- This is the third part of the living room fireplace remodel. In this video, I construct a mantle out of birch wood, pairing together boards to make wider planks. I show you the entire build process up to the point of being ready for stain. Enjoy!

Bro thank you!! Not only for the video and explanation, but also showing your mess ups. That is huge!
Beautiful work and loving how you go about your work letting nothing slip by............. Goegeous
Finally there's a part 3
Awesome work part 1,2, and 3!
Dealt with that mixup gluing like a pro. Jumped right in to fix it and you saved the day!
Good stuff Ben! Your videos are awesome.
I loved your vids. there always awesome!
Great video (the whole remodel actually). Tip for avoiding cupped boards when glueing up (other than clamping it flat with other boards) is to alternate the clamps - 1 above, 1 below - that way they work against each other and it will be less likely to cup.
I can't believe you were nervous about doing this when you have this level of skill. Love the soft close feature.
It's a lovely fireplace. 😍, nice flame, heat, great quality. It seemed to go up easily ( I didn't put it up). The touch screen is a nice feature as well.
These videos are so interesting!!
That’s a really nice jacket. I guess it’s one of the perks of working on the show.
Talented Man.
Nice! I like the cat shelves too.
Watching some of your older videos. Love the Fantasmic! hoodie. I miss the show. The only consolation I have is I watched it on the last night before Disneyland was supposed to be closed for 3 weeks back 9 months ago.
Lol im binge watching these series of yours. And this one is the FIRST time actually you speak IN the camera.
Nice job bro.
Doing this at my mums place. Thank you.
Dude, some push sticks would be a good thing to have and use.
I live your videos
I would watch those 13 hours
Wifey must be so happy!!!
I need to do this for my TV sound bar. Can you post up a link to the hinges you used?
I love how you play with the cat throughout the process because that is literally what all people do to there cat lmao toss it around pick it up and carry it lmfaoii
Somebody get this kid a workbench/assembly table already!
I can’t wait to do this to my fireplace! By the way, you look so young! Where did you learn to do all your woodworking skills???
Your videos are awesome. What is your backing soundtrack as I like it, good thinking music!
Hi, could you explain the bow part. I just don't know the chiming worked to flatten it. Thanks again. Great video
good stuff, I would like to one of this, do you have any measurements of it
There have been so many times where i've realized i totally messed something up after a glue up. I totally felt your pain and said "oh no" when you noticed it. lol
That’s an awesome little table saw! What table saw exactly is that? Love that it’s portable
Floating cat shelves. Now that's something I never thought I needed until now. 🤷
😂🤣😂🤣😂
F$%% and sh$% are the most useful tools of any carpenter 🤠👍
Me looking for videos and finding this one. "Why do I feel like I went to high school with this guy...?" Facebook searches. "Oh because I did. Neat."
I would like to see the Outside a 360* of your house!!
You need to get a card scraper for the squeezed out glue.
Great work. Do you have a materials list?
7:29 at this moment Ben knew; he fu**ed up
Tucker in !
👌
Is Ryobi one of your sponsors? Great looking fireplace.
Hey Ben, can you please continue on your pinball machine?
Hopefully you can post earlier cause your vids are awesome
Brooooooooo which bit did you use for router to create the door grabs? I’m working on this now
Love the hidden console idea. Do you have to play with it open so the bluetooth controllers can work fully well? Say PS4.
is there enough room for the TV?
I subscribed because you made a mistake and kept it in the final cut.
Nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes and hopefully others can learn from mine. That’s why I include them.
Do you find the finger grips for the door worked well or could you have gone without?
They work great. I recommend having them or having something
Hi Ben, great work on this mantel. I love it. Question: do you make these for other people? Do you build and sell? 😀
Thanks! Unfortunately at this time I do not sell physical products
@@BenTardif Thanks for the response. I figured that, but I at least had to ask. ☺️
I’ll try my luck at my own DYI mantel!! 😱😁
Did you use 1/2 boards or 3/4? Great job on the build
Following
Ben you do great work! But why sir do you not lift the board and finish the cut on your miter saw? Instead of flipping it over. Said with care and not with spite or an attitude LOL!
Wonder how much someone would charge to do this? Love it but I do t have the skill set.
How did you like using the birch for the mantle? I'm between birch and white oak for a mantle rn
I made one of my first pieces of furniture out of birch and just stuck with it through this mantle project. It takes the stain well and is durable. It all just depends on what you want your final product to look like.
I kept on replaying the part where you spoke in front of the camera. Your eyes and lips are 😍😍😍 lol
Can you make me one !! Lol
Actually that top piece looked really nice before you cut it down. Not that the final product wasnt nice!
I only have 4 clamps in my shop I gotta wait for my dad to bring some home after a little while after a work job and when his boss buys clamps my dad just takes them after a while because his boss is rude and kinda does the same thing in a way so just gotta wait for more or buy some but he never wants to go anywhere to get anything so well I’m just gonna wait keep up the work
Couldn't have done it without Inspector Gus
I built a similar mantle in my man cave but after seeing yours I'm not sure if I want to curse myself out or cry....seriously, I thought I did a good job and now I want to jump off a cliff....
where did you get that elephant...

We would live to buy one from you. How much would you charge to do this?
You’ll never have enough clamps
Two ideas:
1. You need to make a workstation so you’re not always on the floor lol
2. It’s time to start trusting your circular saw or invest in a track saw. :)
Can you make me a mantel?
Dude what's up with Your fireplace hearth, It just cuts off no flow badge job need to fix
Old f'arts rule ? Lew

I believe they ( ol'timers ) call Joe Biden, "Jess" i.e. Jester family friend !
Go to woodprix if you'd like to know how to make it easy. Good solution for every woodworker.
I still don’t see why he didn’t just buy a wider board of course they are at any big box store, instead of glue them together.
Sometimes you just can't find them that wide. I am making a mantel that will measure 17 inches deep and you just can't find wood that are that wide . The mantel will be just over 8 feet long, so I couldn't find it in that size.
Dude, tilt up the front of the piece your cutting. No need to flip it.
