All of us will have wood working projects with special challenges. This video addresses a challenge I faced in a recent office bookcase build.
See how I solved my problem with a unique corbel application that added the needed support for tall bookcases.

Wow Wes! I see how truly challenging this one was, but your expertise brought it to perfect solution. Your expertise, your wisdom, and your teaching enrich us all. As you know , you have been a great inspiration to me since I started back into woodworking. Thank you sir… And have a great weekend.

Absolutely beautiful work! I came to your video to see how a bookcase should be made to reflect true craftsmanship and artistry. While I may not be able to attain your level of workmanship for my first attempt at building a bookcase, you have given me a goal to aspire to. Thank you for a very well-explained video. Your solution is breathtaking.

Thank you Wes for this information. The simple step by step for putting together a really nicely finished shelf unit is just what I needed to start my own living room wall shelving project. Regards Tony

Thanks for taking the time to share your wisdom with us by making these videos! I love seeing a job done properly and these little detail pieces are so easily overlooked when designing. Do you have a website/page where you list the different tools that you use? Would love to know what the professionals are using!

That little narrow section that looks like it's about 4" would have made a terrific secret compartment, if the homeowner had decided to do that.

Hi Wes... Thank you for your response! Obviously, the height of your book case is limited by your ceiling height... Based on your case height, how do you determine an aesthetically pleasing case width??? I've been told that proportions are everything in furniture building!

Beautiful!! What putty/nail hole filler are you using here?

@chrisw7402 2 жыл бұрын

Can I ask, are you using Baltic Burch plywood for the body and Burch for the face frames. I really want to build something like this. Your work is beautiful.

Hi Chris...the veneer panels and solid wood faces are all cherry wood. Good luck with your project, it will be great. Thanks Wes

I can't find a single video on KZfaq that shows the build and install for solid wood raised wall paneling. Any chance you've got a custom order ready to go!? 😂

Hi Nick...solid wood raised wall paneling is not a request that I have had but I will keep my eyes open for opportunities in the future and tag you.

The final profile of the side looks different than what was shown in the video. What did you do to give the 'stepped down' look as it transitions from the frame to the panel? Rout an ogee profile?

@WoodworkingWithWes 3 жыл бұрын

Shawn...yes there was a small ogee molding added to the inside of the frame against the panel. This was a customer requested add-on after our initial build. Thanks for visiting...hope this helps.

The room was a client's office space and the bookcases were built in an effort to maximize their use. Thanks very much.

@brianrezarch7477 3 жыл бұрын

sorry i think that design looks tacky, you may want to try screwing your cabinets together and you may not have to worry about extra support

@WoodworkingWithWes 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your input. The bookcases are screwed together and screwed to the wall and would in most cases be just fine. After reviewing the client's storage desires the supports were added to satisfy his concerns and my liability.
