Floating TV stand 71 in

A low, wide TV stand of 71 in to hang on the wall: a drawer block, an open bay for your gear and a door cabinet.

Schematic front view of the layout. The sizes in the cut list are what counts.

The open center column gives your media player airflow and a clear line to the remote; the drawers and the door keep the rest out of sight. Wall-mounting gives a floating look and makes vacuuming easy.

What makes this design special

Three columns side by side with different fronts: drawers, open and a door. Change the order or add a column for a wider wall.

These are the cut sizes the cabinet designer computes (edge banding and kerf included). For drawers and doors, always check the clearance your own slides and hinges need.

Open this project in the cabinet designer with the button below. You see the cabinet in 2D right away and can change the sizes, material and layout parametrically; the panel sizes and the cutting plan follow along. Rather save it yourself?

Material and sheets needed

Based on the panel sizes above, this project takes about 2 sheets of 3/4 in (18 mm) plywood and 1 sheet of 1/4 in (6 mm) plywood (back panel). Prices vary by country and store, so check your local supplier; the tool works out the exact number of sheets and can show real prices from its material library.
