DIY: Make and Install Floating Shelves with Free Materials

[@ssumner9757]

I savor your videos. My late husband & I were working to be self relient in the 90's. We had a mini farm with stocked pond, fruit trees, 16 French bed garden plots, wood burner, etc. I canned, froze & dehydrated food, darted herbs & flowers. But after he passed away, I couldn't keep up with the chores & work. He was only 52 & I was 42 when he passed. I am now 63 & long for those days, so I live them through you...of what could have been for us. Please keep up posting your progress as it gives me so much pleasure & calm. Love to Callow & your beautiful wife & daughters.

[@trevorcrowley2569]

Thank you for including lots of clips of Cali. She is a very lucky dog to enjoy your lifestyle. Of course you are also lucky to have such a wonderful dog

[@gayleblydenstein4338]

This is the first time I have seen you make boards out of trees. I couldn’t imagine how you did it. Fantastic contraption. Better yet, knowing how to do it. I have been watching your videos for several months now, and it’s always such a treat. What a compound you have created. And Cali! I love her! Your interaction with her is a beautiful thing. Thank you for these wonderful videos. I’m a fan for life.

[@vincecotton127]

They say watching fish in a fishtank is relaxing. I find the same with watching your videos. Thanks so much for your time and effort in putting these Vids together. Cheers from Australia!

[@nick.caffrey]

Well now, that is what they call a 'backhanded' compliment! :-)

[@mikebatty9632]

This is the only kind of ASMR I can get behind!

[@tschaeikaei3]

Well, fish in a fishtank are in a artificial but made like natural habitat. It is exactly the same with this guy.

[@realpolicetalk]

I just can't express how great your cabin and surronings are.

[@mamareed810]

What a joy to see Calli frolicking in her playground! I have enjoyed every minute watching you build & discover innovative ways to solve problems.

[@TinyHouseLife]

unreal! hand crafted, cut and built. Rustic, natural floating wood shelves. Everything you do is so inspiring!!

[@hanorabrennan8846]

Heck, you make everything you do look so simple. Sign of a true professional. Great to see Cali in her playground.

[@THardy.]

Excellent filming and camera angles! You have your hands full . . . with cabin projects AND Keeping Cali occupied! Love following along on your projects and progress.

[@martinemjt]

i find it so relaxing to watch this.

[@FLATSWISS]

These floating shelves are especially nice for smaller dwellings.. Nice work as usual.. Peace on the Plane Brother

[@michaelhutchison9601]

I have watched every one of your posts. The one thing I have never heard, is how big is the inside, of your beautiful cabin.

[@garybelcher8259]

Another great video. You sir are a true to nature craftsman and a great teacher!! 👍👍👍

[@sakibkashmiri1090]

Awesome pin point accuracy.

[@semajh2]

Happy Belated Fathers Day! I am thrilled as always with your workmanship! I think this the first time I ever saw you using a power tool.

[@timothypirnat3754]

Good solid content Shawn! A good standard to measure why we tune in to your channel. A suggestion for a video: A whole day with Cali. Playing, hiking, feeding/treats, and general petting/spoiling. She is so patient, waiting on you while you get your work done. You know I have two, and I would never get anything done around here if the goldens had their way. lol

[@sbaker3426]

Cali makes me smile, i love her so much! Same goes for all the videos!☺️

[@ericchilver9113]

Good evening, and Thankyou for these videos, I don’t turn the tv on anymore , I find these videos much more enjoyable. Victoria Australia 🇦🇺......looking forward to your ongoing self reliance. Motivation for myself 👍

[@bettysman]

Like the logo with sound effects. I have family left in Minnesota after my Mom and Dad moved out here to California in 1949, and one thing on my bucket list was to hear the loon calls on one of the northern Minnesota lakes. So last year I made the trip with my wife and soaked in those awesome sounds of the wild.

[@mikefedele4521]

who says you need to talk to teach. selves look awesome. It looks homier every time you add to it. it all looks great thank you for sharing with the world.

[@janetwithers7427]

Happy Father's Day to you. That cherry wood is cutting up nicely. The shelves are lovely. Bet it makes the cabin smell wonderful. Relaxing video to watch. 🐱💞

[@Astrank]

Not a single word, i love this channel.

[@barrywebber100]

Your chainsaw plank cutting technique always fascinates me Shawn so simple but so effective. Wood is such a wonderful material to work with and you are able to do so much with it! If I was fitting the shelves I think I would find it difficult to line up the holes with the dowels! Thanks for posting and best wishes.

[@heatherw260]

PLEASE make a video discussing all of the various tools you use!! To include your favorites & their capabilities!

