Leaning Shelf

This is the finest thing I’ve ever built. The idea was inspired by a shelf of similar design that my great grandfather handmade and handed down to my grandfather. I grew up seeing it in his office, and I thought I’d make one of my own. It currently holds all the...

Heavy Shelving (V3)
