    The dovetail joinery used to secure the corners of hanging bookshelves is very strong, and the contrasting woods forming the joints creates visual interest.

    The contemporary mahogany maple bookcase made in this episode is both sturdy and functional. Main features include dovetail joints, shaped edges and inset maple shelves. The dovetail joinery gives the piece strength and highlights the contrasting colors of the two woods. A mounting plate on the back panel allows the shelf to be hung on a wall, keeping floor space clear.
