(do it yourself in 2 hours !!! drawings and step-by-step photos of manufacturing)

The author claims that he managed to make all the details of the shelf and assemble the entire structure in 2 hours. The rest of the time was spent on painting, varnishing and drying.

The very design of such a shelf of the shelf suggests that no nails will be needed to make it. Importantso that all the shelves sit very tightly in their places, so that the shelf does not swing. If the connecting holes have failed and some shelves are loose in their places, then the shelves in these places can be screwed on, or, as the author advises, just drive pieces and pieces of wood into the grooves.

We also recommend that you do not forget to screw the shelf to the wall so that it does not fall inadvertently)))

Shelf made of plywood (MDF) for books and souvenirs. Drawing scheme

A bookshelf made of plywood, which you can easily make with your own hands according to the drawings indicated below.

1) We cut 5 blanks of the shelf from plywood (see drawing). To do this, it is convenient to make a template from hardboard or durable cardboard and circle it on plywood, and then cut out the details.

2) On vertical racks at the back, we outline the location of the hinges and with a groove cutter (chisel, etc.), carefully cut out the grooves under them, constantly checking the accuracy of their location and the compliance with the metal hinges.

3) The outer ends of the plywood are glued with an edge band of veneer.

4) We assemble the entire structure with PVA glue and self-tapping screws, first check to see if the angle is 90 degrees.
5) We cover our hinged shelves with stain or varnish and screw in the hinges.

This shelf will look great also from solid pine or other wood species. The main interest and desire.

Glowing !!! wooden shelf

Author idea designer Matt Brown

To make such a magical glowing bookshelf with your own hands you will need embossed boards (with knots, notches, cracks of an unusual shape) and a mixture of polyester resins and fluorescent, luminescent pigments, you can buy on Ali.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-pigment -resin.html

Pour the mixture into the cracks and seal the cracks with tape. When pouring, use the level so that the shelf is completely horizontal when pouring. Also, when pouring, make sure that the mixture does not spill over the edges of the cracks.

The next step is grinding. When everything dries, you can remove the tape and gently grind the surface.

Having finished grinding, cover the shelf with varnish-fixer in 8-9 layers

In the dark, the shelf will shine!

Folding wall shelf

Shown here how to make a folding shelf on the wall for books. The structure is made of wood panels arranged horizontally, like a regular shelf, but if necessary, they can be rotated 90 ° vertically. At the expense of practicality and functionality, you can bet, but it’s cool and takes up little space. In addition, no large costs are required, the author made this folding shelf using two sheets of laminated plywood, which used to be part of the old table. In general, the idea is this.

A folding shelf on the wall consists of long planks (which work like shelves), alternating with short planks (which work as supports).

Photos of two positions. At the beginning of each long part there is a triangle, this is a stop block. It is cut at an angle of 45 °, and allows the shelf to fold vertically and lock in a horizontal position. Stop blocks alternate with short parts that serve as a support. They allow long parts to rotate freely 90 °, staying in place and not clinging to other parts.

Take 2 cm thick laminated plywood. To make a shelf (26 cm x 25 cm) x 5 cm from 2 cm thick laminated plywood you will need 13 parts:

• 7x (26 cm x 5 cm) for shelf and retainer blocks
• 6x (10 cm x 5 cm) for support legs

To smoothly cut all the parts, the author marked all the pieces and fastened the laminated plywood to the workbench. The photo shows a shear test done before cutting plywood to make sure the measurements are correct.

The holes for the rod are located at half height (2.5 cm) and at a distance of 7.5 cm on one side. To mark them in the right place, take the bar and make two small ones 5 cm and 10 cm above and on the lower edges.

• Install the stop block.
• Drill holes in the remaining trims.

Note. If you use a stop block, you can quickly make many holes in one place in different areas, measuring and marking only one of them.

How to install the hinge

The hinge allows you to connect the support strips with long rails so that they can rotate up and down 90 °. If you do not have a threaded rod, you can use the handle of the bucket as a hinge. Just straighten it using a vise.

Stop blocks are the most important part of the shelf. To make them, saw off each of the 7 long rails at an angle of 45 °. You can do it as an author, holding all 7 pieces, to evenly cut in the same place.

Note. Be sure to mark the number on both parts (shelf and triangle) to quickly find the part you need.

Then glue the stop blocks to the support rails. To do this, glue the triangles, alternating them into shorter pieces. Apply glue, and then glue the pieces in place, covering the laminated surfaces with tape. Now you can put the rod in place and check how it works.

