Build the storage box out of 1x12s. I recommend using 3/4″ pocket holes and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws to secure everything, hiding pocket holes on insides. You can alternatively use 2″ self tapping screws or 2″ brad nails and glue.
STEP 2
Make sure project is square before this step.
Attach 1×2 front face frame boards with 1-1/4″ brad nails and glue.
NOTE: To minimize front tipping, also attach 1x2s at top back for securing media center center to wall.
STEP 3
Set circular saw blade depth to about 1/4″. Mark lines in 1×12 door faces. Make false cuts in 1x12s. TIP: Clamping a straight guide to the 1×12 will help you cut straighter.
Attach hardware, hinges and magnetic clasps.
Attach caster wheels to base.
An optional 1/4″ back can be added, nail on with 3/4″ brad nails and wood glue.
