Standard sizes for bookshelves?

With harder woods or thicker boards you can go longer but that can get expensive fast. Unless you've decided that you've bought your last book and will never sell any that you already have, make them ajustable. -- Mark Heaely marknews(at)healeyonline(dot)com |

All bookshelves should be dimensioned so as to be able to double shelf Hardy
Boys books. No other type of book should be collected anyway! -- Bob Finnan The Hardy Boys Unofficial Home Page http://www.Hardy-Boys.net New & Out Of Print Books, Books-On-Tape, Videos, DVDs, CD-ROMs For Sale http://users.arczip.com/fwdixon/hbsale.htm To reply: replace spamless with fwdixon .................................................. ....................

I agree! But the shelves are much more colourful with yellow (Nancy
Drew) and orange (Tom Swift) on them as well! Luc fwdixon wrote: All bookshelves should be dimensioned so as to be able to double shelf Hardy Boys books.
