Hi i need help finding a key hole hanger.
only one i can find is like the one posted in the picture from woodcraft, but i need one like the other picture.
it is to hang a 12 in by 3 foot shelf with made from oak about 9/16 thick. That will hold 1/18 scale collector cars.
if someone has a better solution on hanging a shelf, please let me know. 
Also may need some 4/4 mahogany that when finished will look like the picture  |

I have, many times, used a keyhole router bit directly in the shelf. For shelves less than 2" thick I run the keyholes sideways rather than vertical. I tighten the screws until I have to force the shelf over the heads of the screws and the shelf is very tight to the wall.

Get some 3/8" round rod, find studs in the wall and drill for the rod. Then drill matching holes in the shelf. Push shelf over rods. Should only need two pins since its a small shelf with very little weight on it.
Another option is to get some scrap steel and make your own. You could cut them out of just about anything that is about 1/8" thick or so. | |

Can't help you on the keyhole hangers, but on the Mahogany, Wall lumber has UPS bundles that are priced reasonably IMO. | |

GOOD JOB ! 
The shelf came out nice, I'm glad that you stuck with it and saw the job through.
Good Luck.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools. 
Heard from a client..."If I had your tools and experience...I could do it myself"
