Locker shelf3/15/2023 ![]() ![]() So another reason to pull out the router table and a 3/8” round-over bit. It can “chip” if you hit the edge, but usually splits like the layered biscuits you make from those pressurized cans. This will deflect the impact of the skateboard helmet allowing the back of the locker to take the brunt of the damage and I won’t have to break out my table saw, router…blah, blah, blech again to make some more. Since the kids will be slamming stuff into them, I thought it would be good to round-over the front of each shelf, top and bottom. I planned to leave one or two lockers without any shelves, but have the finished shelves stored in case we changed our mind later. So some lockers could have two shelves, some have one shelf. So the shelf fit, and I cut a bunch more, roughly 12. When cut the dust is very fine, and combined with the resins, your lungs won’t be happy breathing this stuff. MDF is made from wood pulp and fibers, bound by resins and compressed to form the sheet. ![]() Speaking of…wear your safety glasses, and most certainly wear a respirator while cutting MDF. Now…all together…measure twice, cut once.Īnd cut only one and test fit it before making a bunch of sawdust. The pin fit perfectly in the factory shelf hole. I had a bunch of those shelf pins, or shelf supports, with a hole so you could fasten the support with a screw. More on MDF in the steps, now back to building shelves. I’ve been using it for over 25 years, when you had to special order it from a lumber supplier. I checked the stockpile™ and found some ¾” MDF. I didn’t have the time to bend up some metal on the brake, paint it, and the like. It was obvious they were some for shelves, metal shelves, that would be riveted in place. I noticed the lockers had quite a few holes punched from the factory for the many configurations they offer. Pretty much the same stuff I use to put in mine at school. They’re in the boys’ room and had the potential to hold, well…skateboards, pads, helmets, toy guns, army men, dirty socks, superhero capes, food they didn’t like, one or both of the cats, stinky shoes…y’know…boy’s stuff. So I have a bank of three lockers, three high. Or it would just hold your skateboard and a rat bones poster. Or you’d put pictures up in it of your girl. Or talk to a buddy about some girl three lockers down. Or *gasp* you’d share your locker with a girl. Or you’d meet your girl there at your locker. The pocket knife you found.Īnd she couldn’t go through it like your sock drawer. You could stash stuff you came across that didn’t (or shouldn’t) make it home for Mom to find.
