Nice project!
By the way, the other day I watched a mini-video on Shaker furniture rationale.  The ability to clean/sweep under furniture was a *big deal* for them.  And it makes for some visual elegance as well.

After all that work and that's how big the TV is? You need a new BIG TV!

Got my son to help hump it up the stairs, and hang it. Have a buddy that told me "it ain't solid unless you can stand on it" - so that's why we took that shot.

TV is 55" - plenty large. If it were any bigger, I'd have to sit outside to watch it......

Hi Barry,

A valid observation. Lots of neander work was done.... Jack Plane, Scraping plane, chisels, bench. Mind you - lots of Festool too.

Gotta use all the tools!

Side note, I once posted a build-along that listed the music I listened to at each stage, and you ragged on me for not enough indie material. My turn. A monkey? That's not very indie.

Post more of these.

I'll do that next time!

I do have music in the shop - this time was mostly the Decemberists (went to a concert in Toronto last month), Radiohead, and Coeur de Pirate. Also been listening to Soko, and Youth Lagoon.... mostly as they're on the same playlist.
