¼" bolt

A rare-earth magnet

works well to raise the

lock bolt and stores

out of sight on a metal

shelf pin.

With the bookcase upright, slide the

drawer into place. Have a helper move

the bolt up and down with a magnet from

inside the case while you position the alumi-

num angle on the back of the drawer [Photo F].

Put the case where you want to show off

some things and hide a few others.
