Hey what's up guys, I'm Zach Hendrickson and today we're going to be building a set of
these industrial hardware shelves on the second episode of The Cutting Board.
Okay so full transparency here, the shelves you see behind me are not actually the ones
that I'm going to be building in this video.
The ones that I will be building are actually right here wrapped up very nicely because
I'm actually building a different set for my girlfriend's sister and her husband for
their new house.
Merry Christmas guys!
Okay, before we begin, I ask that you ignore the hairband that I'm wearing.
My hair wasn't cooperating at all that day, so I went all out by wearing my girlfriend's
hairband.
To start out, I measured out the length of the shelves I wanted to cut.
I'm using a piece of 8 foot long white wood, so my plan was to cut 3 shelves to 32 inches
each.
And since I was feeling super lazy that day, I chose to use my circular saw and freehand
the cuts instead of using my miter saw.
Next up, my girlfriend sanded the edges of the boards down using an orbital sander and
60 grit sandpaper, while I rounded out the edges with a hammer.
After that was done, I used my hammer and a screw to bang up the tops and edges of the
board.
These markings are hard to see here, but they become very visible once you stain your boards.
After that, we mixed up paint and water and lightly brushed on some color.
This color is actually left over from a previous project and actually matches the interior
of my girlfriend's sister's home pretty well.
And once the paint was dried, I went ahead and stained each board with Minwax's special
walnut color.
This really helped bring out the bangs in the boards.
And while the boards dried, it was time to assemble the pipes.
They seem to have a mind of their own.
Now I don't have a video of me hanging them, however, I hung my shelves with toggle screws.
You're going to want to use these as the width of the pipes will not line up with the studs
in the wall.
And you'll want to have something anchored properly into your drywall so the shelves
don't fall.
Not bad for only using these five tools.
Thanks so much for watching guys.
If you are new to the channel, I would love it if you would subscribe as I put out videos
every two weeks.
Go ahead and leave a comment in the section also if you like the style of the video.
The stop motion thing was new for me and I'm experimenting with it as I go.
So if you do like it and you want to see it in future videos, just let me know.
My name is Zach Hendrickson and I'll see you guys next time on the cutting board.
