This is the best way I have found to build floating shelves. This method was born from my dislike for miter folded shelf fronts. It's my belief that a plywood miter fold creates a low integrity corner with only about a millimeter of wood veneer (that's not much). The shelves I build in this video have a full quarter inch (1/4") of solid hardwood at the corners and across the entire shelf front. Durability is important to me.
Just to clarify, I don't dislike ALL miter folds, just plywood miter folds.
