I'm working on Scott Moore's plan - I like the simplicity, but (of course now that I've glued up the bottom shelf 1x6 boards) I have a question about the 2x4 cross members. It appears everyone is just screwing into the end grain of those 2x4's to secure them to the 1x6?
I'm not a wood worker, but is that legit? Would it be better to look at some joist hangers or will a couple 2.5 inch decking screws hold and not split out the wood? Thanks for any help you all can provide!
