Initialed Book Ends Here is the original article from the September - October 1955 Deltagram ROCKWELL MANUFACTURING COMPANY - A DELTACRAFT PULICATION By cutting the initials of either your first or last name and tracing it onto 1½ inch thick stock, you can make some very attractive book ends. Should you decide to use heavier stock up to 2½ inches thick, bore holes into the bottom and fill with lead for weight and stability. Cut the letters on the band saw, using a 3/16 inch skip tooth blade. Finish the book ends any color you desire with a semi-gloss enamel. Glue a piece of felt to the bottom surface to prevent the book ends from marring your furniture. * * * * Click on the pictures above to see a higher resolution picture. * * * * *********** WARNING*********** Read my page on safety before building this item.
