Happy little shelves!
So true
I appreciate the fact you showed your shortcoming and how you addressed it. Looks good, is good!
I want to thank you again. This saved me so much time and money recommending the timber lock screw.... I didn't even think of using pocket holes. It turned out great and held all 205 lbs of me with no flex. I did run reinforced studs behind before the drywall because I knew I was doing the shelves, but unsure on the way Iwas going to attach..... Keep up the great work.
You are awesome! I'm saying it again! So many tricks tips and different ideas to help me with my projects! Pocket holes- brilliant!
Drill a hole through your sponge the size of your holesaw, wet it put your holesaw through it and use it as a shroud when drilling. Keeps the mess down and keeps your drill bit/holesaw cool 😎
Thanks Frank, I will give that a try. Cheers!
Great idea bro
Thats a bloody good idea mate, cheers from Australia
Another way to do it is take the piece of sponge you drilled out of the big sponge, wet that, and put that inside your hole saw, and it will both keep your hole saw moist and cool, but it will also cushion your cut piece inside so that it doesn't get stuck all the way in the back of the well for easier removal. And it'll keep everything around, especially underneath from getting too wet.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Personally, I tape my dust pan to the tiles just below the hole I'm cutting/drilling, and have a pot of water nearby to dip the bit into occasionally to stop overheating.
Great video, always love the floating shelves look but never knew how. Great tutorial 😃
Again another amazing video. I can't wait to see the end results. Thanks Jeff for the efforts you put in the projects.
Greetings from Holland.
Cheers to Holland! The final reveal comes out on Saturday. Looking forward to hearing from you about the final product"
You explain stuff very well. Not too much information but just enough. Videos are great, thank you.
Would love to watch you install the range hood you have outlined in the background. How to attach it to the tile etc
Thank you for the Timberlok idea. I really didn't want to mess with the metal dowels.
Will you please let me know if I can use this installation for bookshelves,? I love this idea..I want to install shelves on both sides of my fireplace. I love all your videos!! Very clear information about everything. Very helpful to understand easy what you're looking forward to.
That is a great way to hang a floating shelf! Thanks for the idea.
Cheers Carl!
I like the use of the timberlok screws - smart. I did similar with dowels, and I pinned it to the sidewall (put blocking in beforehand). It's not always an option, but I'll add the support if it's there. Nice video.
Very true. I like to block up whenever I can as well. Thanks for the comment.!
I love how efficiently you work! Great video! Keep up the good work :)
Thank you Alain, clean and organized my 2 favorite job sites.
how did you drill the pocket holes to receive the 1/2 inch screw head of the timberlock screws? all the pocket hole jigs i can find are for 3/8 inch
Omg im so happy that I found your chanel!!! Thank youuuuuu ☺️👌💯
I like your videos. I subscribed to your channel. Thank you for sharing your wealth of information and also being very clear and good camera work. 👍👍👍
This channel has the best camera work in the business. Cheers Max!
The porch screws is one excellent idea.
This is amazing and I can’t thank you enough for posting a high-quality video on mounting these kind of shelves.Your work is killer!
Thanks we appreciate it. Cheers!
I can just see someone putting that timberlock through the 2x4 stud into the next room 😂
Very nice work... AS USUAL.
Hi Jeff, great video. I really want to try to do this but I don't have much experience. My main concern was hitting electrical and all sorts of terrible things driving timberlock screws in, but apparently since you had the wall open, you knew that nothing was going to happen. How would you advise if I didn't know how the electrical ran behind the wall? Thanks.
Great videos! Have you considered adding Amazon links to the products and tools you use. I really want to buy the laser tool and support your channel at the same time!
d m it’s up there on Amazon I already checked Loloo
Hi Jeff. If you could have some footage of your finished jobs to show how cool it looks that would be great. I want to show my wife your ideas but she’s interested in how the finished kitchen looks, not the job to get there! Thanks man. Your videos are very informative!
Wow I really like this look. Not sure I’m brave enough to try it though.
Not me...brave enough that is.
Great job 👍 what tool did you use to make the initial pocket holes?
Hi, is there a link for the timber lock screws? Thanks.
Great project!
