Made a little progress, got the euro hinges/ keyboard tray on slides installed and most of the hardware I needed to finish the woodwork phase.
Just need to finish installing the tv mount crossmember and get the control panel secured with hand knobs and hinges, then slot for t-molding and then I can move on to paint.


My tv came with 4 plastic button washer looking things...they are not in the manual anywhere....no clue what they are for? wall mount bushings is what I thought but they dont seem to fit very good over the vesa holes.

Also when I hooked the tv up (samsung un32j5003af) to my pc I used hdmi , the picture looked fantastic but changed the input name to pc as Ive always read is a good thing to do to avoid screenfit issues etc.... but now the color looks a little washed out.
How do you guys set your picture settings? just by eye?

mocked the tv up and got the tv mount installed.

Feeling defeated right now.... I screwed up my t molding slotting  :banghead:  :badmood:  :banghead:

The cheap routers collet loosened on me , then On the cab I started it while the bit was on the wood and ripped the corner out.
I been working overtime all week and was tired and didnt have patience and just wanted to get the slotting done... I should of waited.

I thought about filling it with wood filler and trying again tomorrow but figured the filler would just probably chip out as soon as I try to slot it.

So.....how bad is this? think that 8" spot on the CP will cause problems?

Whats the best adhesive to use in these areas when applying t-molding?
Bloinkxp:
So with wood putty/filler make sure you pack it in.  That will ensure there are no bubbles which will make it doesn't pop when cutting it out again.  It will be fine.

Love the look of it.
BGoulette:
Yeah, once the filler is in there and hardened, it should route just fine. Looking good!
