Bookcase for Children's Books

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


DW retired after 35 years of teaching last Summer. While the long term plan is for the books in her classroom library to be passed on, we needed an interval home for them while they make their way from boxes in the basement to new readers. Thus this bookcase which serves as a temporary home for the kid's books prior to leaving the house.
The interesting aspects of the build were due to the size of the unit- 90 inches high, by 72” wide but relatively shallow at 7.25” deep. Use of knockdown assembly (think flat box furniture) make moving and installing the floor to ceiling height bookcase. The Bessey clamp extender feature made clamping the side panels length wise possible. Having lots of clamps of varying lengths came in handy as well as did having work tables and the drill press on wheels.
