  • In this video, I walk through how we turned billy bookcases from IKEA into built-in shelves. Using billy bookcases is a quick and affordable way to get the built-in shelves you have always wanted.

    I just bought this Ryobi Brad nailer and learned that the knob near the front of the gun can be turned to determine how much depth you want the nail to go in. And on the back of the gun there’s a power knob that I haven’t learned how to use yet lol but there is a detachable extra tip on the bottom of the clip; idk what it’s purpose is for yet 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m still learning

    Here in the UK, the TV warranty is void without a specific heat-retardent shelf mounted below the Screen...??

    I can tell you are somewhat new just by watching you use the tools. But practice will make perfect and your natural sense of design more than made up for it. Best thing is effort and your project looks a million bucks. Liked/subscribed!

    • @tribalm0nkey
      @tribalm0nkey 2 роки тому +1

      Its seems they made it so it protrudes slight passed the book shelves by a few inches I think this was a personal preference for looks more than anything as the fire place seems to be quite flat at the back and the depth doesn’t appear to be deeper than the Unit itself so the depth of the whole unit was determined more by the depth of the shelves than anything else, if the fire place was deeper than the units than the same would apply just the opposite way around. Hope that helps

    Overall I think this looks great I did have a question though…
    Did you guys create a channel or corridor for you to be able to add components to the TV and keep the wires hidden like DVD player/PlayStation/wii. I would’ve thought that you would’ve definitely rig some sort of a system in the empty space behind the wall for you To run the HDMI cords For them to be retrieved on the shelving….?
