4:35 I almost spit out my Mountain Dew 😂 ILTMS HQ is really coming together and looking great! I definitely need to make a trip there soon to see it in person.
Just want to thank Bob for showing your mistakes, too many UA-cam makers don't do this and make you feel all your projects should run smoothly. Showing when something messes up whether it be under your control or not gives the viewer more confidence that what they are doing in their own projects is on the right path.
I love that this idea is highly modular. You're not building a single cabinet that will get full or not have the right space, you're building a scalable display that can grow and move as needed as your collection changes. Thanks for sharing!
I've been thinking of doing a display wall, and I've been planning a big built in. But this fits my style a lot better, and allows me to add objects over time instead hoping it will fit a built in. Thanks for the idea!
The Fix this build that Shout outs 🤣👍. Some other UA-camr have made tests for the strongest Wood joint. Boxes with mitred Joints are surprisingly strong! They came out as second strongest connection.
Bob and the team awesome job. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.
Another great piece of advice for stuff like this paint the boxes the same color as the wall its going on makes the items pop and your eyes aren't distracted by the difference between the wood and the wall
I have the perfect wall for something like this. Looking to make a ton of props that will need displayed and this method reminds me of comic book panels. Right up my alley.
Hola! 🖐Really cool project! I especially appreciate you mentioning options for those that may not have a shop full of tools. No reason to hold back. Take care and have a good one, Adios!👊
Thank you so much for considering those of us who might not have the most sophisticated of tools, I really appreciate that! I've been wanting to find a way to display my cosplay props and pieces in my basement, but I hadn't come across any aesthetics that I liked---until now, of course! Very helpful tutorial Bob!
I love that you are starting to add some vfx. Not necessary to be entertaining since your builds speak for themselves but I love the craftsmanship being put into the video as well. Adding some clean plates and music timing with the b-roll was awesome.
Bob I’d love to see a video for apartment/temporary builds. Something like temporary storage/display. Little things for smaller stuff spaces. Stuff like that. Just an idea! Love the content, keep up the great work team!
Great video. Love the various ideas on how to build stuff. I’ll have to put some together with lights for my minis. Also, mostly rhetorical, but and I’m too lazy to search, but a video in pocket holes would be a great idea. If you don’t have one.
8 years ago (WOW) I did a Maker 101 video on different types of joinery. I talk a bit about pocket holes at about 2:25. ua-cam.com/video/MUFKFtFbigg/v-deo.html
Great project! Maybe it was not intentionnal (...I bet it was), but I felt like there was more "you" and "we" than usual in this video. It worked very well to make us, as viewers, feel more concerned and engaged in the projet.. well played!! ;)
Thank you for another great video. My favorite part was watching try to put in a drywall anchor and hitting a stud. I now feel like I’m not the only one that has done that, a lot! 😂
I really like that you can shift things L & R a bit too in a situation like this so you can really line stuff up & have a little flexibility, at least w the horizontal. Nice one 🙂
You can also make cleats with a hand router and a 45 degree bit or even a straight bit (by routing half of the material away on both sides). That’s a way of doing it if you don’t have a shop or access to a lot of tools
@@Iliketomakestuff I looked for it, but can't find a link to the spring corner clamps? There's a link to your "my woodworking tools" page, which has some regular corner clamps (screw ones), but not the spring ones.........
that looks so neat. a nice addition would be a little plate on the far left or right saying like “box 1: stormtrooper made in 20XX” so it feels like a museum!
Bob, great idea and it looks great. As humble feedback on the box construction. I suggest you add a couple screws through the side panels into your box cleat. As it is, the only thing holding the bottom and sides of your box to the top panel is glue/brad nails and the pocket holes on your back panel... this would add strength for heavier objects. Better yet is to have the butt joints on the outside of the top panel and screw through the sides into the top panel. Hope all that made sense.
I did this with a projector a few years ago. that saves you the step of printing out etc. you can just play around with placement on the computer and watch it projected live on the wall... that does limit you to the projection size/distance
I have to give you props for the final project, hat looks really great. However it feels like a colossal effort to undercut the most valuable element of French Cleats - the ability to move stuff around. By making every cleat fixed to the box width, that seems to be a lot of extra effort with minimal gain. With everything fixed in placed there has to be more suitable hanging options. But yeah, it looks cool.
@@Iliketomakestuff Oh, yeah, I can't fault the outcome. It 100% works, and looks excellent. It was just a lot of the extra effort spent building a super cool modular rack system, while removing 90% of the easily customizable benefit. If you need different sized boxes in the future, you'll probably have to remove the cleats. On the other hand, you won't have to worry about them being dust catchers. So that's a bonus.
my thought on "another method to measure/imagining stuff on the wall" is using a projector, by throwing some measurement in illustrator, displayed on the wall
Great video as always. Do you find the adhesive backed edge banding holds up over time? That’s new to me. Have only used iron on type and find it to be so tedious haha
You can safely do cleats with a circular saw if you cut them first from your large sheets. Use a guide for your saw, cut the angle for the first half, then cut a vertical cut for the second half of the cleat. Then you can cut your other pieces normally. You may have to plan your layout in order to do this, however.
When figuring out the eyeline for your grouping, consider museum standard is typically 5'3" for centerline of wall hangings based on the eyeline of the average American woman. Some round down to 5' (60") because it is a simpler number. This might look a little low in a home, however, especially if the pieces are mostly going to be viewed over the top of furniture.
4:36. I love how Brad Rodriguez calls them "Me" nails in his videos.
Lol. I liked the pic of Brad when you said "Brad nails". I always get a chuckle when he calls them "me nails".
Loved the Brad Rodriguez cameo! Haha
4:35 I almost spit out my Mountain Dew 😂 ILTMS HQ is really coming together and looking great! I definitely need to make a trip there soon to see it in person.
Loved the brad... nail references not sure how many people caught that but I did
@@rockstarfan886 "I understood that reference"
I'm loving how it's coming together.
Loved the reference! The two of you are my absolute favorite 2 woodworking UA-camrs - would love to see you guys collab on something.
LOL at the Brad reference. So good.
Just here to comment on the Fix This Build That reference. Well done!
the graphic at 6:37 made understanding how the joint works so much easier.
awesome!
5:47 that was really satisfying!
This is incredible. That "Shelf throw" at 10:38.... pure magic.
I had to watch that twice!
That was pretty fabulous.
.....my thought exactly 🤩