In the photographs, look at the movements that each of the 7 long slats should make. They should begin with the stop of the locking block, and stop vertically against the edge of the triangle. Once the movement is perfect, you can deploy the hinge. Cut off the excess, and then use a ball-head hammer to smooth the end. Finish the surface with a grinder.

To hang up, you can use two invisible wall sockets.

1. Mark the center on the side of the second and fourth support and drill holes.
2. Take a drill for walls of the same size, and make two holes in the wall at a distance of 11.5 cm.
3. Insert the plastic spring studs into the wall with a hammer, and then screw in the hexagonal rods.
4. Finally, push the shelf onto the invisible wall sockets until they are fully inserted into the support rails.

You can use strong glue, such as epoxy, to make the fastener stronger, but if the holes are the right size, glue is not needed.

• laminated plywood
• threaded rod
• 2 wall sockets

Secret door - cupboard and bookshelf

Let's see how to make a secret door in an apartment, for example, in a closet, in the dressing room, in the wall.

If you want to make a secret room, or to hide some unsightly part of the apartment, in order to make a more aesthetic look, then follow the instructions below in step-by-step photos.

Do not use loops because your the design must withstand up to 450 kg! The author of the photo advises using bolts as pivot pins to be welded in the frame.

IMPORTANT fix the frame vertically, for this you should use a plumb line. First attach the top mount to the ceiling, and then plumb the bottom mount (see photo).

Soaring shelf on the wall

A great bookshelf for anyone looking for original design solutions. Production does not take much time, and it will cost inexpensively. The idea is to fix a wooden block with guides on which a plywood frame box is put on the wall. The most reliable way to fasten the support bar is to hammer the anchor into the wall, and then use threaded rods. To achieve greater accuracy, make a cardboard template, which will repeat the contour of the back of the shelf, then you definitely will not lose with the holes.

Original transformer bookshelf

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why the original and why the transformer? Because this the floor bookshelf is not quite a shelf, it consists of three stools or, if you like, tables folded sideways on top of one another. Everything is simple and tasteful. In general, you need to make these three separate parts, of course, and more, you get a real bookcase. True, the construction is not very reliable, if there are children in the house, then you need to come up with a way how to fix this whole thing. In general, if you liked the idea, see the master class in step-by-step photos.

Bookshelf CACHE
(with secret compartment)

Very Secret Bookshelf)))

The author of the photo jcapili bought a dressing table from Ikea decided to make it secret compartment hidden behind books.

He took a wooden box and attached to it from below the runners, so that the box could easily slide on the shelf
Then he attached books to the front of the drawer (see the photo below for the method of attachment).

TIP: it is advisable to take for this boring books that no one would think to read;)
As you can see in 19 photos, the master cut out the core from books, this was done in order to facilitate the design, because According to jcapili, books coolly outweigh the drawer when pulled out.
This design can be converted to a shelf with a secret compartment for storing weapons.

ATTENTION!!! Use a sprayer, as when cutting and drilling books, an unusually large amount of fine paper dust is formed, which is very easy to inhale.

Also when drilling need to hold books tight, because if the sheets of the book are pressed against each other loosely, paper chips will accumulate from the drill between the sheets, which will significantly increase the volume of books.

Corner bookshelf LED backlit

Such a shelf will create a cozy and welcoming atmosphere in your room.

You can cut the shelves yourself, or you can simply order at the nearest furniture factory. Just enter in the search the query "sawed chipboard by the size of the customer" and Yandex will give you those companies that are engaged in this. Just say what you want and they will cut everything for you in the best possible way, it will not cost much. Cheaper than your time for drinking!

BUT, we advise you to responsibly approach the choice of FONT, it should be so bold that the letters have as empty space as possible - so beautiful.

After you fasten the central boards perpendicularly, it will be possible to determine the markings for the LED strip so that the light is distributed evenly. This is nothing complicated, just do not miss this moment.

The central boards (angular) should be painted only on the outside, so that the inside retains its reflectivity.

Do-it-yourself invisible bookshelf (3 variants)

See below a step-by-step photo of the simplest invisible bookshelf (no comment)

Invisible shelf on homemade brackets

Brackets for an invisible shelf can be made with your own hands very simply. We take a strip of steel, which in strength does not bend under the weight of books. Bend the strip into the bracket, drill holesfor wall mounting. We cut our bracket and the brackets are ready)))

In the photo, the author used a large book with a dust jacket for foundation - this is a great idea!, which will help to dispense with the glue, which is usually necessary for fixing the bottom cover of the book.

