Very nice!

I looks more. How deep is it?

 

[Jupiter01]

300mm deep. 2.4m wide and around 2.2m tall

 

[danechip]

Looks like 18mm?

 

[Jupiter01]

The MDF sheets were 18mm thick.

Also, many of my sections are 250mm deep as I am planning to have some led strips on the back of a couple of shelves. The void should slow the light to spread across the entire bookshelf

Excellent job, Jupiter

[Jupiter01]

When I apply my top coat of brown satinwood, should two coats be adequate given the two coats of primer I have already applied?

Also, should I sand between these coats too?

 

[danechip]

I would 'lightly' sand, And I don't know how many coats. It depends on the quality of the product, and more so, whatever 'YOU' like.

Maybe a few drawers, can never have too many drawers.

UPDATE: cleared up this evening and wanted to share the final pics. Thanks again for all your help.
