It is better to alternate the boards, having the ‘grain’ of one sheet at right angles to the one below. This increases the strength enormously.

[@williampennjr.4448]

you could also reenforce it with a straight bracket or the straight part of a plastic hanger between the cardboard layers. This is especially good if you dont want the shelf to be so thick.

[@stan.rarick8556]

I've been using Elmer's glue with cardboard for years - works great!

[@18missmm]

This is an absolute PERFECT solution for what I need on my budget! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙌❤️

[@AmonNouse]

cheaper to buy one from ikea!

[@wolraadwoltemade3275]

@@AmonNouse can't beat mass production I learned this the hard way making stuff from stone and granite I'd have to charge 3x the market price on amazon for the same item I make can't compete at all.

[@cassiecarmichael]

Very nice work, forget the people who can't appreciate your work. The finishing touch of the veneer was excellent!

[@annblachly8068]

Thank you for the details to pay attention to for making sturdy furniture, smaller projects.

[@jaspermartin7444]

Ingenius! I have a fancy armoire which is used as a dresser and it needs another shelf but matching the wood grain isn't possible, so it feels silly spending money for something which is never going to look quite right. But this free -- free is GREAT for "almost matches"! Thanks!

[@pierreandre6120]

Friend Kikomoda, your work to me is lovely art, brilliance, and simplicity. Thank you for showing us this video. Blessings from New Mexcio. pierre

[@clanravencub]

It's worth alternating the directions of the corrugation. It should vast increase the strength

[@AdamFraserKruck]

I would only add one sheet in the other direction. The majority should be the way they show. This is similar to OSB oriented strand board.

[@AdamFraserKruck]

@Robert Flask OSB has some flakes in every direction, but the majority are oriented a certain way to increase the strength. The "strength axis" is stamped on the bottom of every sheet.

[@questioner113]

It would depend on which way the shelf is going to span, ie, if it is transferring loads along both axes. I since the supports are on the two sides of the shelf and not at the back, it makes sense to have all the corrugations span between the supports. If the back of the shelf had some supports below it, then alternating the direction of the corrugations might serve some purpose.

I love how neat your work is!!!

[@kikomoda]

Thank you!

[@floppydisk4500]

kikomoda it's good but it would be stronger if you alternate the grain of the cardboard, like making plyboard. 😊

Thank you so much for this ideaaaa! Will be living in a compound apartment and building some pf my wardrobe shelving and this is such a good help! Thank youuu!

[@lyteyearz5810]

Did you end up doing it? If so, how did it turn out?

[@ebubeonyeka4747]

I'm only searching this up cause idk what to do with all my leftover moving boxes and I'm tryna make the biggest DIY room makeover ever lmao

[@jelenabakajic2211]

And? How was it?

[@andrewkh3710]

Omg. Same. This feels like I'll be making more waste than earlier with all the paper and glue.

[@18despues]

why aren't we all doing this????? there is SO MUCH cardboard out there. I'm embaressed by how much cardboard I have.

[@hildahernandezgomez7702]

Excelentes ideas!!! Me sacaste de un apuro!!! muchísimas gracias!

[@TSD0416]

Wow this is a great way to recycle and reuse cardboard. You've done an excellent job. I swear your shelf is much sturdier that those at IKEA.

[@your_average_cultured_dude]

It's not. Ikea has the cardboard stripes vertically and in a honeycomb shape to hold the weight and distribute it (almost) equally across the whole piece of wood.

[@hiramyawicks1287]

So useful. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@mnk5771]

Excelente tutorial y muy buena musica, gracias.

[@juneribbons5196]

[@d.t.b3223]

Excellent job,well done 👏👏👏

[@RavenVargas27]

It's not only beautiful a perfect match to. I did this same trick, had a piece of particle board to thin to support weight I wood glued 3 pcs of heavy cardboard to it next day covered it with wood grain contact paper, it marched the other shelves so well my friend couldn't tell

[@Markofitch]

do you think you could make a floating cardboard shelve tutorial ? that would be cool

[@udayamanikkaratnam8822]

Very nice I always make with box what I need.

[@loubnak.191]

great job as always! And just in time for a project of mine. Your work is awesome

[@reinaldorey3939]

Great job!

[@penetratingstain]

pretty slick boss. If you made a whole shelving unit out of it it would weight a helluva lot less than that particle board and be just as structurally sound.

[@anasoliscaballero6896]

Me encantan sus trabajos, son hermosos, prolijos y es una manera excelente de reciclar. Me gustaría que pusieran subtitulos en español para poder aprender bien la técnica. Felicitaciones por todo lo que hacen, saludos desde Chiapas, México.

If you alternate the direction of the grain it makes the shelf even stronger.

[@Dailystory43]

boom

[@jakubc6230]

paper plywood? :D

[@karoma7898]

@haveaniceday care to explain?

[@your_average_cultured_dude]

@haveaniceday it is true. If you alternate the direction of the grain of each cardboard layer it will be stronger. It's just how physics work.

[@your_average_cultured_dude]

@haveaniceday and if you want an actual explanation: it will be way harder to bend in half since the other layers are the opposite way so they don't let you bend it in half.

[@algrell1]

Great Idea !!!!

[@user-zk6ri4bm2f]

Very nice ! 👍 Thank you a lot

[@lureema3000]

It really work 😀

[@berryglee]

Excellent thanks for sharing

[@deenszxking6818]

When you stack it together, you should cross them piece by piece to make it strong. If you don't know what I mean by that, I will try to explain it as detail as possible. Let say you have 5 pieces of cardboard that you want to stack it together. You will notice that a cardboard has many straw hole. When you stack and glue them together, 1st pieces of cardboard hole will facing the different direction from 2nd pieces of cardboard when glued together like a cross. The same goes between 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th, and 4th ro 5th.

[@user-zk2vc9cf3w]

Amazing you are a very good carpenter

[@danandam7100]

Wish I'd seen these videos before my friend got rid of all her moving boxes and my cardboard. I was going to get some plywood cut for shelving but this would have been cheaper!

[@powerpuff7697]

Can you put the measurements of the cardboard please

Superrrr

How old are you that your parents don't let you go to a store? Wtf? I bet they don't let you use scalpels either
