If, like me, you like wooden slat walls but think what they cost is over the top then consider building your own from scratch.

    The project is impressive, but what's more amazing is you managed to find that many straight pieces of timber from B&Q! 😁
  • @absbi0000
    One of the best Slat Wall guides on YouTube. A lot of thoughtful decisions made in your build. Thank you for sharing!
  • Whenever I plan a new DIY project, I always check to see if you have completed a similar project, as I know you will provide lots of helpful tips and advice. Keep up the good work.
  • Wow, the finish look is totally professional. It’s all in the details which I never would have thought and picked up a few tips on the way. Thanks.

    Hi Stuart. The CLS from B&Q still makes economic sense , especially as you say if you have the ability to cut it to size . Also if you spend a bit of time sorting through the pile , you can find some decent straight peace . As your wonderful statement wall demonstrates , even an average DIY centre can still provide the materials for most projects . And of course there open 7 days a week , and often well into the evening . Kind regards as always 👍

    Great job Stuart. Very nice indeed. Very well thought out and planned as we've come to expect from you. 👌🏻

    I did a slat wall recently, skipped the mdf, just used battens on the wall, paint all behind black, then jut pin them on. Stained them when they were up. Look great. Went to a local timber merchant for wood, as better quality and cheaper than big brands.
  • @andrewandlm
    You are an absolute mind reader. I've literally just measured up and purchased the wood for this exact job the wife wants doing. Gonna grab a brew and watch the vid. Epic

    Great job Stuart and it looks impressive. All that and a fantastic saving too!
  • @DiHandley
    I’ve got to hand it to you Stuart, that is a spectacular result. I imagine that it would also be good at reducing sound levels in the room. 10/10

    your cinematography is getting better and better. 14:23 shows it :) the project is also super interesting: easy-ish, profitable and trendy
  • @GonzaHero
    Brilliant! Your experience clearly showed in your strategy and approach. I learned a lot in 7 mins (2x speed lol). Thank you.
  • @sharadkumar8365
    of so many videos on the subject, this is by far the best one i have seen. it explains everything well, it shows how its done, and you dont own a whole workshop and an armoury of high end massive cutting gear or tools which most people wont own. hence its practical and not showing off lol. thank you , much appreciate it. :)
  • @thedj5914
    Absolutely superb Stuart 👍 Doing this for a friend soon so spot on with the timing 😆
  • @shaunsmith690
    A great job there Stuart looks well impressive .Keep the video,s coming matey.
  • @HB26244
    Great video! I build one these last year, just because I was outraged by the cost of these acoustic panels. My only problem now is that by using construction lumber aka pine the slats have turned a bit yellow. Any tips on staining or oils that could prevent this in the future? Keep making these video’s! I love how you use the tools all of us can afford.
  • @niallmartin4098
    Sounds like a great idea and I've been meaning to have a go for a while. One thing i would say PLEASE setup and outfeed table for your table saw, even if it is something as simple as some boxes. If your rip cutting for and hour its worth the time investment for the safety.
  • @1971wizzard
    Thanks Stuart for another slick, well presented and thoroughly enjoyable episode. You really are a great maker. Your construction theory and advice are second to none…. I just think you are fantastic at this and more power to you buddy!!!
