I wanted to add built-in shelves to my home office but with wood being as expensive as it is, I did not want to pay for plywood. After evaluating the famous "Billy" Bookcases at Ikea, I had an idea to transform them into custom built-ins! I'm glad to say the idea worked, and I spent less than $300 on the whole project! Details on this project below.đŸ‘‡đŸŒ For more projects, check out fieldtreasuredesigns.com/blog/

  • @trucuriousity
    @trucuriousity Pƙed 3 dny

    Thank you for the video. One request: Don't use acid while wearing shorts and sandals! The chips are meant to provide some anti-slip that's why no clear coat in the kit.

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew Pƙed 3 dny

      Haha! Well it’s too late now! As far as the chips: my issue with the using chips as the final covering and used as anti slip is that they can crack or not adhere perfectly, causing them to hurt your feet or constantly come loose or break off. That’s why I wanted to use the clear coat with sand. The clear coat is also easier to clean and mop.

  • @rickvalcarcel8888
    @rickvalcarcel8888 Pƙed 5 dny

    Your best bet EVERYTIME,is to bring the entire floor with a walk behind grinder easily rented with hepa vac system...fast,and opens the concrete so it grabs a hold...in summer that floor may peel up on your hot tires

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew Pƙed 5 dny

    Great job of video and audio of the project. After seeing the end result with the black painted wall and units, I don’t think there’s enough light even from the sun that would encourage me to go black. Closets are utility and that means useful light.

    I am looking for projects to do prior to me moving into my new build. Since the garage will be brand new, would yall suggest to acid etching and such or just a quick clean then start the application?

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew Pƙed 12 dny

      I think either is fine. You might check with your builder on why finish they left your concrete with then make the call.

  • @makingwaves1239
    @makingwaves1239 Pƙed 16 dny

    Nice end result. I am probably to conservative, because if it was my garage, I would probably have skipped the chips, but hey ... we all have different taste, so neither choice is wrong.

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew Pƙed 23 dny

      Great question. In the Colorado Springs weather it has done very well. The sun is definitely effecting the wood and I think I need to reapply a new varnish or clear coat soon but I haven’t done a thing to it since I posted this video so I’d say pretty good. Again we are pretty dry where I live but the sun is intense since we live at 6,300 ft elevation. Hope that helps!

    Used to use an auto hammer to drive nylon pegs when I built U-Haul trucks. It was actually a good Job to switch to if you were doing a job with a lot of blind hand threading. I wouldn't want to do it forever. After a couple of days covering for a guy I tapped out. My hands and wrists felt numb from the vibration. You definitely want to switch hands after prolonged use.
