This week I took an 8ft tall bookcase and turned it into a credenza/sideboard/office organizer for the Dream Office. Part of the challenge I've given myself in this Dream Office is to make as much as I can out of stuff I already have. The top is reclaimed Douglas Fir from a salvage yard, I use Patterned Plywood edge banding from a prior video, and the drawers are made from old shelves and scrap wood. I hope this video encourages others to try upcycling. It's a great way to experiment in the woodshop without spending a lot of money.
