Today, I glued up the upper carcase of the bookcase I’m working on for an upcoming issue (Bob says it could double as a condo). I was so very pleased with myself. The two fixed shelves fit snug into the grooves, the case was almost dead-on square with no futzing, and the face frame overhangs on both sides by 1/16″ or so for the entire 5′ length, which will make for easy cleanup (in theory).
And then I grabbed the nail gun to toenail the fixed shelves in place. Naturally, this wee mishap occurred right where it will show the most. Now where did I stash those nippers…
