I really enjoyed this project. I would suggest painting as much as possible before assembly. I used pocket screws to hide which are hidden on the back side and a nail gun to attach the front 1x2s. I made a total of 8 ledges.
One thing I did different from the project plan is that I connected the bottom board on top of the back board to give me a little more space on the bottom for layering my books.
