We rebuilt some outdated shelving to make a custom built-in entertainment center. This project was sponsored by LG. LG CineBeam : bit.ly/2NOzisQ LG CineBeam on Amazon: geni.us/ZAcqaHy

MUSIC: share.epidemicsound.com/iltms
Like most of our house, this feature was built around the super-advanced technology available in 1983. When we moved in, the shelves were too low to fit my flat tv, so I had to crudely knock out some space. The initial construction was also pretty dated, with routed face frames and thin, inset doors that needed to be rebuilt.
I got out some hammers and ripped out the old pieces so that I could get an accurate layout of the space. Once I got the dimensions of the empty area, Josh made a 3d model of the new entertainment center. We took this model and made a materials and cut list and got to work.
One mistake I see beginning DIYers make is that they try to make a piece of furniture inside an existing space. Meaning, they build a piece that should be square and plumb inside a space that is neither of those things. So, for this project, we are going to build everything in sections in the workshop and assemble them together in the empty space. This drop-in technique may leave spaces on the outsides of your pieces, but those can be covered up by trim or caulking.
Josh modeled the lower cabinets to fit a special project that LG sent me. Our plan is to store the projector in the cabinets and bring it out when watching a movie on the big screen. The rest of the cabinets will have a shelf or will hold our gaming systems. Josh modeled the doors to accommodate frameless, soft-close concealed hinges. If you are making new cabinet doors, make sure you plan the sizes based on the type of hinges you plan on using. We use a concealed-hinge jig to drill all of the holes for the hinges that we'll attach later.
On top of the cabinets there will be a long counter top made of two shorter pieces. On top of the counter there will be two separate sections of shelving; the "adjustable" and the "TV" sections. We made these two towers independent so we could maximize our plywood usage and to make it easier to move up the stairs to the living room.
The "adjustable" section is made of three uprights joined by a top with 6 floating shelves within. The uprights were drilled using a shelf-pin jig so that we could move the two columns of three shelves around to fit different size books or pictures. The "TV" section will have a longer area to house our TV and sound bar and a separate shelf above it for nick knacks. There is another piece behind the TV that will hide any wires that area hung behind it. The two sections will be screwed together and secured to the insides of the walls.
I used a paint sprayer to cover all of the sections in some primer and white paint. Once dried, we screwed the cabinets together and filled the gaps on the sides with thin plywood strips. We set the taller structures onto the counter top and secured them together and into the walls. Now that the casework is firmly in place, I cut some pine 1x4s into 1-1/2" face frame strips.
I purchased a retractable screen with a remote on Amazon that matched the opening perfectly. Thy are available in different lengths so you can chose the right one for your space. To mount it, I added a long strip of wood to the top of the built-ins so that the screen could be hidden away behind a piece of the existing wall. I ran the power cable behind the TV area along with the rest of the hidden cables and plugged everything in to an existing power outlet.
When fully extended, the screen stops 1/4" above the counter top, it was perfect! The remote works great even though the screen is slightly hidden away. The whole unit can go from display shelves to cinematic movie screen in about 30 seconds, it's so cool. When we want to watch a big move, I can pull the new projector out of its cabinet and set it on the floor. It boots up quickly and the beautiful picture is perfectly displayed on the screen. When we're done, just put the projector away and the screen retracts up into its hiding place with the push of a button.

Hi Bob, the most important thing you probably teach me is how much planning can make the rest of the project go smoother. But also that sometimes when executing something you realize that your plan isn't going to work, and that an alternative method is not failure.

I had a great teacher, as a kid getting into making stuff. My dad was inventive, encouraging and always there to show me how to use the tools in his shop. We remodeled houses and built furniture, worked on cars and motorcycles and basically just lived a life of do-it-yourself. I was a “maker” before I ever discovered the maker-verse online. I’m 50 now and dad is unable to do any of this stuff anymore. Too many years working a back-breaking job and not doing it the ‘safety-first’ way every day took its toll on his health. But I have a shop of my own, now and I love getting in there on the weekends and any time I can to...well...make stuff. I learn from everybody, but it’s not ‘how-to’, so much as it’s ‘this is my way’. Your way is usually pretty alright, Bob. I’m a fan.

This is the way he figured it out!..." So really, thanks! :D

I always get a lot of value from seeing how you use the existing space. Like with the attic closet or how you tucked the upper shelves back so the projector screen has room to exist out of sight. I know those things are hard to reproduce, but seeing you work with a room like this helps my brain get ideas for our own spaces without tearing out walls and ceilings. - Davis

I'm an AV Tech and for me, I would much rather watch mundane things like the News/Weather on a TV, than burn out a projector. Save projector for grand events like sporting finals and movies. The only thing I have an issue with on built ins, is that you are now bound by a size of TV. What if in a year or so, a good 80" is on sale for a great price? Oh you can't buy it because it won't fit. I always prefer a flat section for TVs for this very reason. Also, why cut out that timber sheet to slide the TV into? Why not leave it a solid sheet and 'wall mount' the TV. Most (if not all) larger TVs have wall mount options on the back. Brackets cost anywhere from $50 to $100......

Great tip on screwing down blocks instead of corner clamping for the pocket holes! This is something that I'm dealing with right now making drawers and that will come in handy.

The 1x material screwed down to the bench for a 90 was a great idea. I’m about to do some built-ins for my den and the ceiling is sloped down (as opposed to being 90 degrees to all 4 walls) and the face frames to hide gaps is fantastic. Will definitely be using that trick!

Awesome video. I never thought about having both viewing options. I've always thought of having a room for a projector or TV but this incorporation of both is genius.

Bob that turned out fantastic 👌👍. You guys did a great job. I can't say as if I've learned something new, but I did get a refresher on the different ways to make a squaring jig. Thanks for sharing and God bless

That simple jig you made to make nice square joins was cool - I'm definitely going to use that idea. Thx! ☺

I’m new at this and have only a few clamps. The trick to hold the 90 degree angle by drilling boards into the work surface blew my mind. Thanks!!

Awesome Carpentry. Tons on amateur mistakes on the AV setup. But most people will love it and never know the difference. Thanks for the quality workmanship.

I liked the shadow box thing you did. I always learn a lot about furniture making and home renovations from your channel. I’d love to see more woodworking projects, car projects, electronics projects

Hi Bob! I realized I can actually build something instead of just watch others doing. I love your videos and the way you solve the problems as they appear. Those edges in the shelves are an amazing solution. I'll definitely use it in my house.

I really liked the tip for getting the long piece flush. I always used a bunch of clamps that were frustrating and took a while. Keep up the great videos

The offset shelf face it allow for overlap on the one side is a wonderful thought I haven't seen, looking to do book shelves soon and that may make the design! As always, awesome project & great video!

Hi Bob, i really enjoyed the video, the part with de woods stripes was quite a discovery for me, and also it makes it look thicker and robust. Thanks awesome video as ever

Very nice and very impressed. Also as far as something new to learn that’ll be don’t worry about making sure everything is perfect and improvise as you go along.
