  • The finished bookcase media wall.  I left the middle section open for a large flat screen t.v.  There's a hole in the countertop towards the wall for cords, and an electrical outlet accessible in the middle cabinet.
  • All trimmed, painted, and lights installed.
  • I used stock wall cabinets (12" deep) from Home Depot as lower cabinets, so I had to build a base for them.  I was reusing some cabinets from a previous media wall attempt that didn't turn out so great, which is why they're painted.

    dead.I wanted him to cut up some pieces for me to work with but he said " No!" because the tree was rotten and it had termites so I couldn't bring any of it inside of the house.I don't know if this was true or not but better safe than sorry.I would recommend that you have someone that knows more about trees and bugs than I do to take a look at any wood that you want to use before you actually take it inside of your house.
