Please list tools you use too. Esp bosch laser.

@jeromegarcia5396 11 месяцев назад

Just a tip, when using painters tape don't press so hard, go get clear caulking and put a very light amount on your line, it stops bleeding and it gives an exact edge and you immediately pull the tape while it's wet, you will not get better lines, you'll thank me later.. nice build, I'm working on another piece and I'm jealous of your tools and garage I'm working with chop and table saw only 😩 but I've done it before...

@xpatches13 Год назад

Take note potential Content Creators, Brad here perfectly illustrates the, "it factor" for making a living doing this. From his humble and willingness to point out the mistakes he makes during his projects, to making fun of himself on his poor previous prepwork while painting his son's room, he show's a genuine honest and humble trait that many will connect with. This will draw people to his video's who might not otherwise be interested in wood work. Great channel!

@rich3398 2 года назад

Very nice build. Another option for the pocket holes is to use plugs. You can buy them or get the Kreg pocket hole plug jig. Then you don't have as much Bondo or filler to use. Oh and I have the same flexio sprayer. I've had problems with some paints not spraying well. Did you have to thin it? Also what paint was it?

@bs838 2 года назад

Great build, I might try it but with dadoes (using a router and a track) for the shelves instead of pocket holes, so I don't have to deal with all the hole filling plus it might support more weight.

@Fixthisbuildthat 2 года назад

Yep, I considered it but don't have a jig or track for the dados and assembly of all the shelves at once seemed too daunting by myself

@cayleygubser 2 года назад

Awesome build! If you were to make it without the desk would you have removed the carpet? Doing something similar but with a murphy bed and trying to determine if removing the carpet where the built-ins and bed cabinets are sitting is the way to go.

@smfone1 2 года назад

LOL… Nope. This is how I envisioned the script *actually* was supposed to go: Plan A: no backs on the bookcases. “Well 🤬, the walls aren’t straight!” But I’m too suave to say this wasn’t in the contingency all along. Hmmm… I’ll make it a ‘teaching moment’ yeah, yeah! Plan B (a.k.a., The Teaching Moment): the cases will have backs, painted to match the already painted walls, which will also hide the not-straight walls behind the cases, but not next to the cases. Plan B, subparagraph 2: And, oh, by the way, you need to cut another hole in the *side* if you want power to the desk. (Let’s hope no one notices they have to cut yet another hole in the desk itself if they want the power actually on TOP of the desk!) 🤣 👍🏻

Great job matey looks amazing 👍 Unfortunately for me to build this in the UK because of the price of lumber it would cost over £600 about $800 and that's from a lumber yard, would be more from a DIY store. Hopefully, the process will start to come down soon as I have a few builds to do and I have just added this one to the list.

@ericplautz3622 Год назад

For the bases of the bookshelves, do you secure those to the studs or do you just let the weight of the bookshelves hold them in place? Are the screws that are holding the bookshelves to wall and the weight of them enough to hold the base in place?
