TV stand - Woodworking Talk

M109rPilot · 01-19-2009, 12:03 AM

Hello everyone,
My name is Jason, IM from Va Beach Va. Im looking to build a small tv stand that will hold up to a 46 inch LCD tv. I dont want to do anything elaborate. Just something about 2 ft tall and about 3 ft long. The only storage that is needed is for a PS3 and Wii and the controllers and games. It doesnt have to have any doors, maybe just some shelves. Does anyone know of or have any plans that I may be able to use?

Thank you,
Jason

Jason! Greetings from Portsmouth! Best of luck with your project. You're a pilot huh? Navy pilot? If so the Norfolk Navy base has a very nice woodshop should you find yourself needing more tools. I should know it was "my" woodshop for 4 years until I bought my house.

Anyway, Take care and best of luck!

I'd love to have your plans for the TV cabinet. I have designed one, but I like yours better. Here is the one I designed. I used Google SketchUp to do it.

I recently built a custom one that was designed to make my wall-mounted TV look as if it were on the stand. It will hold toys in baskets on the bottom shelf, DVDs and knick knacks on the middle shelf, and has two top-hinged doors for the AV equipment. A soundbar will go on top and the subwoofer to the side.

I had originally intended to make a custom unit with exhaust fans, a small area for IR repeaters, and built-in cable management... but I'm new to woodworking in general so I figured I'd make something simple first :D

It's currently in the finishing room (aka the garage) with its second coat of poly drying.

However, this is what I'd love to make a copy of with some minor modifications:

One of the coolest features:

Hi Jason, I'm just across the road a bit at Oceana. Here's a few pics of a simple design I am using for my 46" TV. I don't have plans at the moment but can take some quick measurements and shoot them to you if interested. Let me know.

BTW, it was our coldest day in VB on the day my wife wanted it painted so had to go inside. She was nervous the entire time thinking I was going to get on the couch...ha.