I love undercab lighting....this shelf is begging for a clean, thin, LED light. It is too difficult to go back and do, but maybe next time run a low voltage cable through the wall before tiling. :)
Great video as always Jeff. I would however add a few suggestions to anyone tackling such a project:
1. Be extra careful to check for wiring (or plumbing) in the wall when using long screws (i.e any fastener longer than typical 1 5/8" drywall screws). Unless the house is newly built or fully up to electrical & plumbing code, which is rare (and has protection plates for all cables & pipes intersecting through every stud), you run the risk of shorting cables or bursting a pipe. On a freshly tiled wall, this could be a very expensive repair. This is a common mishap that occurs when people try to wall mount their tv's and disaster strikes.
2. I wouldn't permanently seal the pocket holes with plastic wood. You might need to move, adjust, remove, or refinish the shelf. I would suggest using removable pocket hole plugs or hole covers, or just leave them exposed if drilled from underside (i.e. hidden well below eye level).
My 2 cents :)
Love this guy!!!
Jeff i learned a lot from your videos, thanks. this is the way that i use to do it: 1 step i use the masking tape and put on the wood and mark the holes then after that i work in the level and put the masking tape on the wall and make the holes on the wall.
2 step : i use screws of that size with bigger gauge, cut off the head of the screw, put the lead plug on the wall then the screws. use the mark thar we make on the wood make the holes and put on the piece of wood on the screws the i put on the wall. and that its. i thing it a little bit simpler and clean and supports a lot of weight.
do you have tips on adding window blinds or rod to a shower window that is all surrounded by tile?
A very nice honest person god bless u
Not sure if you’ll still respond to comments on this thread but wondering if in our kitchen remodel if I wanted to add shelves do I do it before the planned quartz backsplash and get the quartz cut to fit around it or drill into the quartz?
Do you happen to have a link to this product from the big box stores, Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. Looking to pick these up but can't find this on their website.
bought my Diamond bit at princess auto...works great!
Nice, Nathan is the man!
Thanks for sharing! I have never heard of those screws before. Unbelievable strength for such a small diameter. Great video!
Yea they're awesome. I used 4 of them to hold up my patio roof to the posts. Works like a charm but they're expensive. At least $1 a piece.
Your number one fun. 👍😊
Hi Bob what color of grout you used in that subway tile? thanks
What screw or anchor should I use to install a shelf designed to hold over 250 lbs into brick that has sheet rock layered on top of it?
Awesome!
Nice... is it easier to build the shelf before I tile the backsplash ?
Hey I love your videos so keep um coming for us DIYers.....I'm in the process of changing a shower valve in a wall. I soldered the elbows but got incredible bubbles all around. I'm afraid its not done properly. How can I ck this with the water off and even more so, how can I remove the clumps?? I'm confused as I heated awhile to make sure hot enough but this is what I kept getting ....HELP
sound sot me like you didn't clean the copper properly. sand it until it shines even past where you will solder and then use flux. heat from 1 side and then place the solder on the other side. when it starts to melt you know it is hot enough. Don't over heat as well. Have someone on the phone with you opening the water to check. Good luck!
Ive done a couple floating shelves, what do you think about using 3/8" lag bolts and cutting off the head of the lag. Drilling holes in the material and sliding it on the lags with some PL adhesive. Is there disadvantages to doing it that way.
Good idea. Seems like that is just the metal dowel method. However, the dowels seem to be much thicker and sturdier than the 3/8 lag.
When the lag is screwed in, it pulls in the wood very tight to wall. So the thickness doesn't matter as much. But if you do what you said, it wouldn't be as strong and the shelf might possibly sag a bit, with a decent amount of weight. The depth of the wood is a big factor.
Is there more detailed information on the size of the Timberlock screws used and the depth of the drilled pocket holes?
I need you in my city!!
You are very easy to follow and it much appreciated. Can you do a video on subflooring,
I am planning on doing a video on everything. Stay tuned.
Looking great!
Thank you my Lord!
I always love your videos .But if the 1000 pound shear load strength of the screw split the wood how is that small screw going to support the weight ?
no worries, not parking a car on that shelf.
That is the best project yet. Thanks Jeff.
Glad you liked it Larry! Cheers for the comment
Thank you for all your videos. Do you ever have to dip that bit in water to keep it cool as your drilling. Or does that bit not need it.
not when drilling ceramic!
