This posting is all new to me. Bear with me.
There seems to be a love for woodworking in the creek and so, thus far, most of my time has been spent reading and browsing enjoying the atmosphere here. Much has been learned by me.
This thread will be an attempt to go through the steps taken to design an entertainment center. I am not sure how I will remember where I left off but you all seem rather forgiving, it may work and I may be able to finish. That is my intent. If a post is not responded to forgive me as one might forgive a lesser child.
First.
How much money do you have left after you buy the new big screen DLT?
If you want an Ent.C then you need to know what is going into it, i.e. size screen, height, width, and depth exactly as sometimes it all comes down to 1/8". Do you want to hang the TV or use a stand. The stand maybe the actual cabinet the manufacturer sells the tv in. What are the specs. for the stand or physical depth of a bracket you may use to hang that TV. Does it get hot and if so what is the recommended distance around it necessary to provide cooling. These are not questions between you and me they are statements and don't need a question mark after the sentence , I think.
We have made our first major step by determining a specific physical 3d space in which the tv will be.
This phase of the planning along with the physical aspect of making a story pole is the most difficult, and that is why it will be, I think, a help to try to go through this the way I approach it. My way is not the only way, just my way.
