Where did you get the black foam from?
In this video I just stole it from an old gun case. I get it off eBay now though. I'll put a link in the description.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo thanks did you include the link?

Cool AF!!!!
If I put my joints that close to the edge, then I cant with the bracket wood on the top of the shelf closed. If I seat the joint back far enough to make room for the bracket wood on the top shelf, then the joints only open 60°. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
I love how your shop looks like mine, like somebody actually works in there. Not perfectly manicured and spotless. Just a regular guy making nice pieces. Good looking unit.
Thanks man. I make sure to do a quick clean before filming too.
Excellent build, well thought out and executed. ☆☆☆☆☆
Awesome job, that look and the great reveal at the end... candy bars. Lol. Super cute.
Thank you. It's King of Random's design.
Agreed
Love the "What's that noise" look @ 8:52-53!
Thanks. I think it's a sci-fi door airlock sound effect
Cute with the candy stash. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you
LOL...........Love the end. all the candies. Hilarious. Thanks for the great video.
Hey thanks for watching
AWESOMENESS. Quick and easy way to offer some Candy to an intruder. Love it.
Kill em with kindness 😉
Chocolate makes everything better. Add some peanut butter and ... WOW!
You made my day. Instead of buying one I'm going to build my own next time. Thanks for the good advice. 👍
No problem. I recently just uploaded a slightly easier but somewhat less fancy one too.
Thanks for the video. I started watching it about 2-3 weeks ago, and today I’m putting on the first coat of stain.
Ordered the plans and have been non stop to make sure I’m seeing it correctly.
Wish I could post pics.
That's awesome. Send pictures to lastleafstudio1@gmail.com I would love to see it.
Badass, going to make this soon. Thanks brother.
Thanks. Be sure to check out TKOR's video in my description. It's a more step-by-step tutorial and might be very helpful.
Clever. Very clever. I like that. Well done you 😊😊
Thank you.
That was nice I Love the way u marked where your latch went and how u lined up the hinges very nice man
Thank you. These things are pretty cool but kinda a pain to make
Epic. Yup I would be stashing my snacks from the kids 😆 👍 Great work🙏
Yeah it turned out pretty good. I am working on a coat rack version right now.
Nice work. And Funny humor
Thank you
Awesome build.. this gives me a couple good ideas to work with in building my reloading bench. Thought about a couple dropdowns from under the bench or in the shelf I still have to plan and build. Thanks. Semper Fi !!!
Glad to hear it man. There's a link to the pistons in the description that I think will be very helpful for anything you want to drop down slowly. Those were the hardest part for me to find. Good luck. Semper fi
You havent finished your reloading bench yet?! Shame on You! Lol...
Awesome build tutorial
Thanks.There is a way more descriptive one linked in the description.
Thank you so much for this video! I loved it so much I then make it but put a laser engraving on top just because why not. I make it in my high school shop class to enter in my local FFA AG mechanics action. It looked really good and I just need to do some finishing touches on it. Hope it sells well and again thank you so much for making this video.❤
You are very welcome.
Nice going to try and make one good job thanks
Awesome glad you liked it. If you are looking for more details there are plans listed in the description as well as a video that is a little more of a how to.
Man I tried making one of these from a different video were you fit the crown molding to the pine board and I had such a hard time. This process looks much better cutting the crown and fitting the pine to the crown. Might give it another go. Thanks for the video
No problem. There's a link in the description to an even better video if you want to check that out.
This is the best video I've seen on the internet building a concelled mantle. Absolutely beautiful finish. I saw the Indian head and did a double take. I was Second Infantry Army. Great job, man. Loved it.
Thanks man. I was 3rd Battalion 6th marines. I make custom military signs if you want one hit me up man.
th-cam.com/video/QxaF2InfhTE/w-d-xo.html
@@LastLeafStudioVideo you also steal custom shelf builds from deceased youtubers. Same moulding and everything
@@Stinky1am I linked his video in the description I'm not trying to make it look like it's my design.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo buddy the video is almost exactly his with less talking. Youve even taken the end clip where hes got all the candy stashed, its an exact copy.
@@Stinky1am I am simply showing people mine. I'm not claiming it's my idea or design.
you killed it with the struts and hinges! they kick my ass every time.
Yeah I know what you mean. I bet I could sell one of these a week but I don't feel like messing with the struts and hinges
@@LastLeafStudioVideo an additional info on the gas struts? Size? Where to purchase?
Nice! Actually built one very similar years ago for my father in law. Was only big enough for his pistol and some ammo. I’m sure yours holds something with a little more BANG!😉
Yeah .... candy bars.
Very smart and talented.
Thank you. I can't take credit for the design though.
You did a very nice job! I would really like to try to make this
It's not too difficult. I would say the hardest part is getting the magnetic lock just right.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo, really? The King of Random made it as easy as possible for you.
