Awesome Dovetailed Bookcase With (mostly) Hand Tools!

I show how to make a bookcase using traditional hand cut joinery out of cherry using mostly basic woodworking tools. This build features hand cut dovetails, twin mortise and tenon, frame and panel case back, and a simple moulding and base trim that can be made with just a hand plane.
