Making some bookeneds by hand.
So far I used hand saws to rough cut and rip the board. Then a shooting board to create flat and perpendicular edges.
A saw and chisel to begin the curved edges. A carving knife to get me close and a spoke shave to give it a smoother curve.
Next will be dovetails.

Not only do I like to see that a lot but it also reminds me I really need a new pair of those too... Or maybe I just need to stop buying more (used) books? Scratching my head, not even trying to hide my sorry smile while I glance at the 3 books I just found at the thrift store that I wanted to read for so long...
