This was about the hardest wood working project I've ever built!
Made all the molding myself on my router table and it was a chore!
It was worth it though, I am very happy with the result!
Without some help, I would have ruined the finish but using folks' tips it came out fine!
The slide out shelf you see in the pic is for the monitor of my pc. I figured my recliner would sit far enough away from the cabinet that I'll be able to open the drawers, so I wanted to be able to have the monitor pull out where it would be easy to view. I moved the cabinet into my den yesterday and loaded it up with my pc and stuff and its great!!!
The slide out for the monitor works perfect and the monitor is at just the right distance and angle.
Thanks for checking out my thread guys!!!!

Excellent build! The finish looks good, and suits the style of the piece. Looks to be very functional.

That router work is not exactly fun!

Got to love it when the whole thing comes together Michael.

Bonus points for making the moldings..
Great job on the build.

I like it!! I bought a computer amoire years ago with a slide out tray for the keyboard, but yours sure beats the pants off mine.

Nice Job!!

Very nice Michael. Don't you love doing all that work and then "having" to cut a hole in the back so electrical wires can come through? :) I know I do!

Well done...

Hi, Michael.

This looks great. Any chance you could post a pic of it set up with your recliner? I've been pondering a very similar project to use with my new recliner and am curious to see how it looks in the room.

Thanks!

Harvey
