frieke Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Today I finished my big bookcase, made in mdf 18mm. I'm not gonna paint it for now, maybe next year or so when whe paint the corridor. I still have to remove the pencil with a gum and fill up the holes of the screws. I used the lamello machine to put it all together with cookies(hope google translate it right). And then I finally can put all my books in it. The bookcase is 3.10m wide and 1.22m high. I only have books of woodworking and craftworks, and lots off magazines. Hope the bookcase is big enough Enjoy the pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampa Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 That looks great, will look better when painted and the books are in place, great job. Googles translation made me giggle, I think the word you was after was Biscuits mind you I have never tried cookies, I think chocolate chip will make a mess ........Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hey, that does look nice. So, I guess you do more than scrolling. By the way, I've had some cookies that would probably work well in your joinery. I knew what you meant. Thanks for sharing the photos and let us know when it's painted and full of books.

stang67 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Looks great and I use the biscuits all the time they work really well. Sometime look at the Kreg jig( pocket holes) it works great on almost anything. I use it on everything benches and cabinet faces. Keep on cutting Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
