I wanted to add built-in shelves to my home office but with wood being as expensive as it is, I did not want to pay for plywood. After evaluating the famous "Billy" Bookcases at Ikea, I had an idea to transform them into custom built-ins! I'm glad to say the idea worked, and I spent less than $300 on the whole project! Details on this project below.👇🏼 For more projects, check out fieldtreasuredesigns.com/blog/

    Used to use an auto hammer to drive nylon pegs when I built U-Haul trucks. It was actually a good Job to switch to if you were doing a job with a lot of blind hand threading. I wouldn't want to do it forever. After a couple of days covering for a guy I tapped out. My hands and wrists felt numb from the vibration. You definitely want to switch hands after prolonged use.

      The dewalt shadow line is their version of a laser line and is far superior as the light casts a shadow over the blade giving you a precise line on the material. I like it a lot.

    Hey man nice floor! Quick question, just did my floors yesterday. Do you think I can use the rustoleum clear top coat rather than the epoxy shield clear top coat? I just don’t see myself spending another $200 on clear coat

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew 16 днів тому

      Hey man thanks. Honestly I don’t know. All I know is that the clear coat is hugely important and $200 doesn’t seem like a huge expense to make sure your investment of money and time is solid. I also like the sand mixed in to the epoxy shield to prevent it getting too slippery. Sorry I don’t have more information. I can just say that the last part might be the most important part so choose wisely.

    • @diywithandrew
      @diywithandrew Місяць тому

      Thanks! We did that because it was peeling. The other areas weren’t peeling and don’t have that veneer so we left them alone. The reason the veneer needed peeled is because it would be obvious even with paint and it doesn’t sand well. Hope that helps.
