While the concept of an honor-system book exchange-along the lines of the twee structures pictured here-was new to most of my classmates, they found it intriguing and quickly weighed in on design elements, such as the depth of the shelf, the choice of roofing material, and the joinery on the inset front door. So do the guys in my class, who have “helped” in ways I never could have expected. With God as my witness, I will finish this Little Free Generic Front-Yard Book Exchange Cupboard, if it kills me, because I’ve got too much time invested now. I have been known to start projects and not finish them, as my children sweetly remind me. I thought it wise to wait to ante-up the 40 bucks for official designation and the accompanying placard until I actually get the thing completed.

To be precise, I suppose I should say I’m neck-deep in the construction of a Generic Front-Yard Book Exchange Cupboard, because I haven’t yet applied for official Little Free Library status from the nonprofit organization that oversees the network of book exchanges. While the guys in construction class build concealed gun cabinets, Big Green Egg grill tables, and a deck for the back of a renovated ski boat, I am neck-deep in the construction of a Little Free Library.
