Ephesians 2:10 - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I cannot get enough of the French cleat system. These beautiful videos increase my idea pool and are an essential watch for improving one's own system.
The king of French cleat
😁
The foam brush idea is fantastic!
Still loving all of your french cleat ideas. Keep inspiring. Thanks.
#16 - If you drill a hole in the top and cleat top, you can drop things like screws, and nails, etc, even bent ones so they are out of the way until you sort them or safely discard them.
I’m amazed that with French Cleats you can organize anything that can be safely put on the wall.
I really like the idea of using French cleats to mount a grinder on the wall. Rather than 'just' storing it on the wall, it would be even better if the grinder could be mounted on the wall oriented so it could be used. You could create a whole sharpening station on the wall, taking up very little floor space and within in easy access.
I did this in my garage. Perhaps the cleat wasn't deep enough, but when operating it easily climbs out of the cleat (instantly). I strategically added a threaded insert and use a bolt with a 3D printed knob to securely attach it.
Love these. They get creative and I am already making some. Your grinder one is my favorite as it stores the grinder, the handle, the wrench, even some discs. Still, the outlet cover/ phone charger is great, and the writing pad and pencils is awesome. After all, that's where you get creative...
It makes us feel great to know you are getting inspired. Thanks for letting us know.
Simple for beginners like me and amazing ideas. TYFS.
Brilliant! Thanks for some great ideas
For the bench grinder, it might be a good idea (again, in the interest of safety) to attach a second cleat to catch the one on the wall just below.
I love the French cleat series - lots of great ideas!
Thank you
Another bunch of great ideas. I just need to build a shop to put them in.
Keep 'em coming! I think you're just getting started :) . Very useful and inspiring.
For #17, you could also incorporate a magnetic strip to the top for keys and other metallic objects.
Very true
I appreciate your enthusiasm and creativity. Your French-cleat system is great! I'm looking forward to implementing as much as I can.
Thank you very much. You will love it.
Thank you so very much for ideas. I don't do woodworking(unfortunately) but now have so many ideas to hire someone to organize tools.
I’m familiar with French cleats, but have not used them yet. I recently built a new wall in my shop that would be ideal for installing them. I did a search on TH-cam this morning for additional ideas and came across your videos. I was surprised to find you had put so many really good ideas in each video! Too many TH-camrs spend 15 minutes talking about their projects and 4-5 minutes creating them. Your videos are well made, interesting, and concise. You’ve earned another subscriber. I’m looking forward to watching even more n other topics, as well. Thanks for all the time and effort. By the way, I’ve been woodworking for 55 years, and while I admit to watching a lot of videos, I don’t find too many content providers that I add to my subscription list. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, John
It is an honor to have you here.
Great ideas. For that outlet holder with the newly added phone holder, you should consider taking it a step further and install a wireless charging pad ;)
LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS! EXCELLENT IDEA! THANKS!!!
Genius! I enjoyed your presentations and great ideas. keep up the good work and keep those videos coming.
I just watched 80 tipps and my head is spinning :-D
Great stuff!
To many ideas - - - so many ways - - - you are a genius! You inspire me to start very soon
All three videos have excellent ideas!
You're making some great videos...and your enthusiasm and positivity are refreshing! Keep up the good work!!
Thanks for the video, a lot of good information to be had. One addition to the phone/outlet shelf, make a clear/hinged cover to go over the phone to reduce any sawdust or other damage to the phone.
Love the foam panel idea. Definitely using that. 👍
Glad you like it!
i was trying to come up with a good way to hang my carpenter square. This idea looks great and is super simple. Thanks!
You forgot the earpro and safety glasses on your foam head 😉 mine has the earpro built into the face shield and yellow safety glasses lol. They’re a must for any shop!
All great ideas.Enjoyed watching!
Thanks for all your great ideas!
Just Amazing ideas...great videos!
I take a drink everytime you say “AWSOME”. Like your channel.
“Awesome little holder...” ... DRINK!
I don’t have a shop - but am dying to get started so will use a 1 meter square piece of wall in my studio/ studio in the mean while!
That sounds great. Everybody has to start somewhere.
Some good ideas! I like the grinder idea because it's always in my way lol but I was thinking it might be better to make you're 2× mounting board a little longer so you can clamp it to a table. Enjoy the videos.
Thanks. I thought about that and with this grinder, I should have enough room with a c-clamp, but for others, that might be needed.
Awesome!
Great ideas man - I love the writing surface
Thanks, it is super useful
Thanks!
Thank!!
