I'm almost done building our corner tv stand. All i have left to do is a few pieces of trim work (most notably at the top where it isnt stained). Maybe 4 more hours and it'll be complete. I'm pretty happy with the design that I made up in my head but frustrated at the color that has turned out on the wood. I picked a stain that appeared dark brown on the can but has turned out with a reddish tinge. I finally realized that because I'm using red oak, the redness is showing up in the color. That's all Home Depot carries so I'm stuck with it. I'll feel better once I get my built in speakers in and tv on the stand and all the trimwork completed. Now we just have to find a paint color for the walls that will compliment the woodwork and our furniture...
