Knock-Down Bookcase

This attractive bookcase proves you don’t have to sacrifice style in favor of straightforward construction.

When designing a project, it’s often difficult to strike the right balance between manageable, time-conscious construction methods and a pleasing appearance. However, this stylish bookcase gets it right on both counts. There are a couple of keys to achieving this perfect compromise. First, a combination of pocket hole joinery and knock-down hardware make the basic assembly quick and painless, yet very sturdy. Add to this a few well-thought-out details and the end result looks pretty impressive.
