Some have asked about the final look of the bookcases. This is a mostly-front view, books installed. We left spaces at the top left and right for Dave's nutcrackers. Lots of work, nearly gave it up along the way (thanks, Mom, for cheering me on the Saga of the Stereo Cords), but it's done. I do have odds and ends to deal with, as always. In every and any endeavor.

Side view, showing how the front bumps out a little, the ends bump out a lot. I love these. Thanks to Roger, our architect!
