How to Make Pegboard Shelves // Easy and Quick Project

[@slimkt]

I’m always astonished how gorgeous you manage to make your projects look without sacrificing functionality/usability. Also, props to those shots of Porto, they’re so beautiful, it makes me want to move there!

[@Borsch_TV]

I love very much city ​​views of Porto before you start making anything. This is amazing!!! And your project is very simple and stylish but you have done so much work!

[@GetHandsDirty]

Thank you for your appreciation, Anastasia! :)

[@desideologia]

Digo o mesmo a respeito das imagens de Porto, mas em Português. Gostei especialmente de "A Pérola do Bolhão", nome inusitado, decoração que exala tradição. Aparência centenária mas parece que foi inaugurada ontem. Lembra alguns comércios da minha infância em São Paulo. Saudações do Brasil.

[@JENNISWISS]

Борщ TV yes💪😌

[@npknscrb]

Борщ TV I was just thinking the same.

[@SR-qg7hw]

Борщ TV me, too! I live in Porto for a yr and a half from July’88 - Jan ‘90 and always wanted to go back. Then I found this channel a month or so ago and love how she starts each video with different views of the city. Then getting to watch her skills is better than any movie I’ve ever seen. Well maybe with the exception of Shrek!

[@mog-gyveroneill2500]

I used to live in São João Do Estoril, and really miss Portugal in general. I have visited several times, but always loath to leave!! 😁 Thank you for the great tutorial of this peg board..I feel semi confident I can do it, as I made a composite board one last year without too much swearing.. 😁

[@pierrec1590]

Because your holes are so precise, you could even glue the shelf on the peg, after flattening the portion that touches the shelf. Very classy work, I love it.

[@globaband919]

Please continue making these video they provide me with plenty of inspiration for my projects.

[@802Leith]

I made a peg board like this for my kids apartment last year, every one who see's it loves it !

[@mishtchka]

Your style is just awesome! Projects, tools, materials, picture, sound, your voice over it - all of it work perfect together.

[@mishtchka]

And intros! Love it.

[@mishtchka]

And the black shirt is cool too! I have the very similar one. :)

[@NihalShah]

This modular shelf is beautiful! Can't wait to make it.

[@gregthorne4292]

Always a good day when there's a new GHD video!

[@SJtoobsox]

Beautiful video..got some great ideas thank you from the USA

[@Alexpires1986]

This is one of the most incredible channels on youtube!!!!!!!!!!! I Just love your work

[@finn127]

Friendly tip: since you are using your bench hook with the pull saw, you could move the backer board a bit towards the middle. Should make it easier with the pull saw, and still let you use it with a western saw. And nice pegboard!

[@uniquegeek2708]

I saw someone on another channel who had a ready-made jig that attaches to a freehand drill. It essentially makes it into a drill press. I'm going to have to find one!

[@veronicarar8227]

I love you show parts of Porto in each video !

[@ManCrafting]

I like the laser on your miter saw. It shows the lost wood which is actually better than a single line. Nice project.

[@LuisSilva-tq9sj]

ManCraftingTM - I was thinking the same. Did you get the brand and model of the saw??

[@kf4ung]

Simple, clean and brilliantly executed. Great work, and that sunset is lovely.

[@SpecialWorks]

Class project! The simple design makes it modern and suitable in every home. Great video!

[@metaspencer]

A simple project! Cool to see the design come together, and I could see a lot of people going for it on this one

[@clovermark39]

Such a great idea. I’ve got a similar thing using metal and just use wire to hold things in place. Cool.

[@vanesam3058]

Love you work space and method. Very relaxing to watch and learn.

[@FranksDIY]

Very nice . Love the ability to move them around as you like

[@cassandragrayes6149]

Love this. Can you provide step by step instructions within the description?

[@YuraKvadrat132]

For a long time there were no your videos. I missed them so much. A good idea.

[@homebodyhero4602]

very easy, very functional I hope I can make the kinds of things you make someday

[@fraensemeier-fotografie]

Looks great!! Altough three years old, maybe you can answer the following: what kind of paint are you using, and are you happy with it? can you use normal wall paint? Or should it be varnish or lacquer? Wall paint at least is quite cheap, so it would be great! Cheers, Peter

[@GetHandsDirty]

Hi Peter, this was a commission so I don’t really know how well it is holding by now. I believe that wall paint will work fine honestly. But applying a clear waterbased varnish on top would make it a lot more scratch resistant. We have some paints around here that are meant for both walls and wood, maybe you can find something like that in your area. Even if it isn’t meant for wood…it should still stick to the wood :) my most recent furniture build was painted with wall flat black paint. It works. Not an amazing option but it works.

