The Super Easy TV Stand - DIY Project

[@Bears850623]

I have zero carpentry experience. Don’t even know where to start. What to buy. The tools. Nothing. But I want to teach myself this trade along with plumbing to teach my son one day and this video gave me confidence to even think to start doing it. Thank you for your thoroughness and your channel

[@kaciesonya6363]

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection kzbin.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

[@bertdavis9626]

This was exactly what I’ve been looking for since the prices for large screen tv stands is outrageous. Us folks with only basic carpenter skills are very appreciative.

[@EvilSammy]

I did this while laid off last year. Followed all instructions exactly, and the result is amazing and has garnered many compliments.

[@sharonwilliams5560]

This is unbelievably perfect. I drew out what I wanted, and looked for a DIY and here it is. Thank you

[@MrNickillar]

I don't have even a lick of woodworking skills, but I decided to try it out. It came out better than I imagined! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@ZeeButsog]

Wow, just like you said simple and easy. This is the best tv stand cabinet DIY ever!!! A lot of DIY videos I’ve seen and most of them are complicated and yet they say on their video easy...but there not. This DIY VIDEO is the best!!! Thanks for sharing this

[@rey11able]

This is so much more value for money than a gas furnace. Very economical, very easy to use.

[@tonyforde2554]

Thanks for the great video. It was a pretty easy build for a guy with rather limited skills. I did have a few snags. Most of the boards were not true so I had to add adjustable appliance legs to level it. I had to have the boards cut at the store as my miter saw is not the sliding type. I did not notice that he did not cut 2 of the 2x10 boards to my requested length, so I ended up with 2 at 48 inches and 2 at 47 3/4 inches. I improvised and made it work. I might suggest using a ratchet instead of the stubby screwdriver to attach the pedestal to the base. That made it quite a bit easier. Thanks again

[@danalaniz7314]

Really nice build and especially appreciate how clear and concise the instructions are. I bet that sucker is heavy!

[@jestaman3356]

Just finished making it. First woodworking project I’ve ever done in my life. I must say, the video makes it look so easy, but beware it is very time consuming and can have many obstacles a beginner doesn’t think of. Make sure you pick out very flat wood, because one of my pieces was slightly curved and to the naked eye I didn’t pick it up, so I had to figure out how to level the wood. Overall, simple design and anybody can do it if they have patience. Thanks for the video!

[@flareeyt2295]

how much did the total come too

[@jestaman3356]

@@flareeyt2295 Wood was about $50 for me, rest of the supplies was probably around $30 or so (I have a lot of left over supplies though for other projects now). I'd say depending on what you need between $60-$90 total. That's a really rough estimate!

[@IRL_Vibez]

I literally just got done building this. It was a great, and quick project! Thanks for the guidance and idea!

[@IRL_Vibez]

I’m a subscriber for life!!

[@matthewklitzke2970]

Thank you for making this! I’m currently looking to remodel my room. I tried looking online for a good stand, but they were all too expensive for me. This looks spectacular and it has that special quality in that you made it yourself. Can’t wait to make this, keep up the good work!

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks! We use standard pine...good luck with the build!

[@ruralheroes4183]

same here dude

[@rspivey53]

I like your channel. I'm going to try to start a wood shop. You have good ideas and the best thing is you give step by step instructions. Thank you from Columbus Ohio

[@danstetson6053]

Love your work you make it so easy to follow and it’s great how you have everything laid out all the materials and measurements awesome!

[@proverbs2522]

Will be making for our stand so we'll see. Color is not the color I want but still. And another shelf on top for books and DVDs so my spouse can keep his tv hanging on the wall. Good job and thanks for all the info I had screenshot through it. Thank you for posting this. Thumbs up

[@BringBackAuntJemima]

Well done, a tip for drilling holes to a certain depth: put a piece of tape on the bit to mark exactly how deep you need to drill the holes. Hope you see this!

[@ronaldcopeland3679]

I just finished this project, turned out beautifully. Thank you for making these videos!

