DIY Montreal | 7 Foot Long Solid Wood Floating Shelves | How to Build and Install @DIYMontreal | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 1 minute ago
Thanks to Moosehead Breweries for partnering with me on this project! Moosehead is on a mission to inspire and motivate Canadians to cross a task off their to-do lists - and earn a Beer With Your Name On It. I received a lot of submissions for what I could help you build (and get YOUR Beer With Your Name On It!). In this DIY woodworking video, I’ll show you how to build solid wood floating shelves and how to install floating shelves using floating shelf hardware. Long floating shelves can be a successful DIY project using the right hardware!
There are a lot of shelf support brackets available on the market and it’s hard to know what to choose. I chose these ones for a few key reasons: weight capacity 100lbs+ (each extra brackets adds more capacity), you can anchor each support independently into your studs, and they are designed for a shelf thickness of 1-⅛ to 1-¼ inch.
So, what projects will you tackle? Remember to post your accomplishment on Instagram before the end of summer and tag @moosehead, or simply visit http://beerwithyourname.com for a chance to score an actual beer with YOUR name on it! Must be of legal drinking age. Please enjoy responsibly. #Partner
