Builtin furniture plans

Posted by Mathew DePasquale at December 23. 2005


Anyone know of any good web resources or books that have plans (even general plans) for builtin seating, ala FLW?

since built-ins are usually unique, I am not sure you will find too many off the shelf resources.

I would check out back issues of Fine Woodworking, and Fine Homebuilding. They have pretty good articles on building such things, then take the ideas and techniques and apply to your situation.

best,

Try these two vintage books...

How to Build Modern Furniture
by Mario Dal Fabbro

or

How to Make Built-in Furniture
by Mario Dal Fabbro


You can usually find them for sale on Ebay without much effort.
I think I bought my copy on Ebay for about $10-

Good luck.
