TV Stand with Display Cabinets


The main unit of the TV stand was completed several weeks ago. Since then I've been working on the two display cabinets, each of which has a single adjustable shelf. The cabinets are specifically intended to provide a place to display Carole's bowls -- all of which, incidentally, are made with a scroll-saw, not a lathe. As soon as her new Fox-Chapel book comes out, we'll be able to display her newest creations as well.

The TV stand and the cabinets are all solid cherry, except for the 1/2" plywood backs. All joinery is hand cut, even the carcase dovetails that are not visible in the photo. The finish is shellac. At this time only the main unit has been rubbed out; in several weeks I'll rub out the display cabinets as well.
