The only video on KZread that explains clearly and uses regular tools. Also you didn't make me feel like you need 20 years in carpentry to manage this project. You deserve an award, seriously! 👏😘

That truly is quite an incredible accomplishment to make your own shutters like that. I didn't know it was even possible, I thought they had to be done in a factory.

This is incredible, for someone who hasn’t got all the best tools or years of experience. The pros need to take note.
Fantastic video. Save thousands of $$$ at home depot if you have $30k worth of machinery in your basement. Nope..Just get along to B&Q and use your home drill,sander and paint brush and most of all your ingenuity and intelligence and for £48 quid voila! Brilliant well done , as others have said, best DIY video on KZread. 10/10
