Step 3: Set and Secure the Shelves

Space your shelves evenly -- the ones shown are 8 inches apart. To keep shelves in place, insert the dowel pieces through the twist of the rope at each corner under every board.

Editor's Tip: Once each dowel piece is in place, you can just twist it up and down for fine adjustment.
