Shaker Style Book Shelf Top

Here’s my first furniture build, a shaker style Book Case, from the book ‘Working Wood 1 & 2" by master craftsman Paul Sellers, I finished this with de-waxed shellac then 3 layers of water based gloss varnish, the wood used is Scandinavian Redwood Pine, I plan on making more of them to build my skills further. This was all made with hand tools only and has housed dado joints for the shelves, tops and bottom and 2 mortice and tenon joints to help stop it from racking, it is designed to be simple elegant and minimal.
