grasspuddle:
Haven't built my CP yet, so take this with a grain of salt.

I am going to build the pedestal by itself with 3/4" MDF. I am going to put a single panel of MDF on the top of it. Then the CP will go on top as its own contained box. I will drill 4 holes between them and attach carriage bolts as an easy(ish) connect/disconnect.

I got this idea from the famous Mamestrosity:

He has photos of the pedestal by itself then shows the CP box with the carriage bolts attached. I think you're doing an upright cabinet, but the theory should still work.

Are you planning on moving this thing through doorways a lot?

DNA Dan:
That's an excellent idea! Thanks!

I was thinking of doing my lamination work prior to assembly of the pieces, so I didn't think about adding a piece of wood there. That's great. This will further be strenthened by the face plate below the CP.

I will probably just laminate the interior part, or just the internal edge where the reveal will be. I don't plan on moving this a lot, but I would like options if I NEED to get it moved somewhere.