That's exactly what I wanted to build using same material you used like the exact crown molding but I couldn't figure out how to proceed. I happened to come across your video and now I have a good idea. I need to build myself a tactical AR-15 concealment shelf for my assault rifle. My idea is RFID card reader. No one would know it's a concealment shelf. If I successfully make my first one I'll make more to sell and if demand grows I'll build variety of other styles. Thanks for your video. I Invisioned that I was gonna build one just like this video. 👍.
That's awesome. I have found the demand is quite high for these. I linked a more instructional video in the description by The King of Random. If you need more information I also have a link to some basic plans. Let me know how it turns out. I think the RFID lock is the way to go.
If you sell, I’ll need to buy one as well
Nice!
Thank you very much
what size is the flat plate you used for the locking system. i cant get the mounting of the stock hardware for the meg lock came with. so frustrating! i like your idea of the plate and i want to try it.
I'm not sure. I don't even remember what it was part of. I just found it in one of my drawers in the shop.
Thanks for the build. Was able to knock one out pretty easy. The problem I'm having is finding replacement magnets strong enough to open the latches. Getting the replacement key for a child lock is pretty expensive. Have you found magnets that will work that you can buy in bulk? Thanks again.
I have been getting them at my local hardware store. I get a pack of 6 for about 3 bucks. I have to stack 3 to get sufficient power. Also the lock is pole sensitive so make sure you try both sides of the magnet. I found some on Amazon but I can't recommend them as I have not tried them.
The other thing you can do is use a forstner bit where the lock attaches so the thickness of the wood doesnt affect it as much. The thicker the top board the stronger the magnet will need to be.
Candy bars that's a good touch😂
Can't be too careful on TH-cam
I just love all of these videos that claim, super secret. Yet, the videos are put on Social Media for the whole world to see.
I know. I wonder how many shelves look like this that don't open.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo I'm sure there are quite a few. I wonder how many people now just assume shelves, tables, walls, etc. have hidden features, lol.
I do admit that this is pretty cool. I'm not trying to take that away at all. Great job with the project 👍🏻
@@Shane-bx8ws thanks. Next might be a "super secret night stand"
@@LastLeafStudioVideo love it!
Way cool!
Thank you, thank you very much
What kind of hinges do you use I understand it’s supposed to be a full overlay 110 degree 35mm, but when I go to Home Depot, there’s a bunch of different ones. Do you have a link by any chance?
I just added one. Sorry I thought I had one in there. Hopefully this helps
Awesome
Thanks
In the video it looks like the magnet lock changes after the foam is installed. Is the lock in the description the same lock you ended up using in the finished product?
Same Lock I just painted it black
Where did you find crown molding with the angle 3/4 the stores here the angle is only about 1/4 even had the same pattern
I found it all at the Home Depot. I will see if I can find it on their website and link it in the description.
Nice work! Just curious, do you mention the cut angles for the crown in your plans? Also, do you have a video on cutting crown? You make it look easy! Well done!!
They are just 45°. There's a more informative video linked in the description if you want to check that out before you buy the plans.
Great end with the candy!! Hide it from the wife!!! My one question is why did you put the side arms on the top instead of on the bottom where it would allow the foam to be tighter. The gas springs could then be mounted in reverse. Thanks for the video!
Thank you. I'm not really sure what you mean. This isn't my design I just copied it.
The wooden gussets are to help support the shelf and whatever goes on it. If they were on the bottom the shelf would have no support and would be relying solely on the two bolts and glue seam at 4:34 to hold it to the wall.
lol, awesome!
I was gonna ask if you'd taken inspiration from Grant Thompson's video, then I checked the description, nice work :)
You got any tips for someone who'd wanna try this without all the power saws?
I would do it without the compound miter cuts. Check out my video for a quicker easier stealth shelf. It would be much easier with hand tools.
th-cam.com/video/6o5K4R7SUS4/w-d-xo.html
Awesome build!!! What's the height inside? Enough to fit an AR with a light mounted on the side?
I don't remember. I believe it was 3 or 3 ½ inches. It was made for an AR but youtube doesn't like when you show that stuff. 🙄
What kind of gas struts are you using to control lowering of the shelf?
I believe I have a link in the description. If not let me know
Tin Cup !!! Great taste !!!
If I'm being honest, I just buy it for the cup
@LastLeafStudioVideo I have several of those shot tins for my bar. Tin cup I think for the money is a good smooth blended Whiskey.
@@georgetarbutton2141 I agree
Awesome looking shelf. Do you have plans or a cut list for it?
No I don't. Maybe I will try to put one together tomorrow.
Yes he does. He got it from TKOR (the king of random) TH-cam channel. That video tells you exactly what you need and dimensions. Plus where to buy the hardware.
This TH-camr stole that design and made his own video with less info.
I'm watching this on Halloween night and all I can think about is raiding my little girls stash
🍬🍫🍭🤫😋
Very nice . 👌 do u make thefor sale if so how much.
