Kids Bookcase

I have the pieces to the top all roughed out. So now you can finally see the "V" taking shape. I think I will just do a finger joint for the sides. I just don't feel comfortable cutting dovetails on angled grain yet. I will be adding a divider in the middle so as to have 2 sections.






This is a close-up of the boards I am using for the top. These were from the kitchen re-model we did recently. They are very nice single plank boards 11 1/2" wide. These would cost about $5 ft. new. That's alot of money saved.


Also, I will be making a shooting board to trim the ends of the pieces.
