Step By Step Instructions

Step15

Cutting the Wood

Cutting the wood for the diy book shelf.

Using your pencil and measuring stick, mark the dimensions on the wood for the three pieces: one large shelf for the bottom, a smaller board for the top, and a support piece for the books.

Use the US20V-01 20V Max to cut the wood along the marked lines. Ensure the cuts are straight and clean.

Step25

Sand the Edges

Sanding the edges of the wooden diy book shelf.

Attach your Dremel 407 Sanding Band to the Dremel Rotary Tool and smooth out any rough edges or surfaces.

Step35

Assembling the Shelf

Drilling holes into the wooden diy book shelf.

Attach your Dremel Dirll Bit to the Dremel Rotary Tool , and drill holes into the wood where the dowels will be inserted. Ensure the holes align perfectly between the pieces. Then apply wood glue into the drilled holes and insert the dowels. Press the pieces together firmly. Finally, use the clamps to hold the pieces in place until the glue dries completely. This ensures a strong and secure bond.
