 Hardware. 2 picture hooks and picture wire.

 construction:  Remove the cover carefully and put it aside for future use. Take off both sides by withdrawing the nails, and cut off each end of the sides, making them the exact length of the box inside. Draw a pencil line across the bottom and up each end, 21/2 inches from the side edges. Set the sides in, keeping their outside faces on the pencil line, and secure them by nails driven through each end and through the bottom: Plane off all the edges necessary to make them even with each other, using sandpaper afterward to remove any objectionable blemishes or inequalities. Bore a hole 1/8 inch in diameter in the center of each end, 4 inches down from the top edge of the rack. Insert the hanging wires through the holes from the outside, and knot their ends tightly and sufficiently large not to be drawn through the holes when the rack is hung upon the wall and filled with books.

Otherwise, take the box apart by first removing the bottom, then the sides.  If any portions are rough or bear objectionable brands or blemishes, either plane or sandpaper them smooth while the parts are separated and the nails removed.  Draw a pencil line across the best face of each of the sides 4 inches from each end. Set the ends in, keeping the outside face of the ends exactly to the line, and nail each side to the ends, using care to keep all the edges even with each other. Draw a line across the best face of the bottom 4 inches from each end, and then put the bottom on, driving the nails in just far enough to tack it at first, as the bracket must be square. Lay the bracket on its side on the floor. Square it by holding the square inside while the back is securely nailed in place. Stain or paint as desired.  The bracket may be hung with wire from molding or fastened to the wall by two screws.
