Tri Book Display The study of using joints without adhesives to build a bookshelf. Choose three books of my preference and design a bookshelf for the sole purpose of highlighting the aesthetics of the books.

After being an auto-mechanic for over three years, I felt my car manual text books were important references for information such as torque specifications and how to step by step instructions on various types of motor vehicles; from American made to European cars and to Japanese Imports. I captured the geometric shapes of cars such as the wheel for ground base, the glass as the visual, and the body panels as support. I had to figure out how to avoid using any adhesive, mainly using various types of jointing methods. I figured the materiality of wood would work best because its stable, solid and easy to trim with the power tools.
