Steve Good magazine holder (tweaked)

Modified this Steve Good magazine holder pattern a bit.  Stretched out the front piece (actually, just cut three of them end-to-end, one long piece), added two additional dividers in the middle (stack-cut 4, then notched out the front on the two middle pieces so that the front piece would fit, as the original design called for the front piece to be attached on the inside of the sides, not to the front of the sides), and opened up the back a bit (didn't have enough 1/4 BB ply to make a solid back).    Were I going to make another one, I would attach the front and back pieces to the front and back of the sides/middle, as having them recessed the thickness of the ply reduced the front-to-back space just enough that some of my pattern books didn't fit.  Still, it helps to clean up my office desk, so overall I'd call it a win!  Lots of curves to this one, it was a fun cut overall.

Very nice cutting and assembly. Alas I shall not make one. I have divested myself of nearly every magazine and book I've collected over 50 years. That includes my scroll saw magazines. I do have a book on mechanical gadgets and a book on scroll saw clocks. Time has come. My wife would have no idea what do with it all. Actually quite a relief.
