DIY Closet Shelves. Fast, Cheap and Easy!

[@blakefowler4287]

I like how you made the top shelf a bit shallower. Great build!

[@romanykemp9042]

So I pretty well followed your guide to the letter - pretty happy with the way it turned out. Things I erred on was not cutting the shelves to a "tighter" tolerance on the width - took more caulk to fill in the gaps. And attaching the face board to the shelf - another area to work on - some of mine had a very slight ridge - that made it harder to create that seamless look. All novice mistakes. Thanks for the video - my only suggestions might be to provide links or additional comments on the material used (paint, router bit used, etc). It will help novice folks - like myself - and in my opinion make a great HOWTO video even better...

Very clean finish. Love it.

[@HoneySparkles2]

😂😂😂 thought it would be a simple...you start with awesome tools.. that are well..not simple saw..😮😮 BEAUTIFUL work.

[@sandrarichardson2713]

For some reason I feel you give your best to any job you do...large or small. Beautiful attention to detail. Tremendous example of taking pride in your work. Jesus bless.

[@robbag2045]

Wish you made more videos. Great job

[@virginiajeffery3930]

Dang, you caulked it and made it fancy. I just want some shelves installed ASAP No luck, though. Great work!

[@bryancraig7458]

Great simple shelves and video. Looks fantastic. Thank you!

[@MsCandy718]

Exactly what I'm looking for. Newbie to woodwork and desperately need this in my closet

[@mikeD1886]

Dude, nice finish! Thanks for giving me ideas about fiber and particle boards.

[@magneficant1]

Where can i find they drill bit your using for the pilot

[@anonsequitur789]

Really helpful video - this looks so nice and premium compared to other closet shelf builds I've seen! What kind of white filler do you use to cover up the nails & screws?

[@Jags22079]

Thanks, it's now on my DIY list. I have exactly the same space

[@capture_smartphotography1917]

Thanks for this video. Was exactly what I was looking for

[@moniquerich5743]

Looks amazing! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@mattbowers5342]

This came out great, nice work!

[@danfeliciano570]

Nice work, the closet looks great.

[@boondock6055]

Nice job joey!

[@rhodesmk]

What size screws did you use to mount the 1x2 supports to the wall? What size brads/nails in the nail gun for attaching the shelves to the supports? Did you also use glue? Finally, what did you fill the space left by drilling the screw holes? My area where I am going to add shelves is a bit wider and deeper (about 3 feet each direction), but this is exactly what I envisioned when we converted our tub to a shower, and pulled the old shower stall out. Had all that done by pros, so all I have left to do is add the shelves where the shower used to be and paint the wall and shelves. Thanks for a great video!

[@KarthikMariappan]

Hi Josh. I am trying this project tomorrow. Can you tell me what screws size did you use, also the nail sizes please. Thank you for the video. This will be my first wood project.

[@TheLawnWhisperer]

So you’re basically using a 1x1 or I guess a 3/4 x 1 for the supports?

[@jodhast.clair-canaii4427]

Same question I just asked lol because wasn’t clear in video

[@ryanbarton433]

Tanner and I are requesting more :)

[@joshweightwoodworks]

Sponsor me 😁

[@AtlasRealtyLLC]

Nice work!

[@lifeofmo8248]

Love your videos. Could you link the tools and accessories you used in your description? Would love to know what brand of support you used to attach the leveling tool to the door

[@sandradjaka8983]

Great video! This is so helpful.

[@larrybeagen5585]

I really like that circular saw guide you used. It looks like you made that yourself - is there a video on that?

[@wesalmeidarestorations8128]

Great video. I'm working on something similar in the next couple days.

[@ArtMom5boys]

Beautiful

[@kevinb6102]

What length screws did you use to attach the supports to the studs. Thx

[@brf351c]

What did you use for the circular saw guide. Looks like a DIY guide. Nice job on the shelving - MDF easy to cut vs 3/4 wood.

[@jodhast.clair-canaii4427]

We’re those strips 3/4 inch thickness? And the height you cut them to 1 inch?

[@amandataylor8706]

Hey! I’m actually following pretty much what you’re doing to build our wood shelves. I don’t think I have the appropriate screws though. What did you use? Or did you use a drillbit with the counterbore in it too? I want to be able to fill over the screw in paint it white again. Thanks for any help!

[@leticiablass7405]

What is the distance between shelves or could be at my choice

[@cindyneri579]

Great job!

[@jodhast.clair-canaii4427]

Also what nails did you use with the gun is it 18 gauge?

