Requirements

Body. 1 Condensed-milk Box (about 7 1/4 in. deep, 13 in. wide, 19 3/4 in. long).

Hardware. 2 picture hooks and picture wire.

Construction

Remove the cover carefully and put it aside for future use. Take off both sides by withdrawing the nails, and cut off each end of the sides, making them the exact length of the box inside. Draw a pencil line across the bottom and up each end, 2 1/2 inches from the side edges. Set the sides in, keeping their outside faces on the pencil line, and secure them by nails driven through each end and through the bottom. Plane off all the edges necessary to make them even with each other, using sandpaper afterward to remove any objectionable blemishes or inequalities. Bore a hole 1/8 inch in diameter in the center of each end, 4 inches down from the top edge of the rack. Insert the hanging wires through the holes from the outside, and knot their ends tightly and sufficiently large not to be drawn through the holes when the rack is hung upon the wall and filled with books.
