I really enjoy plans from woodprix.

[@waitersluvhjy66]

Pure awesomeness!

[@shantayprueeissen8914]

@@waitersluvhjy66 Totally agree!

[@bobdickweed]

where did the book go ?

[@anetti53]

Tha is beautifully made shelving 👍

[@robyn6860]

The Shelves are absolutely Awesome, however, for some of us, without any further insight and/or instruction, its kinda pointless... Ha! Do you have any other videos on this particular project? If so, would love to see them. Thanks alot.... Have a Wonderful Day. Robyn

[@lazyjackassknock]

Somehow when he made the new shelves, he got completely new books in the process...and less books too.

[@semircapelo7496]

GOOD POINT I NOTICED THE SAME

[@employmentrockstar]

fake books are THE WORST!!! 😝 would have loved to see it with the old books back on the shelf.

[@AsgardStudios]

Brilliant! Cheers Adam.

[@isopdt]

that is just brilliant. what a craftsman.

[@MelodyChangDipABRSMCTABRSM]

Thanks for sharing.

[@quittrynabemeyouredoingaba6852]

Love those steps mate! Been wondering how I was going to bring large shelves to where its needed ... garage is down the bottom and only way to the lounge is 3 different flights of stairs 😒😩🤦🏽‍♀️ but that idea makes things sooooooo much easier!! Especially how I want to use different pallet boards 😁🥰 chur!

[@TranTheClever]

I like the idea of the "U" shape system for structure. Also, Chiefs Kingdom baby!!! 3:16

[@AmythefirstA]

Very clever construction!

[@stewartbrown7126]

virtually no detail on the construction, just an Ad for the measure, don't waste peoples time

[@Robin_Coffins]

don't blame Adam lol he didn't upload this, this is a TV show that is chopped and uploaded onto youtube. The details for the build were no doubt in the weekly magazine they bring out, they usually are. And to the ad part, that's how the show is able to afford to build this shit for free for people, they get sponsored and paid to advertise their products.

[@rojeriooliveira9457]

Parabéns. Belo trabalho

[@didilv2187]

those are not the books you took down. so now they have no place at all.

[@ccxcxz4377]

LMFAOOOO!! Glad someone said it. First thing I thought when this was all done. He threw out the owner's books! lol

[@methatlovescats3602]

that's what I want over the entryway of kitchen and wall of living room for entertainment.

[@TranTheClever]

I once built a dog house out of Aspen Board and never bothered to give it a coat of paint. Five years later I passed the dog house on to another dog lover as I no longer had a dog. I don't know how long it lasted after that point or if they painted it, but Aspen Board is pretty durable. 5:26

[@angelmertz6225]

Love the Harry Potter books going into the box.

[@Crazylalalalala]

nice project. completely unnecessary considering all the books were thrown out. but nice anyhow.

[@greenkitty79]

That's absolutely gorgeous looking, Adam!! I love the trick for making the level base.

[@TranTheClever]

Umm so this is way too badass for me to attempt but I'm in love with it and will stream of the day that I can make this!!😍 3:42

[@dont3222]

I was planning to build one like this for organizing my future collection of books and save space. Thanks, KZbin gave me idea even how to organize books and even save space further. iPad and Ebook is a way to go.

[@cookiescorner5651]

Hello Adam do you have a custom Built in with a TV on one side and Using Ship lap

[@mmzxalj6215]

Good timbar😎🙌🙆

[@fightingbear8537]

Looks great. The Natural finish lightens the room up.

[@valeyvegan1293]

wheres all those books then there were loads of them but none on the new shelves!

[@richardsonramble4166]

Beautiful!! SUBBED!!

[@shrimpbynightbythomas8212]

Great idea. I would love to build something like this that could hold fish tanks.

[@Nix_sound]

Cool interlocking modular design. I agree with the other comments though, where did all the books go? lol

[@respectableaf9061]

Except that none of the original books were in the shelf at the end...

[@qifanguo5549]

you just got completely different sets of books at the end lol

[@lindseywilliford4466]

How did he attach the shelves to the wall? I can't imagine they are just sitting there only using gravity..

[@robertcornelius3514]

+Lindsey Williford Yes, gravity. He's Trumptacular!

[@ccxcxz4377]

Yes, actually. All you need is gravity considering how fuckin' heaving that unit is...

[@RubberBandPistol]

100% had to attach them some how. Gravity would be great like everyone was saying, but a tip risk would be high. I came to this video specifically looking how to attach the shelf’s to the wall.

[@LE-bo4pp]

Great video. Can you make a diamond shaped bookshelf please?

[@vladimircabaiguan]

hello friend that app use to take your measurements from your smart phon

[@schlenbea]

I wish could make a whole bookshelf wall in under 4 minutes.

[@shaunZ96]

how did he achieve no gaps on either end? how is it perfectly flush?

[@shane1262]

His guys just to awesome lol has anyone actually tried this?

[@wandakowalski7063]

What is keeping it attached to the wall?????

[@jacobusjohannescaspers4476]

Very nice

[@rabnawaz397]

Cool

[@niranjan6725]

What is the Bosch Measuring tool being used......pls let me know the model no.

