100' Faux Steel Pipe Bookcase
After years of wanting to do a
walled bookcase but wanting to go with the eventual Steam Punk theme of my
basement I finally figured out a cost-effective way to accomplish it. The idea
was to do a bookcase made entirely out of steel pipes. This bookcase required
over 100 feet of piping so that would require about $1,500 in pipes alone.
I finally decided to use PVC
connectors, floor flanges, and wooden dowels. This made the project cost about
$300 with the primary cost being the flanges as they only come in steel.
I used ¾” PVC with 1 1/8” dowel rods.