[@TheMrJoeMac]

The cabin is looking great. Nice to see you getting it ready for your wife to move in. Can't wait to see what else you're adding. As always, thanks for sharing your journey.

[@tamila7381]

Good morning Shawn and Cali from Missouri, soon to be Arkansas! I've found my homestead! It's not as grand as yours but it's a start. Love all your videos! I've learned so much by watching you. Thank you sir!

[@sherryellesson9665]

Pami Cat Congratulations!!! I'm happy for you. I have my little place in Delaware and it is both, the biggest challenge and biggest joy in my life. Blessings and best wishes!

[@codelicious6590]

There's some beautiful country in Arkansas, I'm envious. Fare well.

[@Compton2952]

You make my days go by and I so much appreciate it. I don't comment much at all, but I watch all these videos. Hi Cali

[@angelacopacetic]

That banjo music makes me happy! Shawn your videos are so satisfying to watch. Thanks for having us along.

[@texaswader]

I think that I have learned something from each of your videos and appreciate you sharing them with us. I wish that I had your carpentry skills!

[@jorgthomas8854]

Is there actually something you can´t do yourself? Simply admirable.

[@jamesbockenstette4332]

Thank you for including Cali. She is a joy. I enjoy your videos. The music adds to the experience. Nice.

[@pierreabrie9445]

I always find your videos extremely calming and relaxing. Thank you for sharing and all the effort. Regards from Joburg South Africa.

[@Nannygoat]

l got some good pointers from watching this video. l am looking forward to your family moving to the land, cabin, and watching future videos with them included.

[@craigretzloff]

I’ve installed a fair share of intricate shelving in custom built homes. Those are “man shelves”. Rugged, beautiful and functional. Nice upgrades, Shawn!

[@young-soonkim6730]

Good Monday Shawn & Cali🐕! I am glad to see no mosquitoes buzzing around on this video!👍🙋🤗

[@LadyPurple911]

There she is Calli! Go get it girl! Have fun! When James gets busy, you may have to wait a min or two but he won’t forget you. Good girl, stay out of the way, stay safe, but stay close. I just love it. When I get up there, Im going to throw that thing for you as many times as you like. You are my new friend. LOL. Thanks James for how you care for Ms. Cali.

[@rosegordon4297]

I love watching all your video's, creating new ideas and wood skills that you truly are excellent on achieving every time. 🇬🇧

[@kratmostang9049]

You're unique craftsman skills really interest me Nice work mate.

[@Roman-lu1xn]

That cabin is pretty cozy and getting cozier by the minute.

[@legendrebernard2549]

a great pleasure to discover it thanks a lot merci beaucoup from French Brittany

[@katoasian]

I like the camera angle s and perspectives in the video ! thank you

[@wildshaggyblue64]

Hope you had a good Father's Day … hope your family came for a visit Thanks for sharing :)

[@LadyPurple911]

And down comes the map! Aw! My children are adults now, but they loved the big map we kept on our wall so they could mark out places they have been and are going. We gave them smaller maps to follow as we would drive through the states and then we would talk about the states’ flower, bird, best growing product, etc. Fun times. Wish my grands were closer so they can do the same thing.

[@kevinkaiser920]

I know you show a couple books briefly in one of your other videos, but I'd love it if you did a video on what books you have on those nice shelves that you consulted when you built your cabin.

[@dougscode]

Loved this video. Seeing the Alaskan mill working and the free wood for the shelves.

[@MycketTuff]

You know you live in a nice northern place when there's beautiful shadows all year round.

[@richardparker3150]

Shawn , Tis a fancy way for great shelves. I like your way of putting them up.

[@MJAMES1021]

Hello from Robbinsville, North Carolina. Cali is such a happy dog.

[@nealbirch9462]

ages ago, my great great grandpa built a sod house in Nebraska. He put a board between the sods for a shelf, but didn't measure quite right, the clock wouldn't fit, so he sawed the top off, make it work! Grandma sold it for a decent sum, because the buyer thought is was a wonderful story!

[@mjones6115mj]

Good Morning Shawn! Hopefully your week is full of progress. And mother nature is nice and cool! Have a great week!

[@eshqa]

I didn't know shelves could be attached that way, without hardware. It looks great. 😊

[@happywilliam1]

Last time it was just before bed time and this time i wake up to a new video! Cheers from Sweden

[@greywolfwalking6359]

Oh I don't know I think Cali is the MOST WONDERFUL PUPPY IN THE WORLD with Shawn to be with it is great watching this as I get better from surgery I know what it is like to build would love to be 20 yrs younger to do it again YEAH IT IS THE LIFE !!!