[@sincerelym11]

Thanks so much, this video is great! Can you please tell me what type of laser level you used?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

I can’t remember the model number right now but it’s a Bosch cross line laser level. One of the cheaper models. It works great

[@WolfRoy66]

What did you charge for this job in terms of billable hours? Just did a paint estimate yday and they have 2 closets just like this one you've showed that they want open shelves built into. I got lucky today your vid was the 1st to pop up and exactly what I needed

[@ElianyRobles-n8r]

Love this! Do you have a storefront?

[@chipsammich2078]

What size is that door? Is it custom

[@emiliaescobar7652]

Love it!

[@johndunford5087]

Hey, Superb work. What laser lever do you have?

[@producertimmyp]

How did the vertical spacing end up work out on your shelves?

[@eweredumbiri3160]

Nice, what is the name of what you attached in the wardrobe that makes it easier to mark the lines

[@KS-se5fm]

level

[@marlathomas3373]

How far apart are they

[@Bapuji42]

Awesome. Mind if I ask a few questions? How did you paint all three sides of those front strips without getting paint all over your fingers and having the strips stick to the tabletop? Also, what is that tool you used to make the roundover?

[@joshymcdaniel9233]

Late but idea for u Take a 1x2 furring board $1.50-2 @ box store cut in half or 4 equal pieces lay them down now put wood you’re painting right on top of them basically you’re just making mini saw horses that lay on table/ counter top’ Tip paint your edges first then roll out top’ Hope that helps

[@Bapuji42]

@@joshymcdaniel9233 Thanks

[@Bapuji42]

What I ended up doing is putting some 1.5" finish nails through some 1/2" thick scraps and setting the pieces I'm painting on the sharp ends. I can even paint both sides of a board at once.

[@joshymcdaniel9233]

@@Bapuji42 glad u got it sorted’ Answer to your question was 10 months late 🤣 perhaps it will help someone in the future reading through’ If you didn’t figure it out It’s a round over bit’ Most common are 1/8” or 1/4” rounder bit for router’

[@MissJnet]

Beautiful.

[@marzgtp]

What the height of each shelf? I had a similar closet.

[@KathyKR]

Why the caulking?

[@royfernandez8667]

Is there trim on the inside of the door?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

No there isn’t. The closet isn’t deep enough to even be able to get your head in and look back so I don’t even notice

[@adamferoli]

What is the name of the bit used to make the holes in the support trim for the screws?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

It’s a countersink drill bit

[@FATBOYSPIZZA]

What type of nail gun and nails do you use in this?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

They are 18 gauge. I can’t remember the length but probably 1 1/2” or something like that.

[@MetaMess.X]

Wait is this ligit? He really said that in front of NATOnyahu? 😮

[@jenniferblanco2627]

love that idea! where did you get the small door if you don’t mind me asking?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

I got it from a local door and trim shop near me. It’s the Masonite Winslow though, they are available a lot of places.

[@CraigMcIn0312]

How much weight would you say these shelves hold?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

Hard to say for sure but they are solid. We have them loaded up with soap, shampoo, candles, etc. and they don’t even flex or anything.

[@brandonkendziora3739]

What’s the tool you used to round the edges of the shelf?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

It’s just a 1/8” round over bit in a router

[@512mark2012]

What size are the front strips ? That hang to cover the support strips

[@joshweightwoodworks]

They are about 1 3/4” tall

[@Itskellssyall]

Awesome! What do u use to fill up the hedges?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

Do you mean the edges? I used caulk

[@Nukemall305]

can you share the stud finder you used?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

It’s the zircon hd55 I believe

[@irynafed7]

Nitty job

[@hillaryrodgers8915]

What dimensions are you support strips?

[@joshweightwoodworks]

They are 3/4” thick and 1” tall

[@tbeautifulmelodies9820]

Come to my home and build one for me 😂😂😂

[@noneya5824]

So it looks great but it's a shame that it's MDF because it's a bathroom and overtime MDF isn't the best choice near water . Your towels will become muffy smelling

[@TelDabarba]

Bruh... I aint got them machines lol wth

[@amandacalderon4355]

You can cut your wood at Home Depot

[@rachellu5094]

Nice video, but not good for beginners. Shelves look great though!

[@PC-so4lg]

Tum log toh IKEA ko kha gaye... Pura!!!

[@-a-strikelures1212]

Just use a dang nail gun. U guys and your screws lol

[@gaazag6643]

easy with $6000 worth of tools

[@srqFF]

A table saw, chop saw and circular saw can be had for less than $1000 easily.