I appreciate that!
I agree. Seeing other makers having no issues with their projects can be rather self-defeating.
It's part of the journey
A couple of Brads! I see what you did there! ha ha. Awesome
I love that this idea is highly modular. You're not building a single cabinet that will get full or not have the right space, you're building a scalable display that can grow and move as needed as your collection changes. Thanks for sharing!
By the end I was thinking, "Hi, I'm Cleat at I Like to Make Stuff". Great project!
Well done, this is a really cool solution and you show how to make it in a simple/straight forward way.
Oh heck to the yes! Now this is a project I will need to start on!
Nice touch with Brad... nail
Optimus’ canon!!!!!? Friggin awesome!!!
Another week and it’s another kool project!
You have been really upping your game these past few months, particularly in editing. Well done!
Thank you very much! We have a great team here working together on everything :)
Love the Brad cameo! Now we need him to return the favor…maybe he can use a plumb Bob in his next video?
Ha ha. Enjoyed the image of Brad from FixThisBuildThat.
I've been thinking of doing a display wall, and I've been planning a big built in. But this fits my style a lot better, and allows me to add objects over time instead hoping it will fit a built in. Thanks for the idea!

Thanks 👍
@@Iliketomakestuff your very welcome
Another great piece of advice for stuff like this paint the boxes the same color as the wall its going on makes the items pop and your eyes aren't distracted by the difference between the wood and the wall
Nooice! Great work guys
You could do the cleats with a circular saw if you cut them off the edge of a larger piece instead of trying to add an angle to a strip
Super well done. I did almost the same thing, but with French Cleats and no backs on the boxes so the wall color could show through.
I have the perfect wall for something like this. Looking to make a ton of props that will need displayed and this method reminds me of comic book panels. Right up my alley.

A project right up my alley!
Terrific project Bob! That is a great way to display keepsakes and other important items! 👍👍
You're channel is an inspiration
Thanks!
Oooo this would be a neat way of displaying my favorite lego builds.
YES!

So happy to see Soundwave up there. The project that introduced me to your channel and inspiration for my own projects
That's awesome!
That was such a fun project
Fantastic, Bob! Really brilliant work! 😃
This should work well for a catfication... 🤔
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
...a la Steve @ WWMM 🐈😂
@@woodworksbygrampies1284 Bingo!
I see that you're rocking some sweet Donut boys merch. Great looking on you, give it the beans!
Displaying stuff I make is always an afterthought which results in a lot of stuff in closets or attics.
Loved the build! Will definitely try something like this in the future!
Dang it. Wish I had known this 2 years ago. I have bracket shelves and they're adjustable. The gallery style looks pretty cool
Thank you for another great video. My favorite part was watching try to put in a drywall anchor and hitting a stud. I now feel like I’m not the only one that has done that, a lot! 😂

Poor Brad. Are there Bob-nails for something stronger? :)
You are awesome 👍
so easy, still so beautiful!

Bob, you made a grave oversight with the stud finder!
You didn't point it at yourself and go "boop!'. That's a rookie mistake, man!
HAHAHA! Don't worry, Anthony did
I did this with a projector a few years ago. that saves you the step of printing out etc. you can just play around with placement on the computer and watch it projected live on the wall... that does limit you to the projection size/distance
That's true. There's been several people who suggested this, too.
it a pretty cool idea i like it 👍🏻👍🏻
talking about what ?
Love it! Beautiful job
Thank you! 😊
Love it
I'm jealous of that Soundwave
iliketomakestuff.com/soundwave-bluetooth-boombox/ You can make it too!
don't see a link to the corner clamps. been looking for a effective cheapo clamps
WOAH! Those boxen are so strong they can hold a totally real, not at all foam, cement block!
Very strong. The most strong and very real cement block.

On the other hand, you won't have to worry about them being dust catchers. So that's a bonus.
I think the main thing I'd want to add is a glass/acrylic front panel to seal them off so I'd only have flat surfaces to keep clean.

Great video as always. Do you find the adhesive backed edge banding holds up over time? That’s new to me. Have only used iron on type and find it to be so tedious haha
I haven't had any issues.
Great stuff!
Shouldn't you get more strength(if needed) butting the bottom to the side rather than the side to the bottom, and driving a screw or nail?
I love that giant Transformer Decepticon tape deck

Hey you’re using the “me” nails!! Awesome subtle shoutout!!!
You can safely do cleats with a circular saw if you cut them first from your large sheets.

good to know! We would have done the average of heights of everyone working in the office but alas, Anthony is SUPER tall and Meighan is SUPER short.
@@Iliketomakestuff That just means they would've balanced out haha.
Boxes where the back is pushed in would make excellent candidates for secret compartments.
