The top of the shelves will have a box to cover the backside of the compass on the port side and the depth gauge on the starboard side. Inside the box I'll use a block attached with JB weld and at the bottom I'll use a french hasp. I'll post pictures when it's all done.

I'm making mahogany bulkhead shelves to put on the inside cabin bulkhead. I'm looking for advice on what would be the best glue to use for mahogany. I'll use typical morticed joints and babbet corners and prefer not to use any screws, etc. Thanks much Joe SeaFrog M17
