Ken, the more I look at that entertainment center the more impressed I am. Good job. The color is beautiful, and the grain stands out really well. That must be a tremendous source of pride for you.

You have no idea. Every time anybody comes over, he immediately walks them over to it fishing for compliments...

Great job on the entertainment center Ken!

...and the cables, too!!

Nice to see a pair of M50s standing OutSide of their restricting cabinets for a change!! Looks good!

Also nice to see a black-with-white cat near the M50s as well, as our poor ol' 15 year-old family member passed on just before we got our M50s.

Sorry to hear that, F107. My parents had a tabby that was 16 years old and going deaf. You could sneak up on it outside while it slept in the grass. Only bad thing was that it meowed really loud, because she couldn't hear herself. She usually did that at 3 in the morning.

Sounds like my deaf cat. He was born deaf, though.

Thank even more of you!

SQ-my little plan is to get a 32" widescreen when they come down in price (and/or when this thing kicks the bucket). We'll see...

The entertianment center was a lot of work, but well worth it. And a lot of fun. Other than the finishing. I'd love it if I could just build things and have someone else finish them... That's actually what took the most time. I screwed up pretty badly on the finish (never use a rotary sander between coats....) and was so depressed by it I didn't even look at it for 6 months.

Sorry to hear about your kitty, F107. Our oldest girl is about 12. The one in the picture is 10.

I know what you mean. The more I look at it, the more I get impressed as well. I have a feeling Ken is very meticulous in his work. Look at the doors...they fit in the cabinet perfectly like a piece of a puzzle...no gaps anywhere and they're totally even! That perfection is not seen too often in premade stuff. Again, Ken...wonderful work!

So you're saying Ken's a control freak, huh?

Well, yeah...

The doors were remarkably difficult, and I'm still not entirely happy with them. Unfortunately, with front mounted things, it's kind of hard to redo them! The holes are there, they're not going to go away if I want to reposition stuff...
