The bookshelf was a request for a baby shower gift. My shelf was gifted with a wizard book set for the baby’s nursery. I made an equilateral triangle and made sure that the book set could fit nicely on the shelf with enough clearance at the top corners. This project involved some fun geometry and marked my first use of my new table saw.
See the walkthrough below for more details on the process.
Triangle Bookshelf 
Gathering materials: 6 feet of 1″ pine boards and a 20″ gold hoop. 
Cut the boards to 24″ with 60 degree angles on the edges of the boards. 
Used a strap clamp and wood glue to bring this triangle together. I solidified the structure by inserting one screw in the middle of each seam. 
Sanding took forever, but it felt great in the end. The edges needed to be softened and the surfaces smoothed for books. 
The color palette was grey, white, and gold accents, to match the nursery. 
I bought white brackets for shelf installation. 
Had to use epoxy and a creative clamping scheme to mount the gold hoop onto the back of the shelf. 
Painted a dowel white and epoxied it to the inside, near the back of the shelf, to leave room for the books. 
While it dried, I used the book set to do a fit test. It looked beautiful together!
