Here are some photos of the TV panel, drawers and shelves that I’ve completed and installed. I hope you like it all.
The panel veneer is poplar burr with a solid cherry surround and ebony stringing for the dark line border. The surface is Welsh slate, Berwyn slate quarry near Llangollen.
I made the drawers from birch plywood and sprayed a high gloss lacquer on the fronts.
This is a detail of the drop flaps. I mitre cut the solid cherry edge and the ebony inlay. The hinges are hidden when the flap is closed.
These two glass shelves are 12mm thick. I cut a 12mm wide slot with a router into the backing and simply slotted them in. The fit was tight enough to hold them in place without any more fixing. Phew!
