longer interested in that, which is a shame. Admittedly, not really a fan of your "new journey" of cranking out products to sell to other woodworkers, largely because I'm not interested in them but I do applaud you making a living for your family and think it's fantastic that you can. However, I'm not here to "support" you or other makers. It's a value proposition - I'm here to learn, discover new techniques, be somewhat entertained and in return I'll subscribe and even purchase something from you if I think there's value in it. I'm not going to buy something just to "support" makers or because April Wilkerson is involved and has CNC machines to fund (unsubscribed from her channel long ago). Granted, this is just my perspective but these panels look like a solution in search of a problem and I'm not interested in a boutique French cleat system - especially at that ridiculous price point. I apologize for the rant but the attitude of "support us, just because", touches a nerve. If all you're going to do is continue to make CNC'd products to sell to other woodworkers, I'm afraid I'm out. There's just no value in that for me.

@@wesir427 Baltic birch is sold in 5'x5'. These panels are 20"x20". This means 9 panels per sheet or $300 in sales. My local supplier is $85 each right now in bulk 5+ sheets. Let's be generous and say it's only 1 hour machining and set up at $100. Factor in the headaches of setting up POS, marketing, packing/shipping, customer relations and he's probably barely turning a profit if at all. It's a an interesting idea that solves problem that didn't exist using expensive materials and processes.... but he's not taking in the cash like you think. He be far better off licensing to a mass producer, but they'd just steal his idea and cheapen it to the point of unusability. Anyone who has experience running a business and handling cash flow knows a 2x or 3x profit on materials is more than normal. Youre failing to calculate labor involved and profit necessary to sustain the business.

@@srmofoable fair enough, to me french cleats are a much more affordable option to metal slat wall and the cost for 2 22" squares from them brings it up to being the same cost if not more expensive per sqft. If you're only doing a small space it's probably a good option but if you're looking to do an entire shop/garage wall most people aren't going to be able to justify that cost.

Actually, you only did one the wrong way. Not half bad.

@Max-kn9yi Год назад

They're ridiculously expensive.

Too shallow cleat for deep shelves, but enough for hanging tools. Also, having cleat connecton on top of cleat connection is a waste of space and rather pointless.

@Codeyellow Год назад

Lol!!! For the woodworker that doesn’t actually do any woodworking. Who buys this? If you’re buying French cleats or plywood tool holders as a woodworker, you’re clearly doing it wrong.

@AGlimpseInside Год назад

Well, I’m glad to know these products appeal to a bigger audience than woodworkers workers

I sure hope so

@woodturner1954 Год назад

2 each 20 by 20 panels $100. I think I can do better.

@AGlimpseInside Год назад

Thanks for checking it out man

@AGlimpseInside Год назад

Also. Would you rather the cost be lower if we were to outsource the manufacturing overseas or are you OK with keeping it made in the USA?

@btd2516 Год назад

On the linked website it says 2 panels with holes and 1 panel without holes, still too high for 3 20 X 20 pieces of ply.

@davidroman1654 Год назад

@@AGlimpseInside I will keep it made in the USA, but by French Cleats will be hand made by me and installed by me. Much more cost effective.

@saltwaterrook4638 Год назад

That is the most absurd bs pricing I've seen in a long time. $100 for two 20x20 panels... 🤣 You'd have to be a complete tool to buy into that nonsense.

@Codeyellow Год назад

Right? “Woodworking” RU-vidrs these days are just professional grifters to rubes who can’t be bothered to actually make anything.

@philshock3805 Год назад

@@Codeyellow Not sure I'd label them as grifters but some of them sure are phony. April Wilkerson is touted as some master craftsman when she's anything but. She's tenacious, no doubt but her real skill is giggling to grow a YT channel ... that, and talking companies into giving her expensive equipment. "I wanted to learn how to weld, so I reached out to Lincoln ... and look at all my great welding equipment - he-he"!

Curious to know your opinion about Woodpeckers tools as well. And have you ever used them?

@saltwaterrook4638 Год назад

@@AGlimpseInside Not sure how it's relevant to this particular conversation but yes I've bought and sold more than a few of their stuff and kept even less. They started strong, built a decent brand then went off the deep end increasing prices while losing quality. I learned a long time ago brand loyalty is how companies screw you in the long run. More often than not, I can find a better product than WP at the same price or a little more which is fine because it's better.
