What happens here

Floating shelves are created from composite material, with mitered edges glued and clamped for a seamless look. These shelves are then carefully leveled and screwed into place on the privacy wall panels, designed to hold decorative items or drinks. The worker ensures a secure fit by driving screws through the back of the shelves into the sturdy vertical slats of the privacy wall. This process adds functionality and a finished aesthetic to the privacy wall design.

Goal: Cut, prepare, and install floating shelves on the privacy wall, ensuring they are level and securely attached.

What they say

It's mint. It's really mint. All right. I got this contraption happening right now. These are These are like my shelves for over here. I'm going to wait till we got a little bit I'm going to see how that works. I'll show you what I did. It's pretty simple, but I've got it glued and I'm I'm making sure they're all clamped together and they and they cure together. So, right now I'm going to jump on the mantle. Got a 75-in TV going here. I want the mantle to be a little bit wider than that, so we're going to go 6 ft and we're going to miter fold it. We're going to see how this works with the acre material. It's kind of PVC base, so we're using PVC glue on it. But, we got a lot of a lot of miters to rip and cut and all that kind of stuff. So, watch it come together. >> Here's the last step. We've got our our holes drilled out, nice and big. I can glob some glue in there. And boom. Little wiggly, right? Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to fill it up with glue. I want a good amount of adhesive in here. And what I'm going to do is kind of piggyback off of the original idea I had, which was drive some screws through the back of this into here just temporarily. Just to hold it plumb while that glue sets, and we'll be good. But already looks pretty dang nice. So, got them all set, level, all that good stuff.
