Sassy lowline entertainment unit unit
Hi all,
I've been working on this for longer than I care to admit and while it's in the house now, it's still not finished
. I don't have a back on the component section and the bottom left & right openings are waiting for drawers to be made but I just wanted it out of the shed so here it is 
.
Brief description of pics in order...
1. Who needs CAD software
2. Layout
3. Frame
4. Slab top
5. Frame
6. Frame
7. Frame
8. Raised panel test
9. Raised panel dry fit - end
10. Future drawer fronts... more to come
It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

I would say a job well done once it was finished. But your telling us that it's not quite finish.
I can relate to having something take so long that you get a little side tracked along the way. If you were closer I would drop by and help you finish the last few items. But what I really mean I will annoy you so much that when I head home your motivation would be to get it done so I would not have to visit again.
By the way I like the top.

Thanks guys,
Christos, noting it's taken me over three years on and off to get here the drawers may be a while off yet
Sandow, I didn't really have any problems with sanding other than I should have cut the box lid out before finishing. I had it all done and finished then scratched the top a little when I cut the lid out so had to put another coat of finish on