Another great video, keep up the good work
Love the video. Subscribed.
awesome
More Great Ideas!
Thank you
Looooove all your ideas!! Can you tell me how you made your cleats?
Very Nice Video 👍👍
I have never seen a video that I enjoy so much yet also want to make fun of just as much. Way to go!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm going to add to the label maker holder just below the cartridge holder a place for new batteries. That way I don't have to go looking for them. So many good ideas in this video. Thanks.
That's a great idea too. Good thinking.
For the pencil holder, you can add a small box at the top for the pencil sharpeners. The mannequin head could also be used to hold the filtered mask
Both of those are good ideas, thanks
you could add a cleat to some speakers and run the cables along the very top rail, and potentially even add an aux cord to the charging station/outlet protector, so when you're wanting tunes, they're hung simply on the wall, but not immobile.
you could make a dustpan holder, similar to the air compressor at 4:00, so it's on hand when you need it, and potentially have a different way to hold the brush so you don't need to always nest them (as many dustpan/brushes are designed to interlock)
you could make an extra braced swing arm lamp, hang it on a cleat, extend it to where you need, and just plug into the wall.
picture frames on a french cleat to add that "home" feel. or putting a picture of your favorite car/movie to personalize the workshop. (or a white board)
drill screws into a cleat at the right spacing for a power strip, and maybe even include a protector to it, so you can have more power points when you need them
hot glue a cleat to the handle of your shop vac (not the shop vac itself) so when you're working, you can simply hang the nozzle when you put it down, and you don't need to feel around for the head.
make a frame for a paint pallet, to hold it horizontally, so if you're ever working near the cleats and need a not-floor level to store it on while you actively use it. bonus if you make a lid that seals it properly, but cling wrap is generally fine for that stuff.
making a "basketball trainer". basically, an oversized funnel, the directs stuff into a bin. good to not need to aim specifically at the bin.
making a regular basketball hoop. always fun to shoot a wadded up rag/paper through a hoop, and if you put it over a bin, it's extra points.
a hand sanitizer station, whether it's liquid soap (assuming you don't need to open a door on your way to a sink) or regular alcohol based hand sanitizer, having it hanging up near a door is a good habit to get into.
adding a cleat to your table sled could also be good, to just hang it up when you're not using it.
as to upgrades.
I'd also add a pencil sharpener to the pencil holder, just so you always have one on hand.
a better way to store the circular saw blades than the one you suggested in the last video is making almost a CD case. cut out an x inch hole from a piece of 1/4" plywood, then laminate it with another piece of 1/4" ply with a 1" finger hole located near the front, and add a little pull tab, similar to a manila folder (staggering them to make them readable). make a shelf unit with 5/8" spacing between 1/2" slots, and you've got a safe way to store the blades, as none of the edges are exposed. bonus, you can whack a label on the pull tab/write with sharpie to label the disk slots, rather than trying to identify them by the teeth/pulling them out one at a time
Those are some great ideas. I will keep them in mind for future videos, thanks
Real easy, real simple haha thanks
😀 Sometimes I talk a little to much and realize it during editting 😀
@@SpecificLove7 Don't change I enjoy it
Oh wow, so many great ideas! You should totally add a beard to the foam head!👍
LOL, that is so funny!
#2 Screw on a clip board. Better yet, a clip board case. You would then have a place to drop receipts and other paper items for a project.
I love and hate this video. I love how creative some of these are and i also love how you incorporate other materials other than wood too many other channels seem to frown on that. But i hate hiw creative your stuff is because its luke spoilers lol half the fun for me is coming up and designing stuff like this.
All excellent ideas. My biggest problem is not having a home for tools. This gives so much unused space in my shop a place to store various items.
Thanks Chad, I really hope you can benefit.
The box that has the mason jar on the bottom. If take small corner out the front of that box, then you could use the box to sort the parts from the jar and when you are done, just tip the box up over the jar to put back the parts that you don't need.
hi american. Wonderful work, I have nothing to say. All your ideas are great, except the one in pvc. I don't like PVC, it's too polluting. In Belgium (yes I am Belgian) we make a lot of things to make our lives easier. Thank you for sharing. May God reward you for that. Goodbye
Sirage Eddin what do you use there for water pipes
How far apart did you space your French cleats on the wall. Did you use something like pine 1 X 4s?
I have a video coming out next Thursday on these and more common questions.
Quick Tip, for number 8 the wheel stop.
If you slide a bycicle inner tube over the kleats your using as wheel stops, it act like a non slip grip.
