Solid Oak Display Shelf
This shelf is made of 3/4" thick Red Oak and measures 36-1/2" high, 30" wide and 7-1/2" deep overall.
The three adjustable shelves are 6" deep and 27" wide. Five Oak Shaker Pegs provide a place for hanging
keys, coats or in the case of my friend, dog leashes.

The wood for this shelf began as 4/4 (1" thick) rough lumber. I ran it through my planer to get it down
to the 3/4" thickness. The rounded cutouts on the Corners compliment the 1/2" cove details routed on the
Top and Lower boards. A 1/4" Oak laminated MDF board finished off the back side of the shelf.

solid board.

The pockets on the shelves ensure they stay in place.