[@ryanrude6472]

Roughly how much dod all the materials cost you? If you dont mind me asking

[@laserfalcon]

Nice project, ten times stronger and much more durable and well built then the cheap crap you see in many stores

[@thaliapompeu8145]

LaserFalcon

[@supersayainjesus7204]

I doubt this will last much longer than the cheap stuff. Screws don't offer good strength and durability. It does look better though.

[@trieucao2328]

Cheers for this, been searching for "woodworking plans high chair" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Yiyli Yeyavid Booster - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my m8 got amazing results with it.

[@supersayainjesus7204]

@Samuel Sutton Please point me to where I said anything about nails. . .

[@tomh1895]

Excellent! Made it in a weekend, mission oak stain is really nice, very strong and decently heavy. absolutely love it in the bedroom.. cost me $90 for everything at lowes- mostly the lumber and 4 black iron pipe flanges are $25

[@txvetdan1700]

found the flanges on amazon for a set of 10 for 11.99 ….. I read this and looked around before spending 25.00 for a few of them. Thanks for sharing

[@xomo7944]

Yay!!!! I made the industrial shelf unit but with 6 shelves as a bookcase and now I can make this to match!!! Super excited! THANK YOU!!!!!

[@laynesmith1439]

Saw this video, went to home depot, bought everything went home and built it and I couldn't have been happier with the out come!

[@alexmontenegro9489]

Layne Smith about how much was everything?

[@tomjens2046]

how long it tok to build?

[@zappadrew7749]

Same... went to Home Depot.... they’ll even cut the wood for ya at no cost. Bought everything except the stain and poly. Cost me $108... with the stain and poly would’ve been about $120. The wood was about $53. The floor flanges were about $25. Two boxes of screws almost $20. And the two pipes were like $8 total. With the wood already cut to the sizes needed, you can put the whole thing together in roughly an hour.

[@PlantBasedPachyderm]

Watched at 2x speed. Much better. Even the song is better at 2x! Good looking work!

[@KetziahTorah]

Built mine yesterday! I did a couple of modifications. Came out beautifully!

[@TheRehabLife]

Awesome, glad it turned well!

[@KetziahTorah]

I look forward to watching more building from you! I've subscribed!

[@msjoy2005]

Cassandra Bowens what did you do to it?

[@godsun316]

You're the man!!! I watched this then went to home depot and got everything. Came out great!

[@TheRehabLife]

Awesome! Glad to hear it turned out well...

[@nickbarnella3451]

How much did the parts cost?

[@morgjg2004]

Love all your builds I actually did one of the coffee tables came out more sturdy & cheaper than the one I had. This TV stand will definitely be my next build. Keep it up you guys are awesome

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks!

[@josenewtoncostacosta8079]

Wow very good!!! Dear friend, very easy to make, tomorrow I start making one.💖👏👏👏👏

[@hyfyre8960]

Love the stand. Made it for my wife for an anniversary gift thanks much!!!

[@TheRehabLife]

Awesome, glad it worked out well!

[@bostonpops33]

Congrats on the sex.

[@Lourelasagero]

Love this video especially for a beginner like me, it really helps a lot from choosing a size of wood , screws etc. And this piece looks very simple to make and yet very beautiful . ❤️❤️❤️

[@RetiredTony]

WELL DONE...moving to a new place in San Diego with my son and im gonna build alot of stuff i learned from you guys. Thank you for sharing

[@blackheartAA]

Me gustan sus proyectos porque siento que es algo que de verdad podría hacer yo: sin muchas complicaciones y sin demasiada tecnología, pero un excelente trabajo. Gracias y saludos desde México

[@Rebel1280]

going to put it on some casters like your last project and it will give it a more industrial feel, really dig yalls ideas.

[@TheRehabLife]

Oh cool, that would look awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@onewaytosavetheday]

This looks so excellent. It inspired me to come up with a simple industrial side shelf to store my consoles, games, and dvds to go alongside it.

[@livandcompany]

Best tutorial I've ever seen.

[@J_ay_Z]

came out great, easy to make slight variations as well like different height or wider boards to create a lip

[@fightingdreamers5599]

Nice building concept. Id scrap the pine wood and use a stronger wood for furniture building. Yes, pine can be used but not this kind to build furniture. There are many kinds of wood such as walnut, white and red oak, cedar, spanish elm etc that will give a more refine finish. Also, a nice color that could compliment the tv stand would be white oil paint etc.

