Book Overview

Build Your Own Entertainment Centers, first published in 1997 by Popular Woodworking Books, is a practical project guide by Andrew E. Schultz. The book presents traditional armoire-style designs, classic secretary-style furniture, and roomy three-piece centers. Every project includes dimensions, drawings, and step-by-step construction instructions.

The closing chapters cover plywood carcasses, frame-and-panel and raised panel doors, drawers, hardware, finishing, and material selection. This structure makes it a useful reference for planning and building an entertainment center that fits your space.

What You’ll Discover Inside

• Armoire-style entertainment centers with four design styles that can be adapted to your needs.
• Secretary-style entertainment centers, including a featured Mission-style project.
• Three-piece entertainment centers for extra storage along a wall or in a corner.

Why This Book Matters

Entertainment centers organize electronic equipment while becoming a focal point in a room. This book helps woodworkers build strong, attractive furniture with traditional joinery and finishing skills. It also reflects the practical workshop knowledge published by Popular Woodworking Books during the 1990s.

Readers gain not only project plans but a better understanding of cabinet construction, an essential skill for home woodworking.
