How To Build Built In Bookcases
How To Build Built In Bookcases. Build some built in bookcases from scratch to fit your needs. Traditionally, built-in bookcases are made with solid wood boards, carefully routed to make tight grooves that accept each shelf.

I started with stock cabinets from Home Depot. A built-in bookcase provides a triple-duty solution to my storage needs—it looks good, it adds to the salability of the home and, by removing the studs and using the depth of a partition wall, it occupies limited space within the room. Even if the built-in bookshelves look complicated or challenging, the design is actually pretty simple and straightforward and anyone with some patience can pull this build off.
