I figure I would post a before and after of the re build on my living room built-ins. All work was done by myself (with help lifting the TV of course). Cabinets are birch with glass shelves and the recessed/built-in lighting is on a dimmer switch you can see on the left side.
Now, to build some side tables for the couch and such! I just have to convince the wife to let me buy a band saw so I can use some rarer woods and make some veneers for them!
