The photos of the Shelfie and the library room in its latest appearance are in my member gallery. I haven't figured out how to insert a photo in the post. The longer story on the build and installation is on this link:

It's a pleasure to contribute to this group and keep it active as reading and carpentry are two longstanding activities.

>1 Marcial87: Did you install the ladder rails yourself? Was it a kit or specialty order, or components from general hardware?

I've got an antique rolling ladder, and finally, the wall space. Who knows when I'll get around to putting in shelves, though. They might use the ladder to carry me out someday.

> 2wonderY: Rockler (a woodworking and hardware supplier) sells the shelf rails. They are heavy, but o/w easy to install. They also sell the ladder hook in case the rails are too thick for your present hook. Hope that helps.

Thanks! I do recall having one of their catalogs at one point. Good to know.
