So this Christmas the family got a new TV and now my old TV stand won't do any longer. So the "tragedy" is that I have to spend more time in the shop to make a new setup.
Anyway - as I am doing some sketches and planning on what I want to make I came up with the idea that it would be nice to be able to access the back of all the various pieces of equipment. Stuff like the satellite tuner, DVD player, VCR, stereo equipment, etc. I seem to remember seeing somewhere someplace a design that had the equipment on a set of shelves inside the entertainment center, but the entire set of shelves were hinged. This would allow you to swing out the set of shelves at least 90 degrees, if not more, and access the back panels. Of course you would need extra cable length and probably some good cable management to make this work.
Has anyone else seen something like that? If so, any pictures or links? I can't seem to find anything using google (maybe I'm not using the right search terms). Any other ideas along these lines?
