This is a fun piece. I made this out of 2x4 framing lumber and sheets of 1/4" ac ply. I built this very rough. All the rails and stiles are mortised and tenoned together but I didn't use glue because I new the wood was going to shrink as it dried out. I did pin the joints together with brads to hold it in place. The joints did separate but created a very rustic look. I ran all the lumber through the planer to clean it up but did not sand any of it down. I liked the look of the machine marks. The crown on the top I made out of a piece of 2x6. I ran it through the table saw at an angle to get the oval shaped cove at the top. the rest I shaped with a hand plane. The two upper doors open then slide back into some pockets to expose a TV. The two doors on the bottom cover shelving that holds the components for the entertainment system. My original plans have a book shelf on either side with speakers mounted in the bottom portion. but because of the massive size I tend to build things. I did not have room in the room for the 2 cabinets. Originally I had stained and lacquered it, but later decided to paint it black and then beat it up (upon my decorators request). I have built a similar one for a cabin up in Island Park that is used for clothing. I went big with that one also and ended up cutting the thing off half way to get it through the doors in to the room. then putting it back together.

Oh I also did the little shelf on the wall. It's mdf with working drawers.
