    Bookcase from Black Oak.

    Made this for a 5 yr old relative. Should be a lifer!

    Finish is BLO applied smoking hot. All the wood from the same tree, just different parts!
    Double wedged through tenons, beaded front edges for that sophisticated look ie: books worth reading!
    Shelves won’t be sagging anytime this century. Weighs about 90lb!
    Build thread on the Neanderthals.

    It's very nice. Like the through tenons. Classy.

    It’s interesting piece that has a smoky look to the edge. Be sure to attach it to wall because it looks like a fun piece to climb.
