CUSTOM recessed entertainment center. built with @maximowood thermally modified Ayous!

What happens here

With the entertainment center fully assembled, carefully lift and maneuver the unit into its prepared recessed opening in the wall. Ensure it fits snugly and is level. Secure the unit permanently to the wall studs using long wood screws, driving them through the frame of the entertainment center into the studs. Counter-sink screw heads and fill with wood putty for a seamless finish, or place them in inconspicuous locations. The final result should be a flush, integrated appearance.

Goal: Integrate the unit seamlessly into the wall
