Jason: I'm going to show you how to build a shelf.
Now, it doesn't matter where you are or what room you're in, everyone needs a shelf, for
an iron in the laundry, or your tea and coffee in your kitchen.
I'm going to show you how to put it all together.
The tools I'm going to use are the drill and impact driver.
I've got my tape measure, brackets, spirit level, pencil, drill, and some fixings, a
stud finder, some white paint, and the safety gear, as well.
I'm going to use the stud finder to locate the studs so I know where to put my screws.
These two marks that I have on the wall, the center of the stud should be located right
in the middle of those, so I'm just gonna measure center and that will give me the center
of our stud.
That should be my stud.
I'm going to position my shelf bracket over the stud that I've marked on the wall.
I'm gonna mark those three circles for the screws.
Before I screw anything off, I'm going to drop my spirit level down the outside of it
to make sure it's nice and plumb.
Now that I have the marks, I'm gonna pre-drill those holes and put my timber screws in there,
fix the bracket to the wall.
I'm screwing in the timber so I have pilot holes into the stud.
My bracket will sit in position.
I will drive my timber screw in three positions.
I've painted the top of the blank so it matches the bracket itself.
The reason I put that top screw in before the middle one, the middle one is right close
to that middle bracket, and if I put it in there before I put the top one in, it'll push
the bracket over.
So bottom one first to secure it, top one to keep it in position, middle one last.
Now that my first bracket is up, I'm now gonna mark the position for my second bracket.
My shelf is 700 mill long.
I'm gonna come in 100 mill from each end of my shelf.
My second bracket will be 500 mill across, and I'm gonna measure that now and put a level
line in here.
I've marked out my three new holes.
Ideally, your bracket's going in your timber studs.
In this case, I know there's no timber stud here.
I'm going to be using a wall anchor.
What it does is it flares open behind the plaster, so it'll lock in and hold this stud
in position.
Now that I've got my hole in the wall, I'm going to push my anchor in there.
To get it to work, I need to tighten that up.
Once it's tight, I take it out, and then fit my bracket over the top of that.
Now that I've got both of my brackets on the wall, I'm going to put my shelf up there.
All I need to do now is mark and pilot hole the four holes so I can put my screws in.
That's how you build a shelf.
