Not sure if I ever posted these bookshelves I did a while ago. Finally got round to taking (half) decent pictures. Threaded rod all the way through and tapped thread in the caps on either end.

So the middle sections are hollow tube and the end caps are solid bar? Are the middle sections of tube seated in a counter bore on the wood or just floating? Very nice work.

Just floating, I was able to saw the shelves with my father's circle saw and told the uni workshop people the end caps were for my graduation project. The rest of it was done in the comfort of my living room with a hand saw and a cordless drill, so I had to ~~bodge~~ design around those limitations.
