Project #3 will be a bookcase with sliding doors. The plans come from American Woodworker #130 Sept. ‘07.
The case will be walnut veneer ply with walnut hardwood for the remainder.
Some techniques I’ll exploring on this project are:
New…
1) Face frame construction
2) Sliding doors in dadoes
One more try…
3) More Festool Domino loose tenon joinery
4) Dovetail drawers
5) Re-saw stock for drawer bottoms
6) Edge-gluing and making flat table tops
But first step is to go through the stock pile and pull out some boards. I only have 2 sheets of ply on hand so that choice was pretty easy to make.
Let’s pick out some boards, chalk out the parts, then mill it S4S.
And here’s the sheet good.

Well it looks like the project is well underway – have a good build and let’s see some photos of the finished project. Is that a Performax 16-32 drum sander I see? It is one of the most often tools used in my shop.

Hi Bill,
Yes, that’s the Performax. I plan to use that to help flatten the top piece of this bookcase. It worked well in project #1.