[@jasonfehr9175]

2x12s can be fairly pricy and a lot of places will only sell you 16ft pieces, the metal pipe for the top shelf is cheap but the flanges can cost up to $5 ea. Other than that it’s pretty cheap to make and I got it built and stained in about an hour and a half

[@SweredaLife]

My husband made this for me for my birthday! And i love it! Thanks for posting the video!

[@TheRehabLife]

Glad you like it!

Terima kasih atas ilmunya (Indonesian)

Just can't get enough of you guys, Both you all rock!! & little doggie too. Thanks for sharing this easy project.

[@lamiabibi1349]

c'est fabuleux ce que vous faites tout les deux, j'adore

[@ahmedkanja1410]

awesome. The fact that you gave the measurements, thanks

[@2112andy]

Hey thanks for making this video! I made a table that you made, and it turned out AWESOME! Going to make this next!

[@nickwilliams1065]

At last!!! A video that shows you how to build something useful, with out some computer generated voice over or some boring old lectures from some industrial unit/workshop owner kitted out with tens of thousands pounds/dollars worth of machines. Most of us have access to a chop saw and a drill and would be able to build some thing like the unit you just built. Now I am going to check out the rest of your videos see what other gems you have hidden away. Thank you keep up the good work.

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks so much! Our goal was to make DIY accessible without having every expensive tool in the book. Hope you enjoy the rest of our channel!

[@cliffordmanohar9553]

Simple and neat, perfect for a TV stand. Thank you very much!

[@jeanellis1751]

BEAUTIFUL WORK AND STAND!

[@RJ-rm4vw]

Wow! very nice tv stand i like it..good job you are so talented.

[@87KING13]

Great video! Very clear and concise.

[@skymusic29]

I like it, very nice. I think I would add a 5" board in between at the rear and hide the wire. Awesome job.

[@dcpickles1]

Very nice video, but I'm confused. If you put two of the 2" x 8" x 48" right next to each other, wouldn't those combine to be 16" wide? How come those vertical pieces are only 14 1/2" long then? Wouldn't they need to be cut 16" long to be flush on the ends?

[@subxeroarcher]

The dimensions of the lumber aren't quite what they say. 2x8 is the nominal dimension but it is actually 7.25 inches wide.

[@patriciamanriquez6059]

Love it. So easy. Thanks for making the videos so easy

[@NicoleBest]

I am in the process of making it. All pieces cut and ready to go, tomorrow. Can't wait to finish. Thank you for posting. :-)

[@AB-nu5we]

Doug Fir for the big base. Good tough stuff. Nice project.

[@bennedettocracolici5058]

Thank you for the great job you did. I also wanted to ask you what grid of sand paper should I use. Thank you again.

[@123busaboy]

Awesome job, I am going to make this next week and send you pictures!

[@corneleousworthington4566]

Thank you so much for posting this! Just built mine (without the riser top), and it is looking great in my living room, supporting a 55" flatpanel TV. Awesome stuff!

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks!

[@tomjens2046]

how long it took?

[@corneleousworthington4566]

tom jens maybe a couple days including the finish.

[@tomjens2046]

@@corneleousworthington4566 wow, I assumed this was something like 4 hour build. My spirits are down :)

[@corneleousworthington4566]

tom jens well, I’m admittedly slow with finishing... literally a couple hours to build it unfinished. For me, I pre stained, stained, and polyurethaned 3 coats. Each takes time to dry, and there’s sanding in there too- that’s why it took me so long. Build one, you’ll love it!

[@theronsjogren5029]

Just finished mine. Turned out amazing

[@Joy-ru3wy]

Could I double this for an extra long media center?

[@llldAdAlll]

I just finish up mine i went for bigger dimensions since i had to fit a 55 inch tv i did a 6f wide and the top part 5 ft .. i wish i could post a picture . Thanks for your ideas 👍🏼👍🏼🎉

[@KatieMQ]

Both of you are amazing! I was wondering if you could show how to make a desk. I made the rustic coffee table and I would love to make a desk that would match with it.

