Great bookcase. I used a 3" screw through the top center into the wall to add lateral stability. Now it is rock solid. The majority of time was spent sanding and finishing.

Estimated Cost
$100
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
The all-in-one stain with poly doesn't coat evenly on pine. I ended up stopping half way through, sanding it off, then used a Minwax stain, then Satin poly.
