  In this video workshop I?m going to show you how to build a basic bookcase and finish it with interesting, attractive details. You make the case from hardwood-veneer plywood, assembling it with screws and simple dado-and-rabbet joints. At the base, you have a choice: You can make a flat-bracket base that you cut on the tablesaw and bandsaw, or if you want the same kind of base used on period furniture, you can make an ogee bracket foot. To make this base, you cut a cove in thick stock on the tablesaw; I?ll show you how to do that. Then you shape the rest of the curved foot with planes and scrapers. Finally, you cut a decorative scroll pattern on the bandsaw. I?ll show you how that?s done; the downloadable plan includes full-size patterns for both feet. This video workshop refines bookcase designs from an article I wrote for Fine Woodworking #133; the photos above are from that article. winning woodworker and teacher Philip C. Lowe in this video workshop, building a bookcase with adjustable shelves. You'll get two options for the base. The basic case has a flat-bracket base, with simple curves cut on the bandsaw. Or, you can substitute an ogee bracket foot. Highlights include: More than 1 hour of video instruction. Useful techniques that simplify how you edge the plywood, handle large sheets of plywood, and shape moldings. Download the woodworking plan and talk to the author in the Ask the Experts forum.

Dovetail joints are used to make boxes, cabinets, and drawers, but, as the DVD shows, they can be difficult to produce.
