Home&Lifestyle| PAGE 23 Do it your-shelf Shelf space is a great way to store items such as plants, books and other trinkets you may want to display. They're also easy to build, here's how you can do it. What you'll need: - 4mm 8g countersunk timber screws - 12mm and 3mm drill bits - 13mm wall anchors - x3 - 40mm 10g chipboard screws - 150mm x 200mm x 25mm 90-degree brackets - x2 - 600mm x 100mm x 30mm plywood - Black spray paint - Cordless drill - Dust mask - Ear muffs - Measuring tape - Phillips head screwdriver - Spirit level - Stud finder 1. Locate the studs in your wall - Before you hang your shelf, you'll need to work out where you'd like it to go and check to see whether there are any wall studs. Use a stud finder to locate them - it will beep when you locate one. 2. Mark where you want the shelf Hold the shelf where you would like it to go, and mark the height with a pencil - this is where you'll screw in your brackets. Use a spirit level to make sure everything is straight. 3. Mark your screw points Grab your shelf brackets, place them up against the wall, and mark where your screws will go. Then get your power drill and drill directly into the stud. 4. Screw your bracket in Once you've drilled your holes, you can screw in the brackets with the drill. When using your drill, don't forget to use safety glasses. 5. Hang and secure your shelf Once your mounting brackets are secured into the wall, grab your shelf and make sure it's central to the brackets. Then locate your screws and use your drill to secure them into the wood from the bottom of the brackets. RECREATIONAL COMMUNITY CENTRE With heated Indoor Pool.
