I'm finishing up the last elements of the sideboard that I need to actually "build," which are the saw-tooth shelving supports. I will make 3 separate adjustable shelves, two small ones on the sides and a larger one in the middle.

This system is quite elegant and practical, but for hand tool woodworkers, it's a lot of a work. In reality, I don't think it's a great solution, in that sense, unless of course you do use a table saw or if you simply do not want to use normal metal shelf pins. That was the case with me: I am all hand tools on this build and don't even own a table saw, and I didn't want to have the metal pins. So, this was my solution.

I'm happy with the result, and I hope this gives you some ideas.

Thanks, and enjoy!

If you'd like to stay up to date on the real-time progress for the sideboard, check my instagram account, below. There, you'll see that I'm actually moving along at quite the pace, considering I'm not using any electricity except for lighting and heat (ha!) and since I've got a family and a full-time job!
Thanks so much for watching!

I hope you've enjoyed the progress so far!
