When I was a kid my dad would take me on his second job occasionally, carpenter, it's what origionally spurred my woodworking interest. We were 1 time working on the roofe of a persons shed out behind their home and dad was taking shingles off by using 1 claw hammer and hooking the claw under difficult nails and striking the head of that hammer with the second hammer. That was abou 45 years ago and I remember the bright red bursting of blood when the shrapnal from the hammer head fracture flew into his forearm so fast I couldn't see it travel, it was like a bullet. The doctor couldn't find it and he carried that tiny piece of artery peircing metal in his arm till the day he died. My brother still has that hammer even with the same handle on it that dad used all those many years ago but you can clearly see the chip where the fragment came from and the face of the hammer is peeling line the scales of a snake.. DON'T DO IT Mythebusters were wrong.

I'm a function before form then bring looks in AFTER a functional design is achieved. That's why I vote for this bookcase, looks good, works great!