I do. Email me at Lastleafstudio1@gmail.com
Can you use any paint to paint the lock black?
As long as it's good for plastic
Nice build. Where can i find those locks?
Amazon.com I think there's a link in the description.
Great work. Do you sale or have a website to purchase?
I don't do them anymore. But I do a bunch of other stuff. Check out my Instagram @lastleafstudio
Is the just common board wood you’re using besides the ornamental trim?
Yes this is just pine stained with a black walnut stain.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo thanks! I’m still studying my wood types and couldn’t tell. Thanks for your videos!!
I love the candy! Lol
Yeah you have to be careful with guns on the tube
@@LastLeafStudioVideo yes absolutely you have to be careful anywhere with you firearms. I was in a campground once and a gentleman came over to talk with me and seemed nice enough but during our conversation he asked “do you have any guns in your camper?” I thought what the crap and really didn’t know what to say, so I just said if I am in my camper there is a gun in it, if I am in my truck there is a gun in it, where ever I am at there is a gun. Implying I was carrying which I was and also to let him know if I was gone to town there wasn’t any guns in there for him to steal!! He them replied I have 300 guns in my camper. I said you have 300 guns in you camper? He said yes.. lol I told him it wasn’t wise to go around telling that. I later found out he was harmless but like to tell fibs and stories. He went on to tell me that he worked for Barack Obama at the White House, had a million dollars cash in his mattress, that his son at five years old lifted his truck so he could change the tire ( like the Superman movie). So yep the morel of the story is “ be careful with you firearms” don’t let people know what you have.
@@TheHarleyhillbilly oh man. He could probably use a few of these shelves in his camper.
What is the brand and type of magnetic lock you used?
Sorry I thought I replied to this. They are Safety 1st
it's very nice. god bless your hands. I am writing to you from Turkey. Can you share the length and width dimensions please?
No problem this one was 48 inches long and 12 inches wide
@@LastLeafStudioVideo Can you tell me the size of each board? You used 12 pieces of wood in total. Can you write the size of each board? The product is very nice. I will not build it in my own house in Turkey. thank you
I know I wanted something difficult, but I know. I watched your video 10 times. and I really like the product you made.
Just curious, how much do you think these would sale for?
I have been getting $350 for 4ft and $175 for 2ft
What kinda of shocks did you use to get that slow drop?
I'm pretty sure there's a link in the description.
Does it actually make that sound when it opens? If so I want those struts.
Unfortunately.... No
Damn the bad luck! 🤣
Hey bud…great video can u reach out? I got a project I could use ur help with. Old gun cab from doc holiday era. Az
Oh that sounds cool. Hit me up on Instagram if you have it. @lastleafstudio
Has anyone been able to find the 13/16 in X 4 1/2 in X 8 ft Crown Molding? Home Depot lists it, but never has it.
Contacted House of FARA as well. They don’t sell directly.
I found it at home depot
@@LastLeafStudioVideo the Homedepot website keeps saying it’s not in stock. (For the last 4-5 months)
I did contact the House of Fara today and they said to go to the pro desk to have it ordered. Gonna give it a try.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo I did build one already but I had to substitute a 4” vs 4 1/2” as your plans call for and I had to make some adjustments to make it work. It came out ok, but it has less internal space, height wise.
@@ottopilot7205 I'm glad it turned out ok.
Oh course you would stash your poggy bait inside! Lol
🤫
TKOR gang FTW!
He's got some great stuff.
What 1 by board is used on the top and bottom?
Top was a 1x12 and bottom 1x10 ripped to 8 1/2" if I remember correctly.
@@LastLeafStudioVideo alright thanks
@@retroemoji972 no problem. I linked a more descriptive video in the description if you have more questions.
What length gas shock was used?
7.9 closed 11.4 extended. There's a link in the description under slow open gas spring.
ok now i know where you hide your candy lol
🤫
Did you plane the top of the shelf at all?
Nope just some sanding to get everything smooth.
Can you tell me the size of each board? You used 12 pieces of wood in total. Can you write the size of each board? The product is very nice. I will not build it in my own house in Turkey. thank you
I know I wanted something difficult, but I know. I watched your video 10 times. and I really like the product you made.
I have plans available on Etsy
Parts list? How wide is Crown Molding?
Plans available in description
What are the angles of the cuts?
They are just 45°. Make sure your molding is upside down when you cut it and 45° to fence.
If anyone needs a tutorial this is the exact same build as the king of random from years ago. There’s commentary on that if you need instructions
Yes his video is much more instructional. I believe I linked it in the description.
Well done devil dog.
Thank you. Semper Fi
What pound struts did you use for the shelf?
It's a slow open strut. It doesn't push at all but slows the drop. I believe there's a link in the description.
Thanks, brother. In the process of making one for myself! Im having a hard time finding soft open struts.. i bought 8.8lb/40N standard struts. Should work the same no? They open just as slow, may i ask what overall length, and compressed length the steuts you used was?@LastLeafStudioVideo
@@Jay-gx8dm it might work 🤷.

