freakin awesome.. 2 questions: why didn't you: 1. go for the top extenders on the side bookcases to make it flush with the ceiling? 2. use any trim to finish off the shelf fronts (i.e. to make look thicker like the vertical walls) Thank you!

The shelf extender was something we thought about however with the base frame it did not fit how we wanted it to. We wanted a wide trim at the top This was something we also thought about but did not want to do.

This was really helpful as I prepare to do the same thing! Question: You removed the edge tape, sanded the area, and then used gorilla glue and brad nailed what exactly - the MDF? Because then you put a bigger baseboard on. Sorry! Just want to get mine flush too and didn't follow this part very well. Thanks for any help!

Yes, gorilla glue and brad nailer was used to place the MDF. This is medium density fiberboard pretty much sawdust with glue compressed. You could use any material that fills the gap. Lowe’s and Home Depot both have options.

U gotta sand the laminate aggressively. Use cabinet primer, for “glossy surfaces”. Lowe’s has it, then whatever paint u like. I guarantee u had issues with paint chipping off or pealing, just even by moving things around on the shelves. Paint itself will not bond to laminate. This was hell for me.

As of right now we have not had any paint chipping problems. 👍 we did not paint the shelf’s themselves just the wood trim.

Great video. Did you use 2x4s or 1x4s for the header frame? From several angles it looks like 1x4s

Where did purchase the pre-cut mdf boad?

Everything we cut ourselves. The MDF was scrap material from a project.
