[@briant9764]

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thanks, super easy.

[@SoCalSurfer69]

I am doing this tomorrow. 2 base cabinets, a acacia top and shiplap. But I am putting it on small 2” legs to be moved around.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Very nice! Send me some pictures in IG. I'd love to see it..

Thank you!

If I’m covering a tile covered island. Should I put up like 1/2” plywood first? Or just glue the shiplap to the tiles? Don’t want to bust the tiles off.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Just glue it to the tile. I used the brad nails to hold it in place until the glue dried, and I probably didn't even need that.

[@nathanielstrehle1608]

How did you cut out the vertical baseboards around the front lip of the cabinets? Router?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I don't really understand the question.

[@sambaldwin1249]

Any tips for doing the corner vertical trim boards?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

The easiest way is to butt them up by making one board a little narrower so the reveal is equal, or you can miter the corners.

[@CharmleysChopShop]

I see you don't have anything supporting the overhang for the top. Is this an issue? I'll be doubling up some mdf and using epoxy but I was thinking of installing some supports

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

The island was preexisting. I thing the countertop is self supporting and brackets or corbels would be purely decorative.

[@thehusband12]

I was worried the whole time that you were going to have nails pop through the inside. Lol.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Short Pin Nails and toe-nailed into the trim boards.

[@KA-lm6sp]

@@DadItYourselfDIY I'm about to take on this project and am using you video for instruction, TY! But what length nails were you able to use for the hold and not have it punch through?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I used the shortest pin nails and only in the corners where there was structure. Honestly you can probably get away with the adhesive only...

[@fab5891]

Quick question on the rail cut, did you to a 45 degree angle?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Yes, I mitered the outside corners of the stiles (vertical) and baseboard on the tablesaw. The rails (horizontal) are butted to the stiles

[@maheshkumarreddyyv4172]

Nice work! Probably a lame question, did you rent those tools(the circular saw, table for the saw, nail gun etc) or you bought all of them outright? I wanted to try something like this for my house and wanted to know guidance if it makes sense to buy those tools or rent them.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I own all my tools. The Ryobi brand is very affordable.

@@DadItYourselfDIY thanks for the quick reply!

You're welcome!

I support the "no-painting" policy. Love to build, hate to paint

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

That seems to be the consensus..

[@awwwyourehurt2822]

I support your no painting policy. I love to paint and build

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I'll paint when it's required, but not very often.

[@tarabriancox]

What did you use for the very top strip?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I just ripped a piece down to fit the space.

[@mikehammer2408]

Did you use a router to make the groove for the end piece and if so what's bit did you use? Thanks

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Nope. It's called Nickel Gap Ship Lap. On the rack at Home Depot and Lowes. homedepot.sjv.io/15VPXx

[@mikehammer2408]

@@DadItYourselfDIY I'm sorry yes I know what ship lap it is I'm talking about the piece that you cut out of the vertical end piece to fit flush w cabinet The end cap for the cabinet corner where the door is Did u use a router on that?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Nope. Butt Joint.

[@nancymmalaym6663]

What size rails did you use? It looks like Home Depot has 5 1/4 and 7 1/4.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I used the 5" boards

[@hugofonseca5637]

Hey buddy what kind of glue you use

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Loctite Power Grab construction adhesive homedepot.sjv.io/P0544q

[@Jyantis]

What size nails did you use for the shiplap

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

23 gauge headless pin nails. Just to hold it until the glue dries.

[@Jyantis]

Thank you.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

You are welcome. On a wall I would recommend an 18 Guage Brad nail into the studs.

[@briant9764]

Its 300 in 2021 lol

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thankfully prices are coming down!
