Converting My Garage Into a Golf Simulator. SHE'S PISSED!

What happens here

Cut a piece of plywood or suitable wood to the desired length and depth for your shelf. Construct two corbels (triangular supports) from 2x4 lumber. Stain the shelf and corbels with a walnut-colored gel stain for a professional finish. Once dry, locate wall studs using a stud finder and securely screw the corbels to the wall. Then, place the stained shelf on top of the corbels and secure it with screws from underneath or through the top into the corbels. This shelf will house your iPad (used for the simulator program), charging cables, and other accessories, with space beneath for golf bags.

Goal: This step details the construction and installation of a wooden shelf that serves as a desk for the simulator's control tablet, accessories, and golf bags, enhancing the functionality and organization of the space.
