a simple, knockdown, turn-of-the-century classic 

provides lots of storage for your favorite books. 

M

y mom has a bookcase in every room of my parent’

s

house. Most of them are stuffed two-rows deep with pa-

perbacks, hardbacks, picture books and travel books and 

still, whenever I visit, I find even more novels and novellas 

piled on top of end tables, underneath coffee tables, by 

the sides of chairs and on the backs of toilets. but I’m like 

her — I love collecting books.

tired of moving my own piles of books every time I 

needed a place to set a drink down, I decided to build a 

bookcase of my own. this project serves as a nice chal-

lenge for the beginning woodworker and as a great week-

end project for those more skilled. Its arts & crafts style 

is emphasized by mortise-and-tenon joinery, wedges and 

stickley-style (sans ammonia) finish. While the ends re-

main forever assembled, a few good whacks to the wedges 

and the whole project comes apart, stacks together and 

can be transported easily in the trunk of a car.            

GettinG Started

In keeping with the arts & crafts tradition, I bought rough 

quartersawn white oak for this project, which I jointed and 

planed. Don’t have a jointer or planer? no problem. Head 

out to your local home center and purchase some dimension-

al lumber, in a species to suit your taste. the shelves can be 

cut from 1×8s, as can the rails and stiles, with some waste. 

When purchasing your lumber, be picky. choose knot-

free heartwood (you don’t want pieces with a lot of sap) 

that has lots of figure. Determine which pieces are the 

most attractive and mark those for the most visible parts of 

the project. now cut all your pieces to size according to 

the cutting list.

teSt MortiSe 

the first step to building this bookcase is tackling the 

joinery and assembling the sides. It’

s

 important that the 

project’

s

 tenons fit snugly into the mortises, which means 

first making a test mortise. this will allow you to check 

the size of your tenons throughout the tenon-cutting pro-

cess, ensuring accuracy. there are twenty-four mortises in 

this project. Do yourself a favor and, if you don’t already 

have one, buy a hollow chisel mortising machine (about 

$250). a mortising attachment for your drill press or a

" 

forstner bit are also acceptable options. 

to make your test mortise, first select a piece of scrap 

from this project. some sappy waste will do just fine. as 

a rule of thumb, mortises should be half the thickness of 

your tenon’

s

 stock. because this project’

 tenon stock is

thick, the mortises need to be

 also a good 

idea to make your mortises about 

1

" deeper than the 

tenons are long. this will keep the tenons from bottom-

ing out in the mortises. the depth isn’t as important as the 

width in a test mortise, so simply make your test mortise 

as deep as the longest tenon is long. because the rails have