[@fraensemeier-fotografie]

@@GetHandsDirty thanks so much :). All the best for you! Cheers, Peter

[@pierremonico5002]

Very cool you made it! I saw this in a designer shop a few weeks back but it was super expensive so I was thinking of making it myself :)

[@ivanandreev5095]

Отлично вышло ! Great desk!

[@ChazEvansdale]

I like simple, functional, and modular. Another win/win project you got there. :)

[@phenomenal_woman]

Thanks a lot, now I want this type of pegboard.

[@ShaggyCrew87]

Thanks for the Porto images. Cool city!!!. The project excellent!!

[@darbypea2223]

Holy crap you have the most beautiful skyline views from your workshop.

[@themaconeau]

Another option is to level the pegs up to the depth of the pegboard and doesn't need a piece of wood to hold the shelf in place. You could even go another level deeper and make a slight indentation on the underside of the shelf where the peg will sit with your router and a flat bit. Alternatively, leave the pegs round as is and make a rounded indentation on the underside of the shelf, where the pegs would sit on the shelf matching the radius of the pegs. So, the peg kinda sits a fraction INTO the shelf itself. You could even make pegboard caddies for your workbench area. ;) It is a great idea with heaps of room for expansion and finessing if need be.

[@jakeouvina9543]

Nice detail to add a french cleat! That way the pegs can go deeper to provide more support when hanging heavy things. But how do you avoid the lower part of the board from swinging? Would you add a strip with the same thickness of the cleat?

[@reforzar]

I loved the night miter saw shots.

[@TriSutrisnowapu]

Brian Prusa yeah me too..

[@thistooiseds3215]

Just what I was looking for. Thank you.

[@marcelovalongo7205]

Great job. Thanks for the idea. Now I know what to do in my garage

[@LetsPrepTogether]

Very cool! I really like the minimalist design

[@EzioPoi]

It really looks very simple and still very cool! Nice! I want to try make it DIY

[@MLOOTGIIVSATTIEXD]

I love the look of it! I’m just getting into making things, and recently made a succulent planter box for a wall, I think I could make something like this for my courtyard! Awesome video, always look forward to seeing more from you! 👌🏽

[@boltup5566]

Any suggestions on making this strong enough for heavier objects like large books or even a TV? Also, could you still get a french cleat to work with the top of the pegboard flush with a ceiling?

[@clockmaister]

Thanks for showing me the french cleat. Great hang.

[@baddrivers4932]

Like the tools you have! Of course the result is the best one!

[@orangeduc3129]

Thanks please for your explanation of the way to hang the shelves. Please what bit (name and size)did you use to drill the french cleet plywood?

[@nataliepetcoff5865]

instant subscriber after first video. love your editing, love the tutorial most of all! I learned so much. Can't wait to try this!

[@lunade13]

Excellent project, I definitely want to try it out! And by the way love the footage of Porto.

[@jus6681]

Great video and project Cris! Just heard about you from an old episode of Modern Maker Podcast. I'm late to the game on the online maker community but I'm loving every bit of it! Keep up the great work!

[@astrowave5702]

so clean , so nice !! can you make a shelf that transforms to a small desk ?

[@WoodWorkLIFE]

Great project! I wish you could've made it to workbenchcon last weekend. I would've loved to have met you.

[@rudiyang7790]

Oh man.. Your tools... I love it..

[@endraandiantono6016]

Hi I love your videos. I am from Indonesia. Because your video inspires funiture making

[@marcelagomez8052]

Loooving every piece and every video!! You are awsome

[@JohnMadeit]

looks nice, good idea with the hole jig. :)

[@rcomuzzi]

easy and fantastic! greetings from Argentina

[@tomsdreamshopworx]

Cool projects! The only thing I missed (maybe you didn't film it) was a spacer block on the back at the bottom the same thickness as the french cleat, so it does not lean back against the wall.

