Few post down she replied. 1. Put rubber feet on bottom.2 she added short shelve to bottom. It still does not make sense. I would drill holes on each leg and add a rope knotted at each end .at hole.

Hi sorry I don’t want to sound rude but I’m trying to make this in your measurements are different in the beginning of the video then they are the ones you’re talking about so I’m kind of confused on the wood links that I need
Debbie Clark Hi Debbie, no problem at all so here is my cut list, keep in mind you can totally change it if you want something bigger or smaller 😊 Shelves - Using the 1x8 I cut - 11 1/2” long - 16 1/4” long - 20” long Side pieces (using 1x2) - - 4 at 25 1/2” long (cut at a 20 degree angle) Shelf Supports (using 1x2) - - 6 at 7 1/4” long
How were you able to slide in the three 1x8 in. shelves into a 7 1/4 in. gap. I believe, (and please correct me if I'm wrong) you meant to say you cut the six shelf supports at 8 1/4 in. long. Which would give you a 1/4 in. of play when sliding in the 1x8 in. shelves into the shelf supports.
This was so long ago I don’t remember. I used very inexpensive wood so it was definitely on the cheaper side. I hope to make one again soon with a high quality wood to compare.
Thank you for the reply. I’m a bit confused. Would you clarify the measurements? When I add up how many inches for the legs and supports, it adds to more than 144” long (if buying the 1x2x12ft). Legs - 25.5” x 4 = 102” Supports - 7.25 x 6 = 43.25” Total = 145.5” Am I doing something wrong and overthinking it?
Smiles-Behind-Lupus that’s a great question. I’m guessing it’ll hold around 30. If you want it to hold more you can always make the shelves a little longer. 😊
Alexis amaral you will want 1 - 1x8 8ft long, 2 - 1x2’s 12ft long, and 4 small hinges. Please let me know if I can help with anything else. Happy building 😊
Alexis amaral good question. I measured from the top of each support board on both sides at 7in, 14in, and 21in. Then drew a line connecting them so I knew right where the bottom of my shelf support should sit to hold the shelf level.
Jessa Quibol mine were 25 1/2” but you can really do any size. Please let me know if you have any more questions. I’ll try to put this on my blog with more details soon.
Donald Cone I put rubber feet on the bottoms of the legs and as an after thought added small 1” boards on the bottom of the lowest shelf to keep the legs from sliding out. Unfortunately I thought of this after the video 🤦♀️
@@AroundtheHouse I put the little wood pieces under the bottom board too. Maybe add that in a pinned comment or in the description box? I made it two yrs ago and it has been a favorite and been borrowed by quite a few friends as well. I use it for my coffee mugs at Christmas at my coffee/cocoa bar!
Leslee Tello set-up mine is 23 3/4in tall, the bottom of the base sits 21 1/4in wide, 9in deep. Please let me know if you were looking for other measurements
OMW.. you make it look so simple. .Love this cupcake stand.
I am definitely making one of these for my big birthday party!
Love it, you totally should Kelly. Thanks for the comment 😊
I’m so glad that you’re doing this because I’ve been wanting to make one but I just it all together to do it . 😊❤️
Yay, you should definitely make one. Please let me know how it goes 😊
@@AroundtheHouse I sure will sweetie thank you ❤️
This was amazing and you made it look so simple lol Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Great job and what a fantastic helper!
Great idea for buns, I've subbed to your channel
Thanks
Tim from Wood4nothing
Thanks Tim
I'm totally making one of these!
We have this all cut out and ready to go… what keeps the legs from sliding “open”?

I want to make. I see that the short 1x2 that hold trays were set at a slight angle. How much of an angle?

Debbie Clark Hi Debbie, no problem at all so here is my cut list, keep in mind you can totally change it if you want something bigger or smaller 😊
Shelves -
Using the 1x8 I cut
- 11 1/2” long
- 16 1/4” long
- 20” long
Side pieces (using 1x2) -
- 4 at 25 1/2” long (cut at a 20 degree angle)
Shelf Supports (using 1x2) -
- 6 at 7 1/4” long

How many cupcakes did this hold?
I had 16 on it but you could definitely fit more
How much did spend on the materials
This was so long ago I don’t remember. I used very inexpensive wood so it was definitely on the cheaper side. I hope to make one again soon with a high quality wood to compare.
Is there a way to make this without having to do 20 degree cuts? I just want Home Depot to cut all the wood for me.
You totally could and it would be just as strong. I just did it to give it a more clean look. 😀

Just what i needed. Great job and great idea
Al St Aubin yay! Let me know how it goes.
great stand cakes look great too
I been looking for this... What is the angle you use on the ladder part??
Let me dig it out and check because I do t remember 😀
👌
Great video how many cupcakes does it hold ?
Smiles-Behind-Lupus that’s a great question. I’m guessing it’ll hold around 30. If you want it to hold more you can always make the shelves a little longer. 😊
What would i need if i wanted to make 2 off these ?
Alexis amaral you will want 1 - 1x8 8ft long, 2 - 1x2’s 12ft long, and 4 small hinges. Please let me know if I can help with anything else. Happy building 😊
What measurement did you use for the shelf boards to be leveled ?
Alexis amaral good question. I measured from the top of each support board on both sides at 7in, 14in, and 21in. Then drew a line connecting them so I knew right where the bottom of my shelf support should sit to hold the shelf level.
That boy is sure a ham! Love the video!
How long the legs?

what keeps it from sliding open?

@@AroundtheHouse at wat degree did u put the the 71/4 pieces on to hold shelves
Can you ship one to me?
If I made things to sell I totally would. 😊 I usually just make things once so I can create new content.
