Nice build!  Love the clean lines.  I would have spent a week painting that!  [eek]

Next time you're there, say "high" for me [wink]

Nice!!!  I wish that high ceilings were more prevalent here.  Most of the homes in my area have only 7' 6" ceilings.

  Nice work!  Crisp, square and clean looking but I do have a few questions:
1.  Is that really painted or is it melamine?  Either way, it looks great!
2.  What's the reason for the large holes drilled in the dividers above the stereo row?
3.  Is that ladder built using the Rockler kit?  I'm thinking of doing something with their kit it but it's pretty expensive!

Thanks,

Nicely done and looks great!

Great work.  Curious about the support mechanism for the verticals in the top half.  Is that trim placed around them at the bottom for alignment/joinery purposes, or is it just decorative?

That is amazing, especially given the amount of time!  It would take me longer than two days just to think about how to build it.  LOL

Please share more details about the materials and construction.

Thanks, Mike A.

Nice job, was it pre fabricated in the shop or all built on site?

 

[JeremyH.]

No shit, how'd it get done so fast?

All materials for casework ultralight MDF, had one of my painters paint is on site once completed ( about 8 hours to spray, 2 hours to site protect room ) Holes were requested by client for future electronics, Ladder If I remember was from The Ladder store on line, painted to match

Trim is used to help finish off all box locations for both support and a clean finish look. All box locations are screwed to studs and all boxes near the fronts I used sex bolts to make sure I had no gaps between the next case. Crown on top is client request to match rest of room and also to finish top with a nice look....

Very well done. Great job!

Beautiful work!!!  Just curious if you put it down on top of the existing carpet (I think I see carpet) or did you have to cut out for the footprint of the cabinet?
