      Very nicely done, shoottx. I assume the middle partian slides (?) from the looks of how it drops through the center slot between the end boards.... How if it does?

        Wow, that is nice! Maple and walnut just go together so well.

          Yup!

          I started to write an explanation, but after reading the description I took pictures so you would have an intelligent answer

          Here is a picture,



          The maple piece on the bottom is a piece of reclaimed bowling alley!

            Nice book stand. Are the pins functional or decorative?

                    Fully functional the only hardware in the whole shelf is the screw holding the bottom piece in place. I was going to pin and glue it but I got lazy!
