I’m working on my teenage son’s closet. It is a walk-in closet but it is the tiniest of all the bedroom closets.
{remember my youngest son’s walk-in closet that is 16 feet long?}
Closet at it’s current state:
Here is what my father has to deal with. LOL.
I make a quick phone call to let him know I’ve got a new project for us and he kindly replies, “Alright. Come on over.”
I sketched out plans for two shelving units and two shelves.
And here’s one part of what I’ve sketched out on paper.
A shelving unit made of MDF.
My dad sets up his Dato Blades on the table saw.
{What’s a Dato Blade? Several blades stacked together to your determined width.}
In this case, the Dato is set up for 3/4 inch to accommodate the width of a MDF board. The height of the blades are adjusted so that it only cuts half way into each side board.
These shelving units are going to be a little different from my youngest son’s closet unit. Instead of setting on the floor, the two units will be anchored to wall. {by these wooden brackets pictured above} My oldest son’s room has taken on a more modern feeling and I want to carry that over in to the closet. This is why I used galvanized pipe and chrome brackets to hang his clothes from.
Check back for the final reveal.
{I hope I’m able to photograph this less than 4 foot closet?!?!?}
