- How to Build a Custom Cedar Rifle Rack - Full Process DIY
In this video we built a custom Rifle Rack out of some Cedar picked up at a local Home Depot. This started off as just a really cool idea, which evolved over a few months into what ended up being a pretty amazing piece!! ALSO - if you happen to be watching this prior to Oct 10th 2019, we are GIVING THIS AWAY!! Head over to my Instagram to enter the contest / for more details!! If you try to build this yourself, be sure to reach out to me and let me know how your build goes and what I could have tried to do differently.

Note for my fellow DIYers! 👋 While I consider myself an experienced DIY enthusiast, it's important to note that I'm not a certified professional. These videos are created to share my expertise, tips, and creative ideas for your construction, remodeling, woodworking, and homesteading projects. However, your project is unique, and I can't guarantee that my methods are foolproof for everyone. I'm here to inspire and guide, but the responsibility for the success and safety of your renovation or construction project lies with you.

I won't be held liable for any mishaps or mistakes that may occur during your DIY journey.
Let's embark on these projects together, learn from each other, and, most importantly, enjoy the process! THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
Lookin good man. Going to build myself one.
Instead of putting the screws in the side I would have glued the sides and back and put more screws in the back it would not be as visible unless they were looking at you brand
Definitely some better ways to do it for sure, I’ve learned a lot since this one, thanks for checking out the video!
I know this is an older video... but pre drilling holes to countersink takes time but its so much better or putting tape on the wood so it doesn't "chew." Also a tip when doing the trim, instead of nails you could put a few wooden dowels in, let them dry and cap them with your casing... would hide the dowel- great job!
7:12 free up any birds 😂
It is a great song after all 🤙🏻
Nice build, everything about it !!!
Thanks! In hindsight, I'd definitely do a few things differently, but always learning and improving! I appreciate the compliment, I think it did turn out pretty cool indeed.
nice cabinet. I am also making one now. g0ing to start in a couple days. loved the bullet casing.
Thanks!! It worked pretty well, I wish I had been able to use a drill press and had a more precise bit-to-shell sizing, but for totally winging it I really liked the end result. Good luck on your build!
Very cool locker!!!
It turned out pretty sweet! Been thinking up a v2 of this build, trying to snag a drill press to make the holes more precise. Thanks for checking out the video! 🤘🏻
That was bad ass I like that !!! Going to try this build
Thanks!!! If you try the build let us know how it turns out! Thanks for the support! 💪🏻
Finally someone who uses pocket screws.
Nothing wrong with them 👍🏻
Thing looks great! Really liked the 9mm shell design on the outer frame. Awesome!
Sharp Gun build ! Outstanding, just found your page,thx for sharing.
Thanks for the feedback - glad you enjoyed the build! It was super challenging, but very cool to see it all completed!
A job well done!! Very nice!!!
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed the build!
Nice work! It looks great!
Thank you! Def want to try a v2 of this at some point! Appreciate you checking out the video!
Looks great. Good work.
Thanks Jeremy!! It was a difficult build, definitely would change some things in retrospect, but overall it was fun! Thanks for watching!
@@TheToughGuysTV I need one, and don't want to spend $400 on it so I plan on building one. Thank you for the great ideas. What would you have done differently?
I would have used a harder wood for sure - even Pine over Cedar. Cedar was great for the overall weight but man.. it was tough to keep it from splitting. I had a heck of time drilling those holes and keeping it all together. Also, would have made it a little taller, and probably more “rustic” looking - maybe distressed finish a bit more.
Very cool! Nice work, man!
Hey thanks!! I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed the video and the build - it was a challenging one no doubt!
Awesome!!!
Thanks man!!! I learned a lot on this one, definitely would do some things different if I build another one, but it was really fun!! 💪🏻🙌🏻
Nice job!
Hey thanks!! And thanks for watching! It was a fun build 💪🏻
I know that I need to get some more tools to do this right but for sure going to give this a run as a Christmas gift. Thanks for the step by step brother
No problem man happy that it will help you!! One recommendation would be to use a harder wood - something NOT cedar 😂😂 it damages so easily and splits easily as well. It does keep it light, mine ended up only weighing 27 lbs total. Good luck and keep me posted if you build it!
Great build video. You gave me some good ideas for the "rack" that I want to build for my son! I love The Simpsons do it for her sign in your shop!
Hey thanks!!! Yes that sign is awesome, had to make something for our tiny girl - she’s the best!! Glad the video brought you some value, it was a challenging build - and giving it away was bittersweet of course, wanted to keep it really bad!!! Thanks for the support!
The hanging system is called “French Cleat”. Often made diy with lumber.
That one slipped my mind thanks for the note!
This project turned out GREAT..! Nice job with the creativity and adaptability as well. I would love to make this project. Have plans been made since the building of this project, and if so, can you please share.
Thanks so much! I did not make plans for this build, I'm actually not familiar with any of the software used for that sort of thing. Wish I had though - had a bunch of requests!! Glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for taking the time for the comment.
Awesome build. Might give it a try. Keep up the great work. Cheers
I like your idea man, going to give it a go with my own twist. Subscribed.

Thanks!!! Man this was a huge learning experience for me, I may try this build again at some point! Hope yours turns out great! If you do build something share with me on Instagram if you have an account, would love to see how it turns out. 💪🏻
Great video ....thanks .I have been wanting to make one that attaches to my dresser ,but would swing open for access to my guns . You did a great job and learned a few things .
This is so an informercial for Kraig jig. Lol.
Well it was a huge part of the build I suppose. I actually prefer a different product, the Massca jig I have now is much better.
Shortest rifles ever
Sick burn 🔥
What a beautiful builds!! Especially this gun rack! Make more videos please!!👍🏻👍🏻
Hey thanks for the comment! I appreciate that very much! 🙌🏻
Between the brass and the lumber, you've got about $10K worth of materials by today's prices in this project! lol
Man you aren't lying!!! Prices for everything are crazy right now! Thanks for checking out the video
The pocket screws makes it look like shit. The bullet trim is bad ass but pocket screws ruin projects, especially if can be seen. Inside looks like Swiss cheese with the pocket screws.
Appreciate the feedback, probably could’ve done it differently of course, but overall I’m happy with the result and how it all turned out. ✌🏻
@@TheToughGuysTV A biscuit joiner or a loose tenon joint would have been the way to go. It still looks nice.
