[Shop-talk] Construction opinion poll

[Jim Franklin]

Having a disagreement with someone and thought I'd solicit opinions.

If you were asked to create a built-in storage cabinet in a floor-to-ceiling
nook, and you knew the nook wasn't square, would you build a square cabinet
and shim it level and use molding to cover the gaps, or literally build it in
place, knowing the uprights wouldn't be parallel and the shelves (held in
place with columns of holes and shelf pins) probably not level, but there
would be no gaps?
