Just a simple suggestion: Mounting the shelf with the braces on the bottom side will be stronger, because the pressure from the load pushes the braces into the wall, instead of pulling on them.

@yoyopg123 11 ай бұрын

Don't baffle us with your fancy physics about rotational forces being held in check by bottom mounted braces! The next thing you'll be telling us is that there are magical, sure-fire ways of being able to drill into a stud (first time) other than using a screw to randomly poke holes into your drywall in hopes that you will get lucky and find your target.

@TheBPJo 11 ай бұрын

@@stephanesavoie7562 in theory: when you put a load on the shelf, this creates a torque. and that torque has its pivot point where the board of the shelf meets the wall. so if you imagine this torque creating a rotation, due to the downward force of the laod, it would pull out the screws of the bracket if mounted on top. if mounted below, the screws are pushed in due to the torque. in practice there is more to this though, and that could result in pulling the screws out even with the brackets mounted below. e.g. when the board is not mounted perfectly in level, or the board flexing under the load.

They act as bookends on the top of the shelves!

@otter-pro Жыл бұрын

You can do either. Like it was mentioned, having it on top works as bookends, which is good for books. Having it on bottom has a cleaner look, which I like, if I'm just putting stuff and not books.

Having them on the bottom is theoretically better for drywall where there would be more compressive loads than tension loads.

@@ScottKraft also better if you are well anchored to the wall, say in a stud and putting something really heavy on it. In that case with the wood hanging from the shelf is testing the thread of the Philips screws into the wood. It’s always better for loads to be configured perpendicular than to be loaded in the direction of “pull out” on the threads. That said, it’s more applicable on bigger shelves with more weight, and what he’s done is fine even for books, so really it’s preferential

@@jokeal3613yes weight is the same but the force the weight applies is different. Right side up the bracket compresses against the wall and would fail with a high amount of shear force (not likely) Upside down as in the video the wieght of the shelf applies tension to the wall anchor making it more likely to strip the anchor out of the wall. Also as said above the head of the screw/ screw threads are supporting all weight placed on the shelf as opposed to the structure of the bracket supporting the weight and the screw keeping the shelf in place.

This video is so satisfying. I don't need to tell you how many ill informed tutorials there are online, never properly toeing the line between too much and too little information. This is perfection, so much so that the tutorial itself is like a work of art, every thought one would have following the process is accounted for, so thorough, so informative. This is the standard every tutorial should follow. I have no need to install a shelf right now, but when I do I know where I'm going.

@hazlogirar Жыл бұрын

It’s worth noting: when driving the tapcon screws in the concrete/brick scenario, make sure you switch out of hammer drill mode and bring the torque down on your drill (usually the ideal torque will be listed on tapcon package) to avoid breaking the head off your screw 😊

Maybe your next video can be on they physics of fastener pullout of 0.5" screws vs 2" screws and why resting the shelf on top of the brackets is stronger and even more upper class and why the book ends can be made simply out of bent some sheet metal. You could also make the next video about the snippy comments are from youtube's audience of geniuses but that may require a 3rd video to remind everyone that half of us are below average intelligence yet our ability to figure out which half we sit in is fundamentally broken.

My dad (a retired general contractor + amazing finish carpenter) taught me: use a magnet to find wall studs -of course, the magnet attaches to sheet rock screw heads. Do this rather than an electronic stud finder (even the better ones are often inaccurate). You must apply some common sense about framing; once the magnet sticks, follow down the wall in a vertical line to find other screws. After you mark first magnet/screw location, move 16” in either direction to look for the adjacent studs. With this, you’ll know for _near_ certain that you’ve found the stud.