[@michaelranalli932]

I think 2018 was going at a better pace than 2019. Wasn’t what I expecting when I saw the video you did taking about your plans for this year. Hoping the second half is more packed with builds

[@cyndifoore7743]

I love watching what you do. Great shelves. I love Goldens too, the best dogs ever.

[@kimperes5987]

Shawn, everything you do or make is perfect!

[@jeanblythe1595]

KZbin has not been giving me notifications for almost a week now, and it's starting to really get annoying. That being said, I'm so glad to be able to watch your videos at all. This was delightful. Cherry wood is so pretty, and it does smell good! Nice shelves, what a nice look to have them floating there. Cali got her exercise, and you made some great sawdust! Thank you for sharing your projects with your devoted subscribers!

[@heraldoriviera3851]

A calm and soothing episode! Makes me want out of this suburb even more.

[@brianbond7856]

Another quality video mesmerizing

[@strykerist]

Shawn, You make the floating shelves look so easy! I put one up in bathroom and it took me hours! Grrr.. great video today, as always!

[@Oxatolla]

Hi Shawn, you are still the best! The taxman hit me pretty hard this year. It has made me understand you all the more. Stay safe and thank you! D from PS.

[@joeg3140]

I love the way Cali is training you to throw her toy when she wants you to throw it. Smart dog.

[@Tsiri09]

I could do this with pallet wood. I love building with my hands- VERY relaxing!

[@susanwong9592]

Great to be back on track watching you build your dream come true. Thank you for sharing your great spectacular piece of your amazing work . Hi Cali, you are busy running up and down happily picking up your fav throw toys. Happy day to you both.

[@randybryant9936]

Those shelves turned out great looks good

[@chrismatson7943]

I spy a Maine Warden model paddle from Shaw and Tenney in Orono, Maine, in your opening shot. Good choice! Shaw and Tenney are in a neighboring town to me. I got a Maine Guide paddle for my Grand Laker canoe for Father's Day.

[@davidoyama9753]

Thanks for showing us your new floating shelves ! Looks great ! A lot of work but nice ! Thanks Shawn !

[@gsicord]

You’re like an interior designer setting up the things on the shelves! Good eye! 😁

[@GerryDX]

Must've been a beaver in a previous life! Great show!

[@skygerspacher6891]

Man.....I love that cutting thing you put on your chainsaw to make boards out of a log. It's like having your own little sawmill.

[@gregjohnson298]

You've really built an amazing place,it looks so peaceful there.Very nice!

[@larryjacobs5713]

Thanks this is exactly what I need at my cabin

[@Sonnenschein-nv6xy]

Great video Shawn! Cali loves her daddy!!!

[@gaia4875]

[@Pixxelshim]

Good job to please Mrs. Self Reliance! But I also liked the chart!

[@baktyun]

It's a heavy Monday, but it's healing with your video!

[@webby459]

The wisdom of training Callie on that day glow orange float toy is 100!

[@Squires85]

You keep that saw incredibly clean

[@bobthecat6188]

Those saw horses and shave horse have had a heck of a lot of use , can’t wait to see how u fit out your workshop , once it’s built that is , ,love watching u create.

[@kathleencrepeau2063]

Well its very refreshing to watch someone who enjoys what they're doing ...it really comes through! I really liked the sgelves in this one and esp. the antlers! Wish I had some! lol Happy to see your videos as always...thanks for sharing! :)

[@genefoust5569]

Hello my friend Happy Father's Day Sunday June 16th 11 o'clock a.m. 90ﾟ degrees Sunday North Carolina

[@LadyPurple911]

Love those horses you use to cut on. I need those for my sister who makes quilts, maybe smaller. LOL. Quinn (my husband) says you want all of those tools and don’t know how to use any of them! LOL I say, you’re never too old to learn. Look at that patient Cali! She knows you are going to throw her toy sooner or later.

[@MirceaRechesan]

This is the single channel I feel bad when I forget to leave a thumbs up. Thank you again for the relaxing videos!

[@comsigninc]

Mircea Rechesan I try to thumbs up before watching so I don’t forget.

[@איתיק-ב2ס]

הסרטונים שלך כול כך טובים עד שגם במזרח התיכון רואים אותם! באמת פשוט אדיר!!!💥💥😎

[@shartne]

That looks beautiful man. Good install idea.

[@jordansezai1748]

I forgot how pleasant the Canadian woods look at this time of the year.

Happy Father’s Day Shawn.

[@jasoncharbonneau9235]
