Kenny Huber Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Hello everyone! I just recently retired from the Air Force and moved back to my wife’s home town, Perry GA. I work as an aircraft mechanic on Robins AFB now; but wood working is a hobby of mine. I enjoy all aspects of woodworking, but mainly build furniture that is needed in my home. I also like to turn small projects on my mini lathe and build wooden ship models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Huber Posted August 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 Thanks all for the warm welcome! At this moment my projects are on hold since we just moved into our new home. I have been working on a bookcase that is 72” tall, 50” wide and 12” deep ( my wife has a lot of books). I used poplar for it and plan to stain a dark mahogany color. It will have one fixed shelf and four floating shelves. I’ll post a picture of it once I get internet hooked up in the new house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just have to make a trip up north of the price per board foot is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdwerker Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 There are quite a few hardwood lumber suppliers around Atlanta if you can't find what you need around you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bankstick Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Welcome to the forum. Woodcraft magazine has an article of "tricking out" a bookcase with various kinds of trim on the ends, top and bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
