    Maybe you already thought about this but... what about your power strips for the equipment? oh and get a el-cheepo flourescent light for inside you cabinet so late at night when the lights are off and your setting on the couch with that special someone and all of the sudden you think to yourself, "Oh, crap, I didn't top off the tank today!" you can see the water level with out stopping the movie and turning all the lights on...
    True story.

    Nice craftsmanship! Thanx for posting some pics!

    Where you able to get the holes big enough for plumbing your corner overflow. There might be a lot of wood in the way. Everything else looks awesome k+

    Will use a spade bit to do the holes for the plumbing. Thanks for the complements. Also, just came back from HD and Lowes. Top and bottom trim will be a 1x3 w/ routed edges and mitered corners. Have to add a sheet of ply across the bottom to get the height so the trim will fit. Then i will do the fluted trim on the front side edges. Then well do the doors later on...But if anyone can entertain some ideas for the Doors it would be greatly appreciated.............

    Thanx

    The bigger the better! Try and imagine a 6'-2" 225lbs man trying to contort his body to see inside an opening 12"Wx24"H and tighten up that fitting that IS going to leak. Its a very funny image, but in reality my neck still hurts!;)
