I can just picture you saying that now, with your poms poms and cheer leading group ... :D

Thank you cv3 for the compliment :)

JP thanks for the heads up on the program. I need to replace this HD because it is filled to the max, but I may be able to squeeze it in there somewhere ;)

Well I managed to squirrel away enough time in the shop today to get the last bookcase carcase (minus back panel) put together and in clamps drying. :)
I probably would have had the back panel cut and in place as well , but had to take some time off to call 9-1-1 on some young punk who thought it was a good idea to stop in front of my shop and start man handling his pregnant girlfriend in the middle of our street. :rolleyes:
That was his first mistake, his second was not getting into his car and leaving when he was given the opportunity, and his third was threatening me and my family and property if I called the police. After that I was wound a bit tight and had to take some time off to cool off. :mad:
So hopefully with any luck, the back will be on later tonight or tomorrow morning. Then I can get back to making more of the adjustable shelves for them until I run of of materials.

Next project, 2 window seats I'll be trading for a Radial Arm Saw :D

I got the last of the bookcases done tonight, I have one more adjustable shelf to cut and trim out tomorrow for the first bookcase and then it's just a matter of putting on the finish and getting them delivered. :D

Next project, two window seats. ........ ;)

Just thought while I have a few minutes to myself I'd update the photos of the bookcases and pantry unit now that they are in the bro-inlaw's home.The first 2 are of the pantry unit, the last 2 are the 2 bookcases in the nephew's bedroom. My apologies for the messy room, he's too busy with Wii to pick up his clothes I guess :rolleyes:

pic sizing

I use Windows Office Picture Manager to resize my photos for posting here. I simply open the picture in it, click on edit and resize, which has an option to make it 800x600 and save the edited pic in a file I created just for Shopsmith downloads. I keep the originals in a seperate file to preserve the quality as originally taken. Works for me and pretty easily. Since i don't put pics on the web to share it seems like too much effort to go to one of the picture sites just to change sizes.