You can get old innterubes for free from most bycicle shops, you can cut the remainer up as grips for screw drivers etc or in to 1/4" or 1/2" strips and have them as powerful elestic bands.
I need to make new storage for my tools now.
Someday I will start making things that are NOT tools to make more tools or storage for the tools I have made, someday. :-)
I liked . follow your channel here in Brazil
This is a great way to use up all those scrap pieces that normall get thrown out.
Is it possible to make a french cleat cat perch? ;-) Thanks for the great tips and step-by-step. Just getting started. Keep 'em comin'.
Oh yes and much more. Unfortunately I do not have an inside cat or that might be a video of its own.
@@SpecificLove7
😁Imagine you had a 🐈, or make it just 4 those who have one-- or two🙂. I like your ideas a lot and, of course, I subscribed👍👍👍
Question: So I just hung my Cleats up. Getting ready to start building some holders. Now do you use the same size hanging cleat on every project, or do you cut some down smaller, for certain builds for Aesthetics? Thanks! 👍 🇨🇦
If the tool/holder is heavy, I would keep the same width for strength and balance. If it is lighter, you might be able to get away with two narrow cleats on each side of the back. Just make sure they are level with the wall cleat and each other.
Great ideas but sure uses up a lot of wall space. I really like that outlet protector/cover. How do you keep the dust from collecting on everything that is hanging on the walls? Even with dust collection at the sanders and saws I still end up with a lot of dust on anything not in a cabinet or drawer.
No matter how much dust collection used, there is still some that gets airborne. So I just use a leaf blower a few times a year to remove the resting dust layer.
I keep an inexpensive leaf blower handy, and use it almost daily to blow everything out of the bay doors.
When you have much amount of expensive power tools, i'm still trying to buy one for starting this hobby.. i hope i can have some of it someday. I just don't know how to reach this dreams.. these days were feels gettin harder for me to make some money....
It has taken me several years to obtain the number of tools that I currently have, so I'm sure one day you can have some of these too.
@@SpecificLove7 @ thankyou for sharing those much of knowledge man, huge thanks for your support, this is so mean to me. You deserve way more subscriber. Best regard from indonesia.
Do you have a video on making a FC wall. IE. material, dimension, spacing. Not used a plywood backer ext?
I do not. FC can be used on most walls with success as long as they are attached directly to the studs with long screws. As for sizing and spacing, that is up to you. Just make the cleats larger for the heavier locations. And I would stick with atleast 3/4 inch thickness for strength.
Also here is a video I made on some things to avoid: th-cam.com/video/duDs7HImuUw/w-d-xo.html
Hi,
Friend
I’m Engineer and I like Your ideas, some are really very Nice so Good
I appreciate Your thinking
Thanks so much
I noticed you had a bottle of isopropyl do you use this for super glue accelerator.
No
In the next vid... "full sized trucks are great, but they are a pain to store. Let me show you this handy french cleat holder to store your truck." jk. Great ideas, my goal is to make a few each week until my shop is organized. Thanks for making these videos!
I was wondering how far you were going to take the truck idea, it definitely had me smiling.
@@SpecificLove7 btw if you are looking for more material, I have a ton of kids sports equipment I am going to incorporate into my French Cleat system. I am not sure how I am going to do it all but it will most likely consist of looking up storage ideas for balls, bats, gloves, etc and then adding a cleat. I just figured you would be the man to make a video for such an idea. Have a great day!
I will definitely keep that in mind, thanks
Put your pencils in with rubber side to prevent broken tips.
Noticed the flag on the wall is hung incorrectly. The the stars are supposed to be on the right when hung vertical. Great video tho.
Hello,
The last third of your shoot went to a solid color. Nothing showing.
That's interesting, you are the first to mention it, thanks for the heads up.
I have been wondering, is your wall concrete?
No, the walls with the French Cleats are OSB
Next video : French cleat work bench
What wood are you using for your cleats on the wall?
3/4" pine boards
@@SpecificLove7 Thank You!
I think you said "awesome" three thousand times.
It's possible 😀
next episode: how to hang your table saw and jointer on your french cleat wall.
LOL, if it were only that easy. 👍
@@SpecificLove7 You sir, have given me another addiction. I have built so many french cleat holder since finding your videos two weeks ago! I love it!
Thank you
"Simple" Counter: 20 😂
I’m starting to think your pantry is French cleat as well. And your socks and undies. Probably have the toilet paper on the system too 😂
My man made a French cleat for a 50¢ paint can opener
No chapters? Y U hate us?
I know right?!
OCD ! OCD ! OCD !
