Black & Tan Entertainment Center

This is a 3 piece unit, 2 book shelves & center console. Center and right shelves are adjustable. I hid the power strip in in a compartment behind the drawers. Maple trim & tops, sides & shelves are birch.

I used Tung oil for the finish. The “Black Paint” was made from an idea I got from someone, mix equal parts Tung Oil & black stain. Gives a great hard finish but what a pain, took 6 coats, & lots of sanding. I would have been better off using a black lacquer & clear coat.

-- Quality: There is hardly anything in the world that some men cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price are this man’s lawful prey.
