Re: You're the Judge

Love the contrast you built into the sides like that by resisting the classic wood panel treatment.

Re: bookcase for OED (Oxford English Dictionary)

Wow! That's a lot of work to hold 24 volumes :-)
Obviously the "book" aspect was just a good excuse to build a beautiful Plant stand or end table. Nothing wrong with that! Beautifully done.

Re: Empire Bookcase

A little too ornate for my taste but I still admire the craftmanship. Well done!

Re: Creative Bookcases: Official Rules

I agree with pfeiltool that a small fix would take care of the angle issue altogether.It seems to me, however that although the very bottom shelf is at a slight angle it should nonetheless hold books without having them slide off so I'm not sure it's really need and might actually detract from the aesthetics of the piece.

Road87man, however, is way off base. I would hate to see your home if everything in it has to be 100% practical. True it might take up more room than some other conventional bookcase but I would much rather look at this one than a conventional one. This is art!!! The contrasting wood, the curves, the angles... A thing of beauty!!!!!