[@GetHandsDirty]

I haven't put one and I get your point but I don't think this will tilt towards the wall because the french cleat locks the vertically, doesn't it? The angle can't be broken, so the object will always be hung parallel to the wall. That's what makes sense in my head.

[@mowcius]

With the weight of the unit and the items on it, it won't hang vertically without a spacer. See Frank's video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3TSXmZrhJiFntE If the unit didn't angle enough into the wall to touch it, then it would also end up super bouncy.

[@NataschaYT]

Thanks so much for the reference video, I didn't understand the french cleat and the spacer you were talking about. Now I want to try this method of hanging a board :)

[@randythomas5475]

What kind of plywood do you normally use ? It looks so perfect where it is layered

[@FlorentPlacide]

For everybody : don't forget to add a piece of wood of the same thickness as the French cleat at the bottom of the panel, in order to make the whole thing straight, otherwise it will lean.

[@vitornevesribeiro4288]

Nice work. I know that you're living in Portugal, but are you portuguese? I'm from Brazil and I love the way you make your creations.

[@vitornevesribeiro4288]

But the way, your english is perfect.

[@daciasdiy1861]

Wow i really love your design best !

[@Cactusworkshopchannel]

niceeee! the little pieces are a cool idea! I'll make a couple so i don't roll out of my bed

[@craftedworkshop]

First! Or, almost, hah. Mike from Modern Builds are sitting here watching your video, looks great! Totally want to build something like this!

[@GetHandsDirty]

Wohooo awesome! Big hug to both you guys, hope we can meet soon! :D

[@craftedworkshop]

Me too, wish I was going to Makers Central!

[@ManCrafting]

I suppose that will be a challenge this year. You'll have a new delivery by then.

[@GuilhermeSilva-rp2it]

Muito maneiro, especialmente 7:25 - belo visual da Torre dos Clérigos...

[@venefica_tenebrae]

Muito bom sistema, simples e muito funcional, abraço do sul, tenho saudades do Porto linda cidade.

[@HelloNotMe9999]

Hello! Awesome project. Thanks. Could you provide a link to the chip saw with lasers on both sides of the blade?

[@ruiteixeira9802]

Cool project, Cristiana!

[@q8iman]

Get Hands Dirty good luck everything you do comes back to you

[@SPCoulson]

You know how you put the French cleat at the top, does it need an additional support at the bottom to space it off the wall the same depth ?

[@jarekr5784]

You're so inspiring.

[@JENNISWISS]

I like your videos! always very good content and simple solutions. you are dressed very nicely today! the white dots are good for you😌🍀👍

[@GetHandsDirty]

Awww so sweet, thanks jenni :)

Me encanto super creativo y flexible. Gracias por compartir!!

[@EmilBrikha]

You need to sell this to IKEA :)

[@MADZIA0606]

*imaginatively and practically* 😉👍

[@TriSutrisnowapu]

Your workshop is indoor and airconditioned? Is it a closed room? How did you do it? Do you have any reference on dust management in indoor airconditioned workshop?

[@guaiamum]

Really nice channel! Any tips on buying cheap wood here in Porto?

[@orangeduc3129]

Greetings from Ghana

[@TheLovelyMissBeans]

I really like this. Although, I don't think I would have painted the inside of the holes if it were for me.

[@brainfornothing]

Interesting idea. Thanks for sharing !

[@alpere.3756]

Thanks for awesome content. Please do a feat with Laura Kampf, that would be amazing to watch.

[@diegomartinez3836]

Great for the shop or if you have an office in your shop

[@sergitorero]

Hello cris! What brand is the mask you use?

[@annaraw1193]

[@AndreasLseth]

Hey, What kind of square are you using? it looks so precise.

[@JakeThompson]

Looks good Cris!!

[@adampodolnik2048]

I am planning to do something similar! Will watch soon, hope I'll find some useful tips:-)

[@Mikhandmaker]

Great look 👌

[@GeorgeLolas]

This is an amazing idea and something I can do! Thank you for the incredible videos :)

[@FredMcIntyre]

Really cool Cris! 👍👊

[@bloomg4275]

Is it okay not to put paint primer before coating with paint?

[@ojohnnyo]

Love to watch you do your trade

[@nkolchenko]

These Dexter clamps.. what would be your opinion on Dexter tools? Are you using anything except these clamps? :-)
