Craftsman Style Build: White & Walnut Bookshelf
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 2024
- This white bookshelf design was a compromise with my wife. She wanted white, I wanted black walnut, so this is what we ended up with. The combination of the white and walnut in this design ended up working well together and this bookshelf will be in our family for a long time. I also included some of my mistakes in this video to show you that even experienced woodworkers still make mistakes!

My name is Jared. I am an engineer by day and a woodworker by night... usually after the kids are in bed and before the neighbors call the cops!
This channel is about all things woodworking. I do project build videos, how-to videos, shop setup and shop layout videos, tip & tricks, and tool reviews of the stuff I'm using. I will also show you how I organize and work in my small shop in 1 bay of my garage. If you want to improve your woodworking and get inspired with some creative projects and innovative designs, come join me as a fellow evening woodworker and let's go make some sawdust!

Now go build something! - Навчання та стиль
You don't have enough subscribers for the quality of these videos man. Well done 👍
Thanks! I agree with you 100%. It's growing slowly but still growing!
I laughed out load when you said your wife threatened to buy. She must know my wife. I always here the same. Thanks for sharing.
The struggle is real!
That turned out beautiful...Always remember, A happy wife is a happy woodworker. Now maybe you can convince her to let you have more of the garage...lol
Haha yes that's brilliant! It's worth a shot at least
Beautiful shelf. Your comment about your wife threatening to buy one is so true. I usually hear "you're too busy" or "I don't want to wait a year". Man that hurts
Yeah the struggle is real! I wish I could work faster but I enjoy the details too much
Amazing work! And hello from Russia!
Thank you! I hope Russia is doing well!
What a process that you went through just for a bookshelf . You are amazingly patient and determined !
Thanks! But it's worth it in the end! 😉
That project came out great.. thank you for showing your mistakes.. good to see a video were the project doesn’t always come together.. 😁
Thanks! It's all about fixing mistakes, not being perfect
Thats a Beautiful piece. Good job
Thanks!
Thank you for the video! I am slowly realizing that buying good lumber is actually a savings when you account for the time spent trying to make cheap construction grade wood wood straight and compliant.
Yes, there's a time and place for construction lumber, but it's not in fine furniture!
This video was awesome. That book shelf is beautiful. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Great job. I really like it. By the way, I think more than a few of us have experienced mistakes. Keep up the good work
Thank you! Yes the mistakes are what make us human
Congratulations on completing such a beautiful and difficult project. I appreciate you including the mistakes so if nothing else, I get some comfort in the knowing that I am not the only woodworker who makes mistakes :). I know what you mean about painting wood. I even love the natural look of poplar (which is the hardwood I normally use due to budget constraints :) as it ages beautifully. But you have to please the "customer" (which is my case is almost always family and friends and they get an incredible discount). Are you a musician as well? You have a beautiful piano. Thanks for the well produced and informative video.
Thanks! Yes the family customers can be more difficult or more forgiving depending on the person... and yes I play the piano whenever I need a break from life!
Beautiful piece of work. It looks great next to y'all's piano. Appreciate the fact you share your goof ups, we all make them. I most likely will cut an angle in the wrong direction on the end of a piece of trim. Only done that 3 or 17 times.
Haha yeah it's always the last one that you mess up!
Nice project, looks great. I had a two year rocking chair and have a 8 month hall table with parts in a pile. Know the feeling. Keep up the nice work.
Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one!
I really really like your video. Your bookshelf is beautiful. I have the same issue with my wife about promises building something but the shedules are difficult sometimes. I'm gona subscribe to your channel.
Thanks man! The struggle is real!
That is the way to go.........if want good results start with good materials. The odds are in your favor at that point....looks great BTW.
Thanks! I'm not starting with the cheap stuff next time.
Beautiful work
Thank you!
This looks awesome. I'm planning to build something similar for my place. This gave me some really good ideas.
Good luck! And learn from my design mistakes!
Awesome! Even if I saw something with a good price on a site like Wayfair I rather build it. Using those sites for ideas is amazing.
Yeah it's good to do some research to get design ideas! That's a good place to start
Great job looks amazing! I think all of our wives threaten us with the same line. It must be in a woman’s DNA lol
Yes! I think they like the custom projects, but they don't like the wait!
Great video, thanks for the effort in making it. Had a question regarding if the walnut shelves ever bowed or sagged over time. I've never worked with walnut in a long shelf but I've had other wood sag if it's not supported in the middle at least. I just realized it's only been a year and a half so it's probably just fine.
No sagging so far, but that's why I went with the 6/4 walnut. Try using the Sagulator... just Google it. You can calculate what the sag will be on almost any shelf material.
Nice work! This demystified a few questions I had to build some shelves myself. Well done! How many coats of paint did you use and did you use a clear coat or finish on top of that?
I did three coats of paint, but I added an additional layer of clear polyurethane on the white shelves inside the cabinet to help in the high wear areas
What is that ryobi tool that you are cutting slots for the countertop?
It's called a biscuit joiner
That wifey thing is probably shared by a bunch lol , what size is your shop?
My shop is about 11x20. This is my last shop tour video: ua-cam.com/video/_tS6bdeBXBY/v-deo.html
Mistakes? I want to cut off my thumb instead of the wood.
Ha! Sounds like you need to watch the sawstop video!
@@EveningWoodworker I was using a sawstop! I was dumb enough to turn off the flesh detector because I was cutting wet wood.
Dang... hope you're okay. Yeah without the safety feature on it's just a nice tablesaw that can cut your fingers off
