Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лют 2025
- Ash veneered mdf bookshelf made so that the books in the boxes could come out and become a bit more convenient.
Measurement: whole thing approx. 240cm tall and 285 ish wide
Mdf 18mm veneered mdf
The sizes for the shelves are: 25cm deep and 46 wide and 36 tall
(with the one on the right side a bit shorter because i did not want to do the math, so I just made the last pieces to fit the remaining length to the wall

I do not know what's cooler, what interests me most. Whether it is the making of the furniture, or the interest in reading. Congratulations!
That is kind words, i appreciate them :D
Everything about this video is great - the music, the woodworking, the family. I like it when he looks at the pop-up book. 👍
thank you very much (best booktype ever) :D
I am not sure what I like better the creativity in the wood design or the video production.Great camera angles, interesting composition in the shots ( I love the dog and the baby) great editing. Nice work! I enjoyed it.
The thing i like the most are all you awesome people that like the videoes :D
@@FlokrollProjects Can you make me one and FedEx it?
@@Dave-nz5jf sure :D
😢R😢😢😢😊😊😊😅😅😅😅@@FlokrollProjects
This is the way my Dad was. He’d just make whatever he wanted. It would be a beautiful world if more Dads would.
That is maybe the best comment ever :D
Thanks! Beautiful work, both the video and the bookshelf. I am sure your child will appreciate growing up surrounded by books
Thank you, and yes i hope so :D
About to move to a new home and make a home for many, many books. So I'm looking at a project something like this. Great work, I love it. Nothing really matches built in bookshelves as a home for a beloved library!
Pleased to see the love that went into making this project. From all the dados done with a single table saw blade to the time taken to look through books while putting them on the shelf. Beautiful and humble and honest.
Thank you very much. That kind of comments are very appreciated
That was awesome....the video production along with the building of that bookshelf. I’m amazed...great job!!
Thank you very much
The best of the best of all the videos that I watched.
Thank you very much, that made my day :D
I’ve been studying this video to teach and inspire myself to build my own floor to wall 📚 case. Thank you for sharing with us!
Glad it was helpful! Supercool that you build your own wall :D
Lovely bookshelf of lovely family
thank you very much :D
the music is so nice and this project is wonderful! thx for showing us!
THank you very much
This is a beautiful bookshelf. And the video is perfect, is shows all the steps how to make it. I am in the same situation like you were, i.e. I have boxes full of books, and a wall which I want to have bookshelf like this. Searching on UA-cam brought me here. I think you should put measurements in the description. I found it in the comments 25cm depth x 30 x 60 but I had to search to find it, it wasn't obvious.
i will do it now :D new to this youtube things :D thanks for reminding me, hope ytour bookcase turns out great.
Nice job! You have skills !
Thank you very much, glad you liked the video :D
This is so relaxing to watch
Thank you very much :D
I really wish this video was titled “making big ash bookshelves”
hahaha :D maybe i will change it :D
Fits well into my space, I painted the back green. It's very easy to customize just the back if that's something you want to do. I would suggest sanding it first before painting, I got a little impatient. The shelves ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxM8H4CjCb79vzeyvgaFMdzmLm88oVFPMkare pretty small so keep that in mind if you're going to have it horizontal that some books won't fit. I like the snug look that it has. Good small shelf if you don't have much space, but not too small. Simple to put together, though you'll need your own tools, a screwdriver and a mallet/hammer, it's easiest to do with another person.
That are very kind words :D thanks
Beautiful and well made! Bravo!
Thank you very much :D
Everything about this is perfect. I couldn't help but notice what a beautiful family you have. Look forward to more of your work!~ :)
Thank you very much. I will say hello from you to them. Hope you like my other work as well. Have a nice day forward :D
Wooowww...... 😯😯😯😍😍 I'm in awe... that's beautiful work!
Glad you like it! :d
Dude, that was flawless
wonderful video ! I am going to make myself a bookshelf and it really inspires me
awesome, thank you for watching :D
Beautiful video
Fantastic , I also like the music and the warm colors of the vedio
me too, pure accident
and thank you
Amazing video, thanks for sharing your process !
I like the color of your House.. And bookshelf and books are very nice
Thank you and thank you :D
Nice. Great video. You guys definitely should have stained it before assembly though. Would have looked alot nicer, but overall the construction and work done was fantastic. I've always loved wood working, but being a certified FAA A&P(Aircraft Maintenance Technician) I actually ended up specializing in sheet metal working which soon became a new passion for me. Bending, forming, driving rivets, and so on. So I became really interested in sheet metal and composite materials(graphite, carbon fiber, fiber glass, Kevlar, and so on) work as well, overall(primarily aluminum and steel). Theirs so much more you can do with metal and composite materials that one cannot do with wood, it's astonishing. One thing that most individuals find interesting though is that the FAA still requires an individual to take a short (I think it was like 12 hours) course still on Aircraft wood structures as part of our training in order to become an aircraft maintenance technician even though wooden airframes on Aircraft are nearly obsolete.The only down side is, one must have the necessary equipment and tools which can be very costly, in order to perform any sheet metal or composite work at home.
