Hook

The whole bookcase is in the sheet — every part nested into a single 4×8 of ¾ in plywood, verified by the layout engine, not asserted in the marketing. Two 70 in sides, four shelves, top, bottom and a plinth: one sheet, one day, zero leftover lumber run. The open back keeps the cost in the sheet and lets your wall colour show through.

Specs

  • Finished size: 30 × 11¼ × 70 in (W × D × H)
  • Plan length: 14 pages (US Letter), imperial + metric throughout
  • Five openings, graduated — tallest at the bottom (shelf lines at 19½ / 33½ / 47½ / 59½ in, all measured from the floor so errors never stack)
  • Construction: all ¾ in plywood, open back, 4 in plinth shadow gap at the base
  • Sheet goods: exactly 1 × ¾ in plywood sheet — that's the design constraint, and the printed sheet layout proves it
  • Safety: an anti-tip strap is in the hardware list, and its fitting step is not optional
  • Estimated material cost (computed by the plan engine): $88
  • Difficulty: Beginner · Build time: 1 day
  • What's included

  • 14-page plan (Letter, print or tablet) — imperial & metric throughout
  • Front, side & top elevations + a full exploded view, all dimensioned in inches and millimetres
  • The one-sheet layout, drawn to scale: the whole bookcase on one 4x8
  • Shelf lines measured from the floor — no error stacking, ever
  • DXF + SVG cutting files, grouped by real material thickness
  • Exact hardware list — anti-tip strap included in the plan, not an afterthought
  • Tools

  • Circular saw with a straightedge guide (or table saw / track saw)
  • Drill/driver and a pocket-hole jig
  • Clamps (2 × 36 in), combination square, tape, level
  • Orbital sander — no CNC required. CNC files are included if you have one.
  • FAQ

    Is this a physical product? No — it's an instant digital download: the plan PDF plus DXF and SVG cutting files.

    Does it really come from one sheet? Yes. The sheet layout page shows every part nested on a single 4×8 sheet — the engine that produced the layout also validated the design, so the claim is checkable on the page.

    Why no back panel? Weight, cost and looks: the open back keeps everything in the one sheet and lets the wall show through. The anti-tip strap in the hardware list handles stability — fit it.

    Do I need a CNC? No. One sheet, straight cuts. CNC files included free anyway.

    What if the files don't open or arrive damaged? Files faulty or corrupted? Free replacement within 7 days.
