Hi All
I am hoping someone may be able to give some insight, I wish to
make some
fitted book selves. I intend to use pegs to support / adjust the
shelves,
and I am concerned about how to drill the holes accurately. I
am currently
considering two options, buying a jig like this
http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.a...55&src=froogle
and using
this or sending them to a local CNC routing company and having
them do it.
As way of background I would say I am ok when it comes to
woodwork but I am
certainly no cabinet maker. I am likely to build shelves again
but not on a
regular basis. Any advice or alternative options would be
appreciated.
Consider getting the metal strips and routing them in. No skill
is needed, other than the proper flat-bottomed router bit and a
straight edge to guide the router. The cut, as I recall, is about
3/16" deep by 5/8" wide per strip to get them flush, and then
shelf support clips snap in and can be adjusted as desired.
