They look very nice.

I have a friend who bought a bunch of ship kits (including the USS Constitution, which is huge). He hasn't put any of them together yet, but he's already decided he'll need display cabinets for them - so he's gone crazy buying all the wood, parts, glass, tools and tools and tools. He says his wife is *NOT* pleased...

To me, it's funny, though. I doubt the various ship kits were more than $1 thousand, but he's probably spend $3-4 thousand getting ready to display them!

By the time he's done and has become an experienced cabinet-maker, I bet he'll be able to start his own business. There's a big market around here for custom cabinets. It seems as though every time he tells his story, his audience is asking if he'll build something for them....

Nice job on your bookshelves, Nemo. They look great!
