How to Build a Bookcase: Step-by-Step Woodworking Plans
American Artist I built my first bookcase in middle school. A multitiered assemblage of wooden planks laid across stacks of bricks, it was reminiscent of pieces from the early Flintstone Period--and I was proud to have made it myself. Since that masterpiece, I've built 50 or 60 more, most while working as a cabinetmaker for an interior design firm, where I learned the carpentry skills, design guidelines and construction techniques used in the bookcase shown here. On permanent display: mahogany, solid biscuit joints--and a whole lot of class. Making Choices Two pieces of plywood form each side of the cases. The shelves fit into dado joints routed into the case sides.
