Great video. Simple, but very effective way to store timber out of the way. I keep tripping over my timber and have been trying to come up with a good solution in a very small store; this will work! Thanks for posting. Good approach in the video; no lectures or moans, just good advice and solutions.
This was very nice. Easy to follow, great for a property rich cash poor guy like myself as i only have scrap boards lying around lol. Anyway, my wife loves them!
Another great project and very useful for me!! I'm looking for shelf bracket ideas and this is it - same as your drawer slides video!! Thanks for taking the time to make and upload the videos, I really appreciate them. 👌👌
Do not use the miter gauge and the fence together for through cuts as wood can stuck between the blade and the fence which can results a kick back ! Except that , very nice job .
@@PhillWyattProjects you don't have to. use a block of wood clamped at the beginning of the fence , then measure from it and use the miter gauge as you used. once the wood cut , it will have room from the fence and won't bind. take care..
Admittedly will do the job - but lap joints (easiest with a Miter Saw) would be way stronger than butt joints with screws. and would show off your stuff.
I think the screws you are using to secure the bracket to the stud are the weakest link in this equation. They will probably bend or snap over time. Some m8 or m10 x 75-90mm lag bolts (1/4 or 3/8 x 3.0-3.5in USA) would be much better at supporting whatever weight goes on this shelf.
Hi nice video, I’ve liked and subbed., I’d really appreciate your help, I put up a 3m length shelf (2 pieces of 150cm timber), approx 40cm deep, I used 5x large cheap metal shelving brackets, 2 for each timber and 1 in the centre to support both timbers. The brackets were fixed using 40mm screws / wall plugs to a concrete wall (must be breeze blocks as only gray dust was produced and the depth of the wall is only approx 10cm, wall between bedroom and bathroom), the brackets were also fixed to the timbers with screws, I used the shelf to hold quite heavy items (faulty laptops, etc) , and after a week there was a gradual shelf collapse, fortunately no one was injured and nothing was damaged, the failure point was the 2 top screws on the metal shelving brackets, there was blow-out and the screws were pulled out of the wall, now I’m looking at the quickest way of repairing this and adding extra support, do you think if I use proper longer screws (80mm long instead of 40mm) and add 4 more of the same metal shelving brackets (9 instead of 5) and add 3m long 2x4 timber on the wall above the shelf timbers and then screw the shelf timbers to the 2x4 timber, would this work? The only reason I’m tempted to go with more of the same brackets is it will save me time because I can use the existing holes/markings, I can probably patch up the damaged areas and reuse existing locations and I prefer the look of the metal brackets over timber shelf supports Sorry for such a long message, if you prefer I can email you with pictures as well? I’m just stressed out as I don’t have much time because 4 days I’m a full-time carer for elderly mum with dementia and I work long weekend shifts, and I repair laptops as well
Hi, no problem sure you can email me the photos so I can get a proper look and might be able to help you further my email is: phillwyattoutdoors@hotmail.com
Nice job and good video…. A bit of advice if you don’t mind, I’m looking to install a 900mm breakfast bar worktop as a floating desk with these L shaped brackets. How deep would make the brackets, would 450 (half way) suffice do you think if there were plenty of them?
Cheers👍🏻 450mm sounds reasonable to me as long as the top is say at least 20mm thick. I think the brackets should offer adequate support. For spacing I would think about every 600mm or so should do it.

Thank you very much! Glad you found it useful cheers!
I made similar lumber storage. Used scraps of 1x2, and they have held out great.
Yea I was surprised at how much weight this design can take. They have been holding a lot of wood with no signs of movement. They are so useful!
Good shot
Thanks

Cheers your welcome 👍🏻
Thank you sir for this art of work ... well done 👍🏻
Cheers! 👍🏻
Those turned out great. Thanks for sharing

Yea I need to make a cross cut sled I plan on getting round to doing that soon. Could do a video about it.

@@MoranGuyVideos I will try this out next time 👍🏻
First thing I thought!! Yikes!!!
nice and simple
Yes indeed 👍🏻
@@PhillWyattProjects I really appreciated this video, I'll try to do it myself
Admittedly will do the job - but lap joints (easiest with a Miter Saw) would be way stronger than butt joints with screws. and would show off your stuff.
Yea good points. They are still going strong. I'll have to make a pair with lap joints too though.
Do you think this would hold cats jumping on to it ? With a shelf of course 😅
Yes. I've got loads of wood on it at the moment probably 60 kilos worth and it's solid.
😅 thank you I shall try with some palets I have in the shed
Hi, never use the fence as a stop block! Recipe for serious kickback.
Yes I use a block of wood now as a stop block and I've just bought a new mitre gauge with a fence and stop so I'll be using that now.
I think the screws you are using to secure the bracket to the stud are the weakest link in this equation. They will probably bend or snap over time.
Some m8 or m10 x 75-90mm lag bolts (1/4 or 3/8 x 3.0-3.5in USA) would be much better at supporting whatever weight goes on this shelf.
@@CountDabulaTV they have been up for over 2 years now loaded up with a lot of wood and they have been fine. Rock solid.
Thank you, very helpful.
What silver insulation did you use in the roof please?
Thanks 👍🏻 if you Google aluminium bubble wrap there's loads of brands which are all pretty much the same.
Yup, watch for that kickback…
Still need to make a cross cut sled
