all of the invisible and upsidown bookshelves are cool. they made me think about making a book shelf that looks like its falling. I've seen it on the internet one and it's awsome.

Do you happen to have the link for the falling bookshelf? I'd really like to see it.

I don't remember where it was but it looked as if someone karate-chopped three floating bookshelves twice then took a picture of the boards and books falling in midair. I think that the picture was on funnyjunk.com. careful going on the site though beacause thiers a bunch of spam and stuff like that.

In my coffee shop (die-buchbar.de) we made a bar out of color sorted books.
We also got some of the invisible bookshelves hanging around.

So if you ever come to Dresden, Germany, be sure to drop by.

That looks like a very nice coffee shop!

The multi-color bar is quite pretty. Any chance you'd care to write up an Instructable?

If I'm ever in Dresden, I'll be sure to say hello.
