#98 - Low Entertainment Center Pt. 2

If there is one major negative aspect to working with plywood and other sheetgoods, its the fact that we have to deal with the ugly exposed edges. But with a little know-how and some strips of wood, you can dress up the edges so that only a trained eye can tell that the board is not completely made of solid wood.

A few of the topics covered in this part: * Edge-banding options. * Sources for solid wood edge-banding. * Attaching edgbanding to sheetgoods and trimming it flush with the surface. * Cutting grooves and rabbets for the back panels with a router and edge guide. * Using an inexpensive miter box.

**New Plan**
If you are interested, we now have a digital plan available for this project. The set includes a PDF plan/cutlist and a full-featured Sketchup file. The download is available in the Wood Whisperer Store.

Can you tell me what kind of plywood that is? Thx

[TheWoodWhisperer]

@steveyodog Its actually just an MDF core. I usually don't use the stuff but it was all I could find with the walnut veneer I wanted at that time.

Hola, soy Henry de Venezuela, me gustan muchos tus videos y estoy aprendiendo de ellos, no soy profesional de la madera pero me he comprado algunas herramienta y pronto fabricare mi primer proyecto, no se como me quedaran pero tratare de hacerlo bien, desde Venezuela te saludo.

P/D: ¿Quien es la chica de la foto que esta en el casillero?

[TheWoodWhisperer]

@rohenwi I would guess that's my wife. I don't think we've ever had any other girl on the show. :)
