 Wow, go to the ballet and come home to a tome on closet shelving 
construction. Steve really got wound up and/or can type really fast. 
That was an excellent version of what I would have done, but I couldn't 
have put it in words as well as Steve. That's what happens when you get 
a techie degree instead of a liberal arts degree. Well done Steve...
 One item to mention about shelves. They make some shelving that is 
pretty cheap and doesn't warp that is probably cheaper than the pine 
shelving boards. You might look at the home centers to see since it is 
covered with melamine and clean up easily.
 I hope we get a photo of the shelves some day or a blog of the 
progress. BTW, Clowns by the Carolina Ballet was pretty good. Tonight 
was opening night and they weren't perfect, but worth the trouble.
