Should I put a permanent shelf in the middle of a bookcase?
Hello
I am making a few bookcases for the local school. They will be made out of 3/4 (18mm) birch ply with a 1/4" plywood back in a dado and 3/4 x 2" poplar frame on the front. Two of them will be 2 feet wide by 5 feet high and the third will be 32" wide by 6 feet high. My question is should I make the middle shelf in each permantely attached, dadoed to each side, so that the cases will not warp over time? If it matters I will use shelf pins for the shelves. Thanks Larry C |
