French cleat wall

Do you want a tool wall that you can change whenever you want? Let's get after it. I'm going to start by ripping this 3/4 inch plywood into 3-in strips. You can either use a table saw or a circular saw. I'm going to go ahead and try the table saw first and see how that works. Now that we got our 3-in strips cut, we're going to put a 45 on them. I put my table saw to a 45 and I set it to about 2 and 1/2 inches on my fence. I got all my pieces cut. I got the 45s put on all of them. I'm going to hit it with some sandpaper and then I'm going to stain it with this dark walnut. I got them all stained. Let's get them hung. I went and notched the bottom of the French cleat to sit over this metal. This is going to sit just like this. So, I'm throwing this up with finishing nails first and then we'll come back through and we'll screw it all in. Got the first row on. I cut these 12-in spacer blocks for here. Now, I'm going to put the second row on and then we're going to go up a little higher. We're going to do a third row and then we'll do the same thing on our side. I just went ahead and made this super simple mount here. You got piece of your French cleat on the back, 1 by 4 on the front. I dropped two screws in it. Clips on there. Now, you can hang stuff. I got some French cleats to do. I'll catch you guys later. Peace.
