Hi,
I started last week to make a small bookcase for our daughters room to fit at the end of her new bed (will upload pics of bed build when i get a chance). Bookcase is 18mm mdf and will be painted eggshell white to match the finish used for the bed. It will also have a pine stained top made to finish it off.
Decided since i had enough mdf i would make a wee chair for her aswell.
Anyway forgot to take pics during build so heres what we have so far.
Bookcase and chair top both primed.
Nothing fancy just functional. Probably wont get chance to do anything further on these until next week now.
To secure the top on i planned to put a dowel in each corner and glue the top down, would that be an ok way to secure the top? The top will be made up of 20mm thick redwood strips joined with biscuits and will over hang about 15mm all round.
Cheers
