This Masterpiece Entertainment Center was inspired by a local furniture retail outlet. I had seen a lot of pictures in magazines and finally drew up my own plans. There are no 45 degree miter cuts, (which makes it a little easier for the beginner.) I custom made all raised panel doors, including the stile and rails.
Teardrop glass was purchased from a local glass company. The lighting across the top is 3” recessed. This unit is actually five pieces that are stacked together and measures 76” x 21” x 85”. The top and shelf are 1” thick; the remainder of the unit is ¾” oak.
I pretreated all exterior surfaces with Minwax Pre-Stain Conditioner, and then applied two coats of Minwax oil stain. I then followed with seven coats of Minwax Oil Based Polyurethane ending with two coats of Minwax Paste Finishing Wax. About a ten day process!
