I needed some shelves for my condo and decided to take on the project myself.

Other misc. supplies that I had to use but had on hand in my workshop include: brad nails, sand paper, wood glue and a plug cutter to help recess the wood screws.

    Nice wood and looks like good quality work. Did you use birch wood shelves? Are the shelves movaable? Any after photos? I live in a condo and need DVD storage units.
