DIY entertainment center

Thank god for site's like ana white.com. I was able to begin making furniture. I took her plans for a rhyan console table. I tweaked it a bit to fit all of our unnecessary game consoles and made the length much longer to fill up all the wall space we have.


  I must say this project only cost 80 dollars in materials.
 
I rusted out the hardware with a solution of vinegar salt and hydrogen peroxide.  Let it sit a day and dry.

I have an obsession with old spanish colonial furniture so to replicate the aged wood I distressed the whole piece with a metal chain, hammer and gouged the surface with a cheap set of wood carving tools from Michael's. The color of the stain is Dark walnut with one coat.

    Any chance you have your cut list for your version shown here?

      HI Shannon. So sorry about the delay. I don't have the cut list on hand but I did use the same proportions as the cut list on this website http://ana-white.com/2011/12/plans/rhyan-console-table. I altered the length only to fit my wall area. I also disregarded the center drawers in the original plans. Hope this helps.
