Walk-in closet Part 2

I finished one side of the walk in closet today!  There is one shelf for each side down in the basement, but I don’t think we will need them.  I got a really good deal on the birch cabinet grade plywood at Home Depot.  I used birch veneer banding and a light walnut oil stain from Varathane.  After that was the water based urethane from Minwax in a gloss finish.

I used no glue instead opting for pocket hole joinery.  Basically, you drill a hole with a special jig set to a certain depth in the angled template(the blue thing) that is clamped down down to the wood.  You can then screw two pieces of wood together and hide the screws.  You are making a pocket for the screw to slip into.  Here I am drilling some holes.
