    If you put the edging on the front side of the plywood you have the choice of putting it up or down. If you want a lip to keep stuff from falling off you put it up. If not, you put it down.

    What's wrong with the shelving looking a bit beefier? I guess it's just a personal preference.

    you can glue a strip of wood an inch or two back from the front edge and even preload it a bit with a crown by gluing it upside down and support it at each ends and put a bit of weight on it. On some stuff maybe long table surfaces only supported by the ends ive done preloads with a larger strip and lamelloed so it was like the back of a transport truck when you see them unloaded and they are up in the middle.

    ....if you're still there, that is.
