Hey great video. I had a somewhat relevant question. When you drilled in the floor it looked like you drilled in about 1/2" in past the wood. Is 1/2" generally all that is required to fasten wood into another surface? I am building an enclosure and trying to decide if I should go 1/2" and 3/4" into the wood it is being fastened to.

Usually I try to go into as much wood as possible to get a good connection. But for this specific video, the screws were more for stability so I wasn’t terribly concerned about the depth. Just make sure you know what you’re screwing into and that there’s nothing your screw will hit.

Would u say it’s alright to drill right into a laminate wood flooring? Under it is concrete… how would you approach this?

Another way to secure the base frame without drilling into anything is to use an adhesive glue. Something like liquid nail or loctite. These are very strong and will hold very well.

What size screws did you use?

I used 1 1/4 to make sure it reached the sub floor through the tile.

What wood did u use to give it the finish look in front

How much of an overhand did you leave for the top of the bench?

- I used 1 inch pin nails for the strips on the wall. - I used 2.5 inch finish nails to secure the bench to the cubbies. - To anchor the 2x4s into the subfloor I used 2.5 inch construction screws. *always check where you are nailing/drilling before proceeding

Why did you secure it to the floor? You've put permanent holes in the floor tile to do so. There was no need for that. Just secure it to the wall.

If you don’t want to secure it to the floor you don’t need to