[@norbasza]

Bosch PLR 50 C

[@ExtremeAlaskanMom]

What is that tool that has an app on your phone, please?

[@chiquitababy5]

what are the wood measurements

[@eduardoosaki9169]

Kindle is the future

[@MsScherchen]

Great

[@JosJerseyJournals]

I need this for my yarn. lol could you come build it for me please lol lol lol

[@katiepandey5023]

You didn’t put your books back!! Thx for the laser intel.

[@sammfrankss6679]

he should be adding access to the tow kick for secret storage .

[@dejanaejackson14]

Plus it buckets

[@stephenware5828]

lol what happened to all the books from the beginning? They didnt go onto this bookshelf....

[@stevenmorris2293]

surely you would need to make some cleats under some shelves to attach it to the wall ?

[@hermosofootball9351]

you forgot to put the books back Adam

[@Loosehead]

What happened to all those books? Did they not look "elegant" enough?

[@olgakay7619]

Books?????

[@Quntah888]

Where is Rob Palmer? :/

[@wryuoni]

+Quntah888 Yes. i also wandering where is he.. I love how he do his works.

[@hainam1189]

What is that app?

[@starbwoyroahn]

where are the books ?

[@avoutdoor9897]

should made the shelves more flush to the wall

[@grimakastatik]

Video starts at 1:45

[@Diprotic]

he said he'll have a, "noice shelf" lmao 1:04

[@NosumHseebnrido]

Look nice, but it is a wast of time to make new furniture that can not fit old books.

[@talento398]

i want you in my home now

[@minastirith997]

looks like 90s

[@3506Dodge]

The automatic captions struggle with this guys speech.

[@yimboxer2]

who made it? I know not you .carpenters?

[@nisajacub8931]

i see harry potter books

[@martinmercedes8226]

i did not see him secure anything to the all

[@raylinhlaalu724]

Nice one... but this a display shelf, not a book shelf. There are less books in this one than there were laying next the old one. No one truely building a book storage would waste space by creating big boxes for dust magnets like you did...

[@olgakay7619]

Books??

[@thisistheendpt2]

OLGA KAY Why do you care where the books go?

[@varthdader9991]

Thanks for showing us what you did to make shelving, but not teaching anyone how to do it

[@janeromnicki6598]

It's good to see Woodglut have new instructions to save my money and energy to build it.

[@mcneeseremalf28]

woodprix includes very useful plans with all details I need

[@sherrylkeith6549]

I think you can make it yourself, just loook and learn from woodprix .

[@gnostie]

Nice video, but it starts off showing a real-life scenario, e.g. a bunch of books on the floor, but the finished shelving shows completely different items on the shelves, which look more like something out of a show room than a real human living situation. Would be good to see practicality all the way through.

[@integmy]

The title is 'how to' but no real detail. thats why the video so short. Pls change the title

[@mdomingz18]

and where is the actual build?

[@user-vk2sd5qb1g]

What is the big deal about the books in the beginning of the vid? The video is about a shelf being made.. not about books "disappearing."

[@wandakowalski7063]

Great video except for the awful noisy music … at the same level as your voice making it difficult to listen to! But thanks anyway.

[@hafzamacie8858]

I did it myself with the Stodoys plans. I think this is the best way to find out how to build it.

[@alaskanawesomeness9017]

big cracks in shelf to side piece ... junky

[@puryeareaker7975]

If you want, you can learn how to do it with Stodoys woodworking plans.

[@andreswadoski122]

Adam doesn't like books

[@HollywoodColt]

Great home ideas my ASS. I learned nothing from this video besides maybe how to make books dissappear......

[@anthonymastrud4119]

I thought he was going to show us how it's done. Disappointing

[@ParamjeetKaur-eb9qg]

Gu

[@oldskoolwayy]

I barely can understand him,

[@hiddeninthepages]

That color is not it 😔

[@RubberBandPistol]

Didn’t show how the shelves were attached to the wall. Some kid will die under a pile of books and all that wood.

[@MiguelLopez-ky8fs]

That was lame

[@Fedgery007]

This looks horrible. Looks like cheap IKEA bookcases.

[@joshuakerchief2910]

Great AD that taught me fucking nothing!

[@Dial8Transmition]

The wall color is horrible and the shelf itself looks very sterile

[@causeeffect7624]

He judged the books by their covers.....then chose smthg, dare I say better... !?! perceptively better, because we 'know' he did not read those books! so judgey.... sigh!

[@causeeffect7624]

I feel closed in upon now... too many shelves... Not over the door as well. too much is going on... the colors, maybe? 2 contrasting? Go monochrome.

[@filmmakerdude]

barely taught us anything, it advertised products more than educate - this video is a waste of time

[@guitarfoundry]

nasty item and zero information

[@WatchingTrainsGoBy-PassingTime]

That is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen. He may know how to join two pieces of wood together. But he hasn't got the tiniest bit of design talent or eye for what looks good.

[@sikhajat8132]

The green color is horrible honestly speaking.

[@olgakay7619]

Books?????
