I have been blessed with a very handy and skilled father-in-law who has pretty much remodeled / handcrafted my whole townhouse. His latest creation for me is a media cabinet which is styles to look like a set of drawers, but the top is on a piano hinge and opens up like a toybox to a space where I have a charging station for my my cellphones, PS3 controllers etc. I was also stoked to find that my surround speakers fit in there as well. (I have to set them up each time I want to use them due to lack of WAF)

The drawers are all on ball bearing slides so they glide like butter! The top two drawers have dividers that are sized for 5 columns of DVD sleeves. The drawers are perfectly sized to also hold 4 vertical columns of HD cases or 2 horizontal columns. Each drawer can hold 100+ HD cases, so I am covered with my 400+ DVD's in one drawer and up to 300+ BLU/HD movies in the other 3 drawers.

I plan on eventually upgrading the handles to some movie themed pulls, but the brushed nickel ones will do fine for now.

It's a loft area that sits between two bedrooms. Unfortunately, its the only room I have in my townhouse that is square enough for a HT setup. It's only about 6 feet wide and 10 feet deep. It's my "office" as my PC is hooked up to my 42" LCD.
:D

Cool storage cabinet! It looks like it is the perfect size!!!!

I think you are the first person that I have seen that has a motivational poster in his house. :D

Thanks for the compliment! I was going to send this link to my F-I-L when I got some feedback....although after you made fun of the insirational poster that they gave my wife for her graduation I don't know if I can!
:D

Akkk! Sorry dude. I can go edit my post if you want me to. :)

What is the third photo that looks like something is alphabetized? Are those CDs?

It's my DVD collection. With over 400 DVD's and very limited space I decided to put them all in protective sleeves. Although I miss the artwork, it's easier to keep track of all of them, plus some of the cases etc. were 10 years old and were starting to show thier wear.

On the other hand maybe you should show him the link. Then the next generation might get a cooler graduation present. :D

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Very nice! Terrific wood working skills.
