Media center cabinet completed
Thanks to all who contributed to my previous thread on this project.
This was a Christmas present for my brother. I didn't quite make it, it took a couple extra late nights after Christmas. I learned quite a bit while doing this project. It is my 2nd attempt at "fine furniture". I used Walnut and went all the way from rough sawn to finished product. I used stopped dados on the sides and top. The drawer is a false front with poplar case and hand cut dovetails. It's hard to tell, but the top shelf is adjustable and there is a bottom baseboard that is inset 1/8". The finish is Watco medium walnut.
I'm really happy with the way it came out although it took much more time and effort then i ever thought it would.
The pictures aren't the best, but the delivery man(my dad) was in a rush to leave. The 2nd pic is probably closet to the true color.
