Cubby Bookcases Modular Office Collection

You are wonderful!! This made my day, I have wanted this collection for a long time...can't wait till all our tools catch up with us in the move. Oh, and Alaska girls rock! I grew up in Southeast and went to school at UAF. Love your site.

Yay! I'm about to start creating a crafting/sewing studio...maybe I should make my own craft desk!

gosh dang it! I already have my craft room furniture! Maybe I need another craft room...

Oh I loooooove this collection. Been drooling over it in the catalog. I don't think I have anywhere to put it at the moment but someday...

Never before have I been so excited that my craft room isn't complete...

*starts making springtime building plans*

I'm new to your site and I LOVE IT! I'm hoping for the courage to try this someday.

YAY!!
I'm SO excited that you're doing this :) This is the collection that I want for my craft room/office. I'm THRILLED!

Miss Ana!!
My hubby is going to make these in our toy room and was going to make one up as he goes, now thanks to you he has the plans!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

I was just going to suggest this bookcase! I have been wanting to make this desk for a few years now. You rock!

Hmm, I'm thinking these might be great anchors for a kitchen island. How would you go about supporting a piece of granite or butcher block? Thanks for this great design!

Hey I had a good idea that would free up some of your emails. You can start a flickr account with Knock off Wood. That way people who make your plans can put pictures in there. If you want to do a bragging board every so often you can pull images from there.
It would save your email account :)
Thanks for all you do!

OMG! Can you please please please please make plans for the work station too?!

Love it as always :)

OMG - Ana - THANK YOU!!! You're going to make me pee my pants from all the excitement. Okay, not really, but close! Be still my heart!!

This is my FAVORITE collection! I have been drooling over it for a long time and I can't wait to get started...I'm off to home depot right now! THANK YOU!!!

You ROCK!! We just found your blog a few weeks ago and I pestered my husband to help me build the entryway shelf and bench, which we're almost done with. I told him I wanted the Bedford table/storage system for my craft room and that I wished you had plans for it...and here they are!!

Im so excited about this, I have been dying to have this craft desk forever! Thanks for doing this one!

I fell in "LOVE" with this the second I saw it...so headed to Lowes and bought all the supplies and will be starting on it tomorrow..cannot wait for me and my 8yr old to share the great space doing craft and such..One modified item we will be doing..on one side we will add a dowel rod to attach a big roll of paper..this should make her drawing and coloring alot easier and know right where the paper is.."Cant Wait!" Will post as soon as I am done..

I love this but would like the cubbies to be about 13x13 when finished. I scrapbbok and would love to store my 12x12 paper in the cubbies. LOVE IT!

I am working on building this right now, I actually am building 2 for the desk. In total 2 bookcases have cost $90 in lumber, so they're roughly $45 apiece. I used good quality wood so I'm sure you could get some a bit cheaper than I. :)

good woodworking plans
This is very useful for me, I will recommend my friends to read this information
good article ... I always read artike-article on this website is very good

I'm building two of these bookcases now to go with the craft table. The problem that I'm having with the plans is that you are supposed to drill the holes for the shelf pins after you assemble the rest of the bookcase, but in doing it that way, it is extremely difficult to drill the holes. I can't get my cordless drill into the shelfspace to property drill the holes perpendicular to the board face. I've been drilling at an awkward angle to get the shelf pins in. Next time, I would drill the holes in those boards first before putting the top and the bottom on the bookcase.

This is very nice maybe a future project

Would it be possible to scale this down (I was thinking 4 cubbies as opposed to 9) to create a child's art table? How would one go about doing so? I was thinking the cubbies would be 30"x30" over all. And tabletop might be 32"x44"ish? How hard might it be to have 4-6 circular holes on the table top for paint cups? And some sort of paper roller?
Forgive my art skills, but my idea thus far: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brightleafphoto/5368916903/

I am so going to have my husband make this for my craft room in our new house-can't wait!!!!!!!!

I was just talking to hubby about making something like this - on a larger scale to hold multiple machines/girls.

So Love your table, I was wondering what color is the paint/stain that you used on the top?

Hi, I am one of those people that need every step laid out so, how do you attach the top of the table to the cubbies?

I see the "check for square" on alot of plans, but how do you accurately check for square? Also, if you aren't square, what do you do then? Undo it and try again?

Hi Ana, I'm new to your blog today and so excited about your plans that I can barely type. This cubby/desk unit is about $400 ON SALE to purchase. Have wanted it for so long, but just can't do it in this economy and couldn't figure out how to make it (I'm a newbie at woodworking and am loving it).
Thank you thank you thank you for all you are doing!
I too am interested in making the cubbies able to hold 12x12 products.

I am confused. I am not seeing where to use the Kregg Jig. When do we use it? and where ? and how to we fasten the 2 inch screw? I am sorry,I am a newbie to these projects.
