Holy Crap!
wiggy:
I did not. It's not neccesarry, but it definitely makes it look a bit cleaner if you do.

Okie dokie. So what was the average length of each shelf? And I'm guessing you had to either remove the studs or had custom ones in mind when you built the wall.

I did not remove studs. There was actually a built-in unit in place when I moved in to the house. I tore it out to make my own.
Removing studs isn't really a viable option anyway. Just build out from the wall.

My first ever Wiki modification/entry! That was surprisingly easy. It's kind eerie how easy it is actually.
Anyway, added the gloss red DSi (and labelled the other red as "matte"), and the Saga 2 L.E. The color lists for almost all of the portable entries are incomplete. I think I'll eventually update them all. Good sitting on the pooper activity :P

I drew up a model in Solidworks, which was WAY more than what was required to do the job. I just wanted to be able to render it and place it in a photo of my basement as a preview :P
Honestly I used 1x6" for the entire structure save for a 1/4" plywood back. I used shelf railing and clips like these in order to have a modular system. The entire thing was put together with wood screws using butt joints. I finished the front with some 1x2" and 1x8" ( it needed a clean finish around the edges since it was built in to the wall). I think the whole thing took me about 2 days to build, and then another to install, cleanup, etc.

Haha this sounds like me. I tend to draw up everything in Solidworks. I guess once you become accustomed to having CAD models, it's hard to go back.
