Good job Rick,solid as a rock. James.
Herb would be proud
I’m building a floating corner shelf in my gym to temporarily hold a mini fridge .
I thought about Herb when I built the wall, and having a perfect right angle was a concern as the more accurate the angle was the easier the build would be .
Anyways when I put the square inside it , you couldn’t get a playing card between it at any point .
I must also add that having a Track Saw is an awesome tool to have in your arsenal when you need to cut a triangle.
The top fit in so well that you only have to give it a slight tap to make it drop into place .
I am going to paint it and add a front cap to it tomorrow with a piece of mdf and checker plate .
I had a concern that the middle of the shelf may sag after time , so I added two supports underneath,plus I secured a 2”x2” x 1/4” thick piece of angle iron to the back of the front 2by4

No Ice cream in the gym fridge ,but lots of beer lol.
The last time my neighbour come over to visit we killed a 15 pack in about 90 minutes , and of course I run out minutes after the beer store closed .
So I vowed never to let that happen again and bought a mini fridge on Black Friday so I had a place to store more cold beer .
There’s already one fridge built into the wall ,but it’s full of water . I’m planning on rebuilding that wall one day so I can accommodate this fridge . Then I’ll just use the floating shelf for other storage.
It was on sale at Walmart for $200 , regular $500 . 126 can capacity!

I went with Cambridge, as my local store owner was retiring and I saved a few bucks .
This is newer as mine is the previous model . The new one is the V2 .
I tested it on my home theatre system , as I stream all my CDs off my network drive in the basement. I RIP my CDs in WAV at the highest data rate of 44.100 ,and am very pleased with the sound .
I have a network connection on my home theatres pre pro , but I wanted to see if I could hear a difference.
I can’t , but apparently the Cambridge does sound better if you bypass the pre-pros DACs and go directly to analog .
