Small Desk

This is a small desk that I built to go between the bookshelves.  The desk is built from the leftovers from the bookshelf build and finished with Danish Oil and wax.  




Honestly I think the bookshelves look better moved apart.

Bookshelves - Part 5

The bookshelves are finally completed and installed.  This was one of the largest projects that I have done, and I am incredibly pleased with the results.

Bookshelves - Part 2

Back panel glued on (I need more clamps!)

Fitting the face frame.  I am still figuring out how I want this to look so I haven't put the face-frame on yet.

All of the shelves are completed with a 1/4" thick piece of solid walnut glued to the front of each shelf.  The movable shelves were done with the Kreg Shelf Jig with only three holes per shelf.

Bookshelves - Part 1

I have put this project on hold, primarily because I knew that it would be a lot of work.  These bookcases will be 7' tall x 32" wide and will be made out of Walnut plywood and solid Walnut.  The case is joined together with 5mm domino's.

Getting ready for the first cut on the 4x8 sheet of Walnut.  At $130/sheet, this was a little unnerving.
