Console/Bookcase

I finally finished a console bookcase to go along with the cherry desks and built-ins I did for the office a couple years ago. This will replace a rolling wire shelf and will hold my mini-tower computer, some audio gear, and maybe even some books;) It has a hinged top that opens to a shallow area I will use to manage the cables to the gear. Cherry and cherry plywood.

I designed it in the same style as the desks and followed the same finishing schedule. But as you can see, it's quite a bit lighter than the desks as they have darkened a fair amount since they were built. I expect the bookcase will catch up to them eventually.

Lovely! Very pleasing to look at!

Very nice work. That shallow area could be a nice hiding spot for more than just cables. Might want a secret lock for it though.
