How to Make a Wall Niche DIY

[@nonamehi]

True craftmanship. No cutting corners here. Great job. Thanks for uploading

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks for a compliment. Motivates me make more videos like that :).

[@happinnessa1]

I've been searching wall niche videos on youtube for maybe around 2 yearssss and finalyyy I found a proper one. Your method is excellent - straight forward. Keep up the good work! I'm sure you'll hit 1k in no time ;)

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks a lot! 1k subs is definetely nice motivation to produce better content in the future ;)

[@mactaggart7854]

A nice simple clean video. Thank you. Putting in a hidden cupboard in our laundry due to lack of available space. This with a door will be perfect

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks, enjoy this project ;)

[@Fb33EYE]

Best video I have seen on niches so far. This is something I might be able to do. Thank you !

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks, hopefully you gonna enjoy your future project ;)

[@adriancerzosimo3937]

Excellent video. Concise and easy to watch.

[@canisamator7937]

You make it look so easy! Thank you!

[@TalkYork]

That was very helpful- thank you! I want to do the same thing and thought about making a wooden box and slide it in the cut-out. Your idea is better; use sheet rock that is piece-by-piece built in the cut-out! Thank you!

[@MarekKubi]

Hey Stephen, it is such a nice feeling, when I can help someone with ideas. My method looks more natural and rigid I guess. Thank you for a subscription. I am on the road to get monetized, so every sub counts :) One day I gonna build a house, so hopefully, you can see, how it is built in Europe ;)

[@prisillaspace]

Very professional work! Thank you!

[@MrKhurramshahzaeb]

Excellent video

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks!

[@kingkelly44]

Whats the added paper in the corners for? Great vid!

[@MarekKubi]

To reduce cracks.

[@beesollom-yp1pp]

[@MarekKubi]

Thank you so much. Your comment is so motivating! Hopefully in far future you will see me building a proper house ;)

[@Losbass]

Great Job man!

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks, i like to work :)

[@totalhappiness6805]

Hey there awesome video!

[@totalhappiness6805]

By the way I think I am going to try this when I get time will let you know how it went.

[@MarekKubi]

Hey, thanks for commenting. I for sure wish to see your result from your work. In the next video i will hang one mirror and hooks in that place.

[@PhiloFery]

Where did you get the sheetrock liner stuff?

[@PhiloFery]

What is it called? and where do I get it?

[@MarekKubi]

Hey, i bought it from local construction shop named Espak. When you visit Estonia, you can call me, i show you where it is :D But i link you one USA youtuber, from who I learned something. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qabMmnqMnd5-Z8k

[@michael_peachey]

Whats the thing with the blade and the screw at about 3:00 all about?

[@MarekKubi]

Hey Michael. It was supporting the glued drywall. Otherwise it would just fall in to that gap.

[@AlexSWorlder]

Professional and nice project!

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks for the comment and a like :) I have a new short video about how i used these niches ;)

[@SimonaShine]

That was instructive! Great work and well done! I like perfection 👌

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks alot for your honest comment!

[@SimonaShine]

I never leave comments like this unless it's the truth! You have skills

[@RyanBrown01]

Excellent Work!!

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks for Excellent Comment!!

[@threecats6385]

Beautiful work. This helped me a lot.

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks, this makes me happy :)

[@DaddyBear3000]

Not a bad job at all. For skimming I would have used a quick-set filler, just because you can get multiple coats on in one day. But looks really clean and you did well to tape the joints.

[@MarekKubi]

Hey Karl! Thanks for a comment. I had enough time to complete that work, so i used usual filler. It is cheaper and easier to finish in my opinion :)

[@DaddyBear3000]

Marek Kubi I completely understand. If you aren’t pressured on time it’s better to use what you have than buy a whole different product. Great that you used the expanding foam as well, really simple addition to add a bit of strength.

[@MarekKubi]

Yeah dude, it is so enjoyable to do stuff like that. Kinda like therapy for me to create something with my hands :D. If i would do that work for earnings, then i am in hurry and looking for places to save on material and time. In my country no-one pay for quality. It is all about the price. Doing for myself i can make something really strong and long-lasting. I hate optimization actually :D

[@shaunehemphill3259]

Did you place the long 2x4s to another one in the wall or they are only attached to the top n bottom

[@MarekKubi]

I made a box for fastening drywall.

[@shaunehemphill3259]

@@MarekKubi I think I understand what you’re saying thanks

[@JoeAverage2006]

Hi, so the frame is only supported by screws attached to the drywall - was wondering if this is strong enough rather than being attached to other studs / going down to the floor?

[@MarekKubi]

Hi. Yes that is enough. I used the foam glue for some extra support. That way I dont need to use silicone in internal corners.

[@nowakobieta-t9m]

Hi Marek, thank You for sharing this video. Just one question, if I want to instal down light, I should put the wire first and put back the plasterboard on the top after, right?

[@MarekKubi]

Hey, yes you should then organize wires before frame building. Also, you need to know the light type since maybe you need a hole for the light. Maybe it is easier to do it before finishing.

[@nowakobieta-t9m]

@@MarekKubi Thank you very much

[@milZ1]

This was great! Thank you.

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks for this positive comment. Good feedback is helping my channel to grow and also is motivating me to make more videos with useful content.

[@juliopenagos7969]

Awesome video. What exactly did you use as glue? Is that some type of cement?

[@MarekKubi]

Hey, it was Weber JS. Plaster, specially made for that. It have some glue inside.

[@Weekbrownies]

how much weight can it hold?

[@MarekKubi]

A lot :D

[@Thehumbleguy]

Good job!

[@MarekKubi]

Paldies!

[@Thehumbleguy]

@@MarekKubi Latvietis? :D

[@MarekKubi]

Igaunijas ;)

[@Thehumbleguy]

@@MarekKubi Braluka :D Very nice video. I am doing a bathroom now and my fiance asked for shelves in wall. So this was really helpful even tho i have done a lot of construction in past. You should make some more vids. Keep the grind. One day you might be able to make some money off it :)

[@MarekKubi]

Paldies for motivation. I like to do that kind of work for myself. In next video i am going to talk about new house build on a budget. Gonna be my first fully theoretical video. Lets see, maybe audience will appreciate my knowledge and i can get some traffic on my channel. Anyway it would be supercool, if in long run i can turn hobby to income :).

[@shaunehemphill3259]

What you use to build the frame 2x4s?

[@MarekKubi]

Hey, I dont remember, I used the frame from old door, which I changed.

[@jasonh6543]

Awsome

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks, hope you can now make similar stuff with your wall ;)

[@jasonh6543]

@@MarekKubi it’s is a big help that’s for sure thankyou

[@rawmy-pcgameplays555]

nice vid

[@MarekKubi]

Thanks.

[@astralstudio]

good!

[@lpcwork]

Silly question but was that just normal paper cut to shape for the joints within the niche ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5WkZZ9rr9aXhbs

[@MarekKubi]

Hei Leigh. No, it is a special paper in a roll for that purpose. Usual paper is too thin, so it will brake when get water. On outer corner paper there are steel inside for strength.

[@stephenmcgeown]

@@MarekKubi Hi Marek, great video - definitely the best on this subject. Regarding the special papers for the inside and outside corners, can you tell me the names of these products, including the steel-lined ones? I am in the USA so it won't be the same brand as you have in Estonia but if there is a generic name, that would be good. Thanks again for your awesome video :-)

[@curtis5809]

No corner bead?

[@nooneyouneedtoknow8360]

The corner bead was at 4:50. He showed cutting it at 3:40.
