Built in bookcase, part the first

Volume 9, Issue 108; 31 Oct 2006; last modified 08 Oct 2010

The wall, the plans, and the raw materials.

Not inexpensive materials, either. A bit pusher working with hardware: no one is more afraid than I.

Exciting!

But please don't tell me you'll actually make it "built in" - the wall will stay where it is, right?

Where's the dog going to sit in future?

The wall will stay, Morten, but the bookcase will be permanently attached to it. David, I'm sure there will be room in front of the bookcase for Ralphie.

I was wondering about the dog too. Echoes of Edgar Allen Poe's black cat...

Measure twice, cut once. Cheers, Tony.
