How to build an entire cabinet for $882.70
« on: July 28, 2004, 12:48:34 pm »
OK, here's a "so far" price list for everything I've bought. The prices with ? on them are close as I haven't bought them, or bob roberts no longer carries them and I forgot how much I paid :)
Obviously, the $230 TV was by FAR the biggest cost on this. without the TV, the total cost is $652.70


All prices include shipping if ordered online.

$15.00 - 2

I would love to see a picture.  Are you happy with the TV setup?

heh, Actually, I haven't built it yet. I have everything bought over the past year. I just started the actual building process about a week ago and am about to finish the control panel today or tomorrow. Then I have to wait for some REASONABLE weather sometime this week to get the wood for the cabinet.

The TV was based on sofaking, other members, and the dimensions I needed anyways.

Show me the final price once you've put everything together.

You won't regret it -- the TV is perfect.  Let me know what you do for a bezel... mine is still a work in progress but I'll show you my final result very soon :)
