2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves [1] Submitted by Ana White [2] on Fri, 2010-03-05 11:31 [1] This stack of magazines from our trip to the bookstore have been waiting to be blogged for a couple of weeks, and just yesterday it occurred to me that the April editions are probably now available. So not to overwhelm you with magazines, but I wanted to show you the reason I bought the Better Homes and Gardens DIY magazine for March 2010 Page 1 of 13 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) [3] image from DIY Magazine, Better Homes and Gardens, Spring 2010 Page 2 of 13 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) I loved this room, and I especially love the shelving. Of course this is an IKEA Expedit unit, and at $70, a very reasonable price. I am going to give you plans for a similar unit (with trim over the shelves and dividers for extra strength) today, and also show you how to add the molding on the bottom of the shelving unit. [4] image from DIY Magazine, from Better Homes and Gardens Spring 2010 Notice that is THREE shelving units, put together with a solid countertop. I will show you how to adjust the length of the legs in this plan to get this exact look. Love those trees? Go to here for the pattern [5], from Jeni Wright of Team DIY.

I just want to give you an idea of how to finish out the tops and bottoms to make the shelving units look like built-ins. Of course, if you like the wheeled version better, [7] That's the plan we are doing today! Summary: This console height cubby unit can be used as wall storage or as one of our readers did (inspired by DIY Magazine) an entire wall of storage! Special thanks to our readers for sharing their photos.

Take a square after each step. Use glue and keep outside edges flush as necessary. Use proper safety equipment and precautions. [30] Build the Box. Begin by fastening through the sides with 2″ nails and glue to the shelves. Use the measurements above to guide you. Then fasten the top in place. Step 1 Page 8 of 13 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) [31] Dividers. First fasten all the bottom dividers in place, fastening through the shelves into the ends of the dividers. Mark out the proper spacing. Then fasten through the top into the top dividers. To fasten the bottom edge of the top divider, nail at an angle through the bottom corner of the divider into the shelf. Use 2″ nails and glue. Step 2 Page 9 of 13 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) [32] Trim. Using 2″ nails and glue, fasten the trim in place, measuring to fit. You may wish to mark the top and bottom trim before fastening the vertical trim in place. The shelf trim is flush on the top with the shelves. Step 3 Page 10 of 13 2x4 Console Cubby Shelves Published on Ana White (http://www.ana-white.com) [33] Caster Supports. Using 1 1/4″ nails and glue, fasten the caster supports to the bottom of the piece. Then fasten your casters to these pieces. Step 5 Finishing. Fill any nail holes with wood filler and sand and finish as desired.
