Thread: Bookcase

  1. #1

    Bookcase

    I finally got started on the bookcase that wanted to build for the extra bed/computer room. I went through many plans until I found one that I liked and that I could make work with the tools available to me. The plans that I found is for a 3' bookcase, I am building a 6' one, so I had to make modifications. I started it last week by building the sides and hope to get some more done this weekend. It is currently raining, being that I do my work outside, that ruins things for now. I will post updates.
    So mote it be.

    Are the shelves going to be 6' long? That's really long and you will get lots of sag if you don't have some support.

    And one other thing. NO PICS, DIDN'T HAPPEN!

    Gee, my shop is just like yours. A bit cold and drafty today.
    Cheers,

    Asking a stupid question is better than repairing a stupid mistake.