Thank you very much for the feedback. It is not often i use stain, it needs to fit in with the enviroment a bit more. The light ash color is easier to mix with things (in my opinion :D) Sheetmetal work is so awesome. I have wanted to try it out for a long time, but as you say, you do need a bit of know-how and a lot of tools :D
Really like it. Love the video, edited very well.
thank you very much
Great job... exquisite music!
thank you very much
Wonderful work. Watching working made me relax :p
Thank you very much
¡LO AMÉ...! Congrats 2 y'all!
Thank you :D
You are the man! Nice work
I appreciate that, thank you very much
Simple and beautiful 👍🏼
Very cool that you like it :D
Great video and job. One question, how did you attach the bookcase to the base you made?
Thank you for watching and commenting :D I am not really sure, it was a real narrow fit, so it kinda just stayed in place :D I think i gave it a couple of screws into the the wall near the window,. :D
Looks awesome!
Thank you very much
Very nice mate, well done.
Dave Williams thnx 🎈
This is what I need
Fascinating to watch, beautiful
Nice to hear :D Thnx
Wow! It looks very nice!!
Thank you very much
Great! I love books.
:D thank you, books are great
That adds so much to the room it’s incredible! Can I ask, what would you do differently if you had to do it all over again? Thanks for sharing the project and great editing, cheers.
Joe Cooper hi there. And thanks. Hmm. Hard to tell. I had some design with different sizes of the shelves that i think would be cool. I am making another one next month. So we will see then. 😁
Hey Stan, when I was hanging cabinets in my shop I had an occasion to hang two side by side like the two in your shed. I turned the left one upside down so the the door was hung on the left side making them open in the center. The shelves were uneven between the two of them but who would notice, or care? I loved the acorn bit. Kids! 2:52
Hi, i agree with you, nobody will notice :D Hope you have a great day :D
Excellent.
Many thanks!
Beautiful team work, guys. One question - no need to secure the bookshelf to the wall? Just in case...
Thank you very much, no need to secure, it is jammed into place, and cannot tip because it goes into the ceiling :D If you are really strong, you could pull it straight out though :D
really makes the room
thank you very much :D
Beautiful design! What is the LxWxDepth of each individual box? Looks perfectly sized
25cm depthx30x60 and the last is a bit shorter, cut them last to ensure that they would fit perfectly
And thank you very much for watching
I plan on building one in my bed room for collectibles to go on, Looks great nice job, Do you mind sharing the cost with us?? Thank You
Thank you, i think i used approx 300 - 350 USD on the materials in total, so not so bad
Excellent!
hi there that is nice, how thick was the stock you used, 24mm or 18mm perhaps?
19mm, and thank you
Looks cool
Thank you
really cool!
Thank you, and you got the coolest name/handle
Flokroll Projects thank you😊
High quality work. Yor are a wood craftsman. By the way, which type of saw blade disc did you use it in order to make clean cuts?
Thank you, unfortunately i am now a wood craftsamn (by far) but i do enjoy making things. :D The blade is a 3mm "standard cross cut blade" thats all i know about it. But the saw itself got good power that helps with the clean cuts
how much did it cost you ? The materials ? Love it
Dont remember clearly, but around 500 Usd i think
Esta canción me hizo replantearme varios aspectos de mi vida
eso es increíble, creo :D
How does it get fixed to the wall?
i just jammed it in there, no need to fix it, such a tight fit. :)
Love this so much; thank you!! 2:22
Hehe :D thank you
how did you fix the vertical board on the left of the bookshelf? is it held only by the glued horizontal board ends?
only glue. glue is strong :D
Great job! Can I ask- did you mount this to the wall at all? I’m thinking about doing my own bookshelf wall
Hi there, and thank you for watching. I did not mount it at all, it slid in almost perfect, and cannot tip over because of the short distance to the roof itself
Hi there , but if one day your move out of the house how will you detach all those woods and
reassemble them again ? thank you for sharing .
Nope, they will stay. Next owner can choose what to do with them.
Thank you for watching
What are you doing at the 2:20 minute mark.
i am ironing som edge banding to the ends of the mdf. The edge band strips have glue on them, so when heated they gets stuck to the ends of the panels :D
@@FlokrollProjects Thanks for the info. Great work
It's really amazing work, i want to make it in my bedroom too. Can you tell me plz the size of the boxes ?
long overdue answer, the sizes are 30 x 60 cm
Hvordan har det gått med avstanden fra peisen til bokhylla? Og du har laget sporene til hyllene på hver side på samme sted i de vertikale bordene, har dette påvirket stabiliteten?
Avstanden har gått helt bra, selv når peisen brenner for fult merker jeg ingen varme ved den ytterste hylleplaten.
Jeg lagde sporene på samme sted (tror man kan se det i videoen når jeg banker den sammen) måtte være litt varsom når jeg flyttet platene rundt, men når de ble fylt av lim og tversgående plate ble de sterkere og stivere en før :D
@@FlokrollProjects Hehe. Så du var norsk ja. Hvilken peis er det? Jøtul F135 eller noe? De er vel laget for å kunne stå nært brennbart materiale?
