Unique Book Case – Project of the Week
This week’s project comes from Steve in Chandler, AZ. Here’s what Steve had to say:
“My brother-in-law always has reference books sitting out for easy access. Atlases, dictionaries, etc. He has always wanted a library book-stand to display and read them on. So, I sketched out some ideas and the attached photos are the result. I used solid cherry and MDF-core cherry ply. There is a small drawer and a pull-out writing surface. A “secret” compartment hides below the drawer. The doors below are fitted with patterned glass. The pulls were made from walnut with an in-laid cherry strip. Finish was Danish oil and wipe-on poly. The finish on the top surface was rubbed out using pumice and rottenstone powders with paraffin oil.”
