Well I figured I would show you folks a work in progress to add an entertainment area / bookcase / display shelves to my man cave. I actually got the idea after seeing JKNO's shelves and have actually been waiting two years to implement this as it all revolves around my 55 inch widescreen tv.

This is basically just the tv area and it measures roughly 16 inches deep by 60 inches wide by 85 inches tall. I put the Walker in it to give it a bit of perspective.



You may also notice more routing in the sides which was made for shelf track pilaster strips that I will get in there after this gets a couple coats of poly.



After I get this secured to the wall and square, my next step is to create the two bookcases and get them installed and then it will all recieve a face frame to make it look like an all one piece construction.

Looking good Shawn!

Thanks, it will look like a lot more when I get the bookcases added and I do have them routed, but I need to get this part square to the wall so I can get some good width measurements for the bookcases. With plywood at 50 dollars for a 4 by 8 sheet I can't afford to get any measurements wrong. Daggone wood has gone up in the past  year I know that!

Looking good, Shawn!  So what size HDTV are we getting?  Looks big enough for a 42"-50" or so, right?  It's always fun to do little projects like that.  So much more fun and so much nicer than buying from a store.

Thanks Pat, I already got the TV a 55 inch Vizio with the wifi option. It is sweet even though I only got to watch one Steeler game on it.

Trust me it is worth every penny.

On that note I got the frace frame applied today and all of the cut work done on the bookshelves. I am hoping this weekend will see most of the construction work finished.

Shawn, I've wondered for years if you were a bad influence to me and now, it is certain.
   My site to store 55 lcd tv showed up with a cracked screen all the way from California and I took it back and bought the very same tv that you got. Thus far, it has me so sucked in that I am having a hard time leaving the living room and I still havent played a ps3 game on it yet.

Thanks Spry, had to take a bit of a break from working on them, but I am hoping things get resolved and I can get back to work.

The glass doors will be on the upper and lower sections with the middle being the spot for the tv, the dimensions are roughly 28 inches by 28 inches for the lower doors and about 17 by 28 for the upper set.

I hear you bud, I love mine. I think you made a good choice. I can't find a thing I don't like about it yet.

Yes, very much so Serg. I have some updated pics from what I was able to get done today where I attached two bookcases / display units to it. The pics will help that last description make more sense too btw.
