Thread: tech related- help building dvd shelf-

you just need a 5 by 5 shelf? how many dvd's deep? just one? or two?
just pm me if u want to ask any more before this becomes to private

Ok, i just winged it lol, instead of 5x5 i build a 6ftx 3ft shelf with tons of space 7 shelfs 9 inches from the center of each shelf with a 2in. gap at the bottom to elevate it.
I used> Skill saw=$39; B&D small drill=$10; Nails= $2.99; square= $3.89; pencil= free; clamps $2.99, small hand saw for touch ups $3.49, Wood from lowes $25 for 5 boards i cut 3 boards to make my shelfs and 2 boards for the sides, I had some small 3/4 ths board i used to make the back between the shelfs "a small strip to keep the dvds from falling out. Total price= around $87

I was told the shelf i wanted from the wholesale place was $229.00 i built it myself+ baught the equiptment for $87 i saved $147, plus a few of my friends liked it so im building them some for 75 a piece... hmm im coming out on this lol, I alredy had stain and gloss so that was free as well, took me all day to build it but im already reaping the beniefts.

but u forgot that once upona time u paid for a pecil so thats about 5 cents. lol
thats pretty cool
alot of stuff is really easy to build yourself you just gotta have the will power to get off the couch and do it.

if you get it done you'll really feel good about yourself, but I would have just recommend you buy one from ikea