What do you use for drywall to keep this sturdy no tile on wall
I'm thinking of doing exactly this in my home office. If I attach a 5' piece to three studs, do you think it should support something as heavy as a line of books? I noticed you mentioned that you were just putting decorative pieces and not a stack of plates on it. Thanks for the video! Very inspiring!
Hi Bryan, there are other ways to hang shelves that hold a lot of weight. perhaps that would be a better option. Cheers!
Nice job.
Anyone have a link to this to at a Home Depot, Lowes, etc. I can't seem to find these anywhere.
need to find a wood store near you, not a box store.. even then, there's no guarantee they will have 2 1/4, I can find that anywhere around me.. or at best, they have slabs which you have to mill..
How do you think I can use this method for securing floating shelves to a cinderblock wall? Would the predrill hole need to be angled rather than straight on?
don't think it would work with that type of wall
Nice work, Jeff. Can you clarify where the link to the video is for the full kitchen reveal?
Hi Chris, the final reveal is not yet released. I believe it comes out next week.
Thank you very much
Does anybody know where can I find this type of thick lumber?
"anybody willing to tackle this project at home is probably more than capable of finishing their wood."
🤣
You are a weekend worrier's warrior.
How did you get the heads of the timberlok to go under the wood? I did a test run of this with a pocket hole jig and timberlok screws but the head is too large too fully seat where they should be
we have pocket screw holes drilled. You could use a dimpler first if you wanted too.
1:11 I love lag screws. Those look like the next gen.
It never would've occurred to me to drill such a large hole through the tiles. Is it because the mounting screws go in at an angle? Anyway, dang, you make the tricky look easy. And: Brilliant thinking to mount the shelves upside down!
those are gorgeous!!!!!!
Thank you , glad you liked them.
What type of wall is behide the tile the screws went in easily Mine wall is made from reinforce concrete can those screws work?
I'm sorry about the last comment. I don't need the shelf with the brick backing to hold 250 lbs, but I need to know what anchor or screw will hold and not make a good amount of weight fall?
Nice job, I prefer to use the pocket hole plugs then just fill in very minimal.
sure, that will work too!
Where the heck do you find wood this thick? The best I can find is 2x?, so 1.5" thick.....
Wood merchants not your standard stores
O I'm definitely going to make this!! 5:52
What is the length of your timberlok screws? 8inches? 10inches?
Hi, could you please make a video on putting a TV mount on a concrete wall? Thanks
follow m,y t.v. mount video and use a masonry bit and tapcon scows. Cheers!
How bout glass tiles, will it crack them? We have a glass mosaic tile splash
Can't wait to see the finished project. That kitchen's coming together nicely. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Sandi, BTW Max is working feverishly on obtaining some new music and adjusting sound level. Thanks again for the imput.
I love me some Maximum Moskal Multimedia! ; -)
You and me both SandiRose27
i'm about to endeavor on this project myself! my question is this: we're doing much longer shelves and i saw in the comments some people recommending installing the screws through the bottom and not the top for weight. would that be advisable with longer shelves?
Hi Katy, the length of the shelves does not matter. place a screw in every stud if you like. Cheers!
You've mentioned the screws itself can handle the 1000lb load, but i was curious about the wood. Do you happen to know how the shelf is holding up after some use?
I was actually back after a year and everything was just fine thanks!
Nice.
What kind of drill bit is that?
Is the length that the screw is in the shelf slab sufficient to hold such weight? I know the screw is strong but won't the little chunk of shelf it's actually gripping risk snapping or cracking?
that all depends on how much weight you are putting on it. I would not for instance store all my plates on there. But it is great for use like display as seen in the picture.
I like this approach, but I'm worried about hitting a wire or pipe with those long screws. One option would be to widen the tile holes by boring two side-by-side holes that partially overlap so you can feel one side of the stud for anything passing through. Another option is to use shorter screws that only go about 1.25" into the stud. I don't think you'd lose much strength from that as long as the screws are driven in so their heads are tightly seated against the shelf.
plastiwood scrapes real well. Card scraper :)
Honest question and not trying to be a troll but I'm truly wondering if have any worries/concern/opinions on that screw you had right on the end corner? I just bought my first house (woot) and im in the middle of remodeling the whole inside so its fresh and clean when we move in (we have kids 3 and 6) so we want our forever home percent before moving in! I've subscribed and have watched a ton of your videos! You've helped a TON! Thank you for all the videos! GREAT channel.