[@Chloe.McNeill]

Looking for a different material to use to attach the top shelf (not as industrial of a style)!! Any suggestions??

[@PProgress28]

Building this as we speak. Using an Ebony stain and clear gloss minwax poly. Looks nice. Gonna do my second coat tomorrow morning and finish it up tomorrow afternoon!

[@TheRehabLife]

Sounds like you're about done, thanks for watching and enjoy the new stand!

[@PProgress28]

We love it. My wife wants a king sized bed frame now. Lol

[@annamassa4770]

Phil Green how much did the material cost?

[@ryanhardy3133]

Thank you for a great video! What type of wood did you use for this project?

[@jimmytrue1181]

excellence idea ,cheap, easy, strong and last longer. much better then buy one at the ikea . thanks

[@cesarconh895]

Cool and simple build, excellent. Thumbs up for this one

[@Jkcreswell]

I used to have one of those cheap TV stands from Wal-Mart. My furbaby kept peeing on the edge of it and it started to crumble. This is THE BEST tutorial! I built this on a Saturday morning. The only thing different I did was I added pipes and flanges to the bottom for legs. Ya'll are awesome!

[@michelefiore2705]

J'adore ce que vous faites !! Pour moi c'est un vrais plaisir de regardé vos vidéo

[@SDMPoahway]

I want to use this as a tv stand for my 65" TV. Will those two pipes be enough to hold it. Thats all I need to complete the task.

[@sxxkkllmmmclean7894]

Great video I'm going to build this for a 75" tv with the feet on the top put a shelf in the middle. Thanks!!

[@nicksanches64]

I built this today, made it a little bigger but same idea, great video

[@TheRehabLife]

Awesome, glad it turned out well!

[@eesinhart]

What type of wood do you use and where do you buy it from?

[@williamgould2128]

Can anyone give me tips about how much of the stain and poly should use? whole can? or just until the whole thing has one nice even coating?

[@andrewmarziliano1003]

Want to make this. What the biggest size TV anyone has on it?

[@carlosalvarado6372]

Hi i'm from México, congratulations You are awesome! here in Mexico i have not been able to get winwax wood finish honey 272, what other color is similar?

[@TheRehabLife]

Hola, muchas gracias! I would day Early American is fairly similar. Another good, lighter option is Summer Oak. Hope you can find one of those!

[@bonniebrickley6544]

Great. Simple and well done thank you

[@mr.chavez3093]

This was an awesome video. I would personally prefer to use bolts, washers, and nuts to instead of the nails to hold that together. (At least for the top shelf). I would not want bolts to show through the bottom and scratch my hardware. I am a DiYer but never have attempted woodworking just yet. By the way, I like the fact that your significant other builds the shoe (Laughs) rack; girls gotta have their shoes and we have to have our TV stand. My game systems and receiver would be a great contrast to that style. Time to share these vids with my wife and start planning our builds. Liked and SUBSCRIBED!!! THANKS!

[@Patacon_Gang]

DONE ! Look so nice on my cinema room 🤜🏻🤛🏻

[@TheRehabLife]

He must have pre drill the holes with countersink bits and did not show in the video.

[@orbeuniversity]

It is not easy to find 2x12 boards? Any suggestions as to what can be used or changed instead of a 2x12? I am assuming all of these are regular spruce (SPF) type of wood. Is this correct? Thank you for your videos.

[@lauriemayforbes6393]

What size tv would this hold?

this is GREAT. planning on making this and adding wheels. i love all of your projects. would u consider adding the total cost it took to make these projects?

[@gldngrrrl5574]

[@melissacapps657]

Can somebody tell me approximately how much is spent in supplies ( wood, stain, etc..) ?

Nice video and I appreciate you taking the time to make and share. Personally I like to hear from the people and just having music is not the best experience for me.

[@joicejoseph3338]

Can we use SPF wood for this project? I am not able to find pine wood at local stores here, hence the question. Also, Thank you for this amazing video. Exactly what I’ve been looking for.

[@TheRehabLife]

Yeah, that or pretty much the wood of your choice should be totally fine. Thanks for watching and good luck with the build!
