That thing will outlive the house it's in.

@joseolivarez5693 2 года назад

Nicely made, love the simple and clear instructions. Great video and thank you for keeping it simple with the tools, nothing fancy on the tools or cuts. We appreciate it. Keep them coming.

@smashyrashy 2 года назад

A nicely made tv stand at a good height is definitely better than mounting the tv on the wall if you have lots of consoles speakers etc. This is great!

@kushalphoenix1 9 месяцев назад

Love the size & look of the fireplace, installation was easy. We switched out our gas fireplace to an electric one & we couldn't be happier!

Great looking TV stand. Well done. I'm interested in building a 3x4 Kitchen Cart on casters to store some kitchen appliances, and to create a large cutting board surface. I'll be using your designs as inspiration. Of course, if you want to do a similar project, even better. Cheers!

@DanVanDamme 2 года назад

Awesome work. I think I found my next project! Question for you - Measuring from the floor, what is the height of the shelf where you put your sound bar? I may actually install drawer with drawer slides so I can hide my Korg Trinity Music workstation (digital piano) and slide it out when I want to play.

@jasonludwick3504 9 месяцев назад

If you are going to do this build, craig has not done enough fact checking on his work. First off you dont need 14 2 x 4 as the cheeck list says. You need 12. Secondly as i put the 2 x 2 sides together they end up being wider than the base and thats as far as ive got so far in the build so double check dont just go off his cut list. Ive wasted time and $ by doing so.

"pocket holes". That must weigh a ton. Looks good.

I dont have a work table. Can you always cut on polystyrene insulation? Will the saw not cut through?

This is a great project! Only thing I would have added would have been some legs on the bottom.

@LifeIsBeautifulIODG 8 месяцев назад

This is really beautiful, I love to do things wiht I am working on my first TV stand and bed. I see that the electric wood cutter is a must or are there mills that help to cut the wood or can we rent the tools?

Is it 2x10’s or 2x12’s..10’s are listed but 12 is what’s said in the video?

@marcellemay7721 Год назад

I love the design! But, I'll probably use some nicer planed wood, finish plywood, and stain it to give it a more finished look and make it a bit lighter. The dimensions and design are just about perfect for what I want to build. Thanks for the idea.

@jurnagin Год назад

Hey it looks great but I'm thinking all that 2by 4 us just way too heave for a tv, simply using 3/4 plywood will be strong enough, can always be braced in corners, his method makes it way too heavy and you'll hate it when you need to move it

@marcellemay7721 Год назад

@@jurnagin I agree.

@jurnagin Год назад

My parents gave me a dresser made this way and now I see why they gave it to me, it's so heavy! I can't get rid of it because it's too heavy to give away because I don't wanna struggle with it

Just completed it did come out looking great. Honestly though if it was built with mostly 2x 10s it would have been so much easier. I don’t how much that would change the look but damn 2x4s are a pain.

@MichaelRobinson-vw4jg Год назад

I just bought a 75 inch TV, will these measurements work?

@johnlamb4465 Год назад

May we ask how much the build cost I. Supplies at the time of making this video?

@marc4008 Месяц назад

If I wanted a more professional look, would I just have to sand each outword facing surface after assembly but before painting? I noticed chips in the 2x4s that would drive me crazy

@dba3579 Год назад

Nice build. A question if I may, would the use of 1x4 instead of 2x4 compromise the integrity of the TV stand? I have have a 47lbs tv. Thanks

@LeggoMyEggo89 Год назад

I love it but I'm a little confused at 25 seconds you said you're using 2x12 for the top but on the description they both say 2x10. And at 42 seconds they look like 2x10s not 2x12s

@bartosullivan8050 2 года назад

@kylet3589 Год назад

Looks great but would be better of you could build a lighter weight base and also if you could keep the plywood to one thickness instead of 3 different types as they are roughly $30-50/piece for those alone

Dude you “F”ing ROCK. Quick question what’s the big deal about passing all material through plainer? I don’t get it? Is it necessary?

Hey I just built this and it's amazing , great instructions but could have talked a little slower, and it looks good but it's just entirely way too heavy! The whole thing can be made with 3/4 plywood and feet can be added to make it more fancy

@austinrayfuller Год назад

How long did it take you to build it?

@jurnagin Год назад

@@austinrayfuller It doesn't take long at all,after work I spent a hour every day on it and had it done in a week,I wasn't in a hurry, my back was hurting from a injury, I have a mitre saw so cutting the 2 by lumber was easy and quick,, now instead of making all those pocket holes I just screwed boards together with screws and held together with scrap wood as a brace

@kgknight 2 года назад

Your build sheet is a little off. You have (2) 2’x10”x8’ listed and in the video you use (2) 2’x12”x8’ just wanted to point that out. I love your design and I’m in the process of using it for my entertainment center.

@michaelcoglianese6377 2 года назад

I'm thinking of recreating this as a high boy, but I am not sure if your dimensions are what I'm looking for. What are the fully assembled dimensions, including height and depth of shelves?

@michaelcoglianese6377 2 года назад

What kind of wood did you use 🤔 pressure treated pine?

@BuildItBetter 2 года назад

TV stand dimensions are 75" wide, 18.5" deep, & 25.5" tall. Sound bar opening is 6" tall x 69" wide & each shelve is 6" tall x 22" wide. Wood is normal pine for affordability and you can always build with higher quality wood, but I wouldn't recommend pressure treated for inside furniture (typically needs 6 months to dry out).

@michaelcoglianese6377 2 года назад

@Build It Better wow, thank you so much. I can't wait to get started. You do such beautiful work. One last question. Are all the shelves the same depth?

$180. You do not need all of these tools mentioned. Practice free handing on a smaller piece of wood before you start on your project, doors and face plate can be a more thinner piece of wood. He had a designer wood for his interior.

You use a pocket hole jig, to make pocket holes. They are not called pocket jig holes.

@abicollen5795 2 года назад

NFW Way overkill. Now days you don’t need to make anything that would last more than 5 years Specifically if you’re making it yourself 3-4 years and you are ready for something new

@Funknwanker Год назад

Pocket screws are unnecessary to make a panel, glue is sufficient.

@gamingbytetv665 11 месяцев назад

I used an old wardrobe hahah turned it on its side, took the doors off it and put a shelf in the middle and made sections out of it by placing a two dividers in it. Painted it, and you'd never be able to tell it was a wardrobe. All because I was too cheap to go and buy an actual TV unit(TV is 75 inch, which didn't help the cost factor ). Way I saw it is the wardrobe was doing nothing and it was gonna end up at the recycling centre, so I may as well make some use of it.
