That came out great, Sadie!
Yay! Thanks Mike! I’m stoked on how it came out… just waiting on finish until I get my floors installed. 🍊
With the amount of tools involve , I will never get to do this . But it’s a great hack and the console looks awesome 🤩
Thanks! You can buy wood that is already milled and glue your own panels with minimal tools to accomplish a similar look. 🍊
The first half of the th-cam.com/users/postUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.
You are a savior, I mounted my Tv stand with only screws and unfortunately my stand fell few days ago and widen holes that I’ve made with screws 🙃🙃
I’ve been trying to figure out a way to put back the floating stand. Wasn’t keen to recreate holes in the wall for it to fall again and I came across your video. God is good 😮!
Running to my home supplies store, I found a board left by previous occupants, just need to buy a saw!
Good luck with your project! 🍊
at the end of the day, nothing beat real wood. looks great.
Thank you so much! I love this piece and can’t wait to seal it up. 🍊
Very inspiring … I can use a lot of your ideas for the media console I’ve been pondering. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you! You’re welcome! 🍊
Now that’s a superwoman right there. That console looks amazing!
Thank you! 🍊
I died a little when you glued the corner section of the stand.
This is not DIY. This is DIM (Do it Myself). You are a semi Professional with an entire woodworking shop. DIY Projects should only need a Skill saw and jig saw. Maybe a miter saw. Non the less, looks great, I'm jealous.
Thanks! And yeah with the barn wood it isn’t DIY. But I do see the build as a DIY with the Ikea hack portion and making your own custom drawer fronts… maybe plywood, purchasing premilled wood etc. I really just hope it inspires people to pick up some tools and try. Have an awesome day! 🍊
Stunning!!!! Absolute genius to buy one Besta drawer front, and use it as a template 👏👏
Thanks Deb! It worked like a charm! 🍊
Awesome project!!! Love the old barn wood👍👍👍👍
Thanks Tim! The barn wood has so much character... can’t wait to figure out what finish I’m going to use to bring it to life! 🍊
chair woodworking plan rocking .
Wow 😍 amazed by the design of this awesome floating console !! Bravo
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
This is BEYOND awesome!!!
Thank you so much! I still love it too. 🍊
WOW! Lots of work but worth it. Fantastic.
Thanks! Working with reclaimed wood can be challenging or add extra time but the results are usually worth it. 🍊
Once again great work,I build the floating night stands and my wife loves them.thank you for perfect plans.
Awesome! Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Absolutely beautiful.... I'm going to steal this idea from you! :-) Now, if I can just find a "friend" who happens to have some beautiful old oak barn wood to give me. That's the part I always fall short on with my projects. Go figure...
Thank you so much! Good luck on your project! 🙌🍊
VERY nicely done. Learned lots of things here.
Awesome! Thank you! 🍊
Very COOL installation without this rocket scientist jazz measurements! Well DONE!!
Thank you! 🍊
Wow what a fantastic project
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Awesome work! The barn wood completely changes the look of the cookie cutter ikea pieces 👍
Thanks! I agree. And together they make the project not so overwhelming. 🙌🍊
Stunningly unique ikea hack ❤
you're very creative and talented 👏
Cool, non-standard solution. Will be my favorite solution
Thank you! 🙌🍊
Love this build. Subbed! Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks! And thanks! 🙌🍊
Beautiful
Thank you! 🍊
Looks awesome.
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Looks great! Any project that means you get to buy a new tool is a good one. lol Congrats on the new planer.
Oscar laying on the couch watching you assemble it "Mom is at it again" lol
Thanks! I am so excited about the planer... still not here yet (backordered), but hopefully soon!
And yeah Oscar is definitely a character! 🍊
Looks great! 😊👍
Thanks!!! 🍊
Love it 😍
Thank you! Me too! 😆🍊
Love this!!
Thank you! 🍊
Amazing work!
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Great hack! Love it.
Thank you! 🍊
It’s beautiful
Thank you! So happy you like it. 🍊
Tremendo trabajo, woow
Thank you! 🍊
Nice job. BTW you’re gonna love that bandsaw. I just got one and it’s really good.
Thanks! And hooray, I am hoping to start a project on it next week! 🍊
Nicely done! 😍
Thank you so much! I love it and all the character in the wood! 🍊
Awesome work!
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Customised IKEA furniture 👍
Yup! Thanks! 🍊
I think that turned out pretty neat! I'm learning so much from you!!
I do think it's questionable if you really needed that one piece that's against the corner. Your entire console now went from being centered to off-centered. Not sure if that was the intention.
Awesome! Thank you! And yes off centered was the intention. I have more plans for the space! 🍊
Beautiful 😍
Thank you! 🍊
Great Job! Barn wood can be tricky due to camber.
Thanks! Yes it can, but most of the time it is worth it in the end! 🍊
Looks good, Sadie!
Thanks Billy! I love how it has transformed the space. 🍊
I just bought, and built this same unit. The metal cleats don't line up to the studs, and the cleat placement isn't standard width (compared to the wall studs.) How did you get around this?
Amazing, thalia beautiful! Your very talented, its gourgus ♥️
Thank you! 🍊
Nice looking good, great job keep it up and share us more of your creativity 😁. Greets from Netherlands
Howdy! Thank you so much! Lots more coming soon! 🍊
Amazing
Thank you very much! 🍊
The best thing I ever got
Awesome! 🙌🍊
Amazing!
Thank you! 🙌🍊
very nice :)
Thank you! 🙌🍊
wonderfully nice😃
Thank you! 🍊
Very nice result. Just wondering, how did you hide the cables for the tv?
Thanks! My husband had previous run an outlet higher up on the wall. It’s behind the Tv. 🍊
Amazing Hack
Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Kindly help us with the measurement of cleats you have used for the 3 door bench..
We have the same bench..
Great now I did a table saw - planer clamps etc. … not a affordable hack - but looks 👍🏼
Yeah, not with the wood I used. Bit it you get pre milled wood like anything at Home Depot you can skip the milling and go straight the glueing them up! 🍊
Great work !!!! What is height from the bottom?
Thanks! It is 17 1/2” from the floor to bottom of cabinet. 🍊
I love the floors of the room where you are opening the ikea package!!! What are they made of?
Thanks! White painted concrete. 🍊
@@TheAwesomeOrange I looks great!!!
could you be more specific which besta you used? There are so many variations and I couldn’t find the one that had the single drawer!
AZ proud
🌵
That was fantastic!! You have a new subscriber:-)
Yay! Thank you so much! 🙌🍊
Love the result!! And love seeing more ladies working with wood so professionally! Go girls 💪💪
P.s. I'm now also working on a wooden project, upcycling an old painted table by removing the old paint and will add wax to it soon😃
Thank you so much! Happy building! 🙌🍊
@@TheAwesomeOrange you are welcome!😃 And thanks!
Where can I buy my wife one of those shirts (wood work her)? She loves working in the shop with me and loves to brag about her growing skills to her friends. That shirt fits her attitude perfectly!
I sell them on my website. Inventory is really low currently so if her size isn't available message or email me and I can put you on a waitlist for the next round of orders!
What is the size of the TV?
I believe it is a 65”. 🍊
da ja nicht jeder eine Werkstatt hat gehts es auch mit Holzfurnier. zuschneiden und aufkleben.
ok but what about that coffee table?
Haha… thanks. I didn’t make that one I bought it. But I do love it. 🍊
Appreciate the video but this is not DIY 😂 those look like professional tools
But amazing work regardless
Thank you! The drawer fronts aren’t DIY you are right, but can be done similarly with DIY tools. Thanks for watching! 🍊
