My next project: Cedar CD/movie shelf
My car now smells like cedar inside.
This is because I have not yet unloaded it from shopping for my next project: a music/movie shelf unit. At some point in the past (probably raiding the garage to populate my first apartment) I acquired an extremely useful shelf unit that's perfect for CDs, movies, and small paperbacks, because the shelves are only about 6 inches deep and maybe 8-10 inches high; the whole thing is about 4 feet high. I decide I want more of these, so I'm going to try to build one myself.
So last night at Home Depot I bought a bunch of 6-inch wide cedar pickets, mostly 4 feet long but a couple of 6-footers too (let's see if we can make a tall one), plus some backing board (not sure about this one) and hardware. The total was about $40, including some things that'll last beyond this project.
I probably won't have time to work on this until October. But if this goes well I hope to make more, since I doubt that it'll be enough.
