No I have not, I don't even know what one should look like. Just to educate an idiot, do you have any examples that you could show? Dave

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

That is really high class style of book shelf, if I had any talent I might try one myself. Dave

I haven't built a complete barrister book case, but I have designed components of it into a entertainment center I built for a client in Cary. I incorporated the door movement into a faux drawer which hid their gameboys, and other stuff like that. In this photo, the faux drawer front just above the two bottom drawers lifts up and slides back just like a barrister door does. Don't mind the dust spots. LOL

That one looks good DaveO. I dont know if I have the talent to do it either, but looking through your gallery I am positive you could do it. Think half the battle would be just getting started on it. I know I would need a LOT of pictures.

mshel,

I like the idea of the door hiding the game boys great work. It really looks good.

Could you repost?
