Thanks!

The top is off the shelf from Home Depot and is 2” thick. I just used the cut off from the top as the piece attached to the wall but if you have a 1x4 it will work just fine.

I want to make a 20" by 46" desktop. 3/4" glued edge pine. The longest bracket I can find is 16". What do you recommend? Thank you for replying most do not.

@@sscalf31 we are currently making a 2” think white oak floating desk 24” deep and the longest bracket we could find are 16” deep as well. Fortunately it is going to a wall so I decided to notch the bottom of the desk and am going to screw a 1” metal box tube to the wall that we can secure the desk to. It is a commercial project and I do not want a sagging issue so that is what I came up with. If it is sagging you may have to add or change out to a more supported bracket like an angle bracket.

I'm also thinking if I use a 2x4 ledger that would reduce the depth supported by the brackets to 18.5 or reduce total top depth to 18"

I’ll see if I can figure that out! I used 3” GRK screws to screw to the wall.

For sure

Glad you like it!

I knew you would pick that out! I bet you know how those got there also. April fools prank!

They were purchased from Amazon actually.

We attach a lot of floating shelves and have found using a cleat or block to secure the brackets is the way to go. Otherwise the brackets will collapse the drywall.

@@SchiffersCustomCabinetry Thanks. I actually did use the blocks to secure the heavy duty brackets. So far so good. Thanks so much for the reply.

They have some but I prefer using Mohawk brand finish product which we order from them directly. I do believe you can get some of the same products from Amazon though.

@@SchiffersCustomCabinetry Thanks man

In this video I used thin but usually we prefer the thick. The thick is easier to use, thin is very runny.

@SchiffersCustomCabinetry Appreciate the info New to wood working It's a hobby right now but I want to get to a point where I can redo stuff around the house

Great!

That would be harder to add up for sure.

Thanks for the comment.

Just pick any middle point and measure both directions... What the hell is this 10" fatherlessness shit 😂

@@Redact63Lluks either works but my way is faster cause it’s just one measurement. Don’t worry buddy, daddy will teach you.

@@kasenhaddix7651 well I guess I should just appreciate my dad teaching me long math doesn't need paper 😄 Nice bro 👌

I did I just never used it but was just informing those that may not. Thanks for the comment.

It is looking great. Stay tuned in the next video we will be installing it.

Hey! I know those girls sanding! ❤

@@abigailfirster5139 I bet you do!

For some yes, but I didn't give the tips for the seasoned builder. Thanks for the comment.

I knew about it but just never applied it into practice but it is easier.

Ya it's a secret to these green horns. Had a 24 year old try to use a hammer by try to punch the nail with the hammer than swig it. He is our best guy now because I show him these things. Lol

I have had guys get hired that claimed to be able to read a tape then find out they did NOT. You take the good with the bad sometimes. Everyone is trainable!

I am a cabinet builder but everything on a roof is complicated. You guys are studs in my book not a fan of heights!! Haha

@@SchiffersCustomCabinetry I hate heights too. I guarantee every roofer hates heights. I was born into it and the rest just want to eat.

I had a 10' fall when the ladder kicked out a year ago and now I get nervous even going 10'. Good luck to you and stay safe!

You rock!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I am getting somewhat more comfortable in front of the camera!

Good luck!

Thank you so much!

You're in!

Entered!

Thank You 👍🏼

Thanks for the comment. I didn’t know anything about doing all of this and it is very encouraging to hear! We will be showing more on the job installs and an insight to what we do. Thanks for watching from Brazil. What would you be most interested in seeing?

@@SchiffersCustomCabinetry Very good! Friend I'd love to see any custom woodworking and carpentry work you post. I also have great admiration for buildings. I saw that you work a lot with wood. Here we work more with bricks, blocks and cement throughout the construction, but I am passionate about the style of North American wooden houses. I keep following your new videos, big hug.
