Large Size - Entertainment Center
I got it 99% complete, then... Well Ill just say, that I never got to finish it, or use it.
All it needs is a final sanding, and final coat of paint.
Oh, from moving it around by clumsy movers, that dragged it as opposed to lifting it, or putting it on a dolly, some of the small wheels got damaged.
This thing is heavy!
It was totally constructed out of 3/4 inch plywood, that was actually doubled all around the outer walls, then most of the load bearing horizontal sections.
It was carefully, specifically designed to accommodate a fifty-five inch television, and all the various extra components I had.
I knew that the best location for my receiver, and some other heavy components, would actually be above the television.
The receiver itself probably weighed at least fifty pounds. So I knew I would have to do some special construction on this, with all that weight above a very expensive television.
What I did was buy four lengths of 1 1/2 wide, steel angle iron, and embeded it into the shelf that the television sat on, then the shelf above the television.
With that design, I could probably park a small car on the top of this unit, and wouldnt have to worry about the television in the middle of it.
The double wall construction was a unique build in itself. The way I designed it, each piece of 3/4 inch plywood kind-of interlocked with another.
Almost as if, all the material started out being, one, and one half inch thick, and dado cuts were made for three/quarter inch material.
The way I interlocked all the pieces, made this unit virtually indescribable. Also, everything was glued and screwed.
I dont fool around when I build something, lol!
In the back of the unit, I cut large slots in some of the shelves for wire and cable runs. And on other shelves, cut in a recess, also for wire and cable runs.
If you notice from the pictures, the base of the unit looks like two separate columns of shelves.
I did this for a specific purpose and reason. The sub-woofer was to be located centered under the television.
I did not want the sub-woofer sitting on a shelf, connected to the rest of the unit.
Because of the strong extreme vibrations of the sub-woofer, it would have caused all the other components to vibrate right off their shelves.
Also, the vibrations would had interfeared with CD and DVD playing.
So, the sub-woofer would had been placed directly on the floor, but still a part of the whole entertainment center.
Its truly unique, and all of my own design.
This is the third entertainment center I had built, using some of these designs, and the first worked extremely well.
Again, it needs a little finish sanding, and a final coat of paint. Most of that in the rear of the unit. I mean it certainly can be used as it is...
Oh, and maybe some new casters if youre going to move it around.
I must confess, I cant even begin to estimate how much money I have just in material in this unit.
And I wouldnt even want to think back to how many hours Ive invested in this!
But it went on for months...
I actually have to build another, very similar to this, but smaller.
But because of the embedded steel angle iron, I wouldnt even want to think about cutting this down!
I do have exact measurements of the entire unit, as well as each shelf or section.
I do still have my original design drawing, with all the diamentions shown, but its kind-of buried at the moment.
I will for the moment estimate that the entire unit is about six foot long, six foot high, and about twenty-four inches in depth.
And I wont even give an estimate on the weight...
For anyone really interested, I will dig out the exact measurements.
Its really hard for me to list a price on this. I know its not going to bring a lot of interest.
Its one of those things that only just the right person, would go nuts for.
Right now its just sitting in storage, and being used as shelves for other things.
Oh... Roughly the entire cabinet is about 6 foot high, 6 foot wide, and about 20 inches deep.
I dont know... Ill just throw out $700 and see what happens.
