I'm being asked to build some bookcases which will feature 11 3/4" deep x 43" to 52" wide adjustable shelves.
Yeah - pretty wide. I'm planning on using 1" ply and/or 2 thicknesses of glued 3/4" ply with solid wood front edges.
NO - there will not be a vertical support in the middle though I will add support pins or something on the back wall (3/4" ply).
MY QUESTION - Any ideas what to use for shelf pins?
Is there such a thing add a heavy duty shelf pin?
I'm thinking that I will need to use a style that features a sleeve. Some of these seem too expensive but if they do the job… http://woodworker.com/69mm-brass-she...su-876-270.asp
BUT wondering if anyone would recommend the concealed wire system? - http://woodworker.com/fullpres.asp?PARTNUM=826-021
Any real world experience to share?
Thanks much.
