Two Door Corner Entertainment Cabinet
This corner entertainment center was designed and built in the style of a simple shaker corner cabinet. The dimensions and interior partitions were reconfigured to house a 32" TV and various audio and video components . The wood used to build this cabinet comes from a log home which was constructed in the 1880's. Most of the planks came from the exterior logs and beams and had beautiful coloring and patina. The overall size of the cabinet can be customized to your space requirements.
This cabinet could easily be built from Maple, Walnut, Mahogany or Cherry - which would produce a more formal appearance. The base and crown molding profiles, as well as the door style and overall size could be modified for a different purpose.
The unit is designed to fit into a corner.
The case construction is hand cut dovetail joints with sliding dovetails to attach the fixed shelves.
The back is attached with dado joints and cut nails.
The frame and panel doors feature pinned mortise and tenon construction
The backboards are solid wood with ship lap joinery
All hardware is hand forged iron.
The drawer is divided to hold audio CD's
The piece is finished with a green stain to simulate a wash coat of milk paint - light distressing was added to produce an aged appearance.
