Thumbs up for that awesome camera trick you did with the mirror!!!
Thanks!
Thumbs down for having those snap hardware pieces in the front of his compartment area!Gotta do some thing from undeneath or along the edge for it to not be a doofy solution.Close but no cigar!😘
@@garyhundsrucker7771 Do you know of hinges that would allow for the door to open as it currently does, while retaining the "hidden" aspect of the design as well as the ability to keep the door securely closed without exposed fasteners (also retaining the "hidden" aspect of the design)....?
@@TanBzk maybe countersink some flat hinges with a magnet up top for holding it closed ? Would look abit cleaner i guess.. new to this sort of work so there probably is alot better ways of doing it.
That editing with the mirror was brilliant :)
Right, but at first he make me freak it out...!!! I got to go backwards a little just to see if it was my imagination...
It spooked me at first.
I didn't even notice until I went to the comments.
Thanks! Didn't realize until in the edit how fun it would be to play with the different actions - glad you thought it was fun. Thanks for watching!
I didn’t even notice the mirror trick til I read the comment. That was great!
Amazing project!
I'm building a soft close mantle for my electric fireplace project and tripped across your video.
I'm adding your floating shelves (with hidden storage) to my project list for my (well-lit and perfect for plants) guest restroom.
Thank you for sharing.
Johnny, you have to tell what face lotion you use. Looking younger by the day my friend!
He's gorgeous so whatever he's doing it's definitely working for him. Also, that über cool haircut sure doesn't hurt either…☺️
We've collectively agreed that we just can't reveal the secret to the group yet. Maybe in the future, but not sure the world is ready for it!
@@workshop_edits I'm betting on great genes to explain most of the positive results. 😝 Is the big secret good hydration? 😉
@@pixelised being young helps.
@@andrewdavies1312 That too.😀
AWESOME JOB! Nothing like functional shelves! Keep up the good work.
Nice project! I think it would look really clean with mitered edges so it looks like one piece of wood like a faux beam. You could use push to open hinges so you wouldn’t need handles.
Shelves came out clean 👌🏽. Have you looked into french cleats? Another mounting option that is usually a bit easier than trying to hold a larger piece with one hand and drilling in with the other while trying to keep it all level 😅
French cleats are great! I just wanted these flush to the wall and the method I went with kept it easy and clean if you don't have a table saw to make cleats easily. Although I suppose you could still make it flush with cleats.
I would HIGHLY suggest goign ahead and finding the 2nd stud.. so many homes are not as "standard" as you might think.. my walls can tell you this
Those shelves are great. It's been a while since i was thinking what to do with the shelves in my bathroom. You just give me a great idea! Love your videos my friend! good job!
Great for a single weekend build - good luck!
YES for the mirror editing!!!
This is probably the least expensive and yet durable diy floating shelves tutorial I have seen yet! Thanks for the video! 3:19
Exactly what I need
Hi, nice build a I also liked the camera trick with mirror.
As I sm short, I would build the top shelf wit the door opening to the top.
Looks good. I would have mounted the top shelf with the door hinged at the top. Easier to see in it.
That's a great idea - a few others suggested it and I've already gone back and flipped it - so much better!
Simple and tasteful! Original!
Thanks! I think miter'd corners or box-joints or dovetails with some hardwoods could be a good upgrade if you want to take them a step further.
Nice simple project that's cool
Clever idea making hidden storage on a hanging shelf! And Kudos on the mirror editing!
Thanks!
This project came out looking pretty good. Always thought floating shelves were pretty neat, and I'm not a fan of putting cabinetry over toilets and sinks, so I think this set of shelves is a really good idea. Oh, btw, the word you wanted was "hinges" not necessarily "hardware".
Nicely done! Just what our bathroom is in need of, thanks for posting................
Good luck on the build!
It really threw me off when your reflection didn't match lol. Anyway, great work!
Clever trick with the spacer. Installed shelves last week and didn't even think about that, I used a level and ruler each time lol
Definitely helps!
question: Why hinge the doors from the bottom instead of the top? Doesn’t that make it hard to see what’s in the top two cubes? Nice camera work at the end...thx
Finally found a concise video of what I'm trying to do, but, what exactly are the measurements of your cuts? I only saw three boards ripped but didn't see the sides ripped.
Fun video tricks with the mirror
Awesome mirror trick! Shelves came out amazing and a very simple way to have the storage added. Great job!
Thanks!
Wow perfect..
I love these.
Excellent build! Thinking about making a mantle and adding hidden storage to it as well!
Digging the mirror edits. 👍👍
Very ingenious approach.
creative idea
I would have full height side pieces, instead of seeing the ends of the top and bottom planks!
That's dope. I'm gonna build some for my bathroom too.
The mirror version of you doing different things tripped me out for a second haha
Beautiful work liked it a lot man love the stain finish a lot more here lately
Nice job. Well done. Very motivational
Nice job on the mirror effect and the shelves are nice also
The mirror editing was awesome lol
Thanks!
Love the idea. Can you flip it to where the flap that opens the other way from the top VS. opening it from the bottom?
I think so, it should only be a matter of attaching the hinges to the top as opposed to the bottom of the shelf 👍🏿
haha i thought i was seeing things for a sec...nice mirror trick!
Definitely a cool project, and great touch with the dowels. Do you think the top shelf would be more accessible if you were to mount it upside down so the door flipped up instead of down?
