Project Information
Here is a TV stand I made my girl friend !!!, it is made of red oak plywood with a solid wood with a 5/4 thick top.
The inside of the cabinet was pre-finished (painted and stained) before assembly which made things easier overall.
I had to custom match the stain to her existing end tables and the color came out really close to the the table color she wanted. I finished the piece with 5 thin coats of Crystalac and then hand rubbed it out and then waxed it. Overall it came out looking ok even thou I did not like working with a wiping stain, it was hard to blend the color evenly. Any comments would be nice !!! Have a great day.
