DIY: robust TV cabinet made of OSB, by Jeroen

Description

I have a TV cabinet made of OSB wood. With felt doors, so that sound and infrared can pass through. It is tailor-made so that my subwoofer and center speaker fit exactly. There is also a light strip (Phillips Hue) underneath and ventilation grilles.

Custom TV cabinet

Started from top to bottom. First attached the sides, center boards and back with dowels and glue at the top. Cut-outs in the back made for the cabinet hanging system. Extension cords pre-mounted. And finally screwed on the bottom. In the bottom I made recesses for ventilation grilles and the inlet for the subwoofer. Cable ducts (200x15x15) for the light strip mounted on it. And drawer guides with shelf for the receiver (so you can easily reach the cables) and finally the felt doors. I used the felt doors in two sizes, 51.7 x 32.2 and 68.8 x 32.2. Because I found out that the wall on which I wanted to hang the cupboard was not straight, I chose to also mount two legs under the cupboard. This for extra strength and safety.
