Gerald. His are elegant, mine are pretty funky..

I threw them together in an hour or so, the morning of a show..
No biscuits, overlapping instead of flush, etc..

The plan was to try them, and if they worked out I'd build "nicer" ones..
As usual, they worked great and I never got around to building another
set..

Looks good and is obviously very functional.

One thing I would mention is that old marketing nugget about not making the
display/packaging/etc fancier than the product itself. You have some plain,
simple shelves. This shows off the turinings nicely. You did it right.

Good job Mac.


Thanks..
I was going to sand and stain them, but had the same thought as you did..
Also, any color on the shelves except maybe white would tend lose the color
contrast between the work and the shelf..
