This is my first post to in this forum! I just finished making this television stand for our ‘relatively’ new LCD. This was my first attempt at book matching (side panels).

It is made from cherry and is finished with three coats of 2 parts Minwax ‘TungOil Finish’ and 1 part pure tung oil.

Thanks for looking.

Great looking stand. The flared legs give it a stylish, modern look.

The only “problem” I can see is that when shopping for new electronics, you may be have to look at size first (been there, done that and bought the T-shirt. :>)

I also like it! Love the legs, very stylish, realy improves on the rectangular box that is so common.

Really nice piece. Great craftsmanship.

I am a big fan of Green Design Furniture, I met the owner and got to see several of their pieces at a furniture show. I love the style.

Between Green Design and Thos. Moser we have all the inspiration we need:)

Great looking table. I like the taper in the legs. The cherry you picked out, combined with the book matching and your finish gives this table a real nice glow. Great work.