Where can we get the screws?
Love this vid....but even though 16's is a standard in North America, there are some shoddy builders the put studs where ever they please...like Minto....i have walls in my house...some are as much as 22...needless to say installing floating shelves (especially Ikea ones) are super fun (insert sarcasm).
What screws do you recommend I use on concrete wall?
Tapcon.
Jeff we'd make a great team, I'll make the mistakes and throw fits of anger you can fix them and smile Lol
I was thinking about putting some floating shelves in my swimming pool
Is it necessary to use an impact driver for this project or could you still accomplish it with a power drill?
javaTL you don’t need a imanct
But it’s really nice to have one
What about if we put a backsplash on top of the previous tile. Like there's backsplash, then tile. Then whatever is behind the tile?
This trick is only for when you have renovated and know what is in the wall you attaching to. hanging floating shelves blind is dangerous.
Do you recall the grout color name and brand used for subway tiles?
avalanche mapeii or bright white custom
Home RenoVision DIY - Jeff, I was also curious of the grout color. Please confirm. Thanks! Love your videos!
Hello Jeff, love your content. I am looking to do a similar thing for a fireplace mantel..... but I cannot find that type of pre drilled shelf anywhere. Is the the any chance you could tell me the store and model number of the product. Thanks
I rewatched the video and found them...... thanks again you are great.
@@doubleblack5897 Where did you find them?
@@doubleblack5897 Yes, where? Having a hard time over here.
What kind of countertop is that?
What laser level do you use? BTW, nice project!
the dewalt basic model. sells for $100 bucks.
Hey Jeff, is it possible to replicate this in a bathroom where I could tile/caulk the shelf for toiletries? I have a tiled shower with no shelves or anything. Sucks big time!
sure if you install it opposite the shower head. seal up the shelf with polyurethane first and then silicone the shelf to the tile for extra protection.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY NICE!!! Sorry to bug but one last question - how the heck do I find the studs if there's already tile up? I suppose I can see if stud finders will penetrate that material...
What kind of laser level is that
you use? I dig your videos. You make it seem less daunting with how you explain things!
simple dewalt dual line goes for about 120 bucks at the store.
U do know they make wood plugs 4 your pocket holes yes? Just FYI. Great videos.
Yes but not available in most hardware stores. besides the plastic wood dries super fast.
Great video. Any advice on renovating a 1930's home with plaster walls? Should I remove all plaster/lathes or drywall over it? Thanks! Really enjoy watching your videos! I've learned a lot!
I always prefer to go back to the studs. In a 30's home you might need to replace some of the plumbing that is loaded with corrosion. great time to upgrade.
Thanks for the response. Can't wait to get started and might have more questions for you later on.
Hey while I have your attention, one thing that I think would really benefit you and your channel would be to post Amazon (or elsewhere) affiliate links in your description sections to products you recommend in your videos. They work like this: whenever someone buys a product through your link, you get a small cut. It's a way to get paid for all the product knowledge you give us for free in your videos. Personally, I'd love to learn more about particular products you recommend and where to buy them. Someone who does this well I think is Peter McKinnon (also Canadian). Check the description of his video czcams.com/video/_bwfAPXlFu8/video.html for an example. I know I'd click your links if you had them. Thanks again!
Thanks Stephen Orr, I am looking at options right now. My biggest stumbling block is amazon doesn't sell a lot of the products we use.
Yeah I see how it might be difficult for things like tile/cements/lumber/drywall/building supplies. Would be great for tools I think. I'm getting ready to gear up myself and would love to see a video on your basic preferred tools (like drills, saws, tapes, glues, things you always carry and why etc.) so I can learn from a pro. Some youtubers get sponsored by brands (maybe reach out to Dewalt if you're going to recommend their products for example, as long as you don't let sponsorships sway your opinions! :)) You could get free tools for life from brands of products you recommend in your videos. Good luck!
edit: Look for "affiliate programs" at Home Depot, Lowes, etc. You can then shorten your affiliate links using services like google's goo.gl/
I guess I will have to start my own shopping site. Cheers!
Love this and love all your videos. Quick question: any reason to not be wearing protective glasses?
I don't like them. you can wear them if you prefer.
I live in Ohio and I wish I had Canadian neighbors. Damn lakes.
Velcro also works.
Lol
