Beginners Shelf

Project by Boon posted 684 days ago 390 views 0 times favorited 16 comments Add to Favorites Watch

On a whim today I went to Lowes to check my schedule next week and decided to grab a 6ft piece of pine to make a shelf. It is 4 feet long and I made 2 brackets out of the left over 2ft and cut them out on a bandsaw and mitersaw. And just for funsies I put a v-groove on it with my router. It’s all glued except for the screws in the wall. It’s nothing special but I thought it was time I chime in on here with something I made :)

You work at Lowes? I’d never get my paycheck to the bank.

Looks like a perfectly good shelf to me!

Once you start you get hooked.

Good job.

Shelf brackets are where I started out many years ago. Be careful, this can be addicting. Nice job.

Hey thanks for all the support, it’s really cool that newbies have a place to go online and not get treated bad for being new. I’ve been online since I was ten years old, and I hated being new in every place I’ve ever been and this is by far the best place ever for me.
