Art Deco Bookshelf

Art Deco Bookshelf
I made this bookshelf in an Art Deco style to hide my speakers behind the curved sheet metal. I've used a sepele veneer for the shelves and the sides. The challenge was creating the curved corners on the shelves using the small amount of mahogany I had for the edges. I've described making the large radii corners here and on the base I used a smaller diameter corner described here.














I've hidden the smaller speakers in the top right and left corners. In the base of the bookshelf I've hidden the large speaker. In order to prevent the whole assembly from vibrating from the music, I actually cut a hole in the base to allow the speaker to sit on the floor. It sounds good an now I can move my woodworking books out of the garage.
