About a month ago, I read about the Little Free Library project: http://www.littlefreelibrary.org, and decided to make one when the weather was warmer here in Wisconsin. So, here it is. It took all day, but I started with a recycled cabinet from Restore, rather that build the whole thing from scratch. It was 1/2 price day, and the cabinet cost $15. Everything was recycled, except the board I cut for the shelves.
I put it up this afternoon, and have already got some ‘action’! I may set up a table, and my latte machine out there!
Destructive Testing 
Very very cool idea 🙂 I remember a time when our little post office in my hometown did something similar to this years and years ago. I guess people were taking but not returning books because they stopped the “mini library”
This is a great idea Mike, and it looks really cool! I should send you a book for your library.
Great, I’ve already had some ‘borrowers’.
this is such a noble idea….
‘Noble’ makes me nervous. It was fun though, and I’m interacting with my neighbors more, already.

Excellent idea!!!
Nice! I love the free libraries! And great craftsmanship!
