CUSTOM recessed entertainment center. built with @maximowood thermally modified Ayous!
What happens here
Assemble the wider panels for the entertainment center by joining the prepared planks. Apply a generous bead of wood glue along the edges where the planks will meet. Align the edges, then use pipe clamps to bring the pieces tightly together, ensuring a strong bond. While clamped, drive pocket screws into the pre-drilled pocket holes using a cordless drill to further secure the joint. Wipe away any excess glue squeeze-out with a damp cloth.
Goal: Create wide, stable panels