Awesome
Thank you very much :D :D:D
Hi there!... could you tell me how deep are de undercuts you made to slide the horizontal shelves? and how thick is the board? thanks!!!.. really nice work!!! I´m thinking about doing some on my own, 40x40cm shelves!
Hello, did anyone knows the answer of this question, I want to make it too.
sorry for late answer, the bords are 19mm and the size of the boxes are 40 x 60 cm
THe undercuts was 0.5 cm i think, not much is needed
where'd you get all of those materials?
local lumberyard :D
@@FlokrollProjects thanks! I'll try to go to local lumberyard in my area to see what they have because I'm about to build loft railing in a bookshelf style.
@@ayangjibrut the mdf with vennered oak frontside might be scarce to come by. But really, anything flat goes (mdf,plywood, whole wood etc.) Loft railing bookshelf sounds awesome :D
Fin:) Hvor fikk du kjøpt mdf med finer og matchende "edge banding" ?
Auarhau oslo fineerfabrikk, for begge deler, om du er i Oslo, ellers får man dem i generelt i litt "bedre" trelasthandler. ps flott fres 🎈
Trop bien
What is the name of that blu tool you use for the edges on the shelves? And second question, was it easy to attach the "edge banding" and does it still look good?
It is called a "edge banding tool" it is good but not great, I got some friends that have more success with just a flat and sharp knife. Edge banding is super easy and it holds up very well. I would recommend the type that is pre glued :D
Den ble fin den ! ;) (kjente igjen maleboksen)
haha :D tusen takk
I have the samt philosophy NEVER measure unless you have to. Great video - thanks! 3:28
Hehe :D yes. Thank you
amazing work ..how much time did it take nd where did u find this track ?
I am guessing about 20 hours, everything included, but spaced out over a week or so.
Track is : Music by : Stefan Kartenberg - a white dream
+Flokroll Projects great..thanks for sharing :)
Is that a Star Wars popup book you’re reading there near the end? I heard those things are worth a fortune! 😅
It is :D I love that thing. I dont think it is that expensive, but i do got some vintage star wars pop-ups :D
Flokroll Projects 😁 En stund siden du fortalte meg om da du kjøpte dem... 😂 Morsomt å finne deg på youtube! Ser ut som du koser deg som pappa 🥰 Kanskje vi må ha en Noroff reunion snart? 😅
It is indeed beautiful and amazing. Although you need a sawmill to recreate it at home.. :(
Thank you. Could be done with a hand held circular saw :D But a sawmill is nice :D
Cool, love it!
nice
Thanks
Beautiful work and creativity.
I don't have the machines or the skills so - IKEA Billy bookcases. And no, I don't work for them.
you dont need many machines or a lot of skills for this project, ive it a try
Is this secured to the wall?
Nope!
seems unwise given how big it is. Could get pulled down on a child.
Jordan Gons i dont think it can. It need to be pulled 30cm straight out. Because of the fit it cannot be tipped over. It would crash in the cealing before moving.
So cool
yeah, cool. and thanx
If you had a cat, it would be the happiest haha
Haha, would love to get one.
@@FlokrollProjects please, do.
I wish I had the tools & money to build this.
Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho
Thank yout
Measurment bhi batar
Cool
Thnx 😀
very nice.
Thank you
inspired bro
Cool. Thanks
Oh not just a wall, but tools required as well lol
:D some tools needed yes :D
Couple questions for you . .how long did this take. Great video but no clear sense of time. Also .. what kind of experience do you have in making stuff like this. is this like your 100th bookshelf?
I think maybe 20 hours? +/- my third shelf. I think this shelf can be built with very little experience. I am educated an industrial designer, so i do got some training in the tools/workshop. Are you making your own?
What fireplace is that?
Sorry, i do not know, i think it is a "Jøtul" of some sort
nice
Thanks :D
A-MAZ-ING!
T-h-ank you :D
do you have the plans, can you please send it?
Ello. I made no plans for this. It is just vertical pieces with horizontal pieces glued in. I made the depth 25 cm (as i do with all bookcases). Just measure the height and width of where you want this and start ripping :D
And beautiful baby!
She says thnx :D
ДРУЖНАЯ СЕМЕЙКА 🙏🌏☃️🙌⛄🌲🎅☺💐👍🔥😻
Full cost to make
I thinl maybe i paid around 300-350 USD for the materials, and thats pretty much all cost i had.
NICE !!!!
Csaba Facsar 🎈😊 cool to hear
Bravo .. très magnifique ❤
Thank you very much
Neat,
Thnx!!
You should have finished it with white paint 😭
I might still do that :D but i do love the color of the wood
My fear is that l'll build something like this and then try to put it up and realize it's half an inch too wide lmao
Hehe, same. I used an old trick, the last shelves are cut after i have measured all the other ones that i made. So they are a few cm shorterm you can almost see it in the video
Idk why but i read the title as 'Making a large ass bookshelf'
Haha :D i admit that i do it sometimes aswell :D
