DIY Rustic Floating Shelves with LED Under Lighting
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Join me as I go over the DIY build of these rustic floating shelves with LED lighting underneath. These are made to look like one solid piece of wood that has been weathered and damaged, giving the shelves a one of a kind look. These can be made to pretty much any size. I used 1x10 and 1x8 pine boards.

Stay away from light metal that is hollow. Those will resonate with the large subs. I am thinking figures from your favorite movies that are solid plastic or metal. Purely for the bounce around problem.

Yea I'll probably have to watch things that are too light... There's some vibrations (obviously lol) but I don't know if it would be enough to knock anything off. Not within a few movies anyways...

Great job as always. Question: Why did you have to cut the 45 degree, and then use the miter saw?. Not sure the difference in the cuts? Why not use your table saw if its just at a different angle?
@LifeofBliss
4 жыл бұрын
It was still a 45 degree angle. It was just easier cutting the short edge of the long boards on the miter vs trying to slide those long boards on the table saw. Just personal preference. You could do it on the table saw if you wanted
I want to make one, but my home foundation are from bricks, how can i hide the wire? 🤔😞

There is a link in the description, they are from a website called super bright leds. I go over the wiring in the video, but they just need a 12v power source. I used a power inverter to get the 12v power to them

That wiring was placed before sheetrock knowing I was going to do this. You can always snake wire up a wall in the same stud cavity, but going across the wall would be more difficult and messy...
Did the one LV transformer serve all of the recessed LED lights??? If not, how many did you utilize? This is beautiful work my man. How did you split the 16 gauge wire running to each LED? Thanks in advance!!!
@LifeofBliss
3 жыл бұрын
One LV transformer. Just calculate the total wattage draw and get on suitable for it. The LEDs just had a positive and negative ran to each, piggy backed off each other. As long as you make a positive to negative loop throughout all the lights back to the transformer
What's the exact lights you used? Was it all a complete kit? Did the 12v converter come with it or did you buy that separately? Also, do you have to use banana plugs or was that something you wanted to use? I have the electrician coming over to do some wiring on my new entertainments area and I want to include some lights on my floating shelves!
Looks good! Would you have details or link to the power supply/inverter you used

Interested in the wiring setup for puck lights. What wire did you run to shelves?

Just 14 gauge in wall speaker wire. All you need is a positive and negative. You could probably get away with 18 gauge wire since leds take nothing to power

Sorry man, I don't live there anymore so I can give exact dimensions. The mantel was about 8-9 inches thick and the shelves were closer to 5-6 inches thick. Each were about 8 inches deep
How far from the countertop did you place the shelves. I’m planning to do this on a new construction house. Having a hard time deciding on spacing for the wiring rough in

We don't live there anymore, but it was at least 16 inches off the top of the counter I would say
My question is how did you get the 16 gauge wired from the left wall across to the right wall? Or was it pre wired before the wall was put there?
