Step 62 - Building an Entertainment
Center in the
Apartment
A
TV cabinet fell really low on our priority list...we haven't had
television since June 2008.
Chip has constructed the upper portion of the entertainment center and
I have got several coats of finish on it.
Chip starts to glue it up. The
Gentle Winds job took a lot more time than we planned, so this was
put on the back burner.
The top gets glued up, except for the trim. The final coats
of finish are applied after glue-up.
The bottom is
then glued-up and dry-fitted, and then finished.
It takes 4 of us to move the bottom of the entertainment center
downstairs.
Chip installed a swing arm lamp and two surge protectors.
Then he installed the
fabric that covers the stereo bass and speakers.
This is how it looks installed...Chip still has to finish up the
wine rack that connects to the kitchen cabinets.
The stereo components are protected from salt
spray. We have a great place to stash the
laptop, too.
The entertainment center is getting lots of use.
AND YES...AFTER THREE YEARS WE NOW HAVE SATELLITE TELEVISION!
(We rarely watch television, but Chip is thrilled to have it for
football games.) This