Inverted bookshelf

(Inverted Bookshelf)

The utility coefficient of this shelf is 2 times larger than a conventional shelf, because not only the top surface of the shelf is used, BUT AND THE BOTTOM side !!! We simply fasten the gum of a given length with a stapler and fix the books with these gum.

Plywood book stand

For such a stand you will need many small pieces cut from thick plywood. You can use and prosperity, it does not matter, the main thing is the idea itself. Then just glue these sawn boards to the configuration we need. Dimensions and shape can be chosen arbitrarily, each has its own “desktop” books.

Bookshelf made of branches and snags

All you need for this shelf is dry snag branches (the author of the photo found them on the beach), glass (on which books will stand) and twine (to fix the snags together). After fastening the driftwood, we recommend lacquering them. Making such a shelf is pretty budgetary and does not require you great physical strength. See the process of creation from step by step photos below.

Art Nouveau shelf

   

The author calls his shelf ULTIMATE (Ultra Modern). The combination of right angles to irregularly applied symmetry makes this shelf truly Ultra Modern. Some side edges are painted black to give an accent.

Since the shelf is very simple, then, in principle, there is nothing more to be said about creating the shelf, what would you not be able to learn from the step-by-step photos of the master class located below in the gallery.

It so happened that the author’s neighbor decided to throw out some old furniture and asked the author if he needed anything. The author took only drawers from the curbstone, for a long time they gathered dust in the garage, until such a shelf was made of them. Just arrange the drawers as you like and fasten them with screws. Painting at will.

(Shelf) Bookcase from water pipes
do it yourself

When choosing which pipes to make the rack, the author of the photo had difficulties:

• PVC cheap, easy to process, but not elastic enough - will not withstand heavy loadswhich the rack suggests. PVC pipes are suitable for small shelves
• Galvanized steel pipes, more expensive than PVC, strong, durable, but harder to handle.
• Copper pipesare fairly easy to process, stronger than PVC and reasonably affordable.

Therefore, the author's choice fell on copper pipes ....

Attention in this design I am absent back diagonal beams, which usually give stability to wooden shelves, here they are replaced by horizontal supports, which are located under the massive shelves (see photo). The diagonal supports are removed for aesthetics to fully open the back wall. In this case, it is still worth attaching the rack to the wall, which will give additional stability.

This pipe rack can be used for books, flowers, toys, a children's room, perfect for tools in the garage, for shoes, as well as for garden tools in the country

See the rest in the visual step-by-step guide below, presented as a gallery.

Shelf shelf from floor to ceiling on struts

 

As you can see from the step-by-step photos below, the author of the photo made an interesting option of fastening shelves with compression systems. Unscrewing the bolts at the ends of the pipes, you can fixa shelf between the floor and the ceiling, so our shelf can do perfectly without a wall as a support, and can also be placed in any open place in the room.

.... another option for such a shelf

Rack of 3 pipes from floor to ceiling.

This shelf from galvanized pipes belongs to racks, her plus isthat she fixed in the apartment without a single hole !!! in a wall or ceiling, and can be located away from walls. The method of fastening our shelf is based on the clamps between the floor and the ceiling. According to the author of the photo, making this shelf with your own hands is not at all difficult. So let's look at the features ...

For the rack, the author used flanges, which, unfortunately, had an inner lip. Therefore, the first thing the author had to remove this part of the flange so that the pipes would pass freely inside the flange (see photo 2-7).

Next, we cut the pipes necessary for us to be long. When measuring the length of pipes that we need, we must take into account the width of the clamp that will stand between the pipes. This clip should not be too short or too long !!!

The author made a clamp between two pipes (short and long) at the top of the rack, under the stream. But later he came to the conclusion that a short pipe is not needed here, the clamp can be arranged in such a way that it will rest directly against the flange. The presence of a small pipe weakens the stability of the rack (see photo 11). Do not forget to rinse the pipes in soapy water before installation.

Next, cut holes in the shelves for pipes. The author advises putting all the shelves on top of each other, and on the marked upper shelf, as by patternDrill all three holes in all the shelves at once.

Mounting a shelf is not difficult, just collect the shelf from the bottom according to the step-by-step photos of the master class located below in the gallery.
