    • Q: How do I make a storage cube?

    I need to know how the dividers and shelves are attached to one another. I was going to use dowels, but is there another way. I will be using 3/4" pine. Thanks

    There are lots of ways to attach shelves - really depends on what strenght you need and what you want it to look like. 

    you could cut dados into the upright pieces and glue the horizonal peices in.

    you could use screws throught the sides - drill and contersink then cover with a dowel.

    you could use biscit joinery.

    you could use pocket screws.

    I'd need to know more about your design (size, number of shevles, etc) to be more helpful.

    make individual  cubes to whatever size you need and some half width to break up the pattern and screw them to each other.  This doubles the strength of trying to divide shelves.  You can use them as a bookcase against a wall or as a room divider

    I'd say that - short of cutting dados in the sides of the cube and fitting the shelves into those - the easiest way might be to countersink some screws from the cube side into the shelves, then cover those screw heads over with plugs. Here's the one caveat however: store-bought plugs and dowels aren't always the exact width they say they are. Sitting on a shelf for weeks or months can lead to expansion or contraction that effectively changes the diameter of the plugs enough to make it a bear to fit it into a hole of the seemingly appropriate size.

     

    Best bet is to cut your own plugs using a plug cutter at your drill press, then setting the plug free at a bandsaw, or with a jigsaw (in a pinch) as long as you've got your workpiece firmly clamped down.

    Hmmm, I smell a blog post in my very near future:)

    Best,
