In this episode, I build an arched-top, custom built-in bookshelf for my Colorado Springs Client. The frame and shelves are made from walnut, while the back walls and sides are painted with reflective paint that reflects the LEDs integrated into the bookshelf’s frame.
Summary
Arch Top Bookshelf Construction Process
Brian discussed his project of building an arch-top, built-in bookshelf with LED lighting. He detailed the process of measuring and tracing the arch shape, creating a template, and cutting it out of plywood. He emphasized the importance of achieving a smooth shape and paying attention to grain direction. Brian also explained the method of joining the pieces together to create the arched top using a Festool domino and epoxy, as well as the use of soft pine glue blocks to clamp complex shapes together while the epoxy dries. He then moved on to making the sides and building the shelves, including installing LED lighting and attaching cleats to the wall for support. The client had their electrician and painter work on the project while Brian built the components.
