For a few weeks, been building a TV stand, similar to one Swmbo seen at a local furniture store. Measures 33H x 18W x 56L , using red oak and red oak plys. I am almost ready for stain. Built on the fly, and I had a few problems to overcome. Had to cut a lip on the 7/8" thick doors, base 1" too narrow. I almost used all the one 3/4"- 4x8 sheet of ply. A few pics.
8.5 high base. Took a bun foot pattern and added a few inches to it. That's so Swmbo can get to vac under it.
bead detail. Was supposed to be 1 bead, but a mistake in bit height had me cutting another pass lower to rescue the pieces
20" wide top! I added 3.5" oak band on the remaining ply I had.
1/4" oak ply screwed on, removable for spray finishing
test assembly, shelves, top, back, base are all removable for finishing. I am using a metal clip I bought to hold the top and base on. Cutting a biscuit slot on the inside of the oak frame for the clip to fit into.
door lip cut, wrap around hinges
