Progress!

I'm usually a painfully slow builder. But actually bought the boards yesterday afternoon, cut the lengths, drilled the dowel holes, and started the initial glue up phases in just a few hours.

Side leg assembly:

Top surface support box:

Final assembly:

Will slightly round off the edges with the router and finish it with shellac and thinned poly. Totally overkill for something that'll be hidden behind my TV but, eh, it'll be really satisfying to see a nice finished product!

Nice work.

Nostr need more woodworking posts.

What are you planning to use for the heavy angled falling blade?

Applied three coats of shellac last night and a first light coat of polyurethane this morning. Will do some light sanding once the poly is no longer tacky and then a final poly coat and it'll be done!

Rounded off all the edges with the router. Photos don't adequately convey how much nicer it looks without the hard 90° edges.
