I'm in the planning stages of building some shelving. Are

you've been planning on building a shelf for a few YEARS? are you mentally disabled?

>>1029494
No I been thinking of what to build in there for a few years. It started out that it was going to be a bed frame but the ceiling was too low.

Mostly I just want it to stand up to getting bashed. at with a hammer or something so I'm probably going to use plywood for the parts covering the frame.

>>1029497
Well the ceiling was the deciding factor, there is other shelving and drawers in there too that take up a lot of the floor space.
I don't really live there all the time I have to leave for months at a time. But like in terms of how much space it takes up I'm pretty set on this.

Your sentences are rambling and barely intelligible. If you aren't capable of stringing thoughts together coherently you shouldn't be using power tools. Can you rub together your few brain cells and try to explain WHAT you want? Are you capable of drawing and measuring what you need? It doesn't sound like it and either way you're going to go full homer simpson on anything you attempt to construct otherwise. What the fuck are we supposed to help you with?

I've done minor woodwork, the stuff I got paid for was superficial look nice stuff onto an already existing structure I didn't get to plan those out ahead of time. That means I had to measure it. It doesn't look nice if you don't measure it to fit. I suppose it takes a few more brain cells that having /o/ or /diy/ threads open to shit post but why don't you decide?
I don't need to draw it, just write down the measurements for the right spots I know how it goes together in my mind.

I'm trying to think of why you're being such a big faggot and the only thing I can come up with is that you don't think I can't sit around for fucking hours and fit butterfly joints together after I cut out the major pieces, unless your a /pol/ poster that came here to build a log cabin because it sounds so great to live off the grid.

>shelving
>stick them together
>butterfly joints

wat?

this is why you draw it out

>>1029524
Well I been throwing a few back and don't usually tell people what I'm really going to do so it might not sound concise. It's going to be more of a cabinet. Just going to build shelving onto it.

>>1029528
The cabinet parts not important there's not going to be anything valuable in there. It'll just look like sturdy shelving that's too heavy and big to pick up for one person.

>building some shelving
OK, easy
>I want joints to be hidden from the outside but I'd like to make it sturdy.
Sure, we can think something out
>The shelf is going to be angled to cover the floor at a 90 degree angle sort of like L shaped to fit a corner so it'll have at least 6 points where it joins in.
Err... What?
> I just know roughly how I want the primary structure to be before I get into adding hinges and stuff or trying to disguise it.
Wait, so now it has doors? So it's like a cabinet of some sort?

Nigga WTF are you trying to make? Make some rough sketch in MS Paint and post it in thread because from your vague descriptions I have no idea what do you want.
