Buy me a coffee? www.buymeacoffee.com/diytechn... Buy me a coffee? www.buymeacoffee.com/diytechn... Forgetting standard house maintenance items can be costly. Avoid this by using my homeowner's and renter's quick reference:
www.diy-technician.com/produc... You can use cedar fence slats like I did or you can also use pallet wood. I made a few pairs of these using 5 1/2" wide by 6' long by 5/8" thick pieces purchased from Lowe. I had to spend some time sanding them but it was well worth it. We used popsicle sticks to get the proper and even spacing. This was a good excuse for me to also pick up some dewalt clamps to build these. Although I used my craftsman cordless brad nailer to put these together, you could use screws or even hand nail them together. I'll post the link to the decorative metal pieces we hammered into the cross members of the shutters. These were quick, cheap, and easy to make.

My favorite thing was the pink nail polish on his hands at the end 🙃

Now I have to eat a box of popsicles before I start ! Yay ! 😅😊
Damn fine job on both the shutters and the video. You have the perfect pace, and show the perfect amount of each step. If your videos were Goldilocks, they would be the Momma Bear... "Just right". 😀

Just built mine like this. Painted them black though with Sherwin Williams exterior paint so I'm going to try to find a lighter colored clavos to pop against the black. The end of the braces cut at a 45 degree angle looks nice.

Hey Thanks! I had to start with some real rough stuff then went finer. I’d get the combo pack if it were me. Take care.

Are you sure that's "cedar"? Typically, cedar boards are very expensive.

@@DIYTechnician Thank you for the reply. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get them from, and is it in the regular, main lumber aisle or elsewhere like the fencing material area or others?

@@n.g.1577 Of course, no problem. Cedar slats in the fencing material isle. I've purchased them from the cedar supply fencing store as well before as they can be a little cheaper there.
