Lol @ pesos. Kent, it is my guess that the mirror + velvet + engraving will cost more than the wood itself.

Mike, a large entertainment center would cost more to ship than it would to build. If you went with a very nice oak plywood, cost would be less than $130 in wood material. Perhaps only $65 if it only needed one sheet. That stuff is really, really heavy ... not to mention shipping on an oversize item (freight) all the way down south.

Kent should have some nice mirror scraps you could use.

actually..i will have a few pieces of acrylic mirror left over steve, ryan is right!

it's 1/8" thick...

whatcha think?

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Chevy350TPI 12]

1/8" is ideal ... can flush it right into the top.

Nick wants a 12" x 10" mirror on his lid, I don't know if you want the same or not.

[mrray13 30]

lemme get the pieces cut out for ryan...and i'll see if i can't send u the rest!!!

i want the same as nick..

but how come noone will tell me the price??

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Yeah, see what you have left over from that acrylic.

I'll probably take a trip to WalMart to see what they have there before I go take a trip to a local glass place and have them cut it.

Nick and I haven't even decided on a price yet. I don't imagine the wood being more than 20-40 bucks per box, 5 bucks per box velvet, 5 or so bucks for the engraved plate. I'll be hunting down a nice red stain for you.

Or something similar.

Cherry wood look really nice, but that's five times the price of pine. At least five times.

[mrray13 30]

alrighty...i'll get ryan's pieces cut..and get ahold of u to get this acrylic shipped to ya!

if u want it..

and thanks!

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Sounds good. Whenever you get around to it.

Sorry for being absent all weekend.

I was figuring you'd let me know a price that you'd like. I also didn't know if you wanted them posted a la public. I 'spose I'll pm yah.

so what ur sayin steve is it would probably be cheaper to buy it locally huh? heh.....ohh well.....i still say u need to move down here w/ ur wife's family so i could come and pick the stuff up and jus imagine all the hell we could raise if u lived in tulsa.......

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Yeah Mike ... you and I would have a good time, that's for sure.

And my guess is that it would be cheaper to get locally. Shipping alone would be more than the cost of the piece itself ... my guess.
