Fitting some simple shelves in Deb's laundry room, building into the alcove with Ply & Pine build.

These are some simple shelves for storage that are going to get painted, I first cut a rebate on some 70mm x 32mm timber with the table saw for the front rail that will help to stop these 1metre wide shelves bending/sagging, I fixed 45mm x 20mm timber to the wall with 70mm x 5g ScrewTite screws & 6mm red plugs. i drilled the wall with a Bosch 18v SDS drill with a 6mm masonry bit, I cut the shelves roughly to size with a Makita 36v cordless track plunge saw, then scribed them to fit the wall with a compass, the front timber with the rebate in was glued with Everbuild 30MIN PU7 glue & pinned using a FN001GD201 40V MAX XGT 18g Brushless Brad Nailer, then sanded with a Makita 18v orbital disk sander,
I don't make these videos to make money or out of vanity, I make them to share the tips I've learnt over 36yrs as a joiner, but filming, editing, exporting, reviewing & uploading does take a lot of time, so if you have gained/learnt anything from any of my videos & would like to thank me or help me out you can show your appreciation by donating & pls clicking the PayPal link below, it has a card details option if you don't have a PayPal account, every little helps & will be much appreciated.

Hi gid I love your videos I often watch them multiple times as I can really relate to them. Thank you for taking the time to make these great vids for all us fans

[@Gidjoiner]

Thankyou & you'r very welcome 👍 It's good to read comments from others who can relate to what n why I do some of the things I do & that my workshop is a place for work not play. 👍

[@barclay50]

Brilliant, just what I needed to fit some shelves in a cupboard , not dissimilar to yours , Thank you

[@Gidjoiner]

You’re more than welcome, I hope your shelves build goes well 👍 PS I got an email from PayPal, thankyou again, very much appreciated 😊

[@steveknapp244]

This channel is amazing. I can’t believe it’s taken the YT algorithm so long to recommend it to me. You are the king of scribing and your method of scribing the shelves and window boards etc. side to side is just the best and simplest way. Loving the no nonsense approach to everything and the tips are absolutely gold compared to the same old generic stuff on other channels.

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks Steve, much appreciated👍 I was trained at a firm who had a decent workshop, we also went on site to do general joiner & fit the things we made, I was made redundant & for many yrs i was an on site joiner initially working through the agencies doing alsorts of joinery jobs working with many different people, then i got in with half a dozen good firms, on site sometimes i'd be classed as a 'Fitter' 👍 I film my work with my phone because it's always in my pocket, I don't have a fancy camera & microphone, i do use a tripod but my work gets priority over filming, I try to share as much as i can & share my thoughts as to the reasons for the decisions i make, so that's good to hear you like that, I film my work & share rather than do jobs to make YT vids, if that makes sense, so sometimes there's gaps between my uploads when jobs don't get filmed because either i just can't, the job needs doing & i haven't time to film or simply the job gets done before the camera comes out. & i've got a powerful PC & plenty of expensive editing software but i like to keep my videos simple, no pointless intro, no fancy graphics, I don't stand in front of the camera talking about 'stuff', there's no promotion crap & i try to keep any irrelevant bull to a minimum, it's eyes on the job start to finish, I think maybe my vids aren't 'entertaining' enough to raise the many subs & views others get, so my vids don't get promoted in the same way but i'll keep filming & uploading as often & as n when i can 👍👍 ,

[@ackec-umsekkruch-ekucki952]

I didn't think you should hammer drill through tiles in case they crack. I always switch it off until I drill through them. Interesting. Fab video as always. Just a simple thing done to perfection. I can see you acquired some new toys. That Hoover is actually manufactured by Nilfisk. I had one of them for 5 years until it died last month only to be replaced by the same one. Good to see you're in great shape!

[@Gidjoiner]

No you're right it's not a good idea to hammer drill through tiles, I did try to make it clear it wasn't a good idea & i should've mentioned turning off the hammer action, but sometimes if the tiles are hard & the drill if it isn't sharp it just burns the bit, this was prob not the best example but i took a gamble n luckily it was ok. No idea about the Makita vac, i've had it for yrs n it works well when the filters clear, & yeah I've always got new toys, you just haven't seen some of these because i haven't been filming but i've been trying to go completely cordless, since swapping the Makita track saw for a cordless one i've been able to replace the corded tools i didn't want to be Bosch cordless, it's a slippery slope. 😁😂 Bit fat n old but yeah i'm ok thanks, keep well yourself 👍

[@gss6531]

Tile hardness matters, but so does the adhesive behind the tile. If someone has dot and dabbed it rather than trowelling, leaving a void behind the tile will definitely cause it to crack.

Thanks 👍 yeah it's ok, not as powerful or as smooth as the air Bostitch, this ones a bit clunky but i'm getting used to it & no hose n compressor is a huge bonus, yeah, this nailer wasn't cheap but each month I can just about afford the price of a cordless drill, so this was a couple of mths toys in one, I might grind the nose a little to see if i can get better depth 🤔😂👍

[@TheToolnut]

@@Gidjoiner Is that Makita 40V Brad nailer limited to 40mm brads Gid? I'll be getting a couple of 40V tools at some point, the 216mm mitre saw first maybe. A dual bevel head on a cordless mitre saw that isn't too big is a big attraction for me. Anything bigger than 216mm is too big to be lugging in and out of a van every day. I have the same little 190mm Makita 36V as you but when I'm doing stair balustrades it's a bit limited.

Thanks, unfortunately to get text to speech, you need to have a 365 licence, not a perpetual licence. I have Vegas Pro19 Perpetual (how did you know?) but this was edited with Magix Movie Edit Pro Premium 2022, 3x faster than Vegas for render/export & plays 4k at full res transitions 1st time without having to loop play before getting up to full fps, Does YT subtitles not work?

@@Gidjoiner Oh that's amazing tool. Can they transport that render and playback performance to Vegas? I came here through your signature link!

[@Gidjoiner]

amazing tool? Apparently for Vegas to work as well & render as fast as MEP Premium it would need a total rewrite of the software, MEP got a new Infusion engine a few yrs ago which improved performance drastically, these videos i make are normally roughly 20mns long, Vegas renders them in about 15-18mins-ish, it also crashes quite a lot,, MEP renders them in 5mins & is very stable 😁🤸‍♂️👍 but MEP can't do some of the stuff that Vegas does & most of my Boris plugins don't work in MEP, so i'm stuck using both, I now use Vegas as more of an effects editor & MEP for simple editing, luckily i like to keep my YT vids simple, no fancy pants intro & none of the bull that you get in other's vids, 👍😊

[@bca7839]

@@Gidjoiner 👍😊 Do you know when will Magix give Infusion engine toVegas？

[@Gidjoiner]

I've no idea & i don't know if it will ever happen, Gary Vegas's production manager commented on the Vegas forum about it needed to be rewritten to replace the engine, Vegas team is small & it seems they're trying to patch old software to keep it up to date whilst adding a few extra gimmicks to make it appear 'modern', I suspect Vegas will slowly fall behind or get a big budget one day n get rewritten, until then we can only wait...

@@aaronbell8527 Paslode is baaaad! Everybody hate Paslode because it stinks! Regrettably though, it just works. I've only known Paslode really so can't comment on other brands but if Paslode is what majority use there's probably a reason for it. They're expensive, expensive to run but you can take them apart like firearms, clean and lubricate them and spare parts are readily available. Paslode is a trade off for me but one that I got used to and can deal with its quirks reasonably quickly. It still stinks though!
