Stack/Attach Bookcases

I'm going to attach a second one of the bookshelves pictured above on top of itself I'll need to cut about an inch out of the height to make it fit in the room I'm planning it for. Planning on cutting that out of the bottom using a circular saw. Worried/unsure how to make sure that I cut the exact same amount from each vertical Looking for recommendations for how to approach the project please! I'm a complete novice Thanks in advance

Lookin for a jointer

Coming to the realization old steel is the way if it works well. Any input on this old delta ? Im pretty gut level with woodworking tools.

I made a wooden deer sculpture, thoughts?

First time trying to make something pretty

Made this Blackbutt bench seat from reclaimed wood from a local salvage yard. I learned a few lessons in preparation for making the dining table next. It gave me a great excuse to get a domino and an ETS EC 150!

Help! Waxed cotton jacket left stains/marks on wood bannister

Sorry if this isn’t the right sub to post this. I left a waxed cotton jacket on this wood banister for a day or two and it left this behind. Is there any way to fix it aside from refinishing the banister? I’m assuming some of the wax melted onto the banister because of the rad nearby. I’ve tried soap and water, vinegar and water, and using a hair dryer.

What’s going on with my dining table?

I applied two coats of tung oil (waiting 72 hours between applications) to the table and after hosting thanksgiving dinner the table has a few discolored spots like this now. I’m not sure how to fix them, I attempted to add more tung oil but that did nothing. Do I try to finely sand and reapply tung oil to the entire table? Do I need to use something else after the tung oil to protect the finish? Apologies but I’m still new to woodworking and fear I’ve made a bunch of rookie mistakes.

Human size photo box

Someone asked me to build a photo box for them. After decorated, persons would take pictures in it. Can anyone assist me with guidance on how I keep the pieces together. What hinges I should use and if possible, an idea of the plan to put it together in a sturdy manner?

Framing an Asymmetrical Mirror

So I've got another project in the works that is entirely new to me. I want to frame this mirror for my wife, but conventional techniques won't work, for obvious reasons. I'm considering something like using construction adhesive to anchor the mirror to 1/2" or 5/8" plywood backing trimmed to the same profile, but I'm unsure how to finish the trim. The trim needs to extend inward from the edge by about an inch to cover up imperfections. I've never tried steam bending, but it wouldn't be my first choice. I'm curious if there is any kind of weather stripping or similar flexible material that could aesthetically double as trim, any input on the plan I have so far, or a completely different direction is welcome! The mirror is 1/2" thick 54" long and ~31" wide at the base
