Shelf Brackets — Extensions

Image
The trickiest part of the build so far has been the (optional) shelf bracket extensions. I'm not sure if they're worth all the extra effort, but I didn't want my benchwork limited to standard bracket widths or customized to my wall stud locations in case I ever have to move. They're made from strips of 3/4" plywood glued into C-channels and require very tight tolerances to fit snugly over the brackets. Here's what the brackets / benchwork extensions look like in place: Extensions not fully seated to try different layout heights. Now I can build standardized benchwork modules, easy-peasy.