Someone else mentioned that - I'm literally going home and flipping it as suggested - it's a great move and I'm surprised after a few months of usage we never thought of it - thanks for the tip!
Good job
I love this an I will be doing it for my bedroom but it will be a little difficult see that I have no power tools but am making that shelf happen
Omg!Today I was just wondering where to store our bathroom thing's because we'll have an open vanity and taking down the old ugly mirror that's also a cabinet. This will work!
great video
well done!
Cool mirror trick!
Nice shelves! I"d like to know what hinges you used, not on materials list.
Any advice for RV cabinet hinges or struts? They open upwards.
The spring struts I bought on Amazon gave way. The next bigger gas struts I bought, do not work! I would love to get some Blum Rotary hinges but they are very pricey. The rotary hinges however, are the most effective.
Where did you find the hinge?
Johnny, seems you have a new haircut 😀
Very well done project, I like it.
Ummm.... Ummm.... I've been away for a while. Have I missed something 😂😂😂🤣
Sweet shelves too btw!
Very nice, thanks for the vid! 4:41
This is amazing!! I wish I had the tools and skills to make them
I did not noticed that mirror edit awesome job
Smart
I have tried to make 2 shelves, but the hinges don't seem to line up the front cover in the closed position, what am i doing wrong, when i close the front door it is off 1/2 an inch and leaves a over hang?
Nicely done Zach! 👍🏻👊🏻
Thanks!
Great idea! Definitely I will try to do it. Brilliant idea with fixing it to the wall. I was thinking about similar project but I wanted to avoid building frame:)
Nice floating shelves Thanks for sharing the video with us.👍😎JP
Thanks!
Your very welcome Friend!😎
Whatever you do, don't light that candle! 🔥👨🏻🚒
This is cool I’ll be adding magnetic locks !!
Where can I find the hinges? I did not see a link.
Loved the editing
You should flip the top shelf so it opens up. That way you could actually get to what's in it lol. At least that's what I would do. Very cool idea though.
Good idea!
That's a much better idea - Im actually going to do that to them tonight!
Yay teamwork!
Haha mirror edit was nice
Nice build, man
hey if u dont mind can u send me the link to the cabinet hardware please and thank you.
Nice gag with the mirror. I bet some people didn't even notice that. :D Cheers! Chris.
Thanks - glad you liked it!
Great job, Zach! Love your T-shirt =D
Thanks!
Whoa. This was like watching a 10 year challenge. Johnny, so young and fresh. Haha
Hah!
awesome
I thought that was you from like 10 years ago. I had to go in the description to read what was going on. Great project
Hah, thanks!
With the weight of the shelves and all the stuff a person pull put in and on them, I’d probably use bigger/stronger fasteners just for piece of mind.
At 2:33, What kind of dust collection do you have?
Exelente...!!!!
Where is the link for the flexible drill piece?
Shelves look great. Suggest in the future you wear some form of eye protection.
That editing at the end totally freaked me out!!
Also do you have a link for the hinges used?

Could someone point me to the timestamp of the squat? I didn't see any squatting.
How do you not get squeeze out when you put in the dowels? I always get some, and then it messes up the finish, because the glue makes the wood more oil resistantant
He doesn't put glue on the dowel itself and doesn't over fill the hole. One thing that you could do is come back with a damp rag and wipe up the excess before it dries. After cure time, sand 80, 120 and then 180ish, this should eliminate any wood that might have absorbed some of that glue. Check out "Understanding Wood Finishing" by Bob Flexner. Get the newer one.
@@Maximilian5268 Excellent answer - thanks for chiming in!
@@Maximilian5268 Thank you!
I have been wanting to build a night stand have any idea and maybe a video of you building a nightstand with multiple uses such as a place for you phone maybe water a clock would be a great video
What kind of hinges those are
So, can we borrow ur tools? I only have screwdrivers. 😂😂 1:52
Does his mum know he is using power tools !!!
Man I feel old :)
Can you put a link in for the drill attachment you used? Thx! Great video!
Yea - definitely worth the $8 spend! amzn.to/2GrkFdk
Sawing off the dowels then sanding would be the natural option?
Where did you get the hinges from? I really want to make some of these but I always struggle to find good hardware for projects. I didn’t see a link to them, unless I’m just stupid and missed it.
They have them at home depot, and Lowe's I'm sure.
They're called "90-Degree Surface Mount Hidden Spring Cabinet Hinge" - sold in packs of $2 and super awesome. My only wish is that they sold them in "soft close"
Look grate. What brand brackets are they? Where you get it from?
Good job!
Thanks!
where Are the hinge link?
Haha...i like the "mirror" trick
Just a small question - why didn't you use mitre joints because the edge-on joints smacks of ....well, you know, whatever. Just a thought.
Cool design!
After dealing with the hardware installation would you change your order of operations on the build? These hinges are well designed and you can install them in the open position.
I actually built a second set of these last week for our master bathroom - the simplest solution is getting a right angle drill bit attachment, but since I don't have one, I actually predrilled all of the holes before doing the assembly, that made it easy to hand screw in the hardware once assembled. Cheers
Wow. Great video! So much information. I had to quickly subscribe.
1 question, where did you buy the hardware? I didn’t notice a link. Thanks!
🔥
Can you do a swing? I want one in my room and on the porch. 5:35

What is the height of your ceiling? 1:55
Anyone know the name of the music track at the end of the video?
