    Check one off Santa's list.

    I started this project one week ago today, and here it is, in it's final glory, or at least how I'm giving it away. I still have to make the adjustable shelves. The main case is done though, with grommets for the shelf pins, so I'll be giving a new year's present of shelves.

    This is a bookcase to replace a Sauder one that my brother in law currently uses. It's red oak with English Chestnut stain and several coats of gloss Arm-r-seal. They never look as good in photos though.

          Yeah, I'd say that's an upgrade for your BIL!

          Looks great!

                  Excellent work Keith. Your choice of finish really makes the wood grain "pop".

                      Nice looking book case Keith. Like Tom said, it sure is an upgrade to what he has now...
