  • Give eye contact to warn the dumb ones "Do not over tighten!" Most schmucks don't ave a clue about putting in screw, stripping... all of that. I appreciate these videos very much! I feel empowered. I used to work with precision mechanical assembly, but am a nu-bee at home improvement. Sheet rock, electrical and plumbing, all new. First time is interesting, the second time, it gets fun. Thanks!

  • There is a much simpler shelving system to install that can fufill the exact same purpose. All of the shelves and brackets are constructed with solid oak and they only require a level and screwdriver to install. Best of all they require no studs for installation so you can place your shelves anywhere upon your wall. Search 'Wooden You Shelving'

  • The only way is spring toggle if you have a bit of heavy stuff on shelving, anything other is pants

  • You've got studs in the wall and you're using zip-its? It is well worth the time and effort to find studs with a studfinder..simply a better, safer job. The other thing is that this whole thing could have been done on 1 ten minute video...lol

  • @Broncort1 Most walls do have studs and he's very aware of this I'm sure. He's demonstrating how to install without using the studs, ie, where the person watching may be installing them doesn't have studs. Or to put it another way, when you're installing most of the time, you may not have studs for every bracket. And yep a longer vid would a been cool

  • The standards really should be mounted on the studs...

  • Thanks for the help, Dominic. Good video, sir. 

  • good vid

  • thanks for showing this video clips....is some skill you got there....wat'bout you teach me how to install a bracket on a concrete wall.....sometimes you work till you sweat but not earn much....is this skill is simple....can't earn much.....

  • thank u very much for this video.. i got a mini drill and wanted to install some shelves in my room.. i just want to do new things that's why i want to do this too.. **i am a gal**

  • I'm starting to avoid Expert Village videos. They ALL have some usability problems, especially the matter of not numbering them so that you have to click and click to see which video is the beginning and which should be next. In the end, there isn't enough unique material to be worth the bother.

  • so did he just screw that anchor directly in a dry wall ? or a stud ?

  • PLUMB, PLUMB, PLUMB not level Mr Expert You are checking plumb

  • @597jim You "K-N-O-W" damn well what he meant..unless you're one of those retards that have ZERO common sense. No need to get cute and PROVE you know what it's called bro, I'm sure he does too.

  • @597jim > '.. PLUMB not level ..'

    Oh, come on. He's using an i-beam level to ensure his work is both vertically (each piece) and horizontally (the two pieces) level, so the word "level" is perfectably acceptable in this context.

  • Thank you Eric, I had been working with anchors for a long time and realised I have been doing this wrong.

  • he needs to run

  • that could spell trouble for anyone in the vicinity

  • Can you use any typical wood screw in these anchors?

  • I FINALLY saw some of what I was looking for...I too wish they were numbered or in better order so I can see what's next. I'm a "tryin to do it myself" mom. but thanks for the video....and help.

  • for fuck sake, if you are using a standard like that just find a stud and fuck the anchors, expertvillage is a disgrace to craftsman

  • tees tings

  • You are checking plumb and not the level. Can you see the difference?

  • Everything ok but this time you were checking plumb and not level weren't you?

  • Please learn how to NUMBER your segments so we know what order they should be watched in.

  • thanks!!!!

  • nice video.

  • Good stuff! Ty.

  • Very subtle. Great job!