Where did you get the foam at?

I recently found some better stuff on eBay. 1.5 INCH GUN CASE FOAM | Foam Blank Inserts | Lightweight, Moisture Resistant
What are the specs on the cylinders?
Here ya go amzn.to/3E43j0q
Wow, great build. But i think the light should be to illuminate the " candy " and not be pointing straight out towards the user. Just saying...
Oh so have it mounted on the top instead of the back? Yeah that might be a good idea.
I could not get the gas struts to work without knocking the whole shelf off angle. I had to stick with chain.
The gas struts I used do NOT push. They resist opening if that helps at all 🤷🏻♂️
It’s safe to say you need a new blade on that miter saw with all that chip out
I think it the wood. It's super soft possibly poplar
Why do I watch videos of people doing things that I don't have the skills, time or patience to do myself? Great shelf, though.
That's how you learn man 👊
Dude make the time if you like biulding stuff. Soon you'll be in your 50s and everyone around you is dying
@merluzo8269 I had to go to the hardware store before I built this probably 5 times 😆
@merluzo8269these are pretty basic tools. I saw one earlier where the guy was in a legit cabinet shop, easily $100k in tools to make a dresser.
Truthfully the only difference between u and him is experience... that's the only difference I didn't know how to fiberglass build sub boxes I learned trial and error are the best teachers don't be scared to fail at anything my friend it's how we grow and become better
Did you get this from The King of Random?
Yes I even linked his video in the description
Could if I buy one off you thanks 😊👍👍

Awesome I was with them from 05 - 08

Kids cant find the candy
🤫
I can't stand when pin nails are used. Can't you see it when it's finished? You can't fill it cause stain doesn't work on filler
Yeah I suppose you can see them if you're looking but most people don't seem to notice or care. Next time I will be more careful of my use of brad nails ☹️.
@Last Leaf Studio Oh please don't tell me you took my opinion personal. Really? It's just an opinion I have not an insult
Rustic . Looks great. A few brad nails are fine to me
@@rutgis77 no I was just having fun with the comments. I really don't like the look of them either. I actually prefer to not use any type of fasteners other than glue. Brads are my go to though when I am doing assembly line work. I built 5 of these that day.
REESES CONCEALEMENT!! Brilliant!😅
I have 3 kids so it's completely necessary.
His wife won’t let him have chocolate LOL

The bast way to keep a secret I hear, is to make a TH-cam video about it
I trust 152,000 people to keep my candy stash a secret.
You have a cut sheet
Not yet. I plan on making some plans soon
You had me till you got to the foam. Good job tho.
Yeah foam was a last minute steal out of a gun case. I order better stuff now.
It’s not a secret anymore. But nice video.😊

Do you take orders?😂😂😅
I used to, but I don't really enjoy making them anymore 😕

can you prepare everything and send it to me to assemble ? i pay you
